1) Who we are & contact

Controller: Ektasi Technology
Registered address: Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India
Phone: +91 88799 52595
Email: info@ektasi.io

When we process personal data for our own purposes (e.g., our website, marketing, hiring, client billing), we act as a data controller. When clients use our products or Ektasi Labs tools (e.g., bulk email/SMS, social automation, ERP modules) and we process personal data on their instructions, we act as a data processor/service provider.

2) Scope & roles

This policy covers our online properties, communications, events, and services. If you are an end user of a client that uses our tools, please also review that client’s privacy notice; they determine the purposes of processing and we follow their instructions under a data processing agreement.

3) Data we collect

  • Identifiers & contact data: name, email, phone/WhatsApp number, company, role, postal address.
  • Professional data: industry, team size, interests, project requirements, RFP details.
  • Usage & device data: pages viewed, links clicked, session duration, referrer, IP address, device/OS/browser, language, approximate location, campaign/UTM parameters.
  • Marketing preferences: email/SMS/WhatsApp opt-in status, unsubscribe signals, cookie consents.
  • Support & communications: messages, tickets, call notes, recordings when permitted.
  • Payment & commercial data: invoicing, purchase history, tax and billing information (processed via payment providers).
  • Client end-user data (processor context): customer/contact records, event logs, content, analytics—only as instructed by the client.

We collect data directly from you (forms, email, phone, WhatsApp, meetings), automatically via cookies/SDKs/pixels, and from third-party sources (e.g., partners, public databases, or social profiles consistent with your settings and the law).

4) How we use data (including marketing)

  • Provide & improve services: operate sites and apps; develop features; ensure reliability and security.
  • Sales & customer success: respond to inquiries; proposals; onboarding; support; training.
  • Marketing & personalization: send newsletters and product updates; show relevant content and ads; measure campaign performance; build audience segments (e.g., by industry or interest) with appropriate consent.
  • Analytics & research: understand usage, A/B test, forecast capacity, optimize funnels.
  • Security & fraud prevention: detect, investigate, and prevent malicious or illegal activity.
  • Legal & compliance: contracts, tax, audits, enforcing terms, and responding to lawful requests.

Marketing communications. We use email, SMS, and WhatsApp for product news, invites, and educational content. You can opt out at any time:
• Email: click “unsubscribe” or email info@ektasi.io with subject “Unsubscribe”.
• SMS/WhatsApp: reply “STOP”. Message and data rates may apply.

Profiling & automated decisions. We may create segments (e.g., by industry, role, engagement) to tailor content. We do not make decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects without human review.

5) Cookies & similar technologies

We use first-party and third-party cookies, pixels, and SDKs to provide core functionality, remember preferences, analyze traffic, and support advertising/remarketing. You can manage consent via our cookie banner (where shown) and browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect site functionality.

  • Strictly necessary: security, session management, load balancing.
  • Preferences: remember settings such as language and region.
  • Analytics: page performance, events, funnels (e.g., GA4, server-side tagging or similar).
  • Advertising/remarketing: measure campaigns and build audiences (e.g., Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight).

6) How we share data

  • Service providers & partners: cloud hosting, analytics, communications, billing, security, and support vendors under contracts that protect your data.
  • Clients (processor role): when we operate tools on a client’s behalf, we process data only for that client and share results back to them per contract.
  • Business transfers: merger, financing, or acquisition events (we will notify where required).
  • Legal: to comply with law or protect rights, safety, and security.

We do not sell personal data. For jurisdictions that define “share” for cross-context behavioral advertising (e.g., California), you can opt out as described in Your rights & choices.

  • Consent (e.g., email/SMS/WhatsApp marketing, non-essential cookies).
  • Contract (to provide requested services, respond to inquiries, or perform agreements).
  • Legitimate interests (to secure our services, understand usage, and market to business contacts in a proportionate way; you may object at any time).
  • Legal obligation (tax, accounting, compliance).
  • Vital/public interests (rare; safety/security scenarios).

8) Your privacy rights & choices

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, update, delete, restrict or object to processing, opt out of targeted advertising, portability, and to withdraw consent. To exercise rights or appeal a decision, email info@ektasi.io with “Privacy Request” in the subject, or call +91 88799 52595. We may verify your identity and respond within the time required by law.
