• Service providers who help us operate — for example, our contact form provider (Formspree), website hosting (Netlify), and payment processors used for bookings.
• Partner venues and co-teachers involved in a specific retreat or training you've booked, where necessary to coordinate your stay (for example, sharing your name and dates with our retreat venue in Rishikesh).

5. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

6. Data Retention

We keep personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy — for example, for the duration of your relationship with us plus a reasonable period afterwards for accounting and legal purposes — after which it is deleted or anonymised.

7. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to third-party sites, such as Instagram, YouTube, or our booking and payment partners. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third parties, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies separately.
