Referral Partner Privacy Policy

1. What We Collect About You

• Identity: your name, email address, mobile number, and business name if you provide one.
• Address: address, city or village, district and pincode — used to review your application and understand which area you cover.
• Payout details: your UPI ID, or bank account number, IFSC code and account holder name.
• Account activity: your referral code, the text you set for your own signup page, and the list of registrations attributed to you with their status.
• Technical records: login times and security logs.

We do not ask you for Aadhaar, PAN, or any identity document to join as a partner. If that changes for higher partner tiers, we will tell you before collecting anything.

2. Why We Hold It

• To review and approve your application.
• To calculate what you have earned and to actually pay you.
• To contact you about approval, rejection, payouts and changes to the programme.
• To detect and prevent fake registrations and misuse.
• To meet tax and other statutory record-keeping requirements.

We do not use your partner information for advertising, and we do not sell it.

3. How Payout Details Are Protected

• Your UPI ID and bank details are excluded from ordinary database queries by default — they are not returned when your dashboard loads, when your referral link is checked, or when an admin views the partner list.
• Your dashboard shows only a masked hint, such as the last four digits, so you can recognise which account is on file without the full number being sent to your browser.
• Full details are visible only to team members with the specific permission needed to process payouts.
• We store one payout method at a time. Saving new details replaces the previous ones.

You can change your payout details yourself from your dashboard once logged in. Keep your email account secure: anyone able to receive your login OTP could change where your money is sent.

4. Member Data You Handle

This is the most important part of this policy. As a partner you may see or collect personal information belonging to families — biodata, photographs, phone numbers, sometimes identity documents.

• That information is not yours. Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, MarathiVivah is the data fiduciary and remains answerable for it; you handle it on our behalf and on the terms we set.
• Use it only for arranging matches on MarathiVivah — never for any other purpose, business or personal.
• Never sell it, share it, or pass it to another marriage bureau, matrimony platform or third party.
• Do not build your own store of member data — no member lists on personal phones, notebooks, spreadsheets or WhatsApp groups beyond what an active introduction requires.
• Tell us within 48 hours if member information is lost, leaked, or accessed by anyone who should not have it.
• Destroy any copies you hold when your partnership ends, and confirm to us that you have done so.

If a family asks you to show them their data, correct it, or delete it, send that request to us — we action it centrally so it is applied everywhere. Breaching these obligations ends your partnership under clause 6 of the partner terms, and may carry personal liability for you under the DPDP Act.

5. Who Else Sees Your Information

• Authorised MarathiVivah team members, for application review and payouts.
• Service providers who operate our email and hosting infrastructure, acting only on our instructions.
• Your bank or UPI provider, to the extent needed to send you money.
• Government authorities, courts or police, where we are legally required to disclose, or where we report suspected fraud.

Your business name and the text you write for your own signup page are shown publicly to anyone opening your referral link — that is the point of them. Your email, phone number, address and payout details are never shown publicly.

6. How Long We Keep It

• We keep your information while your partner account is active.
• After your account ends, records of payouts and referrals are kept for as long as tax and accounting law requires — we cannot delete proof of money we paid you.
• Payout details are removed once there are no outstanding or reportable payments that depend on them.

7. Your Rights

• Ask us what partner information we hold about you.
• Ask us to correct anything inaccurate.
• Ask us to close your partner account and delete your information, subject to the retention limits in clause 6.
• Raise a complaint about how we have handled your data.

You can change your business name, signup page text and payout details yourself from your dashboard at any time. For anything else, email us and we will respond within 30 days.

8. Changes and Contact

If this policy changes we will update the date at the top and notify you by email for anything material. For questions, requests or complaints, email Email us. Disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts at Kolhapur, India.
