DPDPA 2023 · Privacy notice

What we collect, why, and for how long

This notice describes how TrikalDarshi Labs Pvt. Ltd. processes personal data under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. Plain language. No surprises.

1 · What we collect

To accept an order from you, we need three categories of data:

  • Identity — your name, role, and Aadhaar attestation (received via DigiLocker XML — we never see the Aadhaar number in cleartext).
  • Entity — your organisation's legal name, GSTIN, Udyam or LLPIN/CIN, PAN, and signed letterhead authorisation.
  • Transactional — your shipping address, contact phone/email, order history, payment records (handled by Razorpay; we don't store card or UPI VPAs).

2 · Why we collect it

Three lawful purposes:

  1. Verify that the buyer is a legitimate organisation entitled to procure restricted-SKU items under the IT Act 2000, Wireless Telegraphy Act 1933, DGCA Drone Rules 2021 and DPDPA 2023.
  2. Issue a compliant GST invoice, register UIN for any >250 g drones we ship, and maintain audit-grade order records for 8 years per GST Act §35.
  3. Provide post-sale support, RMA handling, and warranty claims.

3 · How long we keep it

  • KYC artefacts (DigiLocker XML, GSTN match record, signed letterhead, PAN) — retained 8 years from order completion per GST Act audit window.
  • Order + invoice records — same 8-year window.
  • WhatsApp / email correspondence — 90 days post order completion, then deleted.
  • Form submissions that don't become orders — 90 days, then deleted.

4 · Who we share it with

We share data only where the law requires or the order requires:

  • Razorpay — payment processing (PCI-DSS compliant, KYC fields are not shared).
  • DigiLocker — Aadhaar attestation flow only.
  • GSTN — GSTIN lookup only.
  • DGCA / WPC / sectoral regulators — for UIN registration on drones above 250 g, as required.
  • Logistics partners (Bluedart, FedEx, India Post for select PSU pin codes) — shipping address only.

We do not sell, license, or rent personal data. Period.

5 · Your rights under DPDPA 2023

You have the right to:

  • Confirmation that we are processing your data + a summary of what we hold.
  • Correction of inaccurate data + completion of incomplete records.
  • Erasure once the legal-retention window (above) has expired.
  • Grievance escalation to our Data Protection Officer, then to the DPDPA Board.
  • Nominate a representative to exercise these rights on your behalf.

6 · How to exercise your rights

Email sales@trikaldarshi-labs.in with the subject "DPDPA request". We respond within 7 calendar days. Our DPO is Sunny Kashyap (founder) — no separate hat for this in our 18-person team.

7 · Cookies + analytics

We run Cloudflare Web Analytics — cookieless, no personal-data export. We don't use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or third-party trackers. The only cookies we set are session cookies for your account state and a td-theme preference cookie that remembers your theme choice locally — that one never leaves your browser.
