Welcome to Om Shanti Om Yoga Ashram ("we," "us," "our"). This page explains what personal information we collect when you visit our website [www.omshantiomyoga.com] or interact with us — whether you're applying for a course, getting in touch, making a payment, or signing up for updates — and how we use and protect that information. By using our website and services, you're agreeing to how we handle your information as described below.
1. What Information We Collect
Information you give us directly
We collect personal details when you:
- Apply or register for a course or retreat (100/200/300/500-hour teacher training, prenatal yoga, retreats, etc.)
- Reach out through a contact form, email, WhatsApp, or phone
- Pay for a course or service
- Sign up for our newsletter or updates
This typically includes things like:
- Your name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Address or country
- Payment details (handled securely by trusted third-party payment providers — we don't store your card information ourselves)
- Information collected automatically
When you browse our website, some technical details are collected automatically, including:
- Your IP address
- Device and browser type
- Which pages you visit and how you navigate the site
- Approximate location
- The site that referred you to us
This helps us understand how people use the site and where we can improve it.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your information to:
- Process your course applications, registrations, and payments
- Keep you updated on your bookings and any relevant service updates
- Make your experience on our website more relevant to you
- Send important notices, like course confirmations or follow-ups
- Improve our website and the courses we offer
- Meet any legal obligations we're required to follow
We never sell or rent your personal information to anyone.
3. Cookies
Our website uses cookies (small files stored on your device) to keep the site running smoothly, understand how visitors use it, and remember your preferences. You're free to turn cookies off in your browser settings, though some parts of the site may not work as well without them.
4. Sharing Information With Others
We work with a small number of trusted service providers to run our operations — for example, for payment processing, email communication, and website analytics. We only share what's necessary for them to do their job, and they're required to keep your information private.
5. Keeping Your Data Safe
We take reasonable precautions to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, misuse, or loss. That said, no method of sending data over the internet is ever 100% secure, so we can't guarantee absolute security.
6. How Long We Keep Your Information
We hold on to your information only for as long as we genuinely need it — either to provide our services or to meet legal and regulatory requirements.
7. Your Rights
You can, at any time:
- Ask what personal data we hold about you
- Ask us to correct anything that's inaccurate
- Request that we delete your data
- Opt out of marketing emails
Just get in touch with us using the details below if you'd like to do any of these.
8. Children's Privacy
Our website isn't intended for children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect personal information from anyone under that age.
9. Updates to This Policy
We may update this policy occasionally to reflect changes in our practices. Whenever we do, we'll post the revised version here along with an updated date.
