Westyre Private Limited ("we," "us," or "our") operates the Sygnificplatform and related Services. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and your rights under applicable law, including the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 ("DPDPA") in India, where it applies.

5. Legal bases (India and global users)
Where the DPDPA applies, we rely on grounds such as: your consent (where required), legitimate uses for specified purposes, and compliance with law. For contractual Services, processing may be necessary to perform our agreement with you. You may withdraw consent for optional processing (e.g. certain marketing) subject to legal exceptions.
If you are in other jurisdictions (e.g. EEA), we also aim to respect applicable rights such as under the GDPR, including where data is transferred with appropriate safeguards.
6. Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies for authentication, preferences, analytics, and security. You can control cookies through your browser; disabling them may limit some features.
7. Sharing of information
We do not sell your personal data. We may share it only as needed:
- Service providers — hosting, payments, email, analytics, under confidentiality and data-processing terms
- Employers / recruiters — when you apply, opt in, or instruct us to share your profile
- Legal — if required by competent authorities or to protect rights and safety
- Business transfers — in a merger or acquisition, with continued protection of personal data
8. Security
We use administrative, technical, and organisational measures (including encryption in transit, access controls, and vendor reviews). No method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure; you use the Services at your own risk within reason.
9. Retention
We retain data only as long as needed for the purposes above, legal obligations (e.g. tax and accounting under Indian law), and dispute resolution. Typical ranges: account data for the life of the relationship plus a limited period thereafter; billing records as required by law; logs on a rolling basis. You may request erasure subject to exceptions.
10. Your rights
Depending on applicable law, you may request access, correction, updating, or erasure of your personal data; restrict or object to certain processing; and receive a portable copy where feasible. Under the DPDPA, you may also have rights regarding nomination and grievance redressal. Marketing opt-out: use unsubscribe links or contact us below.
To exercise rights, email privacy@withsygnific.com. We may verify your identity before responding, typically within thirty (30) days or as required by law.
11. Cross-border transfers
Data may be processed in India and, where we use global cloud or tool providers, in other countries. Where the DPDPA applies, we will comply with rules for transfers outside India (including notified territories or approved mechanisms as the law evolves).
12. Children's privacy
Services are intended for users who are at least eighteen (18) years old. We do not knowingly collect data from children. Contact us if you believe a minor's data was provided in error.
13. Marketing preferences
With your consent or as permitted by law, we may send product updates or promotional messages. You may opt out at any time via unsubscribe links or by emailing privacy@withsygnific.com.
14. Breach notification
If we become aware of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights, we will take remedial steps and notify affected users and authorities as required by applicable law, including DPDPA timelines where they apply.
15. Third-party links
Our Platform may link to LinkedIn, payment pages, or other sites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices—review their policies before sharing data.
16. Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy. We will post the new version here and update the "Last updated" date. Where required, we will provide additional notice. Continued use after changes may constitute acceptance where permitted by law.
