Privacy policy

• No account, no login, no email required to use anything on this site.
• No personal data is sent to us. There is no server-side database and no way to submit personal information to us other than sending an email.
• Everything you type into a tool — a name, a message, a budget, a checklist — stays in your browser.
• Nothing you do on this site is profiled, sold, or shared with a data broker, because we have nothing to share.
• Third-party advertising is off by default. If it is switched on, the ad network — not we — may set its own cookies, and this policy explains that.

Nothing that identifies you. The site is a set of static pages served from a content delivery network. There is no application server, no database and no login system, so there is no place for personal data to be stored even if we wanted to.

If you email us, we have the contents of that email and your email address. That is the only personal data this project ever holds, and it is held in an email inbox for as long as it is useful for answering you.

Several tools remember things so they are useful when you come back. All of it is stored in your own browser’s localStorage and none of it is ever transmitted. You can clear it at any time by clearing site data for this domain.

• th.interactions.v1 — anonymous counts of which pages and items you opened, used only to reorder the trending list on your own device.
• th.favourites.v1 — the festivals you saved, so they are still saved next visit.
• th.recent.v1 — a short list of festivals you recently viewed.
• th.reminders.v1 — reminder preferences you set, which are used to show a nudge on this device. No notification is sent to us or by us.
• th.checklist.* — the tick state of a shopping or puja checklist.

None of these contain a user id, an email address, or anything you typed into a generator. The name you enter for a greeting card is used to draw the card and then discarded when the page is closed.

By default this site sets no cookies of its own for tracking, and none for advertising, because no advertising provider and no analytics provider is configured.

If a hosting provider, advertising network or analytics provider is configured, that third party may set its own cookies subject to its own policy. Advertising is off unless deliberately switched on by the site operator. The cookies page lists what applies in each configuration.

By default, the site is built with no analytics provider connected. When an operator connects one — Cloudflare Web Analytics, Umami, Plausible or Simple Analytics are the supported options — the events sent are anonymous and aggregated: which page was opened, which tool was used, which festival was viewed. There is no user id, no cross-site tracking, no fingerprinting and no advertising profile.

Tool inputs are never included in an analytics event. The wish you generated and the budget you entered are never sent anywhere, in any configuration.

• Hosting — the site is served as static files from a CDN. The host’s standard request logs (IP address, user agent, timestamp) exist for security and abuse prevention, as they do on any website.
• Advertising, only if deliberately configured, and only through a provider whose own privacy policy applies to the ad units.
• Marketplace links — links in gift guides go to Amazon.in or Flipkart search pages. Once you follow one, their policy applies. When no affiliate programme is configured, those links carry no tracking parameters at all.

The site is a general-audience information site about festivals and is not directed at children under 13. Because no account can be created and no personal data can be submitted, there is no mechanism by which a child could provide personal data even inadvertently. One component — the gift finder — asks for an age bracket, but only as a product filter; it is not stored or transmitted.

• Clear site data in your browser to remove everything stored locally. The site works fully afterwards.
• Use a content blocker. The site is designed to work completely with advertising and analytics blocked, and no content is gated behind either.
• Read the site with JavaScript disabled. Every festival page, calendar entry, wishes page and policy page renders as static HTML; only the interactive tools need JavaScript, and they degrade to a clear explanation rather than a broken page.

If this policy changes materially — for example, if a new provider is configured that sets cookies — the change is reflected here and the “last updated” date on this page changes with it. Questions about any of this can go to hello@tyoharhub.example.
