This Privacy Policy explains how Apna Zila ("we", "our", "us"), operated by Druze Analytics OPC Pvt Ltd, collects, uses and protects information when you visit apnazila.com (the "Website").
Information you provide: When you submit the "List your business" form, we collect the business name, category, area, phone number and any message you provide. This is used only to contact you about your listing request and to publish your listing if approved. If you submit a rating or review, we store the rating, the name you type (optional), your review text and your IP address — the IP is used only to prevent the same device from rating a listing repeatedly.
Collected automatically: Our server may record basic technical information such as IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited and time of visit. This is used in aggregate to understand how the Website is used and to improve it.
We use a cookie to remember your language preference (English, Hindi or Bhojpuri). Third-party services used on the Website, such as advertising and analytics providers, may also set their own cookies. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings.
We may display advertisements served by third-party partners including Google AdSense. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You may opt out of personalised advertising via Google Ads Settings, or visit www.aboutads.info to opt out of some third-party vendors' cookies.
To operate and improve the Website, respond to listing requests, publish and maintain accurate local listings, display relevant content and advertising, and protect the Website from abuse.
We do not sell your personal information. Information may be shared only with service providers who help us operate the Website (hosting, image delivery, analytics), or when required by law. Business listing details (name, phone, address, timings) are published publicly as part of the directory — that is the purpose of a listing.
Images uploaded to the Website are stored and delivered through Cloudinary, a third-party image hosting service.
We take reasonable technical measures to protect the information we hold. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Listings link to third-party services such as Google Maps, WhatsApp, Instagram and YouTube. Once you leave our Website, this Privacy Policy no longer applies.
The Website is a general-audience local directory and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
We may update this Policy from time to time; the revised date will be shown above. For questions, contact contact@apnazila.com.
