Privacy Policy

Legal Street Technologies Private Limited ("Legal Street®", "we", "our") is committed to protecting the privacy of subscribers and visitors. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. It applies to our website legalstreet.in and to the Indian Legal Brief (ILB) newsletter.

1. Information We Collect

We collect only what we need to operate our services:

• Email address — when you subscribe to ILB through the website signup form
• Name and billing details — only if you purchase a paid plan or product; payment card details are collected directly by our payment partner and are not stored on our servers
• Email engagement signals — deliverability data such as opens and clicks, where supported by your mail provider, used to improve content and diagnose delivery issues
• Basic web analytics — aggregate page views and referrers to understand how the site is used; we do not use third-party advertising trackers

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Deliver the ILB newsletter and any paid services you subscribe to
• Send service messages (account confirmations, billing receipts, policy updates)
• Improve our editorial content and the website experience
• Detect, prevent, or respond to fraud, abuse, or security incidents
• Comply with applicable legal obligations

3. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with the categories of service providers we rely on to operate, and only to the extent necessary to provide the services you have requested:

• Email delivery and transactional messaging providers
• Subscription-form and customer-support tools
• Website hosting, content delivery, and security providers
• Analytics providers (aggregate, non-advertising)
• Our payment partner, when you make a paid purchase — it collects and processes your payment details directly under its own privacy policy
• Legal or regulatory authorities, when required by law, court order, or to protect our legal rights

All service providers we engage are bound by contractual confidentiality and data-protection obligations and may only use your information to perform the service for us.

4. Data Retention

We keep subscriber email addresses for as long as your subscription is active. If you unsubscribe, we remove your address from active mailing lists; we may retain a hashed record of the unsubscribe so we do not re-mail you in error. Billing records are retained for the period required under Indian tax and accounting law.

5. Data Security

We work hard to protect your personal information — through access controls, encryption in transit (TLS), and carefully chosen processors bound by confidentiality and data-protection obligations. Security is an adversarial domain, though, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Your Rights

Subject to applicable law, you have the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you
• Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information
• Ask us to delete your information, subject to legal-retention obligations
• Withdraw consent or opt out of marketing communications at any time
• Lodge a complaint with the relevant data-protection authority

To exercise any of these rights, email contact@legalstreet.in. You can also unsubscribe instantly from any ILB email using the link at the bottom of the message.

7. Children

Our services are intended for legal professionals and adult readers. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify subscribers by email or with a prominent notice on the website. The "Last updated" date above indicates the current version.
