Privacy Policy

VIDHIGURU is a legal technology platform operated by Mahalaxmi Tech Solutions. This Privacy Policy applies when you access or use our website, account features, AI-assisted legal tools, chat services, and connected storage features.

By using the service, you acknowledge that your information will be handled as described in this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy does not replace any additional notice presented to you when a particular feature is used.

Depending on how you use the service, we may collect the following categories of information:

• Account information: name, email address, profile image, login provider, and account identifiers.
• Profile information: mobile number, date of birth, profession, and other details you choose to provide.
• Service content: questions, prompts, instructions, chat messages, uploaded documents, and other content submitted to the service.
• Technical information: browser type, device information, IP address, session information, timestamps, security events, and diagnostic logs.
• Communications: messages and information you send when requesting support or contacting us.

Please do not submit information that is unnecessary for your request, particularly confidential, privileged, or highly sensitive personal information.

When you choose to connect Google Drive, you are redirected to Google to review and approve the requested access. VIDHIGURU does not receive your Google password.

Subject to the permissions you approve, the service may access the following Google user data:

• Your Google account email address.
• Google account information required to identify the connected account.
• Files and folders created or managed through VIDHIGURU, including files used to store chat history.
• File identifiers and metadata required to locate, retrieve, update, organize, or delete VIDHIGURU-created Drive content.

Google user data is used only to provide connected Google Drive functionality, maintain your saved chat history, verify the connection, organize application-created content, and troubleshoot connection errors.

We do not sell Google user data, use it for advertising, or use it to create advertising profiles.

We do not access unrelated files in your Google Drive unless you separately select or authorize such access through a supported feature.

Access to Google user data is limited to the service, authorized infrastructure providers acting on our behalf, and personnel who require access for security, support, or service operations.

You may disconnect Google Drive through the available account settings or revoke access from your Google Account permissions. Disconnecting access does not automatically delete files already stored in your Google Drive.

We may use information to:

• Create, authenticate, and manage your account.
• Provide legal AI, chat, drafting, research, document, and connected-storage features.
• Save, retrieve, organize, and synchronize your chat history where applicable.
• Personalize the service based on your selected profession, preferences, and previous interactions.
• Protect accounts, prevent fraud, investigate abuse, and maintain platform security.
• Diagnose errors, monitor performance, and improve service reliability.
• Respond to support requests and important service communications.
• Comply with applicable law, lawful requests, and enforce our Terms of Service.

Where applicable law requires a legal basis, we process information based on one or more of the following:

• Performance of our agreement with you and delivery of the service you request.
• Your consent, including when you authorize access to a third-party service.
• Our legitimate interests in operating, securing, and improving the service.
• Compliance with legal and regulatory obligations.

We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited information in the following circumstances:

• Service providers: with infrastructure, hosting, authentication, security, communication, analytics, and AI service providers that process information on our behalf.
• Legal requirements: where disclosure is required by applicable law, court order, legal process, or a valid government request.
• Protection and security: where reasonably necessary to protect users, the public, our rights, or the integrity of the service.
• Business changes: in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, financing, or transfer of business assets, subject to appropriate safeguards.
• With your direction: where you request or authorize a disclosure.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, loss, or misuse.

These measures may include access controls, encrypted communications, protected credentials, session security, monitoring, rate limits, and encryption of sensitive authentication tokens.

No system or transmission method is completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for using a secure device and connection.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, maintain security, resolve disputes, comply with legal obligations, and enforce agreements.

Information stored directly in your Google Drive remains subject to your Google account controls. You may delete those files directly from Google Drive.

You may request deletion of your VIDHIGURU account and associated personal information by contacting vidhigurus@gmail.com.

Some limited records may be retained where required for legal compliance, security, fraud prevention, accounting, or dispute resolution.

Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to:

• Access personal information associated with your account.
• Correct incomplete or inaccurate account information.
• Request deletion of eligible personal information.
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
• Disconnect third-party integrations.
• Object to or restrict certain processing where applicable.
• Request information about how your data is handled.

We may need to verify your identity before processing a privacy request.

The service is not intended for children under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly create accounts for or collect personal information directly from children.

If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us so we can review and take appropriate action.

The service may integrate with or link to third-party services, including Google. Their privacy practices are governed by their own privacy policies and terms.

We encourage you to review the permissions and policies shown by each third-party provider before authorizing an integration.

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in the service, applicable law, security practices, or data handling.

When material changes are made, we may provide notice through the service, by email, or by another appropriate method.

The effective date at the top of this page indicates when this Privacy Policy was last updated.
