How Heal The World Global Innovation Hub Foundation collects, uses and protects your information across this website.
This Privacy Policy describes how Heal The World Global Innovation Hub Foundation (the “Foundation”, “We”, “Us” or “Our”) — a Section 8 not-for-profit company registered under the Companies Act, 2013, with the Registrar of Companies (ROC), Maharashtra — collects, uses and discloses information when you use this website (the “Site”), and explains your rights regarding that information.
By using this Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
Across our Contact, Incubation Application, Careers, Fellowship and Donation forms, we may ask you to provide information such as:
Submitting any of our forms is entirely optional. If you choose not to provide certain information, we may be unable to respond to your enquiry, application or donation.
When you submit a form on this Site, the information is sent directly to our team by email and used solely to respond to your enquiry, application, registration or donation, and to keep an internal record of that correspondence. It is not stored in any public-facing database on our servers.
Donations made through this Site are processed by Razorpay, a licensed third-party payment gateway. When you choose to donate, your name, email and phone number are passed to Razorpay's secure checkout to prefill the payment form and issue you a receipt; your card, UPI or banking details are entered directly into Razorpay's own secure interface and are never seen, collected or stored by us. Razorpay's handling of your payment information is governed by Razorpay's own privacy policy and security standards. We may also receive a payment confirmation (amount, purpose and a payment reference ID) from Razorpay for our internal donation records.
We may automatically collect standard Usage Data when you visit the Site, such as your device's IP address, browser type and version, the pages you visit, and the time and date of your visit. This is common to virtually all websites and is used only to understand how the Site is used and to keep it secure.
This Site loads fonts from Google Fonts and the Razorpay checkout script during payment, both of which may set minimal technical cookies as part of their normal operation. See our Cookies Policy for details.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
We retain personal information submitted through our forms only for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your enquiry, process your application, maintain donation and audit records, and comply with our legal and accounting obligations as a registered Section 8 company.
We may disclose your personal information if required to do so by law, in response to valid requests by public authorities (including the Registrar of Companies or income-tax authorities in connection with our not-for-profit status), or where we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights or the safety of users or the public.
We take reasonable, industry-standard steps to protect the information you share with us, and rely on Razorpay's PCI-DSS compliant infrastructure for all payment processing. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
This Site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 13 through our forms. Where our programs (such as the Student Incubation Program or Global Classrooms) involve minors, participation and any related data collection is coordinated directly with schools and parents/guardians, outside of this Site's forms.
Our Site contains links to third-party websites, including our Razorpay payment page (razorpay.me) and social platforms, which are not operated by us. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of every site you visit.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post any changes on this page and update the “Last updated” date above.
