This policy explains how Equityscreen ("we") processes your personal data as a Data Fiduciary under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.
Your email address and a securely hashed password; your saved screens, watchlist, alert and email settings; usage counts for daily limits; messages you send us; and payment records (order ID, plan, amount, date). Card, UPI and bank details are handled by Razorpay and never reach our servers.
By creating an account you consent to us using this data only to run your account, show your saved work, send emails you asked for (sign-in codes, morning digests, watchlist alerts), process payments, enforce fair-use limits and keep the service secure. You can withdraw consent at any time by deleting your account.
When you ask for an AI analysis, the stock's public financial data and your question are sent to our AI provider to write the reply. Your email and personal details are not sent.
We do not sell your data. We share it only with service providers needed to run the service (hosting, email delivery, payments, AI), or when required by law.
We use one essential sign-in cookie to keep you signed in. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.
We keep your account data while your account is active and delete it within 30 days of a deletion request. Payment records are kept for 8 years as required by Indian tax law.
Data is stored on secure servers with encrypted connections. Passwords are hashed and never stored in plain text. If a breach affecting you occurs, we will inform you and the authorities as the law requires.
You may ask to access a summary of your data, correct it, delete it, or nominate someone to act for you, and you may raise a grievance. Send requests through the Contact page (equityscreen /legal/contact), choosing "My data / privacy request". Morning emails and alerts can be stopped any time using the link in each email.
The service is not meant for anyone under 18 and we do not knowingly collect their data.
In line with the Information Technology Act, 2000, the Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules, 2020 and the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, Equityscreen has a Grievance Officer who can be reached through the Contact page (equityscreen /legal/contact). Raise a complaint choosing "Complaint (grievance)". We acknowledge complaints within 48 hours and aim to resolve them within one month.
If you are not satisfied with our response, you may complain to the Data Protection Board of India.
If we change this policy we will update this page and the date below.
