What we collect, why we collect it, how long we keep it, and how to get it removed.

Draft: this page is being reviewed by a qualified legal adviser and may change before it is final.

1. Who is responsible

Connectoi Private Limited is the data fiduciary for personal data collected through connectoi.in. Grievance contact: To be published.

2. What we collect

• Enrolment details: name, email address, phone number, program selected.
• HR Workshop registration: payment contact details, student name, contact number, email, college, stream, year of studying and state.
• Tech Talks registration: name, email, mobile number, college or organisation, stream, year of studying and state, for the talk you choose. “Notify me”: your email and, optionally, your name.
• Participation form: the session you attended, as you type it; your name as it should be printed on your certificate; email, mobile number, college, stream and, optionally, year of study; and the time you gave consent.
• Other forms published on connectoi.in: your name, email and mobile number, your answers to the fields that form shows, the session code if the form asks for one, and the time you submit, which is also when you gave consent to anything the form asks you to tick.
• Friends you add on a form: name, mobile number and college. You supply these with your friends' agreement, and we use them only to invite your friends to Connectoi sessions and programs. On forms built in the VedaLoop Workspace, each friend gets a Connectoi profile holding only those details. On the participation form, until it is built in the Workspace too, they are kept with your registration only.
• Payment records: transaction identifiers from the payment gateway. We do not store card details.
• Programme records: attendance, submitted work and mentor assessments.
• Support correspondence you send us.

3. What we do not do

• This site runs no analytics or advertising trackers. The HR Workshop loads Cashfree's payment script when you continue to checkout.
• We do not sell personal data.
• We do not publish your name, your work or your assessment without your written consent.

4. Why we hold it

To deliver the program you enrolled in, to issue and verify credentials, to meet tax and accounting obligations, and to answer you when you contact us. A form registration is used for what that form is for, as it says on the form, and to issue any certificate it leads to; the friends you add on a form are contacted only about Connectoi sessions and programs.

5. How long we keep it

Credential records are retained so that an issued ID stays verifiable: for as long as the credential remains verifiable. A form registration, including the participation form, that a certificate is issued from is part of that credential record. Financial records are retained as required by Indian tax law. Everything else, including the details of friends you refer: To be published.

6. Who we share it with

The payment gateway (to be confirmed) for processing payment, and the mentor supervising your program, who sees your submitted work. For the HR Workshop, we use Cashfree to process payment, cloud hosting and database providers to store registration records, and our email provider to send your confirmation. These providers process the details needed to deliver those services. We do not otherwise share these records, unless the law requires it.

Participation form registrations, including the friends you refer, are added to a Google Sheet in Connectoi's own Google account through the VedaLoop Workspace, the system Connectoi uses to keep its people records and issue certificates. Google stores that sheet for Connectoi. We do not otherwise share these records, unless the law requires it.

The other forms on connectoi.in are built in the VedaLoop Workspace, and every registration is sent to it, where Connectoi's administrators see it with Connectoi's people records. Connectoi can choose to add a form's registrations, including the friends you add, to Google Sheets in its own Google account through the Workspace; Google stores those sheets for Connectoi. When a form issues certificates with a session code, the Workspace checks the code you enter and, if it is right, issues your certificate as you submit. We do not otherwise share these records, unless the law requires it.

The Enrol and Contact forms do not send anything to us directly. They open a WhatsApp chat to +91 85200 74400with your details typed in, and nothing is sent until you press send. Messages you send that way travel through WhatsApp, a service run by Meta, under WhatsApp's own terms and privacy policy.

7. Your rights

You may ask for a copy of your data, ask for corrections, or ask us to delete it. Deleting your programme record will invalidate any credential ID issued to you, and we will tell you before we do it. Write to To be published.

8. Cookies and browser storage

HR Workshop registration saves your payment attempt and a personal registration token in this browser so you can return after checkout or refresh. Tech Talks remembers, in this browser, which talks you registered for, so the page can show your seat and joining details. While a tab is open, the site keeps the list of published forms shown in its menus and asks for it again after five minutes, so it isn't fetched on every page; nothing about you is in it. Cashfree handles payment details on its own checkout. Joining the WhatsApp community opens WhatsApp under its own terms and privacy policy.

This site sets no cookies. It runs no analytics, no advertising trackers and no third-party scripts.
