09Privacy Policy

Your information, handled with care.

This policy explains what information Shantha Faculty Assist receives, how we use it, and the choices you have. It applies to this website, shanthafacultyassist.com, and to the messages you send us. Last updated 19 September 2026.

What this website collects

Very little. The website has no accounts, no sign-up, no comment boxes and no forms that send data to us. It does not set cookies and does not use analytics or advertising trackers. Nothing you type on the site is stored by the site.

Like any website, it is delivered by a hosting server that may keep standard access logs, such as the IP address, the page requested, the time, and the browser used, for security and troubleshooting. We do not use these logs to identify or profile visitors.

Information you send us

When you contact us on WhatsApp, by email or by phone, we receive what you choose to share: typically your name, designation, institution, contact details, and any brochure, advertisement, bio or photograph you attach. We use it only for the purpose you sent it for:

  • Listing an event or a vacancy: to verify the event or vacancy with the institution and to publish the listing on the Events or Jobs page.
  • Resource-person listing: to prepare your profile and to connect you with institutions that ask for a speaker in your field.
  • General enquiries: to reply to you.

We do not sell your information, and we do not add you to marketing lists.

What we publish

Event and vacancy listings contain the details an organiser or institution has made public in its brochure or advertisement, such as titles, dates, fees, official email IDs and registration links. Brochures and advertisements themselves are not published; they are used only to verify and fill in the listing.

Resource-person profiles are published only with the consent of the person concerned, and only with the details they have agreed to share.

Verification emails

Before an event or vacancy is listed, we email the institution at its official address to confirm that the listing is genuine. That email contains only the details of the listing being checked.

Third-party services

  • WhatsApp: messages you send us on WhatsApp are handled under WhatsApp's own terms and privacy policy.
  • Email: our mailbox is provided by Google (Gmail), so emails you send us are stored there.
  • Google Fonts: the website loads its typeface from Google Fonts. When a page loads, your browser requests the font files from Google, which may record your IP address as part of serving them.
  • Links to other websites: registration forms, institution websites and Shantha Hi Tech are run by their owners under their own policies.

How long we keep information

We keep the details of a listing for as long as it is published, plus a reasonable period afterwards in case of queries. Resource-person profiles are kept for as long as you wish to be listed. Messages are kept in our WhatsApp and email accounts in the ordinary course of business.

Your choices

You can ask us at any time to correct or remove a listing or profile that concerns you, or to delete the messages and attachments you have sent us. Write to email or message us on WhatsApp at +91 7010220545, and we will act on the request promptly.

Children

This website is intended for faculty, research scholars and institutions. It is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.

Changes to this policy

If we change how we handle information, we will update this page and the date at the top. Continued use of the website after a change means you accept the updated policy.
