Privacy Policy

Effective Date: August 14, 2025

Welcome to Eggrate.org (the “Website”). We value your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use and protect it, and the choices you have regarding your data when you visit Eggrate.org. By using the Website, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Who we are

Eggrate.org is an informational website that aggregates and publishes daily egg prices, market trends, and related poultry‑market information for cities and regions across India. Our content is intended to help consumers, retailers, wholesalers, poultry farmers, and analysts stay informed about local price movements and market conditions. We do not sell eggs or operate as a trading platform. This Privacy Policy governs data collected through our Website and related electronic communications.

2. Information we collect

We collect two types of information: (A) non‑personal information collected automatically, and (B) personal information you voluntarily provide.

A. Non‑Personal Information (automatically collected)

• Device and browser information (device type, operating system, browser name and version).
• IP address and approximate geolocation derived from IP.
• Referring and exit pages, pages viewed, time spent on pages, clicks and other anonymous usage data.
• Technical data such as screen resolution, language settings, and connection information.

B. Personal Information (voluntarily provided)

• Contact information such as name and email address when you use our contact form or send us email.
• Any content you include in messages to us (for example reports of incorrect rates, tips, or feedback).

We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information (such as financial account numbers, government identifiers, or health data). Please do not submit such information through our website forms or support email.

3. How we collect information

We collect information in several ways:

• Automatically when you access the Website via standard server logs and analytics scripts.
• When you voluntarily submit data to us through contact forms or email.
• Through cookies, web beacons, and similar tracking technologies that record your interactions with the Website.

4. Use of information

We use collected information to:

• Provide, operate, and improve the Website and its content, including updating daily egg prices and city pages.
• Analyze usage patterns to improve layout, performance, and the relevance of content.
• Communicate with you to respond to inquiries or feedback.
• Deliver and measure advertising, where applicable, and personalize user experience when permitted.
• Detect and prevent abuse, fraud, and technical issues.

5. Cookies and similar technologies

To provide a functional, personalized experience, Eggrate.org uses cookies, local storage, and pixels. Cookies are small text files placed on your device. We categorize cookies as follows:

• Strictly necessary cookies: Required for basic site functions and security.
• Performance and analytics cookies: Used to understand how visitors use the site and to measure performance.
• Functionality cookies: Remember preferences such as chosen city or language.
• Advertising cookies: Used by third‑party advertising partners (including Google AdSense) to deliver and measure ads and, where allowed, to personalize ads.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings; however, disabling cookies may impact the functionality of the Website. For information about managing Google’s advertising cookies, visit Google Ads Settings.

6. Advertising and third‑party services

Eggrate.org may display advertisements from third‑party networks such as Google AdSense. These third parties may use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements that are relevant to your interests. We do not control the data collection or use practices of these third parties. To learn how your data is used by Google, review Google’s advertising policies.

7. Analytics

We use analytics services (for example, Google Analytics) to understand how the Website is used. Analytics tools collect non‑personal information, which is aggregated to produce reports on user behavior. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics opt‑out browser add‑on.

8. Data retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy or to comply with legal obligations. Non‑personal aggregated analytics data may be retained longer for trend analysis and product improvement.

9. How we share information

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

• With service providers who perform services on our behalf (e.g., hosting providers, analytics providers, email services, and ad networks). These service providers are contractually obligated to protect your data and use it only for the purposes we specify.
• To comply with legal obligations, respond to lawful requests by public authorities, or protect our rights, property, or safety.
• In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, subject to appropriate safeguards and notice to affected users.

10. International transfers

Since Eggrate.org operates internationally, your information may be processed or transferred to jurisdictions outside your country of residence. Where required by law, we implement appropriate safeguards to ensure adequate protection of personal data when transferred internationally.

11. Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information. These measures include HTTPS encryption, secure hosting practices, access controls, and regular security updates. While we strive to protect your data, no security system is impenetrable—transmission of information is at your own risk.

12. Children’s privacy

The Website is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have collected information from a child under 13, please contact us so we can delete the data.

13. Your rights and choices

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights regarding your personal information, such as the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing. To exercise these rights, contact us at the address below. We will verify your identity before responding to requests and may decline requests that are frivolous or require disproportionate effort.

14. Opt‑out and cookie controls

To opt out of personalized advertising, visit Google Ads Settings or use your browser settings to block cookies. For advertising choices on other platforms, consult the privacy controls offered by those services.

15. Links to other websites
