Privacy Policy

You do not need to create an account simply to explore Agri Varadhi.

Visitors may browse publicly available listings, search opportunities and use available discovery features without signing in.

When you visit the website, some basic technical information may still be processed to operate, secure and improve the service.

Depending on the features you use, we may receive information such as:

• your name;
• mobile number;
• email address;
• account or profile information;
• location information you choose to provide;
• information contained in your listings;
• photographs you upload;
• products, produce, equipment or services you offer or request;
• messages or information submitted when contacting Agri Varadhi; and
• other information you voluntarily provide through the platform.

When you post an opportunity, information intended to form part of the listing may become visible to other Agri Varadhi users once the listing is approved for publication.

This may include information such as listing type, title, category, description, location, price, quantity, photographs and other information you choose to include.

Users should avoid putting unnecessary sensitive personal information inside listing descriptions or photographs.

Agri Varadhi may provide features that allow users to connect directly regarding genuine agricultural opportunities.

Some contact information may therefore be made available to other users according to the platform's current contact and authentication rules.

Contact information obtained through Agri Varadhi must not be misused for spam, harassment, unrelated marketing or other unauthorized purposes.

Where authentication or verification features are used, Agri Varadhi may process information necessary to authenticate or secure your account, such as your mobile number, email address and authentication-related information.

Passwords should be stored using appropriate security protections rather than as readable passwords.

Agri Varadhi will never ask you to publicly disclose your password or OTP.

Authentication processes may change as we improve the platform's security.

Listings may be reviewed before publication.

For this purpose, authorized Agri Varadhi administrators may access information submitted with a listing, including photographs and other listing details.

A listing may be approved, rejected, removed or returned for correction according to Agri Varadhi's moderation rules.

Images belonging to listings awaiting approval may be stored privately and made available only to authorized systems or administrators until publication.

When you use Agri Varadhi, our systems or infrastructure providers may process technical information necessary to operate and secure the service, which can include:

• IP address;
• browser and device information;
• requested pages;
• date and time of requests;
• technical logs;
• error and security information; and
• similar operational data.

We may use this information for security, troubleshooting, reliability, performance and prevention of misuse.

Agri Varadhi may use cookies or similar browser technologies where necessary for features such as authentication, preferences, security and website operation.

For example, the first-visit Welcome experience may use browser storage to remember that a visitor has already seen or dismissed the Welcome screen.

We may use information reasonably necessary to:

• operate Agri Varadhi;
• create and manage accounts;
• publish and manage listings;
• enable users to discover and connect with opportunities;
• authenticate users;
• moderate listings and protect the community;
• respond to enquiries and support requests;
• prevent fraud, misuse and security threats;
• maintain and improve reliability and performance;
• comply with applicable legal requirements; and
• communicate important service or account information.

Agri Varadhi does not sell users' personal information to advertisers.

Information may be shared where reasonably necessary:

• with other users when information forms part of a public listing or a user intentionally uses a connection or contact feature;
• with service providers that help operate Agri Varadhi, such as hosting, infrastructure, email, authentication or communications providers;
• where required by applicable law, regulation, legal process or a lawful request from an authorized authority;
• to investigate or protect against fraud, abuse, security threats or unlawful activity; or
• as otherwise disclosed to the user with appropriate permission where required.

Service providers should receive only the information reasonably necessary for the services they perform.

Please remember that information deliberately published in a public listing can be viewed by other people.

Do not include information in a public listing that you do not want other users to see.

Removing a listing from Agri Varadhi prevents normal future display through the platform, but information already seen, copied or independently recorded by another user may not always be recoverable by Agri Varadhi.

Agri Varadhi uses reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect information against unauthorized access, misuse, alteration or loss.

Examples may include access controls, authentication, protected administrative functions and separation of private information from publicly accessible content.

However, no internet-based system can guarantee absolute security.

Users should also protect their passwords, OTPs and devices.

We should retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, operation and security of the platform, dispute prevention or resolution, legitimate record keeping, and applicable legal obligations.

Different categories of information may require different retention periods.

Exact internal retention periods will be finalized following legal and operational review.

Users should be able to update appropriate account information and manage their own listings through available Agri Varadhi features.

Users may also contact Agri Varadhi regarding correction or deletion of personal information where applicable.

Some information may need to be retained where required for legitimate security, fraud-prevention, dispute, backup or legal purposes.

Account and data deletion through dedicated self-service features may be added on the web in a future release if not yet available.

Agri Varadhi is intended primarily for people participating in agricultural and related commercial or community activities.

An appropriate minimum-age or account policy will be finalized after legal review.

Agri Varadhi may use third-party infrastructure or communication services to operate parts of the platform.

Those providers may process limited information as necessary to provide their services and may be subject to their own privacy and security obligations.

Where Agri Varadhi links to an external website or service, that external service's privacy practices may apply once the user leaves Agri Varadhi.

We may update this Privacy Policy as Agri Varadhi develops or as legal and operational requirements change.

The latest version should remain available on the website with an updated date.

Material changes should be communicated appropriately where required.

Depending on applicable law and the circumstances, users may have rights relating to access, correction, updating, deletion or handling of their personal information.

Agri Varadhi should provide a reasonable way for users to exercise applicable rights.

Precise statutory wording will be finalized during legal review.

For privacy questions, concerns or requests, users may contact Agri Varadhi through its official support or contact channel.

The final privacy or grievance contact, email, legal operator identity and address will be inserted after legal review.
