We collect information you give us directly when you fill in a form on our website or on Facebook or Instagram (including Meta lead forms), message us on Instagram, WhatsApp or by email, or book or attend a consultation.
Contact details: name, phone or WhatsApp number, email address, city and country of residence
Information about your matter, including the type of help you need, whether proceedings have been filed, and your preferred call times
Anything else you choose to share with us during a conversation or consultation
We also collect limited technical information when you visit our website, such as browser type and pages visited, through basic analytics tools. We do not ask for sensitive details through ads or forms beyond what is needed to understand your enquiry. Please do not send identity documents or financial records until we ask for them as part of an engagement.
3. How we use your information
We use your information only to respond to your enquiry and arrange a consultation, understand your situation so we can advise on your options, provide legal or counselling services if you engage us, send you information you have asked for, and meet our legal and professional obligations. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for unrelated marketing without your consent.
4. Legal basis (for people in the UK and EU)
We process your information with your consent when you submit a form or contact us, to take steps at your request before entering into an engagement with us, and to comply with legal obligations. You can withdraw your consent at any time by emailing hello@aaryacounsel.com.
5. Confidentiality
Everything you share with us is treated as strictly confidential. Information shared during a consultation or engagement is also protected by our professional duties of confidentiality as advocates and counsellors.
6. Who we share information with
We share information only with service providers that help us operate, such as Meta (Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp), Google Workspace (email and document storage), and our website host. They process data on our behalf and under their own security standards. We also share information with courts, authorities or other parties only where required for your matter with your instructions, or where required by law. We never share your information with other law firms, advertisers or data brokers.
7. International transfers
We are based in India. If you contact us from the UK or elsewhere, your information will be processed in India and by our service providers, who may store data in other countries. We take reasonable steps to make sure your information is protected wherever it is processed.
8. How long we keep information
Enquiries that do not become engagements: up to 12 months, then deleted. Client files: for as long as needed for the matter and as required by law and professional rules.
9. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, correct inaccurate information, ask us to delete your information, withdraw your consent, object to or restrict how we use your information, or complain to a data protection authority. In the UK, this is the Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk). In India, it is the Data Protection Board of India. To exercise any of these rights, email hello@aaryacounsel.com. We will respond within 30 days.
