Legal Policies - Sanatan Sansaar

Severability & Waiver

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. The failure of Synonyms Online Pvt. Ltd. to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

Cross-Border Data Transfers

Your personal data is primarily stored on servers located in India. In the event that data needs to be transferred outside India, such transfers will only be made to jurisdictions or entities that comply with the DPDP Act, 2023, and applicable data protection standards. We ensure that adequate safeguards are in place to protect your data during any cross-border transfer.

Processing Time

App-based deletions are processed immediately. Email requests are completed within seven to fifteen business days. You will receive confirmation once your account is deleted. Please note that deleted accounts cannot be recovered.

Energisation Disclaimer

Products described as "energised," "abhimantrit," or "blessed" have undergone a ritual or ceremonial process as per traditional Hindu practices. This designation refers solely to the ritual practice performed and does not imply any scientifically verifiable property, enhanced efficacy, or supernatural power. The perceived benefits of such products are entirely subjective and belief-based.

We are not liable for any failure to perform due to events beyond our reasonable control, such as natural disasters, pandemics, war, or government actions. In such cases, we will notify affected users and make reasonable efforts to resume or reschedule services. All timelines and commitments are subject to these conditions.

Payment Methods Accepted

We accept credit cards, debit cards, net banking, UPI, EMI options, and Cash on Delivery (COD). COD is not available for gemstone orders. We do not store your card details on our servers; all payment data is handled securely by our PCI-DSS compliant payment partners. In case of a double payment or overcharge, the excess amount will be refunded to the original payment method, minus any applicable gateway charges, within 7-10 business days.

International Shipping & Customs

For international orders, the buyer is solely responsible for all customs duties, import taxes, and any other levies imposed by the destination country. Sanatan Sansaar is not liable for delays caused by customs clearance or inspection. It is the buyer's responsibility to check local import restrictions and regulations before placing an order for items that may be restricted in their jurisdiction.

Fraud & Misuse

Any attempt to earn Karma Points through fraudulent means — including creating fake accounts, manipulated referrals, exploiting system vulnerabilities, or any other deceptive practices — will result in immediate cancellation of all accumulated points and suspension or permanent termination of the associated account. Synonyms Online Pvt. Ltd. reserves the right to pursue legal action in cases of significant fraud.

Any contributions or payments made for temple seva (services) are used strictly for the stated religious or charitable purposes. We transfer the bulk of these funds directly to the partner temples, priests, or NGOs conducting the seva. A nominal portion may cover our operational costs (like payment processing, platform maintenance), with full accounting.

We do not use seva funds for any personal or unrelated purposes. All financial records are maintained accurately. If required by law, we undergo periodic audits and issue receipts for contributions.

By placing an order for a Kundli report or astrological consultation, you confirm that all birth details (date, time, place, city) provided by you are accurate to the best of your knowledge. You understand that astrology is belief-based and that there are no guaranteed outcomes from the advice or remedies provided. You agree to our stated delivery timelines and acknowledge that once the Kundli or report is delivered, the order is final. No refunds or cancellations are allowed for these personalized digital services.

Vaastu guidance provided is advisory and belief-based. It is not a substitute for professional architectural, engineering, or legal advice. We do not guarantee any specific results from following Vaastu suggestions. Implementation of any Vaastu recommendations is at your own risk and discretion.

We are not responsible for any structural or legal implications that may arise from changes you make to your property based on our advice. Please consult local authorities or professionals before major renovations.

Certain astrological reports, kundli analyses, and spiritual guidance offered on Sanatan Sansaar are generated or assisted by artificial intelligence (AI) models. These AI-generated reports are intended as cultural and spiritual tools only and do not constitute professional advice of any kind. AI systems can make errors, produce inaccurate calculations, or provide incomplete interpretations. AI-generated reports are not a substitute for consultation with a qualified human astrologer or jyotishi. Users should exercise their own judgement and discretion when acting upon any AI-generated recommendations.

The Sanatan Sansaar mobile application may request access to device permissions including camera (for scanning or uploading images), microphone (for voice-based consultations), location (for location-specific services and delivery), and push notifications (for order updates and reminders). All permissions are optional and can be revoked at any time through your device settings. The app will not access any device feature without your explicit permission. Revoking a permission may limit the functionality of features that depend on it, but core platform features will remain accessible.

Astrologer / Consultant Earnings

Earnings from consultations, readings, and other services are processed on a monthly payout cycle. The platform commission rate is disclosed to each astrologer or consultant at the time of onboarding and is subject to revision with prior notice. Any disputes regarding earnings, deductions, or commission calculations must be raised within 7 days of the payout date by writing to the designated support channel.
