Privacy policy

Last updated 22 September 2026

1. Who we are

This website, seagullventure.in, is operated by Seagull Venture Private Limited ("Seagull Venture", "we", "us"), 1st Floor, Plot No. 9, Rohit Nagar, Bawadiya Kalan, Gulmohar Colony, Bhopal 462039, Madhya Pradesh, India. For personal data collected through this website and in the course of our engagements, we are the Data Fiduciary under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.

Our platforms, including MOJO Network, The Founder Kid, StateNews.AI, Ekatma Vani and Pragya Veda, have their own privacy policies on their own websites. This policy covers only seagullventure.in and our consulting work.

2. What we collect

• Information you give us. Your name, organisation, phone number, email address and the details of your enquiry, when you write to us, call us, message us on WhatsApp or use the enquiry form.
• Information shared during an engagement. Business, project and contact information you or your team share while we work together, including documents for scheme documentation. This is also covered by the confidentiality terms of your engagement.
• Chat messages. If you use the assistant on this website, what you type is stored with us and is also sent to the AI provider that generates the reply. Please do not type anything in the chat that you would not put in an email to us.
• Technical information. Like any website, our hosting and security provider automatically processes your IP address, browser type, device type, the pages requested and the time of the request, to deliver the site and protect it from abuse.
• Usage information. Google Analytics records which pages you open, roughly where in the world you are, the device and browser you use, and whether you clicked a phone number, email address or the enquiry button. It does not record what you type into the form or the chat.

The enquiry form on this site does not store anything on our servers. It opens your own email app with a message addressed to us, which you then choose to send.

3. How we use it

• To reply to your enquiry and follow up on it
• To prepare proposals and deliver the services you engage us for
• To send you information you have asked for
• To keep records we are required to keep by law, such as tax and accounting records
• To keep this website secure and working

We do not sell personal data. We do not send marketing messages without your consent, and you can ask us to stop at any time.

4. Basis for processing

We process personal data on the basis of the consent you give when you contact us or engage us, for the specified purpose for which you voluntarily provide it, and where processing is needed to comply with law. You may withdraw consent at any time, as easily as you gave it. Withdrawal does not affect processing already carried out.

5. Who we share it with

• Our team and associates who need it to work on your enquiry or engagement
• Service providers who help us run our business, such as email, hosting, website security and cloud storage providers, under confidentiality obligations
• Government departments, institutions or partners, only where you instruct us to as part of an engagement
• The AI provider that powers the assistant on this website, which receives the messages you type in order to generate a reply
• Google, which processes website usage data on our behalf through Google Analytics
• Authorities, where we are required to by law

Case studies on this website are anonymised. We do not name clients without their permission.

6. Cookies and analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand which pages are useful and how people reach us. It sets cookies in your browser and tells us things like the pages you opened, the device you used and the country you are in. It does not tell us your name, and your IP address is not stored by Google Analytics. We do not use advertising cookies and we do not sell or share this data for advertising.

Our security and delivery provider may set strictly necessary cookies to protect the site. These cannot be switched off.

Analytics is switched off by default for visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, who are asked first and can accept or decline. If you are elsewhere and would rather not be counted, use your browser's private mode, block cookies for this site, or write to our Grievance Officer and we will exclude you.

The site loads fonts from Google Fonts, which means Google receives your IP address. Links to LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram and our platform websites are governed by the privacy policies of those sites.

7. Where data is stored

Our service providers may store or process data outside India. Where they do, we take reasonable steps to make sure the data stays protected, and we follow any restrictions notified by the Government of India.

8. How long we keep it

We keep enquiry data for as long as we need it to respond and follow up, and for up to two years if no engagement follows. We keep engagement records for the duration of the engagement and for as long afterwards as the law requires. Chat transcripts from the website assistant are kept for twelve months and then deleted. Google Analytics data is retained for fourteen months. After these periods, we delete or anonymise the data.

9. Security

We use reasonable security safeguards to protect personal data from unauthorised access, loss or misuse. No system is completely secure. If a personal data breach occurs, we will inform affected persons and the Data Protection Board of India as the law requires.

10. Your rights

You have the right to:

• Ask for a summary of the personal data we hold about you and how we use it
• Ask us to correct, complete, update or erase your personal data
• Withdraw your consent
• Have your grievance addressed by our Grievance Officer
• Nominate another person to exercise these rights in the event of your death or incapacity

To use any of these rights, write to our Grievance Officer at the address below. We aim to respond within 30 days. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may approach the Data Protection Board of India.

11. Children

This website is meant for businesses and institutions and is not directed at children under 18. We do not knowingly collect children's personal data through this site. The Founder Kid, our education programme, is governed by its own policy at thefounderkid.com.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last changed.
