ALINKS Privacy Policy

How Artix collects, uses, stores, and protects personal data of ALINKS tenants (business owners).

  • Version: 0.1-draft
  • Data Fiduciary: Artix / Artix Private Limited
  • Product: ALINKS
  • DPDP Act 2023 alignment — lawyer review required

Draft v0.1 — for product implementation only. Lawyer review required before public launch. Placeholders in [brackets] will be replaced with final approved text.

1. Scope

This Policy explains how Artix collects, uses, stores, and protects personal data of tenants (business owners who register for ALINKS).

Important — end-customer data: Artix does not store your customers', patients', or buyers' personal data on Artix servers. That data is written to storage you own and control: your Google Account (Google Sheets / Drive), or your Supabase project (BYO model). See Data & Storage Addendum. For how you handle customer data, you must publish your own Privacy Policy on your mini-site.

2. Data We Collect (Tenants)

  • Account: name, phone, email, business name, vertical, address, GSTIN (optional)
  • Billing: subscription tier, payment history, invoices, Razorpay payment IDs
  • Technical: IP address, device, browser, session logs, security logs
  • Platform use: pages edited, products added, feature usage, AI credit balance
  • OAuth tokens: encrypted Google/Supabase connection tokens (not sheet content)
  • Gateway keys (optional): encrypted tenant Razorpay secret for BYO shop checkout — never logged in plain text
  • Legal acceptances: which documents you agreed to, version, timestamp, IP

3. Data We Do Not Collect or Retain

  • Customer names, phones, orders, appointments, patient details (permanent storage)
  • Full contents of your Google Sheets or Supabase tables
  • Card numbers (payments via tenant-hosted Razorpay checkout only)
  • Clinical diagnoses or medical records

Transient processing: during a booking or checkout request, customer fields may exist in server memory only long enough to append to your Google Sheet or Supabase, then are discarded.

4. Purpose of Processing

  • Provide and improve ALINKS services
  • Billing and subscription management (Artix SaaS fees)
  • Authentication and security
  • Optional storefront checkout integration using your own payment gateway keys
  • Support and abuse prevention
  • Legal compliance and dispute resolution
  • Aggregated analytics (no customer PII)

5. Legal Basis (DPDP)

  • Consent: signup, optional features, marketing (if any)
  • Contract: necessary to provide subscribed services
  • Legal obligation: tax, fraud prevention, lawful requests
  • Legitimate uses: security, platform integrity
