Privacy Policy

Lagn Bhet (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates this matrimony platform to help members of the Marathi community find a life partner. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

1. Information We Collect

  • Profile details you provide: name, date of birth, gender, contact number, email, city, education, occupation, income range, family details, religion, caste, and photographs.
  • Partner preference details you set for matchmaking.
  • Communication data: interests sent/received, chat messages between mutually accepted members, and support requests.
  • Technical data: IP address, device/browser type, and usage activity on the platform, used for security and service improvement.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • To create and display your profile to other members according to your visibility settings.
  • To generate match suggestions based on your stated preferences.
  • To verify profiles and maintain the safety and authenticity of the platform.
  • To send you service-related notifications (interest alerts, match suggestions, account updates) via email.
  • To respond to support requests and investigate reported misuse.

3. Photo & Contact Protection

Profile photos are hidden from visitors who are not logged in. Contact details (phone number, email) are only shared with another member after you choose to reveal them or after mutual interest is accepted, depending on your account settings.

4. Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. Your profile is visible to other registered members as part of the core matchmaking service. We may share limited data with service providers who help us operate the platform (such as hosting and email delivery), bound by confidentiality obligations, or when required by law.

5. Data Retention

We retain your profile data for as long as your account is active. If you deactivate or delete your account, your profile is removed from search and matching; residual data may be retained for a limited period for legal, security, or fraud-prevention purposes.

6. Your Choices

  • You can edit or update your profile information at any time from Account Settings.
  • You can block or ignore specific members, restricting their ability to view or contact you.
  • You can request account deactivation or permanent deletion by contacting us.

7. Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures — including OTP-based verification and secure password storage — to protect your information. However, no online platform can guarantee absolute security, and we encourage members to use strong passwords and report suspicious activity immediately.

8. Children’s Privacy

This platform is intended for adults seeking marriage and is not directed at anyone below the legally marriageable age. We do not knowingly collect data from minors.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be communicated by updating the “Last updated” date above.
