Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 26, 2026

1. Who We Are

HustleStack ("we", "us", "our") operates the website hustlestack.in and all associated services. We are committed to protecting your personal data in compliance with India's Information Technology Act, 2000, the IT (Reasonable Security Practices and Procedures) Rules, 2011, and the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.

2. Data We Collect

We collect information in the following ways:

  • Account Data: When you sign in via Google (or other providers), we receive your name, email address, and profile picture as provided by the authentication provider.
  • Document Data: Information you enter into our document generators (e.g., names, addresses, financial amounts) is stored to enable saving, editing, and downloading your documents.
  • Scheme Finder Data: Anonymous demographic information (age range, gender, state, occupation, income range, interests) used to match you with government schemes. This data is not linked to your account.
  • Settlement Application Data: If you apply for debt settlement assistance, we collect your name, phone, email, city, outstanding amounts, and relevant financial details.
  • Usage Data: Standard server logs including IP address, browser type, pages visited, and timestamps.

3. How We Use Your Data

  • To provide, maintain, and improve our services
  • To save and retrieve your generated documents
  • To match you with relevant government schemes
  • To connect you with verified counselors for document verification or settlement assistance
  • To send transactional emails (document status updates, settlement progress)
  • To prevent abuse and enforce rate limits

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal data. We share data only in these limited circumstances:

  • Counselors/Advocates: When you submit a document for verification or apply for settlement, assigned counselors can view the relevant document and contact information.
  • Service Providers: We use Supabase (database & auth), Google Gemini (AI generation), and Resend (email delivery). These providers process data on our behalf under contractual obligations.
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose data if required by law, court order, or government authority.

5. Data Storage & Security

Your data is stored on Supabase infrastructure with Row-Level Security (RLS) enabled, meaning users can only access their own data. We use HTTPS encryption for all data in transit. We do not store payment card details — all payments are processed through third-party payment gateways.

6. Your Rights

Under Indian data protection law, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Request deletion of your account and associated data
  • Withdraw consent for data processing

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@hustlestack.in.

7. Cookies

We use essential cookies for authentication and session management. We do not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies.

8. Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed at individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors. If you believe we have collected data from a minor, contact us immediately.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be communicated via email or a prominent notice on the platform. Continued use of our services after changes constitutes acceptance.
