Privacy Policy

Introduction

Sadhana Yog ("Sadhana Yog," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit omsadhanayog.com, contact us, or take part in our yog classes, therapy sessions, workshops, retreats, and yatras.

Information We Collect

We may collect information about you in the following ways:

Personal Data

When you enquire, book a class, or register for a program, we may collect your name, email address, phone or WhatsApp number, age, and emergency contact details.

Health Information

Because yog is a physical and energetic practice, we may ask about your health so we can guide you safely — including injuries, surgeries, pregnancy, chronic conditions, medications, and physical or mental health concerns relevant to your participation in classes or in our Sadhana Yog Therapy System. You share this information voluntarily and may choose not to disclose it, although doing so may limit our ability to teach you safely.

Communications

Records of your correspondence with us through our contact form, WhatsApp, email, or social media, and the details you provide when subscribing to our newsletter.

Usage Data

We automatically collect certain information when you visit our website, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, access times, and pages viewed.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Schedule, deliver, and personalize your classes and programs
• Adapt practice, sequencing, and therapy to your health needs and physical limits
• Respond to your enquiries and confirm bookings (often via WhatsApp)
• Process payments and maintain attendance and records
• Send schedules, updates, and — with your consent — newsletters or promotional material
• Improve our website, classes, and offerings
• Comply with legal obligations and protect participant safety

Health Information — Special Care

We treat the health information you share as confidential. It is accessed only by your instructor or therapist and used solely to plan safe and appropriate practice. We do not share it with third parties except where necessary to protect your safety (for example, in a medical emergency) or where required by law.

Photography, Video & Media

We may photograph or record classes, workshops, events, retreats, and yatras for teaching, archival, and promotional purposes, including on our website and social media channels. If you do not wish to appear in such media, please let us know in advance or at the time of recording, and we will make reasonable efforts to accommodate your request.

WhatsApp & Third-Party Services

We use WhatsApp and similar messaging services to communicate with you about enquiries and bookings. Your use of these services is also governed by their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review them.

Cookies & Analytics

Our website uses cookies and analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use the site and to improve your experience. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, although some parts of the site may not function as intended without them.

Information Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share your information only in the following circumstances:

• With trusted service providers who help us operate (for example, hosting, payment, communication, and travel partners for retreats and yatras)
• To comply with legal obligations or protect rights and safety
• In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets
• With your consent or at your direction

Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal data, including:

• The right to access your personal data
• The right to correct inaccurate data
• The right to request deletion of your data
• The right to restrict or object to processing
• The right to withdraw consent

Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to third-party websites and services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these external sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.

Children's Privacy

Minors may take part in our classes and programs only with the consent and, where appropriate, supervision of a parent or legal guardian. We collect a minor's information only from, or with the consent of, a parent or guardian. If you believe we have collected such information without proper consent, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
