Privacy Policy
Last updated: 10 October 2026
This policy explains what personal data Taali collects, why, and the choices you have. Cleviorr Infotech Private Limited is the Data Fiduciary for Taali under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.
In short
- We collect only what the app needs: your name, mobile number and the garba plans you make.
- We never store your selfies, card or UPI details, or your exact location.
- We don't sell your data and don't use advertising trackers.
- You can ask us to see, correct or delete your data at any time.
1. What we collect and why
| Data | Why |
|---|---|
| Name and mobile number | To create your account, sign you in with a one-time code (sent by WhatsApp or SMS), and show your name to your squad. |
| City and area you choose | To sort garbas by distance. If you tap “Use my current location”, your phone's location is used on your device to pick the nearest area. It stays on your phone; we don't receive or store your exact location. |
| Garba plans, squads, votes, check-ins | To show your nights, let your squad plan together, and keep your Garba Streak. Totals like “120 going on Night 7” are shown without names. |
| Crowd reports | To show how busy a garba is. Reports are combined and shown without your name. |
| Garba Meter step counts | To show your stats and squad leaderboard. Steps are counted on your phone; only nightly totals are saved. |
| Payment records | Order ID, payment ID, amount and status, to activate Pro and for tax records. Card, UPI and bank details are handled only by Razorpay. |
| Referral code and rewards | Your referral code, and how many friends bought Pro with it, to give you the rewards shown in the app. You see the count only, not who your friends are. If you claim a Paytm voucher, the Paytm mobile number you enter is used only to send that voucher, never for marketing. |
| Emergency contact | Stored only on your phone, to let you call or message them from the Safety tab. |
| App preferences | Theme, city and similar settings are kept in your browser's storage on your device. |
| Visit counts | To know how many people visit and which of our links or posts brought them. Each page view is counted with a random ID kept in your browser, the page, the site or link you came from, and your device type (phone or computer). It isn't linked to your name or number, and we don't store your IP address, use cookies for it, or use outside analytics or advertising services. |
| Basic technical logs | Kept briefly by our hosting provider to keep the service secure and working. |
2. Who we share it with
Only with service providers who help us run Taali, under agreements that limit their use of the data:
- Supabase: database and sign-in (servers in Mumbai, India)
- Vercel: website hosting
- Razorpay: payments
- Paytm: only if you claim a referral voucher, to send it to the Paytm mobile you give us
- MSG91 / WhatsApp (Meta): delivering your one-time sign-in code
- Maps and places providers: map images and nearby food. They receive venue locations, not your personal details.
People in your squad see your first name, the nights you're going, your votes and your step totals. We may disclose data if required by law or to protect someone's safety. We never sell personal data.
3. How long we keep it
Account details are kept until you delete your account. Season data (plans, squads, votes, steps, crowd reports and visit counts) is deleted or anonymised by the end of the following March. Payment records, and records of referral vouchers we send (Paytm mobile, amount and date), are kept as long as Indian tax law requires.
4. Your rights
You can ask to access, correct or erase your personal data, withdraw consent (which may stop some features working), nominate someone to act for you, and raise a grievance. Write to grievance@gotaali.app with your registered mobile number, or use the Contact page. We reply within 15 days. If you're not satisfied, you may approach the Data Protection Board of India.
5. Children
Taali is meant for people 18 and older. Younger users may use it only with verifiable consent from a parent or guardian. If you believe a child has signed up without consent, contact us and we'll delete the account.
6. Security
Data is encrypted in transit, access is restricted by database security rules so each person sees only their own data (and their squad's), and payment data never touches our servers. Within Cleviorr Infotech, only authorised staff can see account details (name, email, mobile), and only to provide support, handle payments and refunds, and keep Taali safe. We never use your mobile number for marketing. No system is perfectly secure; we'll inform you and the authorities as the law requires if a breach affects you.
7. Changes
We'll post updates here and tell you in the app about significant changes.
