Privacy Policy

Who we are

Kitchen Gift is an online retailer of kitchen gifts and accessories.
Website address: https://kitchengift.in

This page explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information of visitors, customers, and prospective customers who browse products, place orders, or contact us for support.

Comments

If the site provides a feature for visitors to leave comments or feedback:

  • Information entered in the comment form, such as name, email address, and website, may be collected temporarily to display the comment and to assist with spam prevention.

  • Technical data such as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent may be collected to detect and mitigate spam and misuse.

  • If a service like Gravatar is used, an anonymized string derived from the visitor’s email address may be provided to that service to verify profile information. This can allow a profile image or related info to appear alongside an approved comment.

  • We may retain this information to recognize or approve future comments automatically, or to help moderate comment content, thereby improving site security and user experience.

Media

If users upload media or images to the website:

  • Avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS) to protect personal privacy.

  • Uploaded files may be downloaded by others, and any embedded data could potentially be extracted from those files.

This guidance is intended to prevent inadvertent disclosure of location or other sensitive information through image uploads.

Cookies

The site may use cookies and similar technologies for site functionality and user convenience:

  • Temporary cookies may remember form entries, display preferences, or login status, improving the browsing and editing experience.

  • If a visitor logs in, cookies may store login information or screen display choices for a limited duration or until logout.

  • Additional temporary cookies may be set when editing or publishing content, typically to note the specific content being edited; these usually expire after a short period.

These cookies are primarily for operational purposes and user convenience, not for storing personal data beyond what is required for the site’s function.

Embedded content from other websites

Occasionally this site may embed content from external websites, such as videos, images, or other media:

  • Embedded content behaves as if the visitor has visited that external site directly.

  • External websites may collect information about visitors, use cookies, embed additional tracking, or monitor user interaction with the embedded content, especially if the visitor is logged into those external services.

Therefore, embedded content is subject to the privacy practices of the external websites and not solely governed by this site’s policy.

Who we share your data with

We share personal data only with partners who require it to fulfill services or ensure security:

  • Courier or delivery partners – to deliver orders, we may share name, address, phone number, and other shipping details.

  • Payment processors or gateways – for secure online payments, necessary transaction data may be shared with the payment provider (for example Razorpay or any other secure provider used).

  • Security or fraud detection services – in limited cases, to identify suspicious or unusual activity, information may be shared strictly for safety and fraud prevention.

We do not sell or rent personal information to unrelated third parties. Data is shared only when necessary to complete orders, enable payments, or maintain service quality and security.

How long we retain your data

Personal information is retained only as long as necessary for legitimate business purposes:

  • Order and purchase records – kept for order completion, delivery, and any post‑purchase requirements such as support, complaints, or refunds. Retention length may vary from several months to a few years based on operational, legal, or financial needs.

  • Comments or feedback – if any are submitted, they may be retained to preserve context or history for future reference.

  • User accounts – if a visitor registers on the site, profile information can be viewed, updated, or removed by the user, subject to platform limitations.

  • Data removal requests – users may request deletion of their personal data, provided retention is not required by law, regulation, or legitimate business necessity.

Overall, we do not retain data longer than necessary, keeping only what is essential for operations, customer service, or compliance.

What rights you have over your data

You have specific rights regarding your personal information:

  1. Access

    • You may request to review the personal data we hold about you, such as order details, contact information, or account information.

    • We will explain what data is stored and how it is used.

  2. Correction or update

    • If any personal data (name, address, email, phone, etc.) is inaccurate or outdated, you may request correction or update.

  3. Deletion

    • You may request deletion of your personal data, subject to legal, regulatory, or financial obligations to retain certain information.

    • In some cases, limited retention may be required for tax, accounting, or compliance reasons, which could delay or restrict deletion.

  4. Other requests

    • You may ask for restrictions on certain uses of your data or opt out of specific communications. We will endeavor to honor such preferences where feasible.

Where your data is sent

When personal information is transmitted, it is handled with care and only sent where necessary:

  • Order processing or password resets – certain details such as IP address may be included in communications for security verification.

  • Spam or security services – if content is checked for spam or abuse, information may be shared with those services to ensure safe and reliable operation.

  • Third‑party services – couriers, payment gateways, or verification services may receive data only as needed for legitimate service functions.

The guiding principle is to share data only when necessary for a specific service or security purpose and to avoid unnecessary data transfers.

Final note

This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically.
If we add new services, features, or data processing activities, this page will be revised accordingly.
We recommend reviewing this policy from time to time to stay informed about how your information is collected, stored, and used.
