Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 5, 2025

Welcome to Prettiva & Co. (“we,” “our,” or “us”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose and protect your personal data when you visit or make purchases from our website https://prettiva.co and related services. This policy describes the types of data we collect, the lawful bases for processing, how long we retain data, how we share it, and the rights available to you under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act) and applicable law.

1. Information We Collect

We collect personal data necessary to provide and improve our services. Types of data we may collect include:

  • Identity & contact: name, email address, phone number, shipping and billing address.
  • Account data: account credentials, order history, preferences, wishlists.
  • Payment data: payment instrument details processed securely by our payment partners (we do not store full card data on our servers).
  • Demographic & profile: postcode, preferences, interests and responses to surveys (if you provide them).
  • Technical & analytics: IP address, device and browser information, cookie identifiers, pages visited and usage data collected via analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel).
  • User generated content: reviews, messages, images you upload when interacting with our services.

2. Lawful Basis, Purpose Limitation & Data Minimisation

We collect and process personal data only for specific, explicit and legitimate purposes and only to the extent necessary for those purposes. We rely on the following lawful bases under applicable law, including the DPDP Act:

  • Performance of a contract: to process orders, deliver products, and provide customer service.
  • Consent: for direct marketing, analytics cookies, and other optional processing where you have given clear, informed and unambiguous consent.
  • Legal obligation: to comply with applicable laws, tax and accounting requirements.
  • Legitimate interests: for fraud prevention, network and information security, and improving our services where such interests are balanced against your rights and freedoms.

We will provide clear notices at or before the point of data collection explaining the purposes and the lawful basis. We will not process your personal data for new purposes incompatible with the original purpose without further notice or consent where required.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use personal data to:

  • Process and fulfil your orders and manage returns.
  • Communicate with you about orders, shipping, customer service and account matters.
  • Perform fraud detection and security checks.
  • Operate, improve and personalize our website, products and services.
  • Send marketing communications only if you have opted in; you may withdraw consent at any time as described in Section 8.
  • Comply with legal obligations (tax, accounting, regulatory requests).

4. Cookies, Tracking & Consent

We use cookies and similar technologies to provide and improve our services, remember preferences and analyze site usage. When you first visit our site we present a cookie notice that explains cookie categories (necessary, preferences, analytics, marketing) and requests your consent for non-essential cookies. Necessary cookies are required for core site functionality and are used without consent. Analytics and marketing cookies are loaded only after you give consent. You can manage cookie preferences through the banner or via your browser settings and you may withdraw consent at any time using a method that is as easy as the method used to give consent. Declining certain cookies may reduce functionality or personalization.

5. Sharing Your Information

We will not sell or lease your personal data. We share information with third parties only as necessary to provide our services, under contractual confidentiality obligations and technical safeguards. Categories of recipients include:

  • Print-on-demand production partners to create and fulfil orders.
  • Shipping carriers and logistics partners (e.g., Blue Dart) to deliver products.
  • Payment processors and gateways to securely process payments.
  • Marketing and analytics service providers to help measure and optimize our services (only with appropriate safeguards or your consent where required).
  • Professional advisors and auditors when necessary for legal or financial compliance.

6. Data Storage, Retention & Deletion

Your personal data is stored securely on Odoo’s hosting platform and with our authorised processors. We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described and to comply with legal obligations. Typical retention periods:

  • Order and accounting records: retained for up to 7 years to meet tax and legal obligations.
  • Transactional and account data: retained while your account is active and for up to 2 years after inactivity unless needed for legal claims.
  • Marketing data: retained until you unsubscribe or withdraw consent.
  • Analytics and cookies: retained as described in our cookie notice (typically up to 24 months for analytics identifiers unless you opt out).

When data is no longer necessary we will delete it or anonymize it so it can no longer be used to identify you, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

7. Data Security & Breach Notification

We implement reasonable technical, administrative and physical safeguards to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access. These measures include access controls, role-based permissions, monitoring, encryption where appropriate, secure hosting environments and contractual requirements for processors.

In the unlikely event of a personal data breach likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will act promptly to contain the breach, assess its impact and, where required by the DPDP Act, notify the Data Protection Board of India and all affected Data Principals without undue delay. We will provide affected individuals with information about the nature of the breach, likely consequences and the steps we are taking, and guidance on measures they can take to protect themselves.

8. Your Rights Under the DPDP Act

You have the following rights in relation to your personal data (subject to applicable exemptions):

  • Right of access: request a summary of personal data we hold about you, the processing purposes and categories of recipients to whom data has been disclosed.
  • Right to correction: request correction or completion of inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Right to erasure: request deletion of your personal data where permitted by law.
  • Right to withdraw consent: withdraw any consent you have given for processing; withdrawal will be as easy as the method used to give consent and does not affect processing carried out before withdrawal.
  • Right to nominate: you may nominate a person to exercise your rights under this policy after your death or incapacity; please provide details to our Grievance Officer.
  • Right to grievance redressal: you can file a grievance with our Grievance Officer.

We will acknowledge receipt of valid requests without undue delay and will respond substantively within 30 calendar days unless a different statutory timeframe applies. If more time is required we will inform you of the reason and expected timeline.

To exercise your rights, please contact our Grievance Officer using the details in Section 11.

9. Processing Without Consent

Certain processing may be performed without consent where permitted by law and the DPDP Act, for example to comply with legal obligations, to detect or prevent fraud, in an emergency to protect life or health, or when processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. When we rely on such lawful grounds we will process only the minimum data necessary for the purpose.

10. Children’s Privacy

Our services are not intended for persons under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 18. We do not undertake tracking or behavioural monitoring of, or targeted advertising directed at, children.
