Your birth data and personal life notes are treated with absolute confidentiality.

Fulfillment of Services: To grant access to course curricula, maintain digital accounts, deliver downloaded texts, and provide educational materials.

-
Ad Measurement and Attribution: To evaluate campaign conversions, analyze audience engagement, and optimize advertising spend across Meta and X networks.
3. Strict Confidentiality of Astrological & Personal Life Details
We recognize the sensitive and personal nature of birth records and private life circumstances shared during astrological consultations.
-
No Commercial Sharing: Your birth date, birth time, birth place, and private comments regarding your personal or family situations are never shared, sold, rented, or exposed to any third-party advertisers, data aggregators, or social media networks.
-
Isolation from Marketing Pixels: All personal notes and sensitive birth data submitted through consultation forms are strictly isolated from advertising tracking tags (such as Meta Pixel or X Pixel) and are processed solely for astrological evaluation.
4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Vraj Vrindavan places first-party session and persistent cookies (small data files) on your browser to support essential navigation, maintain login sessions, store user interface preferences, and combat malicious traffic.
You can configure your browser to reject cookies or notify you when a cookie is placed. If you choose to decline cookies, certain interactive areas of our site or course portals may not function properly.
5. Third-Party Advertising: Meta and X Pixels & Conversion APIs
We deploy digital advertising tools provided by Meta Platforms, Inc. (Facebook & Instagram) and X Corp. (formerly Twitter) to measure the effectiveness of our campaigns and reach prospective students in regions including the United States, Australia, and India.
-
Tracking Pixels: Embedded JavaScript tags (the Meta Pixel and X Pixel) collect interaction data, device metadata, and visited page URLs when you view our site.
-
Server-to-Server Conversions (Conversions API): Secure direct endpoints that transmit completed transaction events (such as viewing a course page or finishing an enrollment) from our web server to Meta and X for attribution accuracy.
-
Advanced Hashed Matching: When you enroll in a course, basic contact fields (such as your email address or phone number) may be mathematically converted into a one-way, irreversible cryptographic hash (SHA-256) before transmission. Meta and X match these hashes against their existing registered accounts without receiving raw, plain-text contact details.
-
Third-Party Utilization: Meta and X use this data to deliver relevant advertisements across their networks, provide aggregated conversion analytics, and optimize ad display in accordance with their respective privacy terms.
6. Managing Your Tracking & Opt-Out Choices
Our site operates on direct measurement tracking without an on-site cookie modal. You may exercise full control over ad-tracking technologies through:
-
Platform Preferences:
-
Meta: Adjust personalization settings via the Meta Ad Preferences Center.
-
X: Turn off off-platform tracking inside your account under Settings and Privacy > Privacy and Safety > Data sharing and off-X activity.

7. Public Comments, Social Plugins, and Embedded Media
-
Comments and Public Posts: Information voluntarily posted in comment sections on travel guides, articles, or biographies becomes publicly visible and indexable by search engines. Do not share confidential or sensitive personal data in public forum areas.
-
Embedded Third-Party Content: Articles on this website may include embedded resources (such as YouTube videos, audio streaming widgets, or maps). Embedded content from third-party services behaves as if you visited the source provider directly, and those platforms may place their own tracking cookies or log interactions according to their independent privacy statements.
-
Social Sharing Widgets: If you choose to share Vraj Vrindavan content on third-party networks (e.g., Facebook, X, WhatsApp, LinkedIn), those platforms may receive referrer and URL details through browser requests.

Adjusting your advertising personalization settings directly within your Meta Ad Preferences and X Account Settings.
