Privacy Policy
1. Information Collection
We process minimal data to provide our directory service. The Hindu Temples Directory does not require user accounts, passwords, or personal identification records to access public temple information.
2. Local Storage & Preferences
Certain features, like your active UI language, selected Dark/Light visual theme, and your saved Temple Favorites may be stored locally on your device using localStorage or cookies. This data is kept solely on your device to enhance your browsing experience and is not synchronized to external servers.
3. Third-Party Services
We may utilize third-party map providers (like MapLibre or Google Maps) to render geolocation tools and interactive maps. These providers may collect your IP address or basic telemetry. Additionally, AI Insights generation may securely transmit local prompts to an AI provider (e.g. Google Gemini) when manually triggered via your device browser.
4. Contact
For any questions concerning your privacy or the data represented on our platform, please refer to the primary government HR&CE portals or reach out to the project maintainers.
