Privacy Notice

1. Our commitment

At DigiKavach Technologies Pvt. Ltd., protecting your digital safety and privacy is our mission. We process personal data in line with India's Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, 2023 and applicable information technology laws.

2. Information we collect

We collect only what we need to analyse fraud and help you respond:

• Content you submit for checking: messages, links, phone numbers, UPI IDs, QR codes or app files you choose to send to Kavach One.
• Channel identifiers: when you use WhatsApp or our apps, your identifier is protected (salted and hashed) to reduce exposure of your identity.
• Incident details: if you have been defrauded, the transaction details and facts you share so we can help prepare your 1930 complaint and bank requests.
• Kavach Plus app: the app processes call, message, link, QR and app signals on your phone to warn you of fraud, as described in the app's in-app privacy information and Google Play data-safety section.

3. The checker on this website

• The instant check runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to us or anyone else.
• The deeper AI check is optional. Only if you consent is the message you pasted sent to our Kavach One service, hosted in India, for analysis. A report may be generated that you can download in the same browser session.
• This website does not use advertising or analytics trackers.

4. Why we process your data

• To check content against our fraud detection models and give you a risk assessment.
• To help you prepare complaint drafts and freeze requests for submission to 1930, cybercrime.gov.in and your bank.
• To improve our threat intelligence, using irreversibly anonymised and aggregated indicators only.

5. Service providers

• Cloud hosting: data centres located in India, with encryption at rest and in transit.
• Web fonts: this website loads fonts from Google Fonts. No personal or scam-check data is shared with it.
• Translation (optional): if you choose a language other than English, the page is translated by Google Translate, which receives the page's public text. Chat messages are not sent for translation.
• Payments: Kavach Plus subscriptions are paid inside the app; the plan, total payable and terms are shown before you pay.

6. Your rights

As a Data Principal you can request access to, correction of or erasure of your data, withdraw consent, raise a grievance and nominate someone to act for you. See Your DPDP Rights.
