Privacy
Policy

Mrs. India Inc (“we”, “us” or “the Organizer”) is responsible for the personal information collected through the Miss Grand India 2027 registration website. This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, how it is shared and the choices available to you.

1. Information we collect

• Application details: full name, date of birth, age at the eligibility reference date, email address, gender, WhatsApp number, alternate phone number, Instagram handle, qualification, city, state or region, height, weight, marital status, citizenship status and your reason for applying.
• Consent and audit records: acceptance of the Terms and Privacy Policy, policy versions, acceptance timestamps, eligibility declaration and optional marketing preference.
• Payment records: payment status, amount, currency, Razorpay order and payment identifiers, and limited transaction metadata. Card, UPI, bank credentials and payment authentication data are handled by Razorpay and are not stored by this website.
• Technical data: a hashed IP address, browser user-agent, approximate source or UTM attribution, timestamps and security logs used to prevent abuse and investigate errors.
• Communications: messages you send to official support channels and records of acknowledgements or service notifications.

2. Why we use your information

• To receive, assess, administer and communicate about your application.
• To create and verify payments, prevent fraud, reconcile transactions and maintain financial records.
• To operate auditions, screening, selection and campaign activities where you are invited to participate.
• To send transactional messages about your application, payment and next steps.
• To improve the website, investigate errors and protect the security and integrity of the registration process.
• To comply with legal, tax, accounting, regulatory and dispute-resolution obligations.
• To send marketing communications only where a separate optional consent has been given, or where otherwise permitted by law.

Depending on the context, processing is based on your consent, the need to take steps at your request before a potential contract, compliance with legal obligations, and legitimate interests in operating a secure and fair registration process.

3. Payment processing

Payments are processed by Razorpay or another disclosed payment processor. When you proceed to payment, the processor may collect your contact details, payment instrument details and authentication information under its own privacy policy and security controls. We receive confirmation of the order, payment status and limited transaction identifiers so that we can reconcile your application.

4. Service providers and sharing

We may share limited information with service providers that help us operate the registration, including payment processing, hosting, email delivery, security monitoring, data storage, analytics and professional advisers. Providers are expected to process information only for the agreed purpose and under appropriate confidentiality and security obligations.

Hosting, email and analytics providers are to be confirmed by the Organizer before launch. We do not sell personal information. We may disclose information where required by law, court order, regulatory request, to protect rights and safety, or as part of a lawful business restructuring.

5. Cookies and analytics

The registration site may use strictly necessary cookies for security, session management and form submission. Optional analytics are disabled unless configured and permitted. If analytics are enabled, they must not receive names, email addresses, phone numbers, dates of birth, Instagram handles or free-text application answers. You can control cookies through your browser settings, although disabling necessary cookies may prevent registration or payment from working.

6. Retention

Application and payment records are retained for , and for longer where required by law, tax or accounting rules, fraud prevention, dispute resolution or the defence of legal claims. When information is no longer needed, it is securely deleted, anonymised or archived under access controls.

7. Security

We use administrative, technical and organisational safeguards intended to protect personal information, including encrypted application access tokens, restricted administrator access, audit logging, server-side payment verification and security headers. No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Please use a private device and official website links when applying or checking payment status.

8. Your rights and choices

Subject to applicable law, you may request access to your personal information, correction of inaccurate information, deletion, restriction or objection to certain processing, withdrawal of consent, or a copy of the information you provided. Some records may be retained where we have a legal or legitimate need to do so.

To make a request, contact the official privacy contact once published. We may need to verify your identity and will respond within the period required by applicable law. You may also have the right to complain to the relevant data protection authority.

9. Children

The campaign is intended for adults who meet the published eligibility criteria. We do not knowingly accept applications from anyone below the minimum eligible age. If you believe a minor has submitted personal information, contact us so that it can be reviewed and removed where appropriate.

10. International processing

Service providers may process information in India or other jurisdictions. Where information is transferred across borders, we expect appropriate safeguards and contractual protections to be applied, subject to the Organizer’s approved data-transfer framework.

11. Grievance and privacy contact

Grievance Officer details are pending organizer approval.

A dedicated privacy contact address is pending organizer approval.
