Privacy Policy

• Account: mobile number, email (optional), password (stored hashed), sign-in records.
• Profile: name, gender, date of birth, education, profession, district, family details, about-me text and partner preferences.
• Community and faith: religion, community, clan or sect and similar details you choose to give so we can match you and apply community customs such as clan avoidance.
• Horoscope (optional): birth time and place for Kundli matching.
• Photos you upload.
• Verification documents (for example Aadhaar offline e-KYC or another ID), only when you choose to verify and give separate consent.
• Activity: interests sent and received, shortlists, messages, reports and blocks.
• Search activity: the filters you search with, the profiles shown to you in search results and suggestions, and which of them you open, shortlist or send interest to.
• Payments: plan, amount and transaction reference. Card, UPI and bank details are handled by PayU or Google Play; we do not store them.
• Technical: IP address, device and browser information and logs, used for security and fraud prevention.

We process your personal data on the basis of the consent you give when you register, and separate consent for identity verification. We use it to create and show your profile, suggest and search matches, learn from your search activity to improve the matches we suggest and how results are ranked, enable interests and messaging, verify members, process payments, moderate content, prevent fraud and abuse, and comply with law.

You may withdraw consent at any time by deleting your account (see section 5). Withdrawal does not affect processing done before it. We do not sell your personal data.

• Other signed-in members see your profile according to your privacy settings. You choose who sees your photos and your phone number, and you can hide your profile.
• Your phone number is never shown to free members.
• Monmilan staff see data only as needed for moderation, verification, support and safety, and these actions are logged.
• Service providers process data on our behalf: cloud storage (Cloudflare R2), automated photo moderation (Amazon Rekognition), SMS OTP delivery (MSG91), payments (PayU, Google Play) and push notifications. They may only use it to provide their service to us.
• We disclose data to government or law-enforcement authorities only when required by law.

• Access: get a summary of your personal data and how it is processed. You can download a copy of your data from Settings.
• Correction: edit most profile details yourself in the app. Date of birth and gender can only be changed through support after checks.
• Erasure: delete your account (section 5).
• Grievance redressal: contact our Grievance Officer; if unresolved, you may approach the Data Protection Board of India.
• Nomination: nominate a person to exercise these rights if you die or become incapacitated, by writing to the Grievance Officer.

You can delete your account from Settings. Your profile is hidden from all members immediately. You have a 30-day grace period to change your mind by logging back in. After 30 days we permanently delete your profile, photos, preferences and verification documents, remove you from search, and anonymise messages you sent so that they no longer identify you.

We keep only what the law requires — for example payment and invoice records for the period required under tax law, and records of serious safety violations needed to prevent the same person re-registering or to assist law enforcement.

• Profile and activity data, including search activity: while your account is active, then deleted as described in section 5.
• Verification documents: deleted within one year after the verification review is completed; only the verified status is kept.
• Payment records: as required by tax and accounting law.
• Security logs: for a limited period needed to investigate abuse and fraud.

We use encryption in transit, encryption of Aadhaar e-KYC data at rest, access controls and audit logs. If a personal data breach occurs, we will inform affected users and the Data Protection Board of India as required by the DPDP Act.

Monmilan is only for adults of legal marriageable age in India — at least 18 years for women and 21 years for men. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

See our Cookie Policy. If we change this policy in a material way we will notify you in the app before the change applies.
