Privacy Policy

Effective Date: September 2026 | Draft Document Subject to Periodic Review

Policy Notice & Scope:This Privacy Policy describes how Paisanagar Financial Services (“Paisanagar”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, processes, stores, and transfers personal and financial data when you visit our website, utilize our financial tools, or submit digital loan application intakes. This document constitutes a structured, product-ready draft policy aligned with Indian data protection standards and information technology principles.

1. Information We Collect

To facilitate loan discovery, verify applicant credentials, and transmit loan intake files to participating lending partners, we collect information across the following categories:

  • Identity & Contact Details: Full legal name, date of birth, gender, residential address, mobile telephone number, email address, and Permanent Account Number (PAN).
  • Occupational & Income Records: Employment classification (salaried or self-employed), employer or enterprise name, monthly net take-home salary, annual audited turnover, and declared ongoing monthly debt obligations (EMIs).
  • KYC & Verification Documentation: Uploaded copies of identity proofs (PAN card, Aadhaar, Passport, or Voter ID), address verification documents, bank account statements, salary slips, and Income Tax Returns (ITR).
  • Technical & Telemetry Data: IP address, device identifier, browser classification, operating system, and timestamped authentication session logs.

2. Purpose of Data Processing

Paisanagar processes personal data strictly for specified, legitimate business purposes:

  • Authenticating user identity and establishing verified customer portal accounts.
  • Evaluating borrower parameters against participating lender underwriting matrices.
  • Facilitating the transmission of completed, applicant-approved loan application files to selected Banks and RBI-registered NBFCs.
  • Providing self-service milestone tracking and real-time application status notifications.
  • Complying with statutory fraud-prevention, record-keeping, and legal requirements under Indian law.

3. Consent-Driven Information Sharing

Paisanagar operates exclusively as an institutional loan marketplace. We share applicant information only under the following disciplined circumstances:

  • Participating Lending Institutions: When an applicant authorizes submission for a specific loan facility, the relevant application dossier and supporting documents are securely transmitted to the chosen Bank or NBFC for independent credit evaluation.
  • Authorized Service Providers: Trusted technological infrastructure partners (cloud hosting, document encryption, and SMS/OTP delivery services) operating under strict non-disclosure and data processing agreements.
  • Statutory Mandates: Where disclosure is legally demanded by a judicial court order, regulatory authority, or law enforcement agency operating under applicable Indian statutes.
  • No Commercial Sale of Data: Paisanagar does not sell, lease, or monetize borrower personal contact records with unrelated third-party telemarketers or advertisers.

4. Data Security & Storage Protocols

We maintain multi-tiered administrative, physical, and technological safeguards to protect personal data against accidental loss, unauthorized access, destruction, or disclosure:

  • Paisanagar applies appropriate technical and organizational safeguards to protect information in transit and at rest, subject to the platform's implemented security controls and applicable requirements.
  • Sensitive identifiers (including PAN and credential hashes) are stored with cryptographic protections.
  • Access to uploaded documents is governed by strict role-based access control (RBAC), multi-factor authentication, and immutable audit logging.

5. Data Retention & Borrower Rights

We retain personal information for the period required to service active loan applications, fulfill statutory record-keeping obligations, and resolve potential operational disputes.

Under applicable Indian data protection principles, applicants hold rights including:

  • The right to access and review personal information maintained on the platform.
  • The right to request rectification of inaccurate, outdated, or incomplete personal data.
  • The right to withdraw consent for active marketing communications or prospective lender submissions.
