Privacy Policy

At The Human Alarm Clock & Co. (THAC), conscious action is at the heart of everything we do—and that includes how we treat your data. This Privacy Policy outlines what we collect, how we use it, and how we keep it safe. By using our website (www.thehumanalarmclock.com), you agree to the practices described here. This site is operated by The Human Alarm Clock & Co., a trading name under Vandana Saxena Poria, registered in Pune, India, under the Companies Act, 2013.

What We Collect and How

When you interact with us—whether browsing our site, filling out a form, or registering for a programme—we may collect personal data like your name, email address, phone number, city, country, and IP address. If you purchase something from us, we’ll also collect your billing details (name and address), though we do not store or process credit card information directly on our site. We also gather data passively using tools such as Google Analytics. This includes your browser type, device, pages visited, how long you stay, and the site you came from. This helps us understand how you and others use our website.

Why We Collect It

We collect your information to make your experience better and more relevant. It helps us respond to your messages, confirm registrations, personalise content, improve our offerings, and keep things running smoothly. If you’ve opted in, we might send you updates about workshops, events, or curated content. We may also combine your information with insights from third-party tools to better understand our community and its needs.

Who We Share It With

We never sell your personal data. We may share it only with trusted service providers who help us deliver our programmes or manage communications—for example, email providers, website hosts, or payment processors. If we’re co-hosting an event, your details may be shared with collaborators, but only as needed and in line with privacy expectations. In rare cases, we may disclose data to comply with legal requirements or to protect our rights and safety. Any such partners are expected to maintain the same respect for privacy as we do.

Cookies and Tracking

You can manage cookies through your browser settings, and we’ll provide a separate cookie banner or notice where legally required.

Our site may link to other websites that we don’t control. If you click through to those, please review their privacy policies separately. We’re not responsible for how those sites handle your data.
