Privacy policy

This policy describes what personal data Izel Legal (“we”, “us”) collects from visitors and clients, how we use it, and the rights you hold over it — under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP) and the DPDP Rules.

Last updated 21 April 2026.

What we collect

We collect only what we need to run a legal consultancy and an education practice: your name, email address, phone number, the facts and documents you choose to share on a discovery call or during an engagement, and any materials (drafts, applications, answer scripts) you submit to us for review within a course.

Purpose

Purposes are limited to (a) delivering the consultation, course, or seminar you have booked; (b) responding to enquiries; (c) billing, invoicing and statutory compliance (including GST reporting); and (d) with your consent, occasional updates about courses you have expressed an interest in.

Grievance officer

Under § 10 of the DPDP Act, we have appointed a Grievance Officer. You may reach them at grievances@izel-legal.com. Grievances are acknowledged within 48 hours and resolved within 30 days.

Who we share it with

We do not sell your data. Processor relationships are limited to: Resend (transactional email), Cal.com (scheduling), and Vercel (hosting). Each processor has signed a written data-processing agreement compliant with the DPDP Rules.

Retention

Enquiry emails: 24 months. Consultation records and written opinions: 7 years, consistent with the Bar Council of India’s record-keeping conventions. Course enrolment and assessment records: 3 years post-completion. Financial records: 8 years, per the Income Tax Act, 1961 and the Companies Act, 2013.

Your rights

You may request access to, correction of, or erasure of your personal data at any time by writing to grievances@izel-legal.com. We respond within the statutory timelines. Where erasure would conflict with our statutory retention obligations (tax, Bar Council), we will explain the conflict and the residual data category.
