Our Privacy Promise

  • Your profile is never publicly displayed, browsed, or searchable by other users.
  • Only our in-house matchmaking team reviews your profile.
  • Your contact details are disclosed only with your explicit consent, individually, for each disclosure.

1. Overview

TraditionalMatrimony.com ("we", "our", "us") is a private, admin-mediated matrimonial matchmaking platform, operated in India by Zoa Zone Services Pvt Ltd (Hyderabad, Telangana, India) and globally by Zoa Zone Services LLC (Bronx, New York, USA). We do not operate a public profile-browsing marketplace. Instead, our in-house matchmaking team reviews profiles confidentially and facilitates introductions directly — sharing match details only with each individual's explicit consent. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your information. By using our services, you agree to the practices described here.

2. Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information to provide and improve our services:

  • Profile Information: Name, date of birth, gender, religion, caste, education, occupation, family background, and partner preferences.
  • Contact Information: Email address, phone number, and WhatsApp number.
  • Photos: Profile photos, family photos, and identity/verification documents uploaded by you.
  • Preferences: Partner preferences, horoscope details, lifestyle choices, and matchmaking settings.
  • Usage Data: Pages visited, search queries, interactions with other profiles, login history, and device/browser information.
  • Payment Information: Transaction IDs, subscription plan details, and payment gateway data. All online payments are processed by our payment gateway partner, Cashfree Payments — we never store, process, or have access to your card, UPI, or bank credentials.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Create and manage your matrimonial profile.
  • Suggest compatible matches using our AI matchmaking engine.
  • Facilitate communication and connections between members.
  • Process payments and manage subscriptions.
  • Send transactional emails, OTPs, and platform notifications.
  • Improve platform safety through AI-powered fraud and content moderation.
  • Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.

4. Information Sharing

We share your information only in the following circumstances:

  • With Members: Your profile details (name, photos, education, preferences) are visible to other registered members as per your privacy settings and plan.
  • Service Providers: We use trusted third-party service providers (e.g., payment processors, email delivery, cloud hosting) who are bound by confidentiality agreements.
  • Legal Compliance: We may disclose your information if required by law, court order, or regulatory authority.

We do NOT sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes.

5. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including bank-grade encryption (HTTPS/TLS), AI-powered fraud detection, secure data storage, and access controls. While we take all reasonable precautions, no system is 100% secure. We encourage you to use a strong password and keep your login credentials confidential.

6. Your Rights, Data Retention & DPDP Compliance

You have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Access and Update: You can view and update your profile information at any time from your Dashboard.
  • Opt-Out: You can opt out of marketing communications by contacting us or using the unsubscribe link in emails.
  • Account Deletion: You may request deletion of your account and personal data by emailing care@zoazoneservices.com. We will process the request within 30 days, subject to legal retention requirements.

Data Retention:

We retain your profile and account data for as long as your membership is active or as needed to provide the service. After account deletion, we retain only the data required by law (for example, transaction and payment records for statutory retention periods); all other personal data is deleted or anonymised.

These rights are provided in accordance with India's Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, 2023 and applicable data-protection laws. You may nominate another individual to exercise your rights in specified circumstances, as permitted under the DPDP Act.
