Privacy

This covers what we record when you use this website, and the information you give when you apply for, pay for or attend Sunday Morning Build Club or a Chemistry Labs Practical. It is held by Manav Joshi, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India.

What we collect

• What you type into the application form: name, phone number, email, the city you live in, gender, age group, links, what you're building, why you want to come, and how you heard about us.
• Our WhatsApp conversation with you.
• Whether you paid, came, and what you wrote on the feedback form afterwards.

What we use it for

• Deciding who to invite, so each room has the right mix of people.
• Sending your invite, payment details, reminders and the venue on WhatsApp.
• Improving the events, using your feedback.

Who else sees it

Our small team running the event, and the services that store it or carry our messages: Google (forms and sheets), Cloudflare (our database), WhatsApp, and our payment provider. We do not sell your information or share it with advertisers.

Payments

Card and bank details go directly to the payment provider. We never see or store them.

What we measure on this website

We record how people use this website, so that we can improve it and see which posts bring people who come: where a visit came from, the pages and sections seen, how far down people read, what they pressed, how long they stayed, the device and rough city, and how fast the page loaded. We tie this to a random id kept in your browser, not to your name, and we do not store your IP address.

We never record what you type into a form, apart from the application itself. When you apply, we store a coded version of your phone number with that visit, so that we can tell which posts lead to people coming to a room. We use Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity for this as well. Clarity makes recordings of how people move through a page, with forms blanked out. We keep our own records for 13 months. To turn all of this off on your device, open this link once, or write to work@manavjoshi.com.

Deleting your information

Write to work@manavjoshi.com and we will delete it. We keep a record of a payment only as long as the law requires.
