Privacy Policy
As a taxation and compliance practice, protecting client confidentiality is at the heart of everything we do. This policy explains in plain language how VJ & Associates collects, uses and safeguards the details you share.
1. Information We Collect
Details you voluntarily provide when reaching out or requesting consultations.
We collect personal details that you voluntarily share through our enquiry form (which opens WhatsApp), WhatsApp, phone or email — such as your name, phone number, email address, business name and message.
This website has no login and does not run advertising trackers. We use Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages are useful (see section 5), and we do not record your IP address in any database of ours. Our hosting provider keeps standard server logs for security, as all web hosts do.
Key Principle: We only gather information necessary to answer your enquiries and provide tailored guidance.
2. How We Use Your Information
Using your data exclusively to deliver advisory services and respond to enquiries.
The personal information you provide is used strictly to respond to your enquiries, schedule consultations with Vinay Jaglan, prepare fee proposals, and communicate updates about your filings.
We do not engage in spam marketing, automated robocalls, or commercial mailing-list reselling.
Key Principle: Your data is used solely to assist you with your tax and compliance needs.
3. Handling of Financial & Tax Documents
Sensitive tax records and PAN/GST documents are never stored on this website.
Client confidentiality is the cornerstone of our practice. Tax ledgers, AIS / Form 26AS (Form 168 from Tax Year 2026-27), PAN/Aadhaar proofs and financial statements shared during an engagement are handled separately from the website.
This public website is purely informational. The enquiry form does not upload anything — it only prepares a WhatsApp message on your own device.
Key Principle: Client financial records are isolated from the web server and kept confidential.
4. Zero Third-Party Selling & Data Sharing
We never sell your data. Information is shared only for statutory filings.
VJ & Associates does NOT sell, rent, lease or trade your personal or business data to advertisers, data brokers or marketing networks under any circumstances.
Information is shared only (a) when submitting returns or forms to government portals (Income Tax Department, GSTN, MCA, TRACES) on your instruction, (b) within our team of Chartered Accountants, Company Secretaries and Tax Advocates, only to the extent your matter requires, or (c) when required by law.
Key Principle: Your information is shared only with government portals and our professional team, as authorised by you.
5. Cookies & Local Storage
Minimal browser storage, only for site functionality.
The site stores a few small values in your own browser: your light/dark theme choice, whether the opening animation has played in this session, and — if you use them — ticks on the document checklists. Nothing is sent to us.
We do not use advertising cookies or cross-site tracking. The office map loads Google Maps only after you click “Load map”.
Google Analytics: apart from the storage above, we use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the site is used. It sets its own first-party cookies and tells us things like the pages viewed, approximate city, device type, and clicks on our WhatsApp, call, email and booking buttons. It does not give us your name, phone number or email, the details you type into the booking form are never sent to it, and we do not use it for advertising. You can block it through your browser's cookie settings or with Google's opt-out add-on (tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout).
Key Principle: Browser storage is used only for site functionality and your preferences.
6. Data Security & Storage Controls
SSL encryption and administrative safeguards.
The website is served over HTTPS. Documents received during an engagement are kept with restricted access and retained only as long as needed for the engagement, follow-up proceedings and legal record-keeping.
Physical records at our Jind office are kept in locked storage with access control.
Key Principle: Encryption and access controls safeguard your records.
7. Your Rights (DPDP Act, 2023)
Access, correction, erasure and grievance redressal.
Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 you may ask what personal data we hold about you, ask us to correct or update it, ask us to erase it where it is no longer needed for the purpose or for legal record-keeping, and withdraw consent for future processing.
To exercise any right, email info@vjassociates.co or send a written request on WhatsApp (+91 80537 80570). We respond within a reasonable time and in any case within the period the law requires.
Key Principle: You stay in control of your contact data and can request deletion any time.
