How Curiosity Wise 77 handles your personal data

Effective Date: October 12, 2026 | Last Updated: October 12, 2026

1. Introduction

Curiosity Wise 77 ("we," "our" or "us") is a blog at https://curiositywise77.blogspot.com (the "Service"). It is run by Sumeet Tomar from Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, who we share it with and what choices you have.

We handle personal data in line with India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (the "DPDP Act"), the Digital Personal Data Protection Rules, 2025 and the Information Technology Act, 2000 with the rules made under it. In this policy you are the "Data Principal" and we are the "Data Fiduciary" as those terms are used in the DPDP Act.

Where the law requires your consent (for example for personalized advertising cookies or marketing emails) we ask for it separately and you can withdraw it at any time. Simply browsing the site does not mean you have agreed to anything beyond what this policy describes.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information You Provide Directly

Contact Information: Your name and email address when you email us or leave a comment
Communication Data: The content of messages you send to us
Feedback: Comments or suggestions you post

We do not ask for passwords, government ID numbers or bank and card details. Please do not send them to us. Any payment for a service you find through our links is made on the provider's own website and we never see your payment details.

2.2 Information Collected Automatically

Usage Data: Pages visited, time spent on the site and the page or search that referred you
Device Information: IP address, browser type, operating system and approximate location
Cookies and Similar Technologies: Small data files and web beacons (tiny image or script requests) stored on or read from your device by us or by our partners such as Google
Advertising Data: Information that Google and its advertising partners collect to show and measure ads (see section 4)

3. How We Use Your Information

We use personal data only for the purposes below and not for anything incompatible with them:

To provide and maintain our Service
To respond to your messages and requests
To understand which pages are read so that we can improve our content
To show advertisements and measure how they perform
To track referrals from our links so that we can earn affiliate commissions
To detect, prevent and address technical issues and abuse
To comply with legal obligations

Our main ground for processing is your consent. We also process limited data without separate consent where the DPDP Act allows it, for example when you voluntarily send us a message and expect a reply.

4. Advertising (Google AdSense)

We show ads on this website through Google AdSense. This is how the site earns part of its income. These points apply to the ads:

Third-party vendors including Google use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this website or other websites.
Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and other sites on the Internet.
Google may use the DoubleClick advertising cookie and similar technologies for this purpose.
You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info.
To learn how Google uses data from sites that use its services read How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services and Google's advertising policies.

We do not choose which advertiser or ad you see and we do not receive your name, email address or other details that identify you from Google's ad system. Ads are not directed at children and we ask you not to click ads for any reason other than genuine interest. We never ask visitors to click on ads.

5. Affiliate Marketing Disclosure

Important: Curiosity Wise 77 takes part in Fiverr's affiliate program. Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and place a qualifying order we may earn a commission. The price you pay does not change.

Disclosure on our pages: We place a clear notice near affiliate links or at the top of any post that contains them. This follows the endorsement and testimonial guidelines of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, the disclosure rules of the programs we join and the endorsement guidelines in India.

How Fiverr tracking works: When you click a Fiverr affiliate link Fiverr may place a cookie or similar identifier on your browser so that it can credit us for a later sign-up or purchase. Fiverr sets this identifier when you click and not when you merely read our page. We use only the links Fiverr provides and we do not alter them.

What we receive: Fiverr reports referral and commission activity to us. We do not receive your Fiverr login details, your payment information or the contents of your orders.

Third-party privacy practices: Once you reach Fiverr or any other third-party site that site's own privacy policy applies. We do not control third-party sites and are not responsible for their privacy practices.

Our recommendations: We aim to keep our reviews and recommendations honest whether or not a link pays us.

6. Other Third-Party Services

6.1 Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics, loaded through Google Tag Manager, to understand how visitors use the site. It uses cookies to collect information such as pages visited, time on site, approximate location, device type and traffic sources. The data is used in aggregate. We do not send names, email addresses or any other information that directly identifies you to Google Analytics and we do not combine analytics data with such information.

You can stop Google Analytics from collecting data about your visits by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

6.2 Hosting on Blogger

Our site is hosted on Blogger, a Google service. Blogger and Google may collect technical data such as IP address and browser details when you visit the site and may set cookies of their own. If you comment using a Google account your public profile name and photo may be displayed next to your comment.

6.3 Social Media and Embedded Content

If a post includes a social media button or an embedded post or video (for example from Pinterest or YouTube) that content can collect information about your visit when it loads. Those platforms handle that data under their own privacy policies.

7. Cookies and Consent

Types of Cookies on This Site:

Essential Cookies: Set by Blogger and Google so that the site works and features such as comments function
Analytics Cookies: Help us understand how visitors use the site (Google Analytics)
Advertising Cookies: Set by Google and its partners to show and measure ads (Google AdSense)
Affiliate Tracking Cookies: Set by Fiverr after you click one of its affiliate links
Embedded Content Cookies: Set by a platform such as YouTube or Pinterest only on pages where its content is embedded

Consent: Cookies that are not essential are used only with your consent where the law requires it. Visitors from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland are shown a consent message from a Google-certified consent tool and personalized ads and analytics cookies are used only if they agree. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time through the privacy and cookie settings link on the site where it is shown or through your browser.

Managing Cookies: You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings. If you disable cookies some parts of the site may not work properly and you will still see ads but they will be less relevant to you.

8. Sharing and International Transfers

We do not sell your personal data. We share it only with:

Google (Blogger hosting, AdSense advertising and Google Analytics)
Affiliate partners such as Fiverr when you click their links because your browser connects to their site and passes basic technical information
Service providers who help us run the site or send emails under confidentiality obligations
Authorities when a law, court order or legal process requires it

Google and other providers process data on servers in several countries so your information may be transferred to and stored outside India. The DPDP Act permits such transfers except to countries the Government of India restricts. Data protection laws elsewhere may differ from Indian law.

9. How Long We Keep Your Data

We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purpose it was collected for and then delete or anonymize it unless a law requires us to keep it longer.

Messages and emails to us: Kept while we deal with your request and for a reasonable period afterward in case of follow-up
Comments: Stay published until you ask us to remove them or we remove them for breaking our rules
Analytics and advertising data: Kept by Google under the retention settings in our account and in Google's own policies

10. Data Security

We take reasonable security steps to protect your personal data. No method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

HTTPS encryption for data in transit
Hosting on Google's Blogger infrastructure
Access to personal data limited to people who need it
Regular review of the tools and scripts we add to the site

If a personal data breach affects you we will tell you and the Data Protection Board of India as the law requires.

11. Your Rights

Under the DPDP Act you have the right to:

Access: Get a summary of the personal data we process about you and how we process it
Correction and Completion: Ask us to correct inaccurate data and complete or update incomplete data
Erasure: Ask us to erase your personal data unless we must keep it by law
Withdraw Consent: Withdraw any consent you gave us at any time. Withdrawal is as easy as giving consent and it does not affect processing done before you withdrew

Nominate: Name another person to exercise your rights if you die or cannot act for yourself

To use any of these rights email officialst579@gmail.com or use the contact page. We may ask you to confirm your identity first.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has given us personal data please contact us and we will delete it.

14. Visitors from the EEA, UK and Switzerland

If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland local data protection law also applies. We rely on your consent for cookies used for analytics and personalized advertising and on our legitimate interest in keeping the site secure and working. You also have the right to object to or restrict processing, to receive a copy of your data in a portable format and to complain to your local data protection authority.

15. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the new version on this page and change the "Last Updated" date at the top. If a change is significant we will make that clear on the site and ask for your consent again where the law requires it.
