We collect only the information reasonably needed to respond to enquiries, manage yoga services, communicate with participants and support safer practice. We do not sell personal information and we do not create psychotherapy records.
1. Overview
AntarLaya Yogashala respects the privacy of people who enquire, enrol, attend a class, use our website or participate in a workplace or community programme. This policy explains the limited information we collect and how we use it.
AntarLaya is a yoga and wellbeing service. We do not create psychotherapy records or provide medical diagnosis through this website.
2. Information we may collect
- Name, phone number, email address and city or locality.
- Age range, preferred language, session mode, availability and service interests.
- Booking, attendance, membership, payment and communication records.
- Emergency contact information when reasonably required for an in-person or higher-risk programme.
- Messages, feedback, reviews, enquiries and consent preferences.
- Corporate contact details and programme requirements when an organisation enquires.
Please avoid sending unnecessary medical documents or highly sensitive personal information through website forms, email or WhatsApp.
3. Health and safety information
To guide practice more safely, we may ask participants to voluntarily disclose information relevant to yoga participation, such as pregnancy, recent surgery, injury, chronic pain, restricted mobility, high or low blood pressure, heart concerns, vertigo, glaucoma, hernia or other conditions that may affect practice.
- This information is used for screening, modification and safety communication.
- It does not create a doctor–patient, physiotherapist–patient or therapist–client relationship.
- Participants remain responsible for obtaining medical clearance when appropriate.
- Only information reasonably relevant to participation should be shared.
4. How we use information
- To respond to enquiries and recommend a suitable service format.
- To confirm enrolment, schedule classes and manage memberships.
- To communicate changes, reminders, practice instructions and safety information.
- To adapt a practice within the instructor’s scope and decide whether referral or medical clearance is appropriate.
- To maintain basic business, attendance, payment and compliance records.
- To improve our website, programmes and client experience.
- To prevent misuse, resolve disputes and protect participants, instructors and AntarLaya.
5. Website data, analytics and cookies
When you visit the website, standard technical information may be processed, including IP address, device type, browser, approximate location, pages viewed and referral source.
We may use essential browser storage for theme or navigation preferences and analytics tools to understand website usage. You can restrict cookies through your browser, although some functionality may be affected.
The website may embed or link to third-party services such as Google Maps, WhatsApp, telephone, email and externally hosted images. Those providers process information under their own privacy terms.
6. When information may be shared
We do not sell or rent personal information.
Information may be shared only when reasonably necessary with:
- an AntarLaya instructor or authorised team member involved in your programme;
- website hosting, analytics, communication or technical service providers;
- a corporate client where the programme was booked by that organisation, limited to operational information such as aggregate participation unless otherwise authorised;
- professional advisers, authorities or emergency responders when legally required or reasonably necessary to protect safety and rights.
Individual health disclosures will not ordinarily be shared with an employer or other participant without consent, except where law or immediate safety requires it.
7. Storage, security and retention
We use reasonable organisational and technical safeguards appropriate to a small yoga and wellbeing practice. However, no website, email, messaging platform or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.
Information is retained only as long as reasonably required for service delivery, safety, accounting, dispute handling or legal obligations. Routine enquiry information may be deleted when no longer useful. Certain payment or business records may be retained for longer where required.
8. Your choices and requests
You may ask us to correct inaccurate contact information, update communication preferences, withdraw optional consent or request deletion of information that is no longer required.
Some information may need to be retained where deletion would conflict with legal obligations, payment records, safety documentation or an ongoing dispute. To make a request, contact us using the details below. We may verify identity before acting.
9. Children and participants under 18
Participation by a person under 18 requires involvement and consent from a parent or lawful guardian. The guardian should provide relevant safety information and remain responsible for the minor’s participation arrangements.
The website is not designed to knowingly collect information directly from young children without guardian involvement.
10. Policy updates and contact
We may update this policy as the website, programmes or legal requirements change. The effective date at the top identifies the current version.
