You may withdraw consent at any time by requesting account deletion. Withdrawal of consent will result in termination of your account as services cannot be provided without necessary data.

4. How We Protect Your Data
- All sensitive data (Aadhaar images, PAN images, bank details) is stored using AES-256-GCM encryption.
- Aadhaar numbers are never stored in plaintext, complying with UIDAI Authentication Regulations.
- Payment card data is never stored — handled entirely by Razorpay (PCI-DSS certified).
- All data is transmitted over HTTPS/TLS.
- Access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel and systems only.

5. Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal data. We share it only:

- With regulators — when required by law (tax authorities, courts, law enforcement).
6. Data Retention
