Terms and Privacy

1. About these terms

This website, degausstechnologies.com (the “Website”), is operated by Degauss Technologies (“Degauss”, “we”, “us” or “our”), with its office at C-28 & 29, Tower C, Bhutani Cyberpark, Sector 62, Noida, Uttar Pradesh 201301.

By accessing or using the Website you agree to these Terms and Conditions and to the Privacy Policy below. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website. These terms are an electronic record under the Information Technology Act, 2000 and the rules made under it, and do not require a physical or digital signature.

These terms cover your use of the Website only. Any services we provide to a client are governed by the separate written agreement signed with that client, which prevails over anything on this Website.

2. Using this website

You may use the Website for lawful purposes only. You agree not to:

• use the Website in a way that breaks any applicable law or regulation in India or elsewhere;
• attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Website, its servers, or any system or data connected to it, or interfere with its normal operation (including by introducing malware or overloading it);
• scrape, harvest or systematically collect content or data from the Website by automated means without our written permission;
• submit information that is false, misleading, or that belongs to someone else without their consent;
• impersonate any person or misrepresent your connection with any person or organisation.

We may suspend or restrict access to all or part of the Website at any time, for maintenance, security or any other reason, without notice.

3. Intellectual property

Unless stated otherwise, the content of the Website — including text, graphics, logos, design, layout and code — is owned by or licensed to Degauss and is protected by the Copyright Act, 1957, the Trade Marks Act, 1999 and other applicable laws. The name “Degauss Technologies” and our logo are our marks.

You may view and print pages for your personal, non-commercial reference. You may not copy, reproduce, modify, distribute, publish or create derivative works from any part of the Website without our prior written consent. Third-party names, marks and images shown on the Website belong to their respective owners.

4. Information on this website

The Website describes our company, services and open roles for general information. It is not an offer, proposal or contract, and it is not professional advice. Service descriptions, job postings and other content may change or be withdrawn at any time. A job posting is an invitation to apply and does not guarantee an interview or employment.

5. No warranty

We work to keep the Website accurate and available, but it is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we make no warranties or representations, express or implied, about the Website or its content, including that it will be accurate, complete, current, uninterrupted, secure or free of errors, viruses or other harmful components.

6. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Degauss and its directors, employees and partners will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive loss or damage, or for any loss of profit, revenue, data, goodwill or business opportunity, arising out of or in connection with your use of, or inability to use, the Website or any content on it, even if we were advised of the possibility.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

7. Third-party links

The Website may link to websites and services run by others, such as maps, social networks or partner sites. We provide these links for convenience only. We do not control and are not responsible for their content, availability or privacy practices, and a link does not mean we endorse them. Please read the terms and privacy policy of any third-party site you visit.

8. Overview

This Privacy Policy explains how Degauss, as a Data Fiduciary, collects and processes personal data through the Website. We process personal data in accordance with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (“DPDP Act”) and the rules made under it, and the Information Technology Act, 2000 and the rules made under it, as applicable.

We collect only the personal data we need for the purpose you share it for, and we do not sell your personal data.

9. Information we collect

We collect personal data only when you give it to us, and limited technical data when you visit:

• Contact form: your name, email address, and optionally your phone number and subject, along with the message you write.
• Job applications: your name, email address, phone number, optional cover note, your resume and anything it contains, and the job you applied for.
• Newsletter: your email address.
• Technical data: when you visit, our servers and hosting providers automatically record standard log information such as your IP address, browser type, device, pages requested and the date and time, for security and to keep the Website running.

Please do not send us sensitive information — such as financial, health or government identity details — through the Website unless we specifically ask for it.

10. How we use your information

We use personal data only for the purpose for which you provide it:

• to reply to your enquiry and continue the conversation you started;
• to assess your job application and contact you about it;
• to send you the newsletter you subscribed to;
• to keep the Website secure, prevent misuse and fix problems;
• to comply with our legal obligations and respond to lawful requests from authorities.

Where we rely on your consent, you give it by submitting the relevant form. You may withdraw consent at any time by writing to support@degausstechnologies.com. Withdrawal does not affect processing already carried out, and we may not be able to continue with your enquiry or application without the data.

11. Job applications and resume data

When you apply for a role, your application and resume are sent to our hiring team at hr@degausstechnologies.com and are used only to evaluate your suitability for that role and, if relevant, for similar roles at Degauss. They are seen only by the people involved in hiring.

We keep application data for as long as the role is open and for up to twelve (12) months after that, so we can contact you about suitable future openings, after which it is deleted. You may ask us to delete your application sooner at any time by writing to hr@degausstechnologies.com. If you join Degauss, your data becomes part of your employment records and is handled under our employee policies.

12. Contact form enquiries

Messages sent through the contact form are delivered to support@degausstechnologies.com and used to respond to you. We keep enquiry correspondence for as long as needed to deal with it and for our reasonable business records, and delete it when it is no longer needed for that purpose, unless the law requires us to keep it longer.

13. Newsletter

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we use your email address only to send it. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any newsletter email or by writing to support@degausstechnologies.com, after which we stop sending it and remove your address from the mailing list.

14. Cookies and analytics

The Website does not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. It may use storage in your browser that is strictly necessary for it to work — for example, to keep an authorised administrator signed in for the current browser session.

Some pages load resources from third-party providers, such as web fonts, which means your browser connects to those providers and they may receive your IP address. If we introduce analytics or any non-essential cookies, we will update this section and, where required, ask for your consent first. You can block or delete cookies and site data in your browser settings.

15. Sharing and transfers

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

• with service providers who process it on our behalf, such as hosting, database and email delivery providers, under contracts that require them to protect it and use it only on our instructions;
• when required by law, court order or a lawful request from a government authority;
• to protect the rights, property or safety of Degauss, our users or others;
• as part of a merger, acquisition or restructuring, subject to equivalent protection.

Our service providers may store or process data outside India. Any such transfer is made in line with the DPDP Act, including any restrictions notified by the Government of India.

16. Security

We use reasonable security practices and procedures to protect personal data, including encrypted connections (HTTPS), access controls that limit data to the people who need it, and secure hosting. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. If a personal data breach occurs, we will notify affected people and the Data Protection Board of India as required by law.

17. Your rights as a Data Principal

Under the DPDP Act, you have the right to:

• obtain a summary of the personal data we process about you and how we process it;
• have inaccurate or incomplete personal data corrected, completed or updated;
• have your personal data erased when it is no longer needed for the purpose it was collected for;
• withdraw consent you have given, as easily as you gave it;
• have your grievances addressed by us;
• nominate another person to exercise your rights in the event of your death or incapacity.

To exercise any of these rights, write to support@degausstechnologies.com. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request. As the DPDP Act requires, please provide accurate information and do not file false or frivolous complaints.

18. Children

The Website is intended for adults and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18 years of age. If you believe a child has shared personal data with us, please contact us and we will delete it.

19. Grievance redressal

If you have a question, concern or complaint about how we handle your personal data, or about these terms, please contact our Grievance Officer:

We will acknowledge your grievance and respond within the time required by applicable law. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may approach the Data Protection Board of India under the DPDP Act.

20. Governing law and jurisdiction

These terms and this Privacy Policy are governed by the laws of India. Subject to applicable law, the courts at Noida, District Gautam Buddh Nagar, Uttar Pradesh, have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or in connection with the Website, these terms or this Privacy Policy.

If any provision of these terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in full force. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it.

21. Changes to this page

We may update these terms and this Privacy Policy from time to time, for example to reflect changes in the law or in how the Website works. The “Last updated” date at the top shows when they last changed. Where a change materially affects how we use personal data you have already given us, we will take reasonable steps to let you know. Continuing to use the Website after an update means you accept the revised terms.
