Adi Kailash Yatra Privacy Policy

Your Data in the Valley: We respect your privacy as deeply as we respect the mountains. This Adi Kailash Privacy Policy outlines how we protect your identity and medical data during the pilgrimage.

Our Vow of Privacy

At Adi Kailash Devnagri, we are travelers, not data brokers. We collect your personal information (Name, Aadhar, Medical History) for one specific purpose: to secure your Inner Line Permits (ILP) and safety clearances with the District Administration of Pithoragarh. We never sell your data.

Data Usage in Our Adi Kailash Privacy Policy

For Permits (ILP)

Your Aadhar Card & Photos are shared strictly with the SDM Office and ITBP (Indo-Tibetan Border Police) to generate your restricted area passes. This is a government mandate.

For Medical Safety

Your Medical Certificate is shared only with your Trip Captain. This ensures we are ready with Oxygen/First Aid specific to your health history during the high-altitude trek.

No Spam Policy

We do not share your phone number with hotels or third-party advertisers. It is used strictly for Yatra updates and emergency coordination.

Extended Privacy Protocols

1. How long do we keep your data?

Under the standard Adi Kailash Privacy Policy, we retain your permit documents for 6 months post-Yatra as per local administration requirements for audit purposes. After this period, digital copies are permanently purged from our offline servers in Dharchula.

2. Payment Security (Advance & Settlement)

We operate on a “Direct-to-Bank” model. For your 25% advance registration, we share official payment links or UPI IDs via our verified WhatsApp channels. You pay directly through your own banking app. The remaining balance is settled securely upon your arrival at Dharchula (Base Camp) via Bank Transfer or Cash. Adi Kailash Devnagri never sees or stores your card numbers, passwords, or PINs.

3. Cookies & Digital Tracking

Our website uses basic cookies to improve your browsing experience (e.g., remembering your language preference). These cookies do not track your movement outside our domain. By using our site, you agree to the terms laid out in this Adi Kailash Privacy Policy.

Digital Memories & Social Media

We don’t just guide; we document the divine. To keep the spirit of Adi Kailash Devnagri alive, we share the raw, unfiltered joy of our journeys on our Instagram and Facebook pages. By joining, you become a part of this beautiful visual story that inspires future pilgrims.

Your Space, Your Choice: If you are camera-shy or on a private spiritual quest, simply let your Trip Captain know on Day 1. We will happily respect your privacy and keep you off-frame.

Leaving No Trace: Just as we keep the Himalayas pristine, we respect your digital footprint. If you wish to scrub your personal data after the Yatra is complete, simply, drop us a message directly.
