Privacy Policy — Agriculture Novel App

---

1. Who we are

Agriculture Novel (“we”, “our”) operates the website agriculturenovel.co and the Agriculture Novel Android application. The app is a Trusted Web Activity that displays our website content. For questions, contact us at @ranjeetnatarajan32 gmail.com / ranjeet@agriculturenovel.co .

2. Information we collect

Information you provide voluntarily. If you use our AI advisory chat (AgriBot), the questions you type are sent to our servers and to our AI processing provider (Anthropic) to generate answers. If you submit an article or comment, the content you submit and the name/email you provide are stored on our servers.

Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our servers and analytics tools record standard technical data: IP address, device type, browser type, pages visited, and approximate region. This is used for site performance, security, and understanding readership.

Advertising. We display advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies and device identifiers to serve ads, including personalised ads, based on your visits to this and other websites. You can learn how Google uses data at https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites and manage ad personalisation at https://adssettings.google.com.

3. What we do NOT collect

The app does not request access to your contacts, camera, microphone, photos, precise GPS location, or files. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

4. How we use information

To operate and improve the website and app, answer your agricultural questions through AgriBot, publish contributor articles, display advertising that funds free access to our 19,000+ articles, and protect the platform from abuse.

5. Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. Data is shared only with service providers needed to run the platform: our hosting provider, Google (AdSense, Analytics), and Anthropic (AI chat processing). These providers process data under their own privacy commitments.

6. Data retention and your rights

Chat queries and analytics data are retained only as long as needed for the purposes above. You may request access to or deletion of personal data you have submitted by emailing ranjeet@agriculturenovel.co . We comply with applicable Indian data protection law, including the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.

7. Security

We use HTTPS encryption for all traffic between your device and our servers, and apply reasonable technical safeguards on our hosting infrastructure.

8. Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be available at this URL with an updated effective date.
