We keep this simple: we collect as little as possible, we ask before we track, and we never sell your data. Here's exactly what happens.

PyData Indore ("we", "us", "our") runs this website at indore.pydata.org as part of the global PyData community, an educational program of NumFOCUS, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit the site, why we collect it, and the choices you have.
We use privacy-friendly analytics that only run after you accept cookies, and we collect contact details only when you choose to send us a message. We don't sell your data or use it for advertising.
If you accept cookies via our banner, we use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use the site — for example, which pages are popular and how people arrive here. This helps us improve the content and plan better events. The data we receive is aggregated and includes things like pages viewed, approximate location (city/country), device and browser type, and referring site.
We enable IP anonymization, so your full IP address is never stored by Google Analytics. We do not use analytics for advertising, and ad-related data collection is disabled.
When you use our contact form, you provide your name, email address, a subject, and your message. We use this solely to read and respond to your enquiry. Submissions are processed by Formspree and delivered to our team's inbox (indore@pydata.org).
We don't ask you to create an account, we don't run advertising trackers, and we don't build marketing profiles. Beyond the two cases above, we don't collect personal information.
A cookie is a small file a website stores in your browser. When you first visit, we show a cookie banner and set analytics to denied by default — no analytics cookies are set until you choose.
We use Google Consent Mode v2, which means tracking genuinely does not begin until consent is granted — it isn't just hidden behind a banner.
You can withdraw or change consent at any time by clearing this site's data (cookies and local storage) in your browser settings. The banner will then reappear on your next visit so you can choose again. You can also install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to anyone.
We rely on a small number of trusted service providers, each with their own privacy policies:
We may also share information with NumFOCUS where necessary for community administration. We only share what's needed, and never for advertising.
Analytics data is retained by Google Analytics according to our configured retention period and then automatically deleted. Contact-form messages are kept only as long as needed to handle your enquiry and for reasonable follow-up, after which they are deleted.
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
To exercise any of these, just email us — see below. We'll respond as promptly as we can.
This website is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will delete it.
Our site links to external sites (sponsors, partners, PyData Global, social media, event platforms). We're not responsible for their privacy practices — please review their policies when you visit them.
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we'll revise the "Last updated" date at the top. Significant changes will be highlighted on the site.
If you have any questions about this policy or how we handle your data, we're happy to help.
