Privacy Policy

Mind Theory ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website mindtheory.in (the "Site") and its associated YouTube channel. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you use the Site, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Information We Collect

Information you give us directly

If you subscribe to our newsletter, submit a message through our contact form, or take a quiz, we may collect information you choose to provide — such as your name, email address, and the content of your message. Quiz answers are processed in your browser to show you a result; we do not store individual quiz answers on our servers.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, we automatically receive certain information when you visit the Site, including your IP address, browser type, device type, pages viewed, time spent on pages, and referring/exit pages. This is collected through standard server logs and, where applicable, cookies.

2. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help websites remember information about your visit. We and our third-party partners (including Google, for advertising and analytics purposes) may use cookies to:

• Remember your preferences between visits
• Understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it
• Serve ads that are relevant to your interests, where advertising is enabled on the Site

Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this Site or other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings. You can also set your browser to refuse cookies or alert you when cookies are being sent; note that some parts of the Site may not function properly if cookies are disabled. For a full breakdown of the specific cookies we and our partners use, see our Cookie Policy.

3. How We Use Information

• To operate, maintain, and improve the Site and its content
• To respond to messages sent through our contact form
• To send newsletter emails to subscribers who have opted in, and to let them unsubscribe at any time
• To understand aggregate usage patterns (e.g., which articles or quizzes are popular) so we can create better content
• To detect, prevent, and address technical issues, abuse, or fraud

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

4. Third-Party Advertising

Mind Theory may work with third-party advertising companies, including Google AdSense, to serve ads when you visit the Site. These companies may use non-personally-identifiable information about your visits to this and other websites to provide advertisements about goods and services that may interest you. This processing is governed by the respective privacy policies of those third parties, which we encourage you to review.

5. Embedded Content

Pages on this Site may include embedded content, such as YouTube videos. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you visited that website directly, and that website may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content.

6. Children's Privacy

Mind Theory's content is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected such information, we will delete it promptly.

7. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational steps to protect the information you share with us. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Your Choices

• You can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time using the link in any email we send
• You can request that we delete personal information you've submitted (e.g., through the contact form) by emailing us
• You can control cookies through your browser settings

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted means you accept the updated policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
