Privacy & Cookie Policy
This policy explains how Raintree Partners (“Raintree”, “we”, “us”) collects, uses and protects personal information, through our website at raintreepartners.in and in the course of our business. Raintree is a real estate financing advisory firm based in Bengaluru, India.
1. Information we collect
- Information you give us. When you submit our enquiry form, we collect your name, email address, phone number, company and the details of your message. When you call, email or message us on WhatsApp, we receive the details you choose to share.
- Your cookie choice. When you accept, reject or change cookie settings, your choice (analytics on/off, marketing on/off) is stored only in your own browser.
- Information collected automatically. If you allow analytics or marketing cookies, technical information such as device type, browser, pages viewed and approximate location is collected through cookies and similar technologies.
- Business contact information from other sources. We may hold business contact details (name, company, role, business email address and phone number) of real estate developers and their directors or officers, obtained from public sources or from business contacts, so that we can introduce our services to them.
2. How we use your information
- To respond to your enquiry and communicate with you about your requirement.
- To keep a record of enquiries we receive, so that none is missed.
- To understand how visitors use our site so we can improve it (only if you allow analytics cookies).
- To measure and improve our advertising (only if you allow marketing cookies).
- To show our advertisements to business contacts we hold. We may upload business email addresses and phone numbers to advertising platforms such as Meta in hashed (encrypted) form. The platform uses the hashed data only to match it to its users so that our ads can be shown to them. If you do not want this, email us and we will remove your details from these lists.
We do not sell your personal information.
3. Cookies and your choices
Cookies are small files stored on your device. We group them as follows:
| Type | Purpose | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Essential | Needed for the site to work, including remembering your cookie choice in your browser. | Always on |
| Analytics | Help us understand how the site is used (Google Analytics). | Off until you allow it |
| Marketing | Used to measure and improve our advertising (Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag). | Off until you allow it |
On your first visit we ask for your choice: Accept all, Reject all, or Manage settings to choose by category. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time, as easily as you gave it, through the Cookie settings link at the bottom of every page.
We use Google Consent Mode. Until you allow them, analytics and advertising cookies are not set on your device. Google may still receive limited measurement signals that do not use cookies, as Consent Mode permits.
The map in our contact section is provided by Google Maps. Google may set its own cookies when the map loads.
4. Service providers
We use a small number of providers who process data on our behalf or as independent controllers. Some of them may store or process data outside India.
- Google — Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (site analytics and tag management); Google Maps (map in the contact section).
- FormSubmit — delivers enquiry-form submissions to our email inbox.
- Microsoft 365 — our email service.
- WhatsApp (Meta) — if you message us on WhatsApp, WhatsApp’s own terms and privacy policy also apply.
- Meta (Facebook/Instagram) and LinkedIn — advertising and advertising measurement, as described above.
- Netlify — website hosting.
These providers have their own privacy policies governing how they handle data.
5. Data retention
We keep enquiry information only as long as needed to respond to your enquiry and manage any resulting engagement, and as required for legal, tax or regulatory purposes. When information is no longer needed, we delete it.
6. Security
We use reasonable security safeguards to protect personal information, and access to enquiry records is limited to Raintree’s partners.
7. Your rights
Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, you may ask us to give you a summary of the personal data we hold about you, to correct, complete, update or erase it, to withdraw any consent you have given, and to nominate another person to exercise these rights for you. You can also raise a grievance with us. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may complain to the Data Protection Board of India. Visitors in the European Economic Area or the UK have rights under the GDPR. To exercise any right, contact us using the details below.
