1. Introduction
Sochcraft (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates Sochcraft.com, a blog about digital marketing. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use it, how we protect it, and your rights.

Important legal context: India has recently passed the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act).

We design this policy to follow applicable Indian requirements and relevant global best practices. Wikipedia+1
