Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes how Master-Brains and its affiliates (collectively, "Master-Brains", "we", "our", "us") collect, use, share, protect or otherwise process your information/personal data through our website https://master-brains.com (the "Platform"). You may browse certain sections of the Platform without registering with us. We do not offer any product/service under this Platform outside India, and your personal data will primarily be stored and processed in India. By visiting this Platform, providing your information, or availing any product/service offered on the Platform, you expressly agree to be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy, the Terms of Use, and the applicable service/product terms, and agree to be governed by the laws of India, including those applicable to data protection and privacy. If you do not agree, please do not use or access our Platform.
Collection
We collect your personal data when you use our Platform, our services, or otherwise interact with us during the course of our relationship. This may include information provided during enquiry, registration, or use of our Platform, such as your name, date of birth, address, telephone/mobile number, and email ID, and/or any information shared as proof of identity or address. Some sensitive personal data may be collected with your consent, such as bank account, credit/debit card, or other payment-instrument information when you make a payment through our payment gateway partner (PhonePe), all in accordance with applicable law. You always have the option not to provide information by choosing not to use a particular service or feature on the Platform. We may track your behaviour, preferences and other information you choose to provide on our Platform; this information is compiled and analysed on an aggregated basis. We will also collect information related to your transactions on the Platform and with relevant third-party business partners (such as project developers or our payment gateway). When a third-party business partner collects your personal data directly from you (for example, PhonePe processing your payment), you will be governed by their privacy policy; we are not responsible for third-party privacy practices, and we request you to read their privacy policies before disclosing any information. If you receive an email or call from a person/association claiming to be Master-Brains and seeking any personal data like debit/credit card PIN, net-banking or mobile-banking password, please never provide such information, and report it immediately to an appropriate law-enforcement agency.
Usage
We use personal data to provide the services you request. To the extent we use your personal data to market to you, we will provide you the ability to opt out of such uses. We use your personal data to assist developers/sellers and business partners in handling and fulfilling bookings/enquiries; enhancing customer experience; resolving disputes; troubleshooting problems; informing you about offers, projects, services and updates; customising your experience; detecting and protecting against error, fraud and other criminal activity; enforcing our terms and conditions; and conducting marketing research, analysis and surveys. Your access to our Services may be affected if you do not provide the necessary permissions.
Sharing
We may share your personal data internally within our group/affiliated entities to provide you access to the services offered by them. We may disclose personal data to third parties such as project developers/sellers, our payment gateway partner (PhonePe), and other service providers, where necessary to provide you access to our Services, comply with our legal obligations, enforce our user agreement, facilitate marketing/advertising activities, or prevent, detect, mitigate and investigate fraudulent or illegal activities. We may disclose personal and sensitive personal data to government agencies or law-enforcement authorities if required by law, or in the good-faith belief that such disclosure is reasonably necessary to respond to subpoenas, court orders, or other legal process; to enforce our Terms of Use or this Privacy Policy; to respond to claims that content violates a third party's rights; or to protect the rights, property or personal safety of our users or the general public.
Security Precautions
To protect your personal data from unauthorised access or disclosure, loss or misuse, we adopt reasonable security practices and procedures, including use of a secure server for payments (via our PhonePe integration). However, transmission of information over the internet is not completely secure for reasons beyond our control, and users accept the inherent risks of data transmission over the internet when using the Platform. Users are responsible for protecting their own login and account credentials.
Data Deletion and Retention
You may write to us at the contact information below to request deletion, access, or correction of your personal data. We may delay or decline a deletion request where there is a pending grievance, claim, booking, or other service obligation. We retain personal data only for as long as is required for the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law, and may retain data in anonymised form for analytical and research purposes, or where necessary to prevent fraud or future abuse.
Your Rights
You may access, rectify, and update your personal data by contacting us directly using the details below.
Consent
By visiting our Platform or providing your information, you consent to the collection, use, storage, disclosure and processing of your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. You consent to us (and our affiliates, technology and marketing partners, and business partners) contacting you through SMS, instant messaging apps (including WhatsApp), calls and/or email for the purposes specified in this Privacy Policy. You may withdraw consent already provided by writing to our Grievance Officer below, with the subject line "Withdrawal of consent for processing personal data". We may verify such requests before acting on them. Withdrawal of consent will not be retrospective and will be subject to the Terms of Use, this Privacy Policy, and applicable law; we reserve the right to restrict or deny Services where the withdrawn information was necessary to provide them.
Changes to this Privacy Policy
Please check this Privacy Policy periodically for changes. We may update it to reflect changes to our information practices, and will notify you of significant changes as required under applicable law.
Grievance Officer
Refund & Cancellation Policy
This policy outlines how you can cancel, or seek a refund for, an amount paid through the Platform via our PhonePe payment gateway. Master-Brains is a real estate sales, channel-partner and consultancy service — we do not sell or ship physical goods, so this policy covers amounts such as site-visit/consultation booking fees and booking tokens/EMDs paid towards a plot.
- Site-visit / consultation booking fees — Cancellations will be considered if the request is made within 10 days of the payment, and before the scheduled visit/consultation has taken place. Once the visit or consultation has been completed, the fee is non-refundable.
- Booking tokens / EMDs towards a plot — Cancellations will only be considered if the request is made within 10 days of placing the booking/making the payment. Cancellation requests may not be entertained if the specific plot/unit has already been formally blocked or allotted to you with the developer/seller on the basis of your payment, or if statutory/registration formalities have already commenced — in such cases, you may still raise the request and our team will check with the concerned developer/seller on your behalf.
- If you believe an error occurred in the amount charged (for example, a wrong amount or a duplicate payment), please report it to our customer service team within 10 days of the transaction. We will verify the transaction with PhonePe and/or our records and take an appropriate decision.
- Any project-specific commitments made by a developer (such as construction quality, timelines, or statutory approvals) are governed by your direct agreement with that developer, not by Master-Brains as the sales/channel-partner intermediary. Complaints of this nature should also be referred to the concerned developer.
- Approved refunds will be processed back to your original payment source (via PhonePe) within 30 days of approval.
Return Policy
Master-Brains is a real estate sales, channel-partner and consultancy service. We do not sell, deliver or ship any physical products through this Platform, so there is no "return" or "exchange" of goods applicable to our Services. Any amount paid through the Platform (such as a site-visit/consultation booking fee or a booking token/EMD) is governed by our Refund & Cancellation Policy above, not by this Return Policy.
Shipping Policy
Not applicable. master-brains.com does not sell, ship, or deliver any physical goods. All our offerings are real estate advisory, sales-facilitation and consultancy services, delivered in person (site visits, meetings) or digitally (calls, WhatsApp, email, video consultation).
Any physical documents connected with a property transaction (such as agreements, receipts, or registration paperwork) are handled directly between you and the concerned developer/seller, or shared with you digitally or in person by our team, as applicable — no courier or postal shipping is involved on our part.
