WaraYana is committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. This privacy policy explains how we process customer information and the procedures that we have in place to safeguard your privacy.

The GPDR requires website administrators to provide a responsible approach to your private data, the way we use it, how it is stored and what you can do if your data is breached or is misused. This is a European requirement and reinforced version of existing privacy legislation, that has arisen following several serious breaches on well known internet websites.

Our obligation is to ensure you are informed and confident in the way we are providing well designed systems and safeguards to protect your data from abuse and misuse.

We must also tell you if anything goes wrong with that system, how we deal with it and how you can see what data we hold on you. You also have the right to request to see all data we hold about you and on you request, that it should be permanently deleted from our system.

We adhere as closely as possible to the guidelines set out by the ICO and the following sections will detail in clear and plain language everything to do with the data we hold about you

The ICO also require that you give us consent to collect this data in an explicit way by agreeing to this privacy policy detailed in the sections to follow. If you do not agree, you should not continue to view this website and you should delete all cookies in your browsers and cease to visit our URLs again.

If you do agree, you should check the agreement box and continue using this website. You should also check regularly to see if the date of this privacy policy has changed, in order to reassess your agreement with us if the policy changes.

Please read all the sections following in this document and remember to check the consent boxes to remind you that you have allowed us to collect the data being sent to us. In all cases, the consent boxes will link back to this document so that you can review the data we collect, how we use and store it and what your rights are to delete or see what we hold about you.
