Privacy Policy
Last updated:
This Privacy Policy explains how Kortavia (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and protects personal data when you visit kortavia.com (the “Site”).
Kortavia is run by Raghavendra and based in Hyderabad, India.
If you have questions about this policy or about your personal data, email info@kortavia.com. That address is also our grievance contact under India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (the “DPDP Act”).
We are an independent HighLevel affiliate
Kortavia is an independent publisher and an affiliate of HighLevel (also known as GoHighLevel). We are not employed by, owned by, or part of HighLevel or its related companies. If you buy a HighLevel product through a link on this Site, we may earn a commission. That does not change the price you pay. Affiliate tracking tools and cookies are described below. See also our Affiliate Disclosure.
The data we collect
We collect only what we need to run the Site, answer your questions, and improve our content. Depending on how you use the Site, this may include:
Information you give us
- Name
- Email address
- WhatsApp number or other phone number, if you choose to share one
- Company or business name
- The service tier or package you are interested in
- Your role, if you tell us (for example developer, broker, or channel partner)
- A project location and a monthly budget range, if you share them
- Project details and any other information you type into a form or email
- Any message you send to info@kortavia.com
Information collected automatically
- Technical and usage data, such as pages visited and how the Site performs in your browser, as collected by our analytics tools
- Cookie or similar identifiers used for analytics and for affiliate tracking
We do not ask for payment card details on this Site. If you hire us for agency work, invoicing or payment details may be collected separately, off this Site, and will be used only for that purpose.
We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. This Site is intended for adults and businesses.
How we collect it
Checklist and email signup (Google Forms). Some pages invite you to request a checklist or a similar resource. That form is hosted by Google Forms. When you submit it, Google processes the information you enter (typically your email address, and any other fields shown on the form) and we receive your response.
Agency inquiry form (Web3Forms). The form on our Agency page is submitted through Web3Forms. It may collect your name, email address or WhatsApp number, company name, the service tier you are interested in, and project details. Web3Forms delivers that submission to info@kortavia.com so we can reply.
Real estate lead-generation form (Web3Forms). The form on our Real estate lead generation page uses the same Web3Forms setup. It may collect your name, company, role, phone or WhatsApp number, email address, project location, monthly budget range, and message. Web3Forms delivers that submission to info@kortavia.com so we can reply.
Email. If you write to info@kortavia.com, we receive whatever you include in that message.
Vercel Analytics and Speed Insights. The Site is hosted on Vercel. We use Vercel Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights to understand traffic and performance. These tools are designed to be privacy-friendly. They may collect anonymous or aggregated usage and performance data. We do not use them to build a personal advertising profile.
Affiliate networks, links, and cookies. Some articles contain affiliate links, including links to GoHighLevel / HighLevel. HighLevel affiliate links on this Site typically use FirstPromoter and may include a parameter such as fp_ref. If you click an affiliate link, the affiliate network or the vendor may set a cookie or similar identifier on your device so they can credit us if you later buy a product. We may also use affiliate links for other tools we write about, such as ActiveCampaign, where those programmes are active. We do not control the cookies or privacy practices of those third-party sites. Their own policies apply once you leave kortavia.com.
Hosting logs. Vercel, our host, may process standard technical data (such as IP addresses in server logs) as part of hosting and securing the Site.
How we use your data
We use personal data to:
- Send you a resource you asked for, such as a checklist
- Reply to agency inquiries and to real estate lead-generation enquiries, and discuss a possible project
- Run and improve the Site, including performance and content
- Understand, at a high level, which pages people visit
- Comply with the law, and keep records we reasonably need
- Support affiliate referral credit when you choose to click an affiliate link (this tracking is usually handled by the affiliate network or vendor)
We do not sell your personal data. We do not use your form submissions to send you unrelated marketing unless you have asked us to stay in touch, or we are following up on an inquiry you sent.
Third parties who may process your data
We use the following third parties to operate the Site. They process data only as needed to provide their service to us or, in the case of affiliate networks, to track referrals if you click a link:
| Third party | What they do |
|---|---|
| Google Forms (Google) | Hosts the checklist or email form and stores responses |
| Web3Forms | Delivers agency inquiry and real estate lead-generation form submissions to us |
| Vercel | Hosts the Site and provides Analytics and Speed Insights |
| FirstPromoter and HighLevel / GoHighLevel | Track affiliate referrals when you click a HighLevel link |
| Other affiliate networks or vendors (for example ActiveCampaign, where used) | Track affiliate referrals when you click their links |
These companies may process data on servers outside India. When that happens, we still take reasonable care to use established providers and to share only what is needed for the purpose above.
If you click through to another website, including a tool we review, that site’s privacy policy applies.
Cookies and similar technologies
The Site may use cookies or similar technologies for:
- Basic site operation and security
- Privacy-friendly analytics and performance measurement (Vercel)
- Affiliate tracking after you click a partner link (for example FirstPromoter / HighLevel)
You can control cookies in your browser settings. Blocking cookies may stop affiliate tracking from working, and may affect some site features.
How long we keep data
- Form and email inquiries: for as long as we need to respond, follow up, and keep a reasonable business record. We then delete or archive them when they are no longer needed.
- Analytics data: according to the retention settings of Vercel Analytics and Speed Insights.
- Affiliate cookies: according to the affiliate network or vendor. For HighLevel, referral credit is typically limited to a set window after a click.
Your rights under India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023
In plain terms, if we hold your personal data, you can:
- Ask what we hold and how we use it. You can request a summary of the personal data we have about you, and how we use it.
- Ask us to correct it. If something is wrong or incomplete, you can ask us to update it.
- Ask us to erase it. You can ask us to delete your personal data, unless we need to keep it for a legal reason or to finish something you asked us to do.
- Withdraw consent. Where we rely on your consent (for example, you submitted a form), you can withdraw it. That does not undo any use we already made in good faith before you withdrew it.
- Raise a grievance. You can complain to us, and we will try to resolve it.
- Nominate someone. Under the DPDP Act, you may nominate another person to exercise certain rights on your behalf if you cannot do so yourself.
To use any of these rights, email info@kortavia.com and include enough detail for us to find your request (for example, the email address you used on a form). We may need to verify that the request comes from you.
If you are not satisfied with our response, you may be able to take the matter to the Data Protection Board of India, as provided under the DPDP Act and its rules.
Grievance contact
