01Who we are
Fauji Funk (“we”, “us”) designs and sells apparel, accessories, gifting and mementos for the Indian Armed Forces and their families, from New Delhi. This policy explains what personal data we collect through this website, why, and the choices you have. We process personal data in line with India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and the Information Technology Act, 2000.
02What we collect
- Account details: your name, email address and, if you add it, phone number and profile picture from your sign-in provider.
- Order details: delivery addresses (including APO/FPO), the products you buy, personalisation text such as unit, name, rank or motto, and order notes.
- Payment status: whether a payment succeeded and its reference ID. We never see or store your full card number, CVV or UPI PIN.
- Messages: what you send us through the contact form, email or WhatsApp.
- Basic technical data: browser type and pages visited, used only to keep the site working.
We don’t want sensitive service informationWe never need your posting details or anything classified. For the serving-member discount we check a service ID or ECHS card once and record only that you’re verified, never the card number. Please don’t include operational information in addresses, notes or personalisation text. Service numbers are engraved only when you choose to add one to a product.
03How we use it
- To make, personalise, deliver and support your order, including sending proofs, dispatch updates and tracking.
- To run your account: order history, saved addresses and wishlist.
- To answer your questions and handle returns and refunds.
- To send newsletters (“dispatches”), but only if you sign up. Every email has an unsubscribe link.
- To meet our legal obligations, such as GST invoicing and record keeping.
We don’t sell your personal data, and we don’t use it for third-party advertising.
04Who we share it with
We share only what each service needs to do its job:
| Service | Purpose |
| Razorpay | Processing payments (UPI, cards, netbanking, wallets). Razorpay is PCI-DSS compliant and handles your payment details directly. |
| Zitadel | Secure sign-in to your account (OpenID Connect). |
| Couriers & India Post | Delivering your order: name, address and phone number only. |
| Cloudflare | Hosting this website and protecting it from abuse. |
We may also disclose information where the law requires it, for example to a court or a government authority with a valid order.
05Cookies & local storage
The site uses your browser’s local storage to remember your bag, wishlist, recently viewed products and sign-in session on this device. These are essential to how the store works and stay on your device. We don’t use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. Clearing your browser’s site data removes them.
06How long we keep it
We keep order and invoice records for eight years, as Indian tax law requires. Account data is kept while your account is active and deleted within 30 days of a deletion request, apart from records we must retain. Proof artwork for unit orders is kept so we can remake or repeat an order, unless you ask us to delete it.
Data is transmitted over HTTPS, and access is limited to the people who need it to fulfil your order.
