Last updated: Sep 26, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Saurabh Web Studio ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses and protects information when you visit https://saurabhwebstudio.com (the "Website"). By using the Website you agree to this policy. If you have any questions, contact us at saurabh@zxnova.com.

1. Who we are

Saurabh Web Studio is an educational website and YouTube channel run by Saurabh Pandey from India. It publishes tutorials and guides on Shopify, WordPress, Elementor, AI web development and freelancing.

2. Information we collect

Information you give us

When you use our contact form, we collect your name, email address, the topic you choose and your message. We use this only to reply to you. It is stored securely on our web server and sent to our email inbox.

Information collected automatically

Server logs: like most websites, our hosting provider records technical data such as IP address, browser type, pages requested and the date and time of the request, for security and troubleshooting.
Spam protection: the contact form stores a one-way hashed identifier derived from your IP address to limit repeated submissions. It cannot be used to identify you directly.
Cookies and similar technologies: described in section 4.

3. How we use information

To reply to your messages and enquiries.
To operate, secure and improve the Website.
To display advertising that helps fund free tutorials (see section 5).
To comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell your personal information.

4. Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. The Website itself uses only minimal browser storage (for example, remembering that the intro animation has already played during your visit). Third-party services on the Website may set their own cookies, including:

Google AdSense — advertising cookies (see section 5).
YouTube — when you choose to play an embedded video. We use YouTube's privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com), which limits cookies until you play a video.
Affiliate partners — if you click an affiliate link, the partner may set a cookie to record that the visit came from us (see our Disclaimer).

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the Website work.

5. Advertising and Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google is a third-party vendor that uses cookies to serve ads on our Website.

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this Website or other websites.
Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this Website and/or other sites on the Internet.
You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info or, in Europe, www.youronlinechoices.eu.
Other third-party vendors or ad networks may also use cookies to serve ads on our Website, where permitted by Google's policies.

To learn more about how Google uses information from sites that use its services, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

Visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland are shown a consent message, provided through a Google-certified consent management platform, before personalised ads or advertising cookies are used. You can change your choice at any time using the privacy settings link shown by that message.

6. Third-party services

The Website uses trusted third-party services to function: our web hosting provider, Google Fonts and a public content delivery network (jsDelivr) for design and script files, YouTube for video, and Google Search Console to monitor how the Website appears in search. These providers process technical data (such as IP address) to deliver their services, under their own privacy policies.

7. Links to other websites

Our articles link to other websites, including tools we recommend. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those websites, so please review their policies.

8. Data retention

Contact form messages are kept only as long as needed to respond and for reasonable record-keeping, after which they are deleted. Server logs are retained by our host for a limited period for security purposes.

9. Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in Europe and the UK, India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, or California privacy laws), you may have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your personal information, to object to processing, and to withdraw consent. To make a request, email saurabh@zxnova.com. We will respond within a reasonable time.

10. Children's privacy

The Website is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

11. Security

We use HTTPS encryption and reasonable technical measures to protect information. No method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, but we work to protect your data.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top shows when it was last changed.
