How IndiaRealTime collects, uses and protects your information, including cookies, advertising, affiliate links, and your rights under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.
Last updated: 18 July 2026
IndiaRealTime ("we", "us", "our", "the Site") publishes live weather, air quality, mandi (commodity) prices, precious metal rates, Panchang and currency-conversion information for locations across India. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you use https://indiarealtime.com/, how we use it, and the rights available to you under Indian law.
By using the Site, you agree to the collection and use of information as described here. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
If you subscribe to updates or contact us by email, we collect the email address and any other details you choose to include in that message. We use this only to respond to you or, if you opted in, to send the updates you asked for.
Like most websites, our server and analytics tools automatically log certain technical information when you visit, including:
The "📍 My city" feature on the homepage asks your browser for permission to access your device's precise location, so we can show data for the city nearest you. This only happens if you actively click that button and grant permission in your browser's own prompt — we never access your location otherwise, and the location is used only to find the nearest matching city in that moment; we do not store a history of your locations.
We use cookies and browser storage for essential site functioning and, in the future, may use them for analytics and advertising. See our Cookie Policy for full details.
We do not sell your personal data to anyone.
IndiaRealTime is an independently run informational service. To help cover the cost of running it, the Site may, now or in the future, display advertising and/or contain affiliate links. This section applies whenever those are active.
The Site may use Google AdSense or other Google advertising services to display ads. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this site 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 a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalised advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info. For more on how Google uses information from sites that use its services, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
Some links on the Site may be affiliate links. If you click one and go on to make a purchase or sign up with that third party, we may earn a commission — at no extra cost to you. We only link to services relevant to the content on the page they appear on, and an affiliate relationship never influences the factual data (rates, prices, weather figures) we publish.
We may use analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use the Site in aggregate. These services may set their own cookies; see our Cookie Policy.
We do not sell personal data. We may share information with:
Underlying weather, air quality, commodity price, and Panchang data displayed on the Site is sourced from public government open-data portals and licensed third-party APIs — this is published content, not information about you.
We follow reasonable security practices consistent with the Information Technology Act, 2000 and the Information Technology (Reasonable Security Practices and Procedures and Sensitive Personal Data or Information) Rules, 2011, including encrypted (HTTPS) connections and access controls on our infrastructure. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
If you are located in India, the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act) gives you the following rights over your personal data that we hold:
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in Section 9. We will acknowledge requests promptly and aim to resolve them within a reasonable time, consistent with applicable law.
The Site is not directed at children and we do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18 years of age. If you believe a child has provided us personal data, please contact us and we will delete it.
The Site is hosted and operated with India as its primary audience, but is publicly accessible worldwide. If you access the Site from outside India, your information may be processed on servers located in India or other countries where our hosting or service providers operate. If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA) or UK, advertising partners such as Google may require your consent to use cookies for personalised ads, which will be requested separately where applicable.
