What we hold, and what we don't.

01Who we are

His Own is a men's health assessment and protocol service operated by [LEGAL ENTITY NAME], registered in India at [REGISTERED ADDRESS]. In the language of the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, we are the Data Fiduciary for the information described here. You are the Data Principal.

If anything below is unclear, that is our failure rather than yours. Write to us and we will explain it in plainer terms.

02What we collect

03What we deliberately do not collect

• Your name.
• Your address, date of birth, or any government identifier — no PAN, no Aadhaar.
• Payment card details. If you buy a panel, payment is handled by our payment processor and the card never reaches us.
• Your partner's information.

04Sensitive answers

Some questions concern androgen or steroid use, sexually transmitted infections, and erectile function. Under the DPDP Act these are personal data concerning health, and we treat them with additional care:

• Used only to decide which test to recommend and how to read your result.
• Excluded from any version of your report generated for sharing with a partner, clinic or insurer.
• Never used for marketing or advertising targeting.
• Choosing "prefer not to say" is recorded as a reason to run a test, not to skip one.

05The legal basis

We process your data on the basis of the consent you give when you tick the box at the end of the assessment. That consent is specific to the purposes in section 02, and you may withdraw it at any time.

06Who else sees it

We do not sell your data. We do not share it with advertisers, data brokers, insurers or employers.

07Where it is kept, and for how long

• Stored on Google Workspace infrastructure. Some may be processed on servers outside India.
• If you never book a panel: your assessment record is kept for 24 months, then deleted.
• If you book a panel: results and protocol history are kept for five years, unless you ask us to delete them sooner.
• Anonymous, aggregated statistics may be retained indefinitely. These cannot be traced back to you.

08Your rights

Under the DPDP Act you have the right to access, correction, erasure, withdrawal of consent, nomination, and grievance redressal.

09How to delete your record

• Reply DELETE to any WhatsApp message from us.
• Email [PRIVACY EMAIL] from the address you gave us, or write from your registered number.

We remove the record within seven working days and confirm when it is done. We do not ask you why.

10Security

• Access restricted to named team members who need it.
• Accounts holding this data use two-factor authentication.
• Data encrypted in transit, and at rest by our storage provider.
• If a breach occurs that is likely to affect you, we notify you and the Data Protection Board as required.

11Children

This service is for adults. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. The assessment ends early for anyone who indicates they are under 21.

12Cookies

We use only what is needed to make the site work and to count page visits in aggregate. No advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or third-party trackers on the assessment.

13Changes

If we change how we use your data in any material way, we tell you directly — not by quietly editing this page.

14Contact and grievances

We aim to respond to any privacy request within seven working days, and to resolve grievances within thirty days.

His Own is an assessment and protocol service. It addresses sperm parameters and correctable contributing factors. It is not a diagnosis, it is not a substitute for medical care, and it is not a guarantee of conception. Prescription medicines are provided only through a licensed clinician following consultation.
