Lokeezi Magazine is an independent digital publication covering urban culture, creative portraits and lifestyle stories across Indian metros. This policy explains what personal data we collect when you visit lokeezi.com, how we use it, and the choices you have over your information. We keep this page transparent and plain, without hidden clauses or misleading claims.
When you browse lokeezi.com, our hosting servers automatically record technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device model, operating system, and the pages you visit. If you subscribe to our newsletter or send us a message through the contact form, we receive the details you provide: your name, email address, phone number if you choose to share it, and the content of your message. We do not collect sensitive categories of personal data, and we do not ask for financial information anywhere on this site.
We use the technical data to keep the magazine reliable, diagnose server issues, and understand which stories and city guides attract the most readers. The contact details you submit are used only to respond to your enquiry, send the newsletter you requested, or follow up on a story pitch or correction. We do not sell your data, rent it to advertisers, or use it to build profiles for third-party marketing. Our editorial decisions are never influenced by the personal information we hold.
Lokeezi uses a small number of cookies to remember basic preferences, such as whether you have dismissed a newsletter prompt, and to measure aggregate traffic through privacy-respecting analytics. These tools help us understand which photo essays and street style features resonate with readers, but they do not identify you personally. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings without losing access to the magazine. We do not use cross-site tracking, fingerprinting, or advertising cookies.
Our newsletter sign-up form collects your email address and, optionally, your first name so we can address you correctly in the weekly issue. The contact form collects your name, email, and the message you write. We keep these messages for as long as needed to resolve your enquiry, and we delete them once the conversation is closed. If you unsubscribe from the newsletter, we remove your email from the active list immediately, though a backup copy may remain on our hosting provider for a short retention period.
Your data is stored on servers operated by our hosting provider, which may be located inside or outside India. We also rely on a small number of third-party processors for email delivery, form handling, and analytics. Each processor is bound by a data processing agreement and receives only the minimum information needed to perform its task. We do not transfer data to parties unrelated to the operation of this magazine, and we never share personal information with advertisers or sponsors.
You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, ask for corrections, demand deletion, or withdraw your consent to newsletter processing at any time. You may also object to analytics processing or request that your data be exported in a portable format. These rights apply regardless of where you live, and we will respond to every verified request within thirty days. To exercise any of these rights, write to us using the contact details below and we will confirm the action we have taken.
Lokeezi does not publish fake testimonials, invented brand partnerships, or fabricated urgency. We do not claim official affiliation with any government body, university, or media house, and we do not guarantee specific outcomes from reading our content. Any interview, review, or recommendation reflects the genuine editorial opinion of our writers. If you believe a story contains an error or an undisclosed relationship, please contact us and we will correct it promptly.
For any question about this policy, to request access to your data, or to ask for deletion, contact the editorial team at info@lokeezi.com or write to us at 21, Jamshed Chowk, Chennai - 351590. You can also reach us by phone at 048 17035742 during regular working hours. We will acknowledge your request within two business days and resolve it within thirty days.
