Last updated: 31 May 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Toto's Botanica(“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, and protects your personal data when you visit totosbotanica.com(the “Site”) or submit an order enquiry. We are committed to handling your information responsibly and in line with India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (“DPDP Act”) and the Information Technology Act, 2000 and its rules.

1. Information we collect
We only collect what you choose to give us through the enquiry form:
- Contact details you provide: your name, phone number, and email address.
- Order details: the items you select and any custom request you describe (colours, occasion, sizes, deadlines, and similar notes you type in).
- Items you add to your order are stored only in your own browser (using local storage) until you choose to submit them. They are not sent to us beforehand.
We do not collect or process any payment information, card numbers, bank details, or government identifiers through this Site. Please never send such information through the form or by email.
2. How and why we use your information
We process your data on the basis of your consent, given when you submit the form, for these purposes:
- to respond to your enquiry and answer your questions;
- to prepare and confirm a quote, timeline, and the details of a ready-made or custom order;
- to arrange fulfilment and delivery if you decide to proceed.
We do not use your details for advertising, and we do not sell or rent your personal data to anyone.
3. Who we share it with
To run the enquiry process we use Google services (Google Sheets, Google Apps Script, and Gmail) as our data processors: your submission is recorded in a private spreadsheet and triggers confirmation emails to you and to us. Google processes this data on our behalf and may store it on servers outside India. We share your information only with service providers like this, or where required by law.

The Site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect the personal data of children. In line with the DPDP Act, processing a child’s data requires verifiable consent from a parent or lawful guardian; if you believe a child has shared data with us, please contact us so we can delete it.
