📜 Updated Privacy Policy: Cinematic Lightworks

Your Vision is Sacred. Your Data is Secure.

Last Updated: March 26, 2026

At Cinematic Lightworks, we respect the privacy of our artists, investors, and associates as much as we respect the art of cinema. This policy outlines how we protect the data of those building the future of storytelling with us.

1. Data We Collect (The Digital Footprint) 📂

We collect only what is essential to fuel your cinematic journey:

• For Clients: Name, Contact details, Professional interests, and Project briefs.

• For Cinematic Associates: In alignment with our 11% Dividend Policy, we collect government-issued IDs (Aadhar/PAN/Voter ID) and bank details solely for KYC Verification and secure profit settlements.

2. Our Data Usage Philosophy 🧠

Your information is never "content" for us. We use it to:

• Manage bookings and coordinate high-end production logistics.

• Verify identity through Cashfree Secure ID to ensure 100% legal payouts.

• Provide real-time updates on project milestones and cinematic opportunities.

3. Asset-Light Disclosure (Partnership Boundaries) 🌉

As a Digital-First Production House, we coordinate with elite technical crews and partner studios in Kolkata and Mumbai.

• We only share project-specific details (e.g., your portfolio requirements) with these partners.

• Strict Non-Disclosure: Our partners are contractually bound to maintain absolute confidentiality. We do NOT sell, trade, or rent your personal data to any third-party marketing agencies.

4. Payment Security: The Cashless Shield 🛡️

In compliance with our 100% Cashless Mandate:

• All financial transactions are encrypted and processed via Cashfree Payments.

• Cinematic Lightworks does not store, see, or have access to your credit card numbers, CVV, or banking passwords. Your financial privacy is guarded by industry-leading encryption standards.

5. Data Retention & Your Rights ⚖️

We retain your professional data as long as you are part of our ecosystem or as required by Indian legal and tax regulations (e.g., MSME audit requirements).

• You have the right to request access to your data or its deletion.

• For any privacy-related queries, reach out to our legal desk at: info@cinematiclightworks.com.
