Starseed is a web application that helps you discover the Nakshatra (Lunar Mansion) associated with your name using the Avakahada Chakra system from Vedic astrology. This privacy notice explains how we handle your personal data in compliance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR).
What Data We Process
- Name: When you enter your name into the Starseed webapp, we process it to identify its core syllable and map it to a corresponding Nakshatra.
- No Other Data: We do not collect or process any additional personal information, such as email addresses, IP addresses, or other identifiers.
How We Process Your Data
- Client-Side Processing: Your name is processed entirely in your browser using JavaScript. No data is sent to or stored on our servers.
- No Storage: We do not store your name or any other personal data after processing. The data is used only to display your Nakshatra result during your session.
- No Third-Party Sharing: Your name is not shared with any third parties, including analytics services or external tools.
Lawful Basis for Processing
We process your name based on your implied consent, provided by voluntarily entering your name to receive a Nakshatra result. You may withdraw this consent by not using the webapp.
Your Rights
Under UK GDPR, you have rights over your personal data, including the right to access, rectify, or erase it. Since Starseed does not store your data, there is no stored data to access or erase. If you have questions about your rights, please contact us.
Hosting and Security
- Starseed is hosted on GitHub Pages, a static hosting service. No server-side logging of your name occurs.
- We use Tailwind CSS and vanilla JavaScript, ensuring no external dependencies collect your data.
