Privacy Policy
Last updated: 6 November 2026
Diya Wish ("we", "us") lets you create animated Diwali greetings and share them with a short link. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have. We keep it short because we collect very little.
What we store when you create a wish
- The wish itself: the recipient name, your name, your message, the card design, the language, the song choice and the time it was created. We need these to show the card when someone opens your link.
- A random link ID such as
/w/Ab3xK9q. Anyone who has the link can open the wish, so please do not put private information in a wish. - Open counts: how many times a link was opened, so you can see that your wish was seen. We do not record who opened it.
Wishes are kept for about 13 months and then deleted automatically. You do not need an account, and we never ask for your phone number, email or contacts.
Security and abuse prevention
To stop spam and scams we keep a temporary, one-way hashed version of your network address for rate limiting. It cannot be turned back into your IP address and expires within a day. Wishes that contain links, long numbers, payment IDs or common scam words are rejected. Wishes reported by several people are hidden.
Data stored on your device
Your browser's local storage keeps your draft and the list of wishes you sent, so you can see them on your next visit. This never leaves your device unless you send a wish. You can clear it any time from your browser settings.
Analytics
We use Vercel Analytics and Google Analytics to understand which pages and cards people use, so we can improve the site. Google Analytics sets cookies and collects data such as pages visited, device type and approximate location. It does not receive the names or messages in your wishes. You can opt out with the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.
Cookies and advertising
We may show ads served by Google AdSense to keep the service free. Google and its partners use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and other sites on the Internet.
- You can opt out of personalised advertising at Google Ads Settings.
- You can opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies at aboutads.info.
- Read how Google uses data from partner sites at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Visitors in the EEA, UK and Switzerland will see a consent message before personalised ads are shown.
Songs from YouTube
If a wish uses a film song, the song plays through YouTube's embedded player. YouTube may set its own cookies when the player loads. See Google's Privacy Policy.
Hosting and processors
The site runs on Vercel and wishes are stored in a Prisma Postgres database. These providers process data on our behalf under their own security and privacy terms.
Children
The service is meant for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Your rights
You can ask us to delete a wish or ask what we hold about a link you created. Write to atgraphic12@gmail.com with the link. Under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and similar laws you may have rights to access, correct and erase your data.
Changes
If we change this policy we will update the date at the top of this page.
