1. Who we are
NamasteRupee (namasterupee.com) is a loan guidance and referral platform for personal loans and gold loans in India. We are not a bank or an NBFC and we do not lend money ourselves. We help you understand your options and, with your consent, connect you with banks and NBFCs that may be able to offer you a loan.
For any question about this policy or your information, write to contact@namasterupee.com or call +91 98765 43210 (Monday to Saturday, 9:30 AM to 7:00 PM IST).
2. Information we collect
We collect only the information you choose to give us:
- Enquiry and application forms: your name, mobile number, email address and city; the type of loan and the amount you need; your employment type and monthly income for a personal loan; the weight and purity of your gold for a gold loan; and anything you write in the additional information box.
- When you contact us: the details you share by phone, email or WhatsApp while we help you with your enquiry.
- Language preference: if you switch the site language, that choice is saved in your own browser so the site opens in the same language next time.
The forms on this website do not ask for your Aadhaar number, PAN, bank account password, card details or OTP. Please do not send these to us through the website forms.
3. How we use your information
