Privacy Policy

The Energy Society of India (ESOI) is committed to protecting the privacy of all visitors, members, subscribers, and stakeholders who interact with its website and digital platforms. This Privacy Policy explains what information ESOI collects, why it is collected, how it is used, how it is protected, and the choices available to users.

      1. Information We Collect

ESOI collects personal information only when it is voluntarily provided. This may include name, email address, phone number, organisation, designation, and other basic professional details submitted through forms for membership applications, newsletter subscriptions, event registrations, training enrolments, and enquiry or contact requests.

In addition, ESOI may collect limited technical information such as IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, time spent on the website, and referral sources, to support website security, performance, and analytics.

      1. Purpose of Collection and Use

ESOI uses personal information strictly for legitimate and stated purposes, including:

      • processing memberships and maintaining member records;
      • managing registrations for events, workshops, conferences, and training programmes;
      • delivering newsletters, announcements, publications, and updates;
      • responding to enquiries and stakeholder requests;
      • improving website functionality and user experience;
      • ensuring platform security and preventing misuse.

ESOI does not use personal information for unrelated purposes, and does not engage in selling or trading personal data.

      1. Data Sharing and Disclosure

ESOI does not share personal data with third parties except where it is necessary to deliver services requested by the user (for example, email distribution platforms, event registration systems, or secure payment service providers), and only to the extent required to perform that function. Where such service providers are used, ESOI seeks reasonable assurances of confidentiality and secure handling.

Personal information may be disclosed if required by law, regulation, court order, or lawful government request, or where necessary to protect ESOI’s rights, security, or operations.

      1. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

ESOI may use cookies or similar technologies to improve site performance, enable core functionality, and understand usage trends. Cookies may support features such as session management, preferences, and analytics. Users may disable cookies through browser settings; however, doing so may affect certain website features or performance.

      1. Data Security

ESOI maintains reasonable administrative, technical, and organisational safeguards to protect personal information against loss, unauthorised access, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. Access to personal data is limited to authorised personnel and service providers with a legitimate operational need. While ESOI applies appropriate protections, no digital system can guarantee absolute security.

      1. Data Retention

ESOI retains personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, comply with applicable legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce organisational policies. When information is no longer required, ESOI follows reasonable processes for deletion or anonymisation.

      1. User Rights and Choices

Users may request access to their personal information, corrections to inaccurate details, or withdrawal of consent for communications. Users may opt out of newsletters and non-essential updates at any time through the unsubscribe link or by contacting ESOI directly. ESOI will respond to valid requests within a reasonable period, subject to legal and operational requirements.
