3. Information Related to Mental Health

Some interactions with Vimanthan may involve information about your emotions, experiences, or mental health. For example, you may search the Mental Health Explorer for terms such as anxiety, burnout, overthinking, or emotional numbness. The Explorer is designed as an informational resource and is not intended to create a clinical diagnosis.

If you communicate with a therapist or participate in a therapy session, that information is subject to professional confidentiality and legal obligations applicable to the practitioner.

Important: Submitting text into general educational tools on the website does not automatically establish a confidential therapist-client relationship.

• IP address and device information
• Browser type and operating system
• Pages viewed and referring URLs

We use this data to maintain server security, resolve technical bugs, and improve website performance.

We do not sell personal data to third parties.

6. Legal Basis and Consent (DPDP Act, 2023)
