- Personal & Contact Information: Name, email address, phone number, date of birth, gender, and residential address.

4. Data Retention Policy
We retain your user data only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy and to comply with legal obligations. Our specific retention timelines are as follows:

- Legal & Healthcare Compliance Holds: Due to strict medical regulations, certain health records, telemedicine consultation logs, and maternal/child tracking data (e.g., Matrujyoti data) may be legally required to be retained for a specific statutory period (typically 3 to 7 years depending on local laws) even after an account deletion request. Once this legal retention period expires, this data will be permanently purged.
