Who we are
Our website address is: https://shunyaxis.com.
At Shunya Axis, your privacy matters. 🌱 While we are a consciousness movement and not a data-driven platform, our website is powered by WordPress and follows its standard practices to ensure transparency.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service Privacy Policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Cookies 🍪
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.
Embedded content from other websites 🔒
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Who we share your data with
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data 🌏
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
AI Ethics Statement 🤖
At Shunya Axis, we use artificial intelligence (AI) as a supportive tool to enhance research, writing, design, and educational outreach. All AI-assisted content is curated, reviewed, and aligned with our guiding principles of dharma, transparency, and contextual integrity.
We believe that technology should serve wholeness—not just efficiency. Therefore:
- Human Oversight: Every AI-generated output is reviewed by our team to ensure accuracy, cultural sensitivity, and ethical alignment.
- Transparency: We openly disclose when AI has contributed to content creation, maintaining trust and clarity for our readers.
- Privacy Respect: AI tools are used in accordance with our data protection practices and do not compromise user confidentiality.
- Cultural Integrity: We avoid misrepresentation of Indian Knowledge Systems and ensure that all references are ethically sourced and contextually grounded.
- Educational Intent: AI is used to democratize access to advanced knowledge—not to replace human insight, but to amplify it.
Shunya Axis remains committed to evolving its AI practices in harmony with emerging global standards, Indian policy frameworks, and the deeper values of conscious innovation.
