Summaries of each agreement, so you know what you are signing before legal reads the long form. The full executable documents are issued at signup and available from the console.

Terms of Service
  • The service is provided by BlueWhale Stack Consulting and Technologies Pvt Ltd under Indian law, with exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Mumbai.
  • You pay for what you use at the published INR rates plus GST. Compute bills per second after the first minute; the monthly rate is a cap.
  • You are responsible for what you run and for your account credentials. We may suspend workloads that break the Acceptable Use Policy after notice, or immediately where the law requires.
  • Either side can terminate with 30 days’ notice. On closure your data is exportable for 30 days, then cryptographically erased.
Privacy Policy
  • We collect what onboarding and billing require: KYC records (retained five years after closure, as the CERT-In Directions require of Indian cloud providers), billing details and usage telemetry.
  • Customer content is processed only to operate the service — never for advertising, profiling or model training.
  • All personal data for Indian customers is stored and processed in Indian regions.
  • Data-subject requests go to privacy@bluewhalestack.cloud and are answered within the statutory window of the DPDP Act 2023.

Data Processing Agreement
  • For personal data you place on the platform, we act as Data Processor and you as Data Fiduciary under the DPDP Act 2023.
  • Sub-processors are listed publicly and changes are notified 30 days ahead; all sub-processing for Indian regions stays in India.
