Privacy Policy

Sariska, Rajasthan, India · Effective: June 2026

​At Chokhiwadi Forest Retreat, the care and respect we show to the wild nature around us extends directly to how we handle your personal information. When you book a stay, browse our website, or chat with us, you’re trusting us with your details. We don’t take that lightly.

​This policy explains—in plain, honest language—what data we collect, why we need it, and how we keep it safe. By using chokhiwadi.com, booking a stay, or getting in touch, you agree to the friendly practices we’ve outlined below.

​01 — Who We Are

​We are Chokhiwadi Forest Retreat, a boutique eco-luxury resort nestled in the Aravalli foothills, right on the edge of the Sariska Tiger Reserve. Legally speaking, we are the “data controller” of your information, but practically speaking, we are just the team responsible for keeping your stay seamless and your data secure.

​02 — The Information We Collect (And Why We Need It)

​We only collect information that helps us give you an incredible experience. Here is exactly what we ask for:

​When You Book a Stay: Your name, email, phone number, travel dates, and who is joining you. We also note your preferences—like dietary needs, pet arrangements, accessibility requirements, or if you’re celebrating something special.

​Note on Payments: Your payment details are processed directly and securely by our trusted third-party booking engine. We never see or store your credit card numbers.

​When You Reach Out: Any details you share via our contact forms, career applications, or WhatsApp chats (like planning a corporate retreat or a special event).

​When You Join Our Community: Your name and email if you sign up for our newsletter or the Chokhiwadi Insiders loyalty programme.

​When You Arrive at the Retreat: A government-issued ID at check-in, which is a standard legal requirement for hotels in India. We also keep a record of any feedback or reviews you kindly share with us.

​Behind the Scenes (Website Tech): Like most modern websites, we automatically gather a bit of basic tech data when you visit us—such as your IP address, device type, what pages you looked at, and cookies. This just helps us understand how to make our website easier to use.

​03 — How We Use Your Data

​We use your information strictly to make your time with us unforgettable and to run our retreat smoothly. Specifically, we use it to:

​Lock in your reservations and send confirmations.

​Tailor your stay to your taste (making sure the kitchen knows your dietary needs and your room is ready just the way you like it).

​Coordinate your adventures, like Sariska safari bookings, nature drives, local transport, or arranging medical help if you feel unwell.

​Send you occasional updates, seasonal offers, or Insiders tips—but only if you explicitly asked to receive them.

​Keep our guests safe via resort security and comply with Indian hospitality laws.

​Our Golden Rule: We will never sell, rent, or trade your personal details with anyone else for their marketing. Period.

​04 — Who We Share It With

​We only share your data with trusted partners who help us deliver your experience, and we hold them to the same high standards we keep:

​Our Booking & Payment Partners: Secure systems that handle your online transactions safely.

​Safari & Activity Operators: Licensed local guides who need your name to book your slots into the Sariska Tiger Reserve.

​Our Communication Tools: Trusted platforms that help us send out our beautiful newsletters and updates.

​Legal Authorities: Only when explicitly required by Indian law (like standard government guest registers).

​05 — How Long We Keep It

​We don’t hold onto your data forever—just long enough to do our jobs and satisfy the law.

​Booking and Tax Records: Kept for at least 3 years to satisfy Indian tax laws.

​Guest IDs: Kept securely as required by local hospitality regulations.

​Inquiries & Questions: Erased or archived after 12 months once your query is solved.

​Newsletters: We keep your email on our list until you hit “unsubscribe.”

​06 — Your Rights (You’re in Control)

​Your data belongs to you. No matter where you are from, you can ask us to:

​Give you a copy of the data we have on you.

​Fix anything that is incorrect.

​Delete your data completely (as long as we don’t legally need to hold onto it for tax or law enforcement).

​Take you off our marketing lists instantly.

​To make any of these requests, just shoot an email to Chokhiwadi.info@gmail.com. We’ll get back to you and sort it out within 30 days.

​07 — Cookies & Tracking

​We use cookies to make our website work beautifully. Some are strictly essential for the booking system to function. Others help us see which pages are popular so we can improve our site, or help us show you relevant content on social media later. You can easily turn off non-essential cookies in your web browser settings if you prefer.

​08 — Photos, Social Media & Drones

​We love sharing the magic of Chokhiwadi on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube!

​Your Face, Your Choice: We will only ever post photos or video testimonials featuring you if you give us your explicit, thumbs-up consent. If you see a photo of yourself on our channels that you want down, just tell us. We will remove it immediately.

​Drones: You are welcome to fly drones within our resort boundaries for personal memories. However, please remember that forest authorities strictly ban drone use outside our property in the reserve. Please also respect the privacy of other guests and don’t film them without a quick ask!

09 — Security

​We treat your data like our own. We use secure HTTPS encryption on our website, secure access controls for our internal files, and strict PCI-DSS standards for transactions. While no internet transmission is 100% foolproof, we do everything in our power to keep the digital locks tight.

​10 — A Note on Children

​We love welcoming families to the forest! However, our website and booking platforms are meant for adults. We never knowingly collect data directly from children under 18; any family information must be provided by a parent or guardian.

​11 — Other Websites

​Our website contains links to external partners (like Google Maps or our booking engine). Once you leave our site, our privacy rules no longer apply, so please peek at their policies if you have any questions.

​12 — Updates to This Policy

​As our retreat grows or laws change, we might update this policy. If we make a major change, we’ll put a notice on our website or send you a quick email. You can always see when it was last updated by checking the date at the top.

​13 — Let’s Chat

​If you have any questions, worries, or just want to clarify something, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help!

What keeps Chokhiwadi among the best resorts in Sariska is that it adheres to Rajasthan’s Eco-Tourism policy. Over 500 acres are reserved for organic food forests and farm-to-table gardens. We did not just build on the land. We worked around it.
Whatever brings you here, the forest delivers. In Chokhiwadi, a regular stay would include things such as guided nature walks, trekking, birdwatching, stargazing, bonfire nights and wildlife safaris.
