Terms & Conditions

By creating an account on Mangalyam ("the Service") or using the Mangalyam mobile application, you agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

These terms apply to every person who creates, manages or views a profile on the Service, whether the profile is for themselves or for a family member.

You must be at least 18 years of age to use the Service. By registering, you confirm that you are 18 or older and legally competent to enter into a binding contract under Indian law.

The Service is intended for matrimonial purposes only — that is, to help Nagarathar community members connect for the purpose of marriage. Any other use is strictly prohibited.

Registration requires a valid mobile phone number. We verify the number via a one-time password (OTP). You are responsible for keeping your phone number active and under your control.

One account is permitted per phone number. Creating multiple accounts, or transferring an account to another person, is not allowed and may result in permanent removal of all associated profiles.

You are solely responsible for the accuracy of the information you publish, including personal details, family details, kovil, veedu, patta peyar, horoscope and photographs. You confirm that you have the right to share any photographs and information you upload.

You must not publish content that is false, misleading, obscene, defamatory, or that impersonates another person. We reserve the right to reject, edit or remove any profile or content that violates these terms, at our sole discretion.

All profiles are manually reviewed by our admin team before they are visible to other users. Approval is not a guarantee of accuracy; it is a good-faith review.

You agree to use the Service respectfully. You will not harass, stalk, threaten, abuse or send unsolicited commercial messages to any other user.

You will not attempt to collect phone numbers, photographs or any other personal data of other users for any purpose other than your own matrimonial search.

Daily caps apply: you may view up to 25 profiles and send up to 5 interests per calendar day. These limits exist to keep the platform meaningful for everyone.

Phone numbers are revealed to another user only after both sides have accepted an interest. Until that mutual acceptance, no phone numbers, addresses or other contact details are shared through the Service.

Once a match is made, families are expected to connect directly over phone or in person. We do not mediate, monitor or record those conversations. Any communication after a match is between you and the other family, at your own risk.

You may block or report any profile at any time. Blocks are silent — the blocked user receives no notification and cannot find your profile in search.

Reports are reviewed by our admin team. We may warn, suspend or permanently remove accounts that violate these terms, without prior notice.

The Mangalyam name, logo, design and software are owned by the operator of the Service. You may not copy, modify, distribute or reverse-engineer any part of the Service.

By uploading content, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to display that content within the Service for the purpose of operating the matrimonial platform.

You may delete your account at any time from within the app. On deletion, your profile becomes invisible to other users immediately and is purged from active systems within 30 days, subject to any legal retention requirements.

We may suspend or terminate your account without notice if we reasonably believe you have violated these terms, or if we must do so to comply with law or protect other users.

Mangalyam is a platform that helps community members discover each other. We do not guarantee that you will find a match, and we do not vouch for the character, background or intentions of any user.

The Service is provided on an "as-is" and "as-available" basis. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components. Use of the Service is at your own risk.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Mangalyam and its operators will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages arising out of your use of the Service, including damages for loss of profits, data, goodwill or reputation.

Our total liability to you for any claim arising from your use of the Service is limited to the amount you have paid to us in the past twelve months, or ₹1,000, whichever is higher.

We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be notified to you through the app or by email. Continued use of the Service after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

These terms are governed by the laws of India. Any dispute arising from or in connection with the Service shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts at Chennai, Tamil Nadu.

Before initiating any legal action, you agree to first contact us at admin@mangalyam.org.in so we can try to resolve the matter amicably.

If you have any questions about these terms, please email us at admin@mangalyam.org.in. For formal grievances, you may reach our Grievance Officer at admin@mangalyam.org.in.
