At MD Technologies, privacy is treated as a fundamental architectural requirement. This Master Privacy Policy outlines the comprehensive protocols governing how your personal data, developer credentials, and commercial identities are managed across all MD Colab platforms.

Browser Monaco editor sandboxes, multiplayer room state, live preview sessions, and repository tokens.
Public creator listings, skill endorsements, OrangeTick verification data, and direct message communications.
Corporate registration records, GSTIN certificates, authorized signatory records, and Razorpay Route accounts.
Order routing, buyer shipping details, wholesale SKU pricing, and Razorpay Route settlement payouts.
GST business identifiers, line item tax calculations, and WhatsApp transaction snapshots.
High-tier compute allocations, priority bandwidth, cloud storage quotas, and encrypted session archives.
3. Information We Collect Directly from Users
- Account Credentials: First name, last name, registered email address, securely salted/hashed passwords, date of birth, and avatar images.
