Sūtraha

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of Sūtraha (https://sutraha.in), operated by LETSTHRIVE.IO, a sole proprietorship based in Mysore, Karnataka, India ("we", "us", or "our").

By accessing or using Sūtraha, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the platform.

1. What Sūtraha Is

Sūtraha is a community directory and marketplace that connects yoga practitioners with yoga shalas, events, services, accommodations, and local businesses in the Gokulam neighbourhood of Mysore, India.

We are a directory platform, not a booking or payment service. Sūtraha does not facilitate, process, or take responsibility for any payments, reservations, or transactions between users and service providers. All such arrangements are made directly between the parties involved.

2. Who Can Use Sūtraha

Sūtraha is open to users of all ages. All content on the platform is reviewed and moderated before going live, making it suitable for general audiences.

If you are under 18, you should have the permission of a parent or guardian before creating an account or submitting any content. By using the platform, you confirm that you have obtained any necessary parental consent.

3. User Accounts

You may sign in using your Google account. By doing so, you authorise us to access the basic profile information provided by Google (name, email, profile picture).
You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and for all activity under your account.
You must provide accurate information and keep it up to date.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

4. Service Providers and Listings

Onboarding

Yoga shalas, teachers, event organisers, accommodation providers, and local businesses ("service providers") may apply to list their offerings on Sūtraha either through our onboarding process or by self-registering on the platform.

Content Review

Contain false, misleading, or inaccurate information

Are inappropriate, harmful, or not relevant to the yoga community in Mysore

Accuracy of Listings

Service providers are responsible for ensuring their listings are accurate and up to date. Sūtraha does not independently verify all details in approved listings and is not responsible for inaccuracies in provider-submitted content.

No Payments Through the Platform

Sūtraha does not process payments. Any pricing information shown in listings is for reference only. All payments, bookings, and arrangements must be made directly with the service provider.
