Acceptance
By using this website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
The website
This is the personal website of Dinesh Saravanan — a social activist documenting 12+ years of community work across Tamil Nadu. It is a personal/non-commercial project. No formal NGO or trust currently operates this site; all community work is undertaken in his personal capacity.
Donations
- Donations are voluntary contributions made directly to Dinesh Saravanan's personal accounts. They are not tax-deductible at this time, as no 80G exemption is currently in place.
- Every donation is documented with photo and video proof of where the funds went. You may opt to be listed publicly on the donor wall, or remain anonymous.
- Payment processing is handled by Razorpay (India) and PayPal (international). By donating, you also accept their respective terms.
- Refunds are reviewed case-by-case. Email dineshbsaravanan@gmail.com within 7 days of payment with the order ID.

All photos, words, and stories on this site are owned by Dinesh Saravanan unless attributed otherwise (Deccan Herald, Thanthi TV, and other media features are credited where used). You may share these stories on social media with attribution. Commercial reuse requires prior written permission.
User-submitted content
When you submit a contact form or include a message with a donation, you grant us the right to read, store, and (in the case of public donor messages where you have not opted for anonymity) display it on this site. We will never publish private contact form messages.
No medical / legal / financial advice
This site shares stories from the field. It is not professional advice on medicine, law, or finance. For specific situations, consult an appropriate professional.

The site is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect or consequential loss arising from your use of the site.
