Privacy

Four Skies (fourskiesastro.com) is run by Marain Pte. Ltd., a company incorporated in Singapore (“we”, “us”). This notice says what happens to information when you use it. The short version: we compute your chart and keep nothing about your birth, unless you create an account and choose to save a chart or keep a question you ask the sage. We never sell what you keep with us or share it with anyone but the providers listed below, who do the work.

Your birth details

• The date, time and place you enter are used to compute your chart for that one request. We do not store them in a database, and we do not link them to you, unless you save the chart to an account or keep a question asked from its page (below).
• They are part of the chart page’s web address, so they stay in your browser’s history, and in any link you choose to send someone.
• Like any website, our hosting provider (Cloudflare) records requests — including that web address — in operational logs, kept for a few days to run and debug the service, then deleted.
• Your Four Skies card is drawn in your own browser. It shows your signs, never your birth date or place, and it leaves your device only if you save or share it yourself.

If you ask the sage a question

• Your question and your chart (its signs, degrees, houses, nakshatras, pillars and lots, and the periods you are in now, such as your dasha) are sent to OpenRouter, which passes them to the company hosting the AI model that writes the answer (a Qwen model, usually hosted by Alibaba Cloud). Your birth date, time and place are not sent. Those providers may keep requests for a short time under their own terms.
• You can ask from any page that shows a reading. What that page shows goes with the question in the same form: today’s transits, the periods you are in, the year’s dates, the days of the month you are choosing from, the day’s panchang.
• If you ask from the matching page, the other person’s placements and the count go with yours. Their name and their birth date, time and place are not sent, whether their chart is saved or typed in. Only ask about someone who is happy for you to.
• We keep each question you ask and the sage’s answer, with the date and the page you asked from, under “Your questions” on your account, so you can come back to them and see how his answer changes when you ask again. A question asked from a chart’s page keeps that page’s address, which holds the chart’s birth date, time and place. All of it is encrypted before it is written, with a key held outside the database.
• Untick “Keep this question” before you ask and that question and its answer are not kept. “Delete” on any question removes it from our database at once and for good, and deleting your account deletes them all.
• We do not sell your questions or answers, use them for advertising or share them with anyone. The only other party that sees them is the AI provider above, which writes each answer when you ask.
• You need an account to ask. To keep to the daily allowance (one question on a free account, fifteen with Plus), we keep a count per account for that day. It is kept against a one-way code made from your account and the date; it cannot be turned back into the account, it changes every day, and it is deleted the next day.
• Don’t put anything in a question you wouldn’t tell a stranger — names, health details or anything else sensitive.

What we count

We keep daily totals — how many charts were completed, how many times each room was opened, how many cards were saved or shared, and how many questions the sage answered. A total is a date, a name and a number. It contains no birth details, no IP address and nothing that identifies you. We use it to decide whether Four Skies is worth keeping (see the kill rule at the foot of every page).

We also use Google Analytics to see how many people visit, which pages they open and what they do there. It is sent only the page’s path, such as “/chart”, with the rest of the address removed, so your birth date, time and place are never part of it. The one exception is a link we tagged with a campaign name (such as “utm_campaign=launch”), whose tag is kept so we can tell which post or newsletter brought you. Besides pages, it is told when a chart is shown, a room is opened, the sage answers a question (never the question or the answer), a card is saved or shared, a reading is switched, two charts are matched, a chart is saved, someone signs up or signs in, and something is bought (which product, the amount and our order number). We do not tell it who is signed in, and we do not use it for advertising.

Unless you press “Allow” on the cookie notice, Google Analytics stores nothing on your device, and Google cannot tell one of your visits from the next. If you press “Allow”, it sets cookies (below) that let it recognise your browser on a later visit, so we can count returning readers and see which steps people take in order. Either way Google receives what any website you load receives: your IP address, which it uses to place you in a country or city, and your browser and device type. Google keeps this data for up to 14 months.

If you create an account

You don’t need an account to read a chart. One exists so you can save charts and ask the sage. If you create one:

• We keep your name, your email address, a hashed password and your sign-in sessions (which record the IP address and browser you signed in from).
• We send you account emails (to confirm your address or reset your password) through Resend.
• Your account stays in Four Skies’ own database. We don’t copy it into a customer list or a marketing tool.

If you save a chart

• Only when you press “Save this chart” while signed in, we store that chart’s birth date, birth time (if you gave one), birthplace, the name you give it and, only if you choose to give it, the person’s sex, linked to your account. The birth details and sex are encrypted before they are written, with a key held outside the database. Apart from a question you keep (above), this is the only way birth details are ever stored. By saving, you ask us to keep them so you can open the chart again.
• We store the details, not the chart: it is recomputed each time you open it. We use saved details for nothing else — no profiling, no marketing, no sharing.
• If you save a chart for someone else, such as a parent or a friend, make sure they are happy for you to. Their birth details are theirs.
• “Delete” on your charts page removes a saved chart from our database at once and for good. “Delete my account” removes the account, its sessions, every saved chart and every kept question, at once and for good. Database backups kept by our provider may hold a copy for a short time before they roll over.

If you buy something

• You pay on a page run by our payment provider, Airwallex. Your card details go to Airwallex and never reach us; we could not see them if we tried.
• To set up the payment we send Airwallex your name and email address, and they tell us whether it succeeded. Airwallex keeps its own records of the payment, the invoice and, for a subscription, the saved payment method, under its own privacy notice.
• We keep a record of each purchase against your account: what it was, the amount, its status, and Airwallex’s reference numbers for it. That is how the site knows what to open for you. Deleting your account deletes these records with it and stops any subscription from renewing; Airwallex keeps its own payment records for as long as the law requires.
• The paid pages (kundli matching and today’s sky) are worked out from charts you have saved, each time you open them. The results are not stored.

Cookies

We set a session cookie only if you sign in. We use no advertising cookies. If you press “Save this chart” before signing in, your browser remembers that chart’s details in its own storage until you return signed in, so we can finish the save; that note never leaves your device by itself.

The first time you visit, a notice asks whether Google Analytics may set a cookie. If you press “No thanks”, or don’t answer, it sets none. If you press “Allow”, it sets two, “_ga” and one beginning “_ga_”, each a random number that identifies your browser to Google Analytics for up to two years. Your answer is kept in your browser’s own storage, not in a cookie. You can change it at any time with “Cookie choice” at the foot of every page; changing to “No thanks” removes the two cookies.

Who processes data for us

• Cloudflare — hosting and request logs.
• Turso — our database (daily totals, the sage’s per-visitor daily counts, the birthplace list, and — only if you create them — accounts, saved charts, kept questions and purchase records).
• OpenRouter, and the model host it routes to — the sage’s answers, only if you ask a question.
• Resend — account emails, only if you create an account.
• Airwallex — payments, only if you buy something.
• Google (Google Analytics) — counts of visits, pages and actions, as described above.

These providers may process data outside your country. We don’t sell personal data, and we don’t show ads. Birthplace names come from GeoNames (CC BY 4.0); no data about you goes to GeoNames.

Your rights

Depending on where you live — including under Singapore’s PDPA, the EU and UK GDPR, and India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act — you can ask to see, correct or delete personal data we hold about you, or object to how we use it. Since we store no birth details unless you save a chart, for most visitors there is nothing to hand over; if you have an account, you can see and delete what we hold from your charts page. Write to our data protection officer at privacy.officer@marain.space.

Children

Four Skies is not meant for anyone under 18.

If we change what we collect, we’ll update this page and its date before the change takes effect.
