Terms & Conditions
The rules for using kumbh.one, written in plain language rather than dense legal boilerplate.
1. Acceptance of these terms
By accessing or using kumbh.one, you agree to these Terms & Conditions. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.
2. What this site is
kumbh.one is an independent, informational guide to the Kumbh Mela — its origin legend, its four sacred sites, its schedule, its rituals, and practical guidance for pilgrims. It is not operated by, affiliated with, or endorsed by any government body, Mela administration, Akhara, or religious institution.
3. Content ownership
Unless otherwise noted, the text, design, and original graphics on this site are owned by kumbh.one and may not be reproduced, republished, or redistributed without permission. Factual information about the Kumbh Mela itself — dates, history, geography — is not owned by anyone and you're free to reference it; we simply ask that you don't copy our specific wording or layout wholesale.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to: use the site for any unlawful purpose; attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the site or its underlying code; scrape or bulk-copy the site's content for republication; or interfere with the site's normal operation (for example, through automated bots that place excessive load on the server).
5. Accuracy of information
We take reasonable care to keep dates, facts, and figures accurate and clearly mark provisional information as such. However, Kumbh Mela bathing dates are set by astrological calculation and confirmed by the Akhara Parishad closer to each event — they can and do shift. See our Disclaimer for the full detail on this point before making travel decisions.
6. External links
This site links to third-party websites, including government and news sources, for further reading. We don't control those sites and aren't responsible for their content, accuracy, or availability.
7. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, kumbh.one and its operators are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or reliance on, this site — including travel decisions made based on dates or guidance published here. The site is provided "as is," without warranties of any kind.
8. Changes to the site or these terms
We may update the site's content or these Terms at any time without prior notice. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
9. Governing law
These terms are intended to be governed by the laws of India, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, subject to review as noted below.
10. Contact
Questions about these terms can be sent through the Contact Us page.
