All material on the Site, including text, images, videos, portfolios, and other content, is owned by Iyal Studios Private Limited and/or its licensors, clients, or third-party copyright holders (e.g., studios or producers for whom services were provided). Specific copyright attributions for third-party content may be noted on the Site or available on request.
You may view the content solely for personal, non-commercial use on the internet. Any other use — including reproduction, distribution, modification, downloading (except temporary browser caching), storage, public display, or creation of derivative works — is strictly prohibited without prior written permission from Iyal Studios or the relevant rights holders.

Deep linking to any page other than the home page (www.iyalstudios.com) is prohibited without prior written consent.
This Site is operated from India by Iyal Studios Private Limited. These TOU are governed by the laws of India. Any disputes arising out of or in connection with your use of the Site shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts in Tuticorin District, Tamil Nadu (or as applicable under Indian law), and you agree to submit to such jurisdiction.
The Site and all content are provided "as is" and "as available" without any warranties of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or accuracy. Your use of the Site is at your own risk.

"Personal Data" means any data about an individual who is identifiable (directly or indirectly), as defined under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 ("DPDP Act").
Iyal Studios collects minimal Personal Data. For most visitors, no Personal Data is collected beyond what is necessary for site functionality (e.g., essential cookies). We collect Personal Data only when you voluntarily provide it, such as through contact forms, career/recruitment submissions, or other explicit requests.
We process Personal Data only for specified, legitimate purposes and with your consent (where required under DPDP Act) or as permitted by law. We may use or disclose it if:
If you submit details (e.g., resume, experience, contact info) via our careers section, we collect this to evaluate your suitability for employment or freelance opportunities at Iyal Studios. This data is shared internally with relevant team members, HR, and management for recruitment purposes only.
We may share such information with affiliated entities if we believe you may be suitable for roles there (we will usually seek your consent first). We do not sell or trade Personal Data.
We retain Personal Data only as long as necessary for the purpose collected or as required by law. We implement reasonable security measures to protect data, but no internet transmission or storage is 100% secure — you transmit at your own risk.
Under the DPDP Act, you have rights including access, correction, erasure (subject to exceptions), and grievance redressal. To exercise these or for questions, contact:
