Privacy Policy
Last revised: October 2026
1. Purpose of the Archive
Wanali is a non-profit educational and historical open archive dedicated to cataloging Sri Lanka wild tuskers, temple custodians, and fallen legends. We do not collect personal browsing profiles or track visitors across external web services.
2. Anonymous Usage & Local Preferences
We store only your theme preference (dark or light mode) inside your browser local storage. This preference stays on your local device and is never transmitted to our servers or third-party analytical vendors.
3. Wildlife Security & Precise Coordinates Policy
To safeguard living wild tuskers against poaching and unauthorized tracking, all geospatial markers displayed for living wild elephants represent broad regional sanctuary coordinates or historic general ranges rather than real-time telemetry.
4. Voluntary Sighting Contributions
If you submit a field report via our contact page, your submitted contact information is utilized strictly to verify photographic submissions and field documentation. We never sell, rent, or share volunteer details with commercial advertisers.
