This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your personal data when you interact with our website, admission enquiry forms, counselling services, and related communications. We handle your personal data in accordance with India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (the ‘DPDP Act’) and other applicable Indian laws.

When you submit an admission enquiry, request a call back, register for a counselling session, or make a payment, we may collect the following personal data:

Your full name.
Your mobile number.
Your email address.
Your course or programme of interest.
Your city, state, and educational background (where you choose to share it).
Payment information such as UPI transaction references and payment status (processed through our third-party payment gateway; we do not store your full card or bank credentials).

2. Why We Collect Your Data

We process your personal data for clearly defined and lawful purposes, including:

Processing and evaluating your admission enquiry or application.
Providing counselling, course guidance, and career information.
Communicating with you about programmes, admissions, fees, schedules, and institute updates.
Processing registration and fee payments.
Responding to your questions and support requests.
Complying with legal, regulatory, and record-keeping obligations.

3. Lawful Basis and Consent

We process your personal data on the basis of the consent you provide when you voluntarily submit an enquiry or interact with our services, and for the legitimate purposes described above. By submitting your details, you consent to being contacted by our admissions and counselling team through phone, SMS, email, WhatsApp, or other messaging channels. You may withdraw your consent at any time, as described in the ‘Your Rights’ section below.

4. How Your Data Is Stored and Secured

We implement reasonable technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include access controls, encrypted data transmission where appropriate, and restricting access to personal data to authorised personnel who need it to perform their duties. While we take data security seriously, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including admissions, counselling, and any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Admission enquiry data is typically retained for the duration of the active admission cycle and for a reasonable period thereafter. When your data is no longer required, we securely delete or anonymise it.

We do not sell your personal data. We may share limited personal data with trusted third parties strictly for the purposes described in this policy, including:

Payment processors and gateways, to securely process registration and fee payments.
Communication and messaging service providers, to deliver calls, SMS, email, and WhatsApp messages.
Service providers who help us operate our website and manage admission enquiries, under appropriate confidentiality obligations.
Government authorities or regulators, where disclosure is required by applicable law.

7. Your Rights

Subject to applicable law, including the DPDP Act, you have the right to:

Access the personal data we hold about you.
Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
Request erasure of your personal data, where legally permissible.
Withdraw your consent to further processing or communication.
Nominate another individual to exercise your rights in specified cases.
