Privacy Policy

Last updated 11 August 2026

This policy explains how Gnan Srishti School of Excellence ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses and protects personal information gathered through this website (gsshsr.com). It does not cover records held as part of a student's enrolment, which are governed by the school's own admissions and records policy.

1. 1. Who we are

   Gnan Srishti School of Excellence is located at 19th Main, 17th Cross Road, 1st Sector, HSR Layout, Bengaluru 560102. [TODO: registered legal entity name, e.g. the trust or society that operates the school, if different from the name above.] This policy covers only what we collect through this website — the enquiry form, the careers page, and the forms linked from them.

2. 2. Information you give us

   We collect only what you type into our forms:

   • Enquiry form (Contact page): your name, email address, phone number and message.
   • Careers page application: your name, email address, phone number, the position you are applying for, a portfolio or LinkedIn link if you provide one, and the résumé file you upload.

   We do not ask for more than this through the website.

3. 3. Information collected automatically

   Our hosting provider keeps standard technical logs (such as IP address and browser type) for security and troubleshooting, as most websites do.

   We do not run analytics, advertising or tracking cookies on this website, and we do not build a profile of visitors.

4. 4. Cookies and embedded content

   We do not set any cookies of our own. The Contact page embeds a Google Maps panel showing our location; Google may set cookies when that panel loads, governed by Google’s own privacy policy, not ours.

5. 5. How we use your information

   We use the details you submit only to respond to your enquiry, share information about admissions, or assess a job application.

   We do not sell or rent your personal data to anyone, and we do not use enquiry or application details for unrelated marketing.

6. 6. Children's information

   The forms on this website are intended to be completed by a parent or guardian on a child’s behalf, not by a child directly. Where a form does involve a child’s personal data (for example, a child’s name in an admissions enquiry), we treat it as provided with the verifiable consent of that child’s parent or guardian, in line with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.

   We do not use children’s information for tracking or targeted advertising.

7. 7. Who we share it with

   We do not share your information with anyone outside the school, except:

   • Service providers who host this website or carry our email, bound to keep it confidential and use it only to provide that service.
   • Where required by law, regulation, or a valid order of a court or authority.

8. 8. How long we keep it

   We keep enquiry submissions for [TODO: retention period, e.g. 12 months] and job applications and résumés for [TODO: retention period, e.g. 12 months], unless we ask your consent to keep an application on file for longer, or the law requires a different period.

9. 9. How we protect it

   Access to information submitted through this website is limited to school staff who need it to do their work, our contact form sends over an encrypted connection, and résumé uploads are not publicly listed anywhere on the site.

   No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information.

10. 10. Your rights

    Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, you have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, ask us to correct or update it, ask us to erase it, withdraw any consent you gave, nominate another person to exercise these rights on your behalf in the event of death or incapacity, and raise a grievance with us or with the Data Protection Board of India.

    To exercise any of these rights, write to us at info@gsshsr.com or at the postal address below. We will respond within a reasonable time and as required by law.

11. 11. Links to other websites

    Our site links to WhatsApp, our social media profiles, and Google Maps. Once you leave our website, the privacy practices of that other site apply, not ours.

12. 12. Changes to this policy

    We may update this policy from time to time. If we make a material change, we will update the "last updated" date at the top of this page. Continuing to use the website after a change means you accept the revised policy.

13. 13. Contact us / Grievance Officer

    Questions or requests about this policy, or about your personal data, can be sent to our Grievance Officer:

    • Name and designation: [TODO: Grievance Officer name and designation]
