Privacy Policy

Last updated: 01 July 2025

Junior DPS Darbhanga is committed to protecting the privacy of every child, parent and staff member who interacts with this website. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the website you agree to the practices described here.

1

Information We Collect

When you fill in an enquiry form, apply for admission or subscribe to school updates, we collect the details you voluntarily provide — parent name, child's name, contact number, email, class of interest and any message you send us. Server logs may automatically record IP address, browser type and pages viewed so we can keep the site secure and improve it.

2

How We Use Information

Information is used strictly for school-related purposes: responding to admission enquiries, scheduling campus visits, sharing academic updates and complying with our regulatory obligations as a CBSE-affiliated institution. We do not sell, rent or trade personal data with any third party for marketing.

3

Children's Privacy

The website is not designed for direct use by children under 13. Where a child's details are shared (for example, in an admission enquiry), we assume the parent or lawful guardian has provided them. Any account or portal features intended for students are governed by additional consent obtained at the time of admission.

4

Cookies & Analytics

We use minimal cookies to keep you signed in to any staff dashboard and to remember your preferences. We may use privacy-respecting analytics to measure how the site is used in aggregate. You can disable cookies in your browser without losing access to the public pages of the site.

5

Data Sharing

Enquiry information is accessible only to authorised admissions staff of Junior DPS Darbhanga. We may share information with government bodies (such as CBSE) or law enforcement when legally required, and with trusted service providers (email, hosting) who are contractually bound to protect your data.

6

Data Retention

Enquiry records are retained for up to 24 months after the last contact. Admission and academic records are retained for the duration required by CBSE and applicable Indian law. Website server logs are kept for up to 90 days.

7

Your Rights

You may write to us at any time to review, correct or delete the personal information we hold about you or your child. We will action reasonable requests within 30 days, subject to any legal obligation to preserve records.

8

Security

We use industry-standard measures including HTTPS encryption, restricted admin access and secure password storage. No online service can be completely secure, but we work hard to safeguard your information and notify you promptly if any breach affects your data.

9

Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated from time to time. The 'Last updated' date at the top will always show the most recent revision. Continued use of the website after changes means you accept the updated policy.
