Privacy Policy
Last updated:
SLS International Gurukul, operated by SRI LAKSHMI SIDDESHWARA EDUCATIONAL TRUST, respects your privacy. This policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect personal information through our website, admissions enquiries, and Facebook and Instagram lead forms.
Our campus is located at 2nd Cross, K Channasandra, Horamavu Post, Bangalore – 560043
Information we collect
When you enquire about admissions, we may collect:
- Your name and contact details, such as phone number and email address.
- Your locality or PIN code.
- The class and academic year for which admission is sought.
- Your preferred contact time, campus visit preferences, and information you voluntarily include in your enquiry.
- Records of our admissions communications and follow-up.
Please provide a parent’s or guardian’s contact details. Do not submit identity documents, financial information, medical records, or other sensitive information through an initial enquiry form.
Our website may also receive technical information such as IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited, depending on the services used on the website.
How we use your information
We use enquiry information to:
- Respond to your questions about the school and admissions.
- Explain available classes, the admissions process, fees, and school facilities.
- Arrange campus visits and admissions discussions.
- Follow up on your enquiry through the contact channels you have agreed to.
- Maintain enquiry records and assess the effectiveness of our admissions campaigns.
- Protect our systems and meet applicable legal obligations.
Submitting an enquiry does not constitute an application, reserve a seat, or guarantee admission.
We will seek separate permission where required before using your details for unrelated promotional communications.
Facebook and Instagram enquiries
When you submit an enquiry through a Facebook or Instagram lead form, the information you choose to submit is made available to us so that our admissions team can respond.
Our handling of that information is covered by this policy. Meta’s handling of information on its platforms is governed by its own Privacy Policy.
Who can access your information
We limit access to authorised school personnel and service providers who need the information to support the purposes described in this policy.
These providers may include website hosting, enquiry management, communications, and admissions campaign support providers. They are permitted to process information on our behalf only for the agreed services and subject to appropriate confidentiality and security requirements.
We do not sell or rent admissions enquiry information.
We may disclose information when legally required or where reasonably necessary to protect lawful rights, security, or safety.
Cookies and website tools
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website and improve its content. It uses cookies to distinguish visits and collects information such as pages visited, browser and device details, approximate location, and visit statistics. When the analytics service loads, your browser sends information, including your IP address and the page URL, to Google.
Google Analytics currently loads automatically when you visit our website. You can manage or block cookies through your browser settings and use Google’s Analytics opt-out browser add-on on supported browsers. Blocking some cookies may affect website functionality.
For more information and available controls:
We use sign-in cookies to maintain authenticated account sessions. We also use local browser storage to remember whether the admissions enquiry popup has been shown, and session storage to help prevent duplicate enquiry submissions when a request is retried. You can clear this stored information through your browser settings.
How long we keep information
We retain admissions enquiry information till the admission time is finished, unless a longer period is required by law or needed to address an ongoing request or dispute.
When information is no longer needed, we delete it or anonymise it. If an enquiry progresses to admission, relevant information may become part of the student’s admission record and be subject to a separate retention policy and privacy notice.
Children’s information
Our admissions enquiry forms are intended for parents and guardians aged 18 or above.
Please provide only the information needed for the initial enquiry. If additional information about a child is required during the formal admissions process, we will explain its purpose and obtain parental or guardian consent where required.
If you believe a child has submitted personal information directly through an enquiry form, please contact us so that we can review and address it.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, or disclosure. Access is restricted to people who need it for their work.
No online service or storage system can guarantee absolute security.
Your choices and privacy requests
You may contact us to:
- Ask about the personal information we hold about you.
- Request correction or deletion of your information.
- Withdraw consent for further admissions follow-up.
- Raise a concern or complaint about how we handle your information.
We will assess and respond to requests in accordance with applicable law. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.
To stop admissions follow-up, contact us using the details below or tell the admissions representative contacting you. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing already lawfully carried out. We may retain information where required or permitted by law.
Updates to this policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes in our practices or applicable requirements. The latest version will be published on this page with the revised date. Where required, we will provide additional notice or obtain fresh consent for material changes.
