Privacy notice
What is collected, why, for how long, and how to have it deleted.
[01] What is collected
For applications: your name, email address, WhatsApp number, town or district, age, current status, programming experience, an optional link to your work, and your written answers.
For interest registration: your name, one contact detail, and the school you are interested in.
For messages: your name, email address, topic and message.
[02] What is never collected
Caste, religion, family income, photograph, identity document number, bank details and payment card details are not collected at application.
Age is collected only to determine whether guardian consent is required.
[03] Why, and for how long
Application data is used to assess the application, to communicate with the applicant, and to keep a record of the outcome.
It is retained for the duration of the selection round and for the statutory period required of educational records, and then deleted or anonymised.
Interest registrations are used to tell people when a programme opens, and are deleted on request at any time.
[04] Your choices
You can ask for a copy of your data, ask for it to be corrected, or ask for it to be deleted, at any time, by writing to the admissions mailbox.
Consent is optional and unticked. Without it, we cannot process the application.
[05] No sale, no advertising trackers
Personal data is not sold, rented or shared with advertisers. The public website sets no tracking cookies and loads no third-party analytics scripts.
