Privacy Policy

Last updated: 22 August 2026

This policy explains what personal information Inspire Junior College collects, why we collect it, who can see it, and what you can ask us to do with it. It describes what our systems actually do — not what a template says they might.

1. Who we are

Inspire Junior College ("we", "us", "the College") operates this website and the internal administration system behind it.

For the purposes of the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (India), the College is the Data Fiduciary for the information described below.

2. What we collect

a. When you submit an admission enquiry

The enquiry form on our website asks for:

This is used solely to contact you about admission. We do not use it for advertising and we do not sell or rent it to anybody.

b. When a student is enrolled

College staff record the information needed to run the institution: student name, admission number, date of birth, address, course and section, campus, parent and guardian contact numbers, previous school, fee structure, payments received and balances outstanding, and hostel or transport status where applicable.

c. Staff records

For teachers and staff we hold name, subject, contact details, campus and salary records, for employment and payroll purposes.

d. Security records

Our system keeps an audit log of actions taken inside the administration portals — who made a change, to which record, and when. This exists so that money and student records remain accountable. Passwords and PINs are never written to this log.

We do not run advertising, analytics or tracking of any kind. There is no Google Analytics, no Meta Pixel, and no advertising network anywhere on this site. We do not build profiles of visitors and we do not track you across other websites.

3. Children's information

Most of our students are under 18. Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, a child's personal data may only be processed with the verifiable consent of a parent or lawful guardian.

4. Why we use it, and on what basis

5. Who can see it

Access inside the College is restricted by role:

Outside the College, information reaches only these parties, and only as described:

We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information to anyone, for any purpose.

6. Cookies and browser storage

This website does not use cookies. Not for analytics, not for advertising, not for anything. Nothing on this site writes a cookie to your browser.

When College staff sign in to an administration portal, the portal stores a small number of values in their browser's local storage. These are strictly necessary for the portal to work:

NamePurpose
auth_tokenKeeps the staff member signed in for the session
refresh_tokenRenews the session without asking for the password again
jc_sync_journalRecords whether data on screen is up to date
portal_theme_modeRemembers light or dark appearance
session_end_reasonExplains why a session ended, on the sign-in screen

None of these track you, and none are used for advertising. A visitor to the public website who never signs in has none of them. Clearing your browser data removes them and signs you out.

7. How long we keep it

When a record is deleted in our system it first goes to a recycle bin, from which it can be restored by mistake-correction, and it is permanently erased when purged.

8. How we protect it

No system is perfectly secure. If we become aware of a personal data breach affecting you, we will notify you and the Data Protection Board of India as required by law.

9. Your rights

Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 you may ask us to:

To make any of these requests, contact us using the details in section 10. We may need to verify your identity, and your relationship to the student, before acting.

10. Grievance contact

Questions, requests and complaints about personal information should be addressed to the College's grievance contact:

We aim to respond within 30 days.

11. Changes to this policy

If we change how we handle personal information, we will update this page and change the date at the top. Material changes affecting students or parents will also be communicated directly.
