Privacy Policy

Bharathi College of Nursing ("we", "us", "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit bharathinursing.com or contact our admissions office, how we use it, and the choices you have.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information that you voluntarily provide to us, including:

• Inquiry details — your name, phone number, email address, course of interest, and any message you submit through our admissions form or popup.
• Communication history — emails, calls, or messages you exchange with our admissions team.
• Basic technical data — pages visited, device type, and approximate location, collected by GitHub Pages and any analytics we may add in future.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 18 without parental consent.

2. How We Use Your Information

• To respond to your admissions or general inquiries.
• To send you information about our programs, application status, and campus events.
• To improve our website and the services we offer prospective students.
• To comply with legal obligations under Indian law.

3. How Your Information Is Shared

We do not sell your personal information. We share inquiry data only with:

• Form delivery service — Web3Forms processes form submissions and delivers them to our admissions inbox.
• Service providers — third parties who help us operate the website (e.g. GitHub Pages for hosting, Google Maps for the campus map embed).
• Government authorities — when required by law, court order, or in response to a valid legal request.

4. Data Retention

We retain inquiry data only as long as necessary to respond to your request and to maintain our admissions records, after which it is deleted or anonymised.

5. Your Rights

Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you.
• Request correction of inaccurate data.
• Request deletion of your data when it is no longer needed.
• Withdraw consent for further communications.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at admission@bharathinursing.com.

6. Cookies & Local Storage

Our website uses minimal browser storage — for example, a flag that prevents the admissions popup from re-appearing for 30 days after you submit or dismiss it. We do not use third-party advertising cookies.

7. Third-Party Links

Our website links to social media accounts (Instagram, YouTube) and embeds Google Maps. Those services have their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to review.

8. Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your information from unauthorised access. However, no method of internet transmission is fully secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect any changes. Continued use of the site after a revision constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
