Effective from 24 October 2026. This policy explains how Dream Vision Classes (DV40), Panchavati, Nashik (“we”, “us”) collects and uses personal data, in line with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and the rules made under it, and the Information Technology Act, 2000. It covers this website, our enquiry and registration forms, our website chat, and admission and classroom records.

1. What we collect, and where from

Enquiry forms and website chat: name, mobile number, email (if given), the programme you are interested in, your area or locality, and any message you write.
Scholarship test registration (e.g. Udaan Test): student’s name, mobile number, standard, board, target exam, school, PIN code and address, and your acceptance of the test’s terms. After the test: attendance, marks and result.
Admission and classes: student and parent or guardian details, class, school or college, test performance, attendance and fee records (amount, mode, reference).
Payments: online payments are handled by our payment provider (Razorpay). We receive the payment status and reference, never your card, UPI PIN or bank login details.
Feedback forms: parent and student feedback forms are anonymous. We do not ask for or store names, roll numbers or phone numbers; only the standard, batch and board chosen and the answers.
Technical data: to protect the site from misuse we store a one-way scrambled (hashed) form of your internet address, not the address itself, and a session cookie that keeps forms working. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies, and we do not run third-party analytics.

2. Why we use it

Only for the purpose for which you gave it:

to call or message you back about the enquiry you made;
to register a student for a test, issue the hall ticket, and share results and scholarships;
to run admissions, classes, tests, parent meetings, receipts and progress reports;
to keep this website secure and prevent duplicate or abusive submissions;
to meet legal, tax and accounting requirements.

We do not sell personal data, rent it, or use it for any purpose you have not been told about.

3. Consent, and students under 18

We process personal data on the basis of your consent, given when you submit a form or join our classes, or where the law otherwise allows it. Under Indian law anyone below 18 is a child. Forms about a student below 18 should be filled in, or approved, by a parent or lawful guardian, and by submitting such a form you confirm that you are that parent or guardian, or have their permission. We do not track children’s behaviour online or show them targeted advertising.

You may withdraw consent at any time by writing to us (section 8). Withdrawing does not affect what was done before, and some services, such as classes or a test registration, cannot continue without the data they need.

4. Results, photos and testimonials

We publish a student’s name, photo, score or review on this website or our social media pages only with the consent of the student and, for a student below 18, their parent or guardian. You can ask us to remove them at any time, and we will do so from our website and our own pages within 15 days.

5. Who we share it with

Only with service providers who help us run our services, and only what they need: our website hosting provider, our payment provider, the messaging services we use to contact you (such as SMS, phone, email or WhatsApp), and online test platforms used in classes. They may use the data only to provide that service to us. We will also disclose data where required by law or by a lawful order of a court or authority. Our servers and service providers may be located in India or abroad; wherever they are, the same protection applies.

6. How long we keep it

Enquiries that do not lead to admission: up to 2 years from the last contact.
Scholarship test registrations and results: up to 2 years after the test, or longer if the student joins us.
Admission, attendance and academic records: while the student studies with us and up to 3 years after.
Fee and payment records: as long as tax and accounting laws require (usually 8 years).
Hashed internet addresses kept for security: up to 1 year.

After that the data is deleted or made anonymous, unless the law requires us to keep it longer.

7. How we protect it

The website runs only over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection. Our admin panel is limited to authorised staff with individual sign-ins, and staff see only what their role needs. We take reasonable security measures to prevent misuse or unauthorised access. If a breach affecting your personal data happens, we will inform you and the Data Protection Board of India as the law requires.

8. Your rights, and how to use them

You (or the parent or guardian of a student below 18) can ask us to:

tell you what personal data we hold about you and how we use it;
correct, complete or update it;
erase it, where we no longer need it for the purpose given or by law;
stop contacting you about admissions or offers;
withdraw your consent;
let a person you nominate act for you in case of death or incapacity.
