Vantage Design School (“we”, “us”, or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, share, and safeguard information when you interact with our website, enroll in our courses, or use our learning services and online platforms. By using our website or services, you agree to the practices outlined in this policy. If you do not agree, we recommend that you discontinue the use of our services.

When you visit our website or sign up for our services, we may collect personal information such as your full name, phone number, email address, residential address, gender, age, and academic background. If you are a parent or guardian registering on behalf of a student under 18, we may also request your contact details and consent for the student’s participation. This information is collected to facilitate communication, verify identity, and deliver educational content tailored to the student’s needs.

In addition to personal data, we collect technical and usage-related information such as your IP address, device type, operating system, browser type, pages visited, time spent on the site, and the website from which you arrived. This data helps us improve our platform’s performance, ensure security, and offer a more customized user experience. We may also track your activity on our learning portal, including course progress, assignment submissions, and quiz results to support academic evaluation.

Payment-related information is collected during course enrollment. While we receive details such as the course you registered for and the payment amount, we do not store your debit or credit card information. All transactions are securely processed through trusted third-party payment gateways like Razorpay, which are compliant with Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI-DSS). These gateways encrypt your financial data and only retain it as necessary to complete your transaction.

We may collect additional data through surveys, contact forms, support tickets, and email or chat conversations. We may also gather data through social media interactions where you engage with our official pages, tag us in public posts, or participate in contests or feedback requests. If you voluntarily submit testimonials, reviews, or feedback, we may publish these with your name, with your consent, to help inform prospective students.

All information we collect is used with the intent to enhance our services, provide academic support, respond to inquiries, process payments, and deliver relevant course content. Your data also allows us to send updates regarding course schedules, new program launches, upcoming webinars, reminders, and promotional offers. We may use your contact information to send occasional emails, WhatsApp messages, or SMS updates about your enrollment or related events. If at any time you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may opt out through the unsubscribe link or by writing to us directly.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties. However, we may share limited information with trusted service providers who help us manage operations, such as email delivery systems, cloud storage providers, analytics platforms, and marketing tools. These third-party services are bound by confidentiality agreements and are authorized to use your data only as necessary to perform their functions on our behalf.

We may also disclose your information if required to do so by law, to comply with a legal obligation, to protect the safety of our users, or in the event of an investigation involving fraud, abuse, or a security breach. If Vantage Design School is acquired or merges with another organization, your information may be transferred to the new entity in accordance with this policy.

Our website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance user experience and monitor performance. Cookies help us remember your preferences, keep you logged in during a session, and collect statistical data for analysis. You may disable cookies through your browser settings, although doing so may affect certain features of the website.

To protect your personal information, we adopt industry-standard security measures, including encrypted communication, secure servers, and restricted access to data. While no system is 100% secure, we continuously review and update our protocols to ensure the highest level of data protection possible.

Our services are primarily intended for students aged 13 and above. If a student is a minor (under 18), the consent of a parent or guardian is required for registration and participation. We take additional care when handling data belonging to minors and expect parents to review this policy with their children before enrolling.

You have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you, to correct inaccuracies, or to ask us to delete your data under applicable data protection laws. You may also withdraw your consent for us to use your data at any time by contacting us. However, this may impact your access to some or all of our services.

We reserve the right to update or revise this Privacy Policy at any time. Any changes will be reflected on this page, and your continued use of the website after such changes indicates your acceptance of the updated terms. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we handle your information.

If you have any questions, concerns, or requests related to your personal data or this policy, you may contact us at hello@vantagedesign.in. We will make every effort to respond promptly and resolve any concerns in accordance with applicable laws and best practices.
