Last Updated: February 9, 2026 • Jyoti Dham School (CBSE Affiliation No: 430668)

Encrypted Data Protection Commitment
At Jyoti Dham School, we prioritize the privacy and security of our students, parents, guardians, teachers, and website/app users. This policy outlines how information is collected, encrypted, synchronized, and safeguarded across our web portals (jyotidham.in, CBT, LMS) and official Android mobile applications.

1. Information We Collect

We collect only essential information required to provide educational services, process admissions, and support secure digital portal access:

A. Personal & Academic Identifiers

Student and parent names, contact details (email address, mobile phone number), date of birth, grade/class level, residential address, academic records, and examination scores.

B. Authentication & Device Identifiers

Login credentials, encrypted password hashes, authentication tokens, IP addresses, browser types, and unique device identifiers necessary for secure session management and push notifications on mobile applications.

C. Payment Information (Razorpay)

Online fee transactions are processed directly via PCI-DSS compliant payment gateways (Razorpay). We do not store credit/debit card numbers, CVVs, or net banking passwords on school servers. Only payment confirmation IDs and receipts are retained.

2. Google OAuth & User Data Disclosures

Our web and mobile applications offer Google Sign-In / OAuth 2.0 for convenient and secure user authentication.

  • Scopes Requested: Basic profile info (`openid`, `profile`) and verified email address (`email`).
  • Purpose of Use: Google OAuth data is strictly used to authenticate user identity, map authorized student/parent portal accounts, and grant access to assigned learning materials.
  • Strict Non-Disclosure Guarantee: Google user data is never used for advertising, marketing, profiling, or monetization. We do not sell or transfer Google user data to third-party brokers or advertisers under any circumstances.

3. Encrypted Synchronization & Data Security

All data synchronized between student devices, web portals, and mobile applications passes through sophisticated encryption architectures:

  • Encryption in Transit: All HTTP network requests use TLS 1.3 / SSL encryption (HTTPS) to prevent interception or tampering.
  • Encryption at Rest: Database storage and user secrets are encrypted using industry-standard AES-256 encryption.
  • User Isolation: Synchronized data (attendance, assignments, grades, fee receipts) is isolated strictly to the authenticated user account and authorized school administration.

4. Google Play Android Publication & Data Safety Compliance

In accordance with Google Play Developer Policies and data safety disclosures:

  • Data Minimization: Our Android app collects only data essential for school operations and account functionality.
  • No Location Tracking for Ad Targeting: Device location is not tracked or shared for marketing purposes.
  • Child Protection & DPDP Act: Educational data of student minors is managed with explicit parental consent in full compliance with the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act of India.

5. Account Integration & Data Retention Policy

In compliance with Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) mandates, statutory educational regulations, and institutional record-keeping requirements, official student academic records, enrolment histories, and examination data are permanently maintained by Jyoti Dham School.

Users maintain full administrative control over external authentication links and third-party account connections (such as Google OAuth logins). Third-party access permissions and account links may be managed, revoked, or unlinked directly by the user at any time through their respective identity provider settings (e.g., Google Account Security permissions) or by terminating active portal sessions.

6. Third-Party Educational Processors

We integrate with trusted service providers strictly to maintain infrastructure and education workflows:

  • Razorpay: Secure payment processing.
  • Google Workspace for Education: Cloud hosting, database, and authentication services.
  • AWS: Transactional email notifications and official school communications.
