Web Browser Information Use

K8 School may use data your web browser passes on, such as your IP address, browser name and version, computer operating system, resources you are accessing, and the last resource visited by you. These items are recorded in the server’s log file, as is common practice with all websites. The information gathered is often analyzed to better understand what our customers want and need from a technological perspective.

The information collected thus is classified as Non-Personally Identifiable Information, meaning the information gathered does not lead to your identification. Keeping this in mind, we reserve the right to utilize and share the same with third parties. Please note that wherever non-personally identifiable and personally identifiable information is combined, we will treat the combination as personally identifiable information for as long as it remains so combined.

Personnel who supply K8 with their contact information online may receive direct mail, email, or telephone contact from us with information regarding special promotions, new product releases, upcoming events, and services that may be of interest to our customers. However, the information would be handled confidentially.

We reserve the right to share personally identifiable information with some service providers and our affiliated companies. They can make use of the information to process any transactions requested by the user.

These third parties have approved to preserve the confidentiality of the information and to make use of the information only for projects undertaken for K8 School, or as permitted by law.

K8 School contains ‘student educational records’. These records are protected by K8 School in line with the pertinent educational rights and the IT Act, 2000 (s.43A).

We may release your personally identifiable information to a third party if we deem we are obligated to do so under the IT Act, 2000 (s.69) (incl. subpoenas and court orders); to implement our terms of use; to protect the safety, privacy, rights or property of K8 School, our employees, affiliated schools or/and to authorize us to avail remedies or limit the indemnity that we might sustain.

In case all or majority K8 School assets are transferred or sold to any other party, then all information, personally identifiable or not, might also be transferred to the acquiring party.

Discussion Threads And Message Boards

Discussion threads and/or message boards are available through the characteristic learning platform or any other education management system. These may also be part of Live Lesson sessions in the virtual classroom environment. The postings on the discussion threads and/or message boards, or the user’s presence on Live Lesson sessions can be read by anyone who is part of the same. Additionally, any information shared to a discussion thread and/or message boards, verbal or chat pod comment can be included in a Live Lesson session, and then it might be available and disclosed to all users of that specific discussion thread and/or message board, or live session. We do not assure the security of any information disclosed by the user on the aforementioned public forums. Therefore, any postings by the user would be at their own risk.
