MCA Computer Academy ("we", "us", "our", "the Academy") operates the website mcacomputers.com and the admission, student portal, and certificate verification systems connected to it. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect from students, parents/guardians, and visitors, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, and what rights you have over it.
By visiting our website, submitting an admission or enquiry form, or using the student portal, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy.
When a student enrols at the Academy (in person or via the website), we collect:
We collect the name, phone number, email (if provided), course of interest, and any message you type in.
Students log in using their Registration Number and Date of Birth. We store attendance, fee/payment records, assigned lectures and notes, and certificate details tied to your student record.
Like most websites, our server automatically logs basic technical information when you visit — such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited — for security and troubleshooting purposes. We do not use this to build advertising profiles.
We use the information collected to:
We do not sell your personal information to anyone, for any reason.
Our website includes a certificate verification tool where anyone who enters a valid registration number can see the certificate holder's name, course, and grade. This is intentional — it's how employers and institutions verify that a certificate is genuine — but it does mean this specific information (name, course, grade, registration number) is accessible to anyone who has or correctly guesses a registration number, not just the student. We do not display phone numbers, addresses, or Aadhar numbers through this tool.
Our website uses a small number of third-party services, each of which may independently collect limited technical data (like your IP address) when their content loads on our pages:
These third parties have their own privacy policies governing how they handle data — we encourage you to review Google's and Meta's privacy policies if you have concerns.
We do not share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. We may share limited information:
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information, including password-protected admin access, encrypted password storage, and restricted access to student records based on staff role. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain student records, including admission details and certificates, for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy and to comply with our record-keeping obligations as an educational institute.
Some of our students are minors. Where a student is under 18, admission and enrolment are carried out with the involvement and consent of a parent or guardian, whose details we also collect as described in Section 1.1. Parents/guardians may contact us at any time using the details in Section 11 to review or ask questions about their child's information.
Under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, you have the right to:
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in Section 11.
Our website uses only essential cookies needed for login sessions (admin and student portal) to work correctly. We do not use tracking or advertising cookies.
If you have questions, concerns, or a complaint about how we handle your personal information, please contact:
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect the most recent revision. Continued use of our website or services after changes are posted means you accept the revised policy.
This Privacy Policy is governed by the laws of India. Any disputes will be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts in Ludhiana, Punjab.
