Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how University Notification collects, uses, and safeguards information when you visit and browse our university information registry.
1. Overview & Data Philosophy
University Notification is an open, informational public directory. We believe in minimal data footprint: you can browse universities, search circulars, check exam updates, and access notification details without registering an account, logging in, or providing financial information.
We do not collect sensitive personal data such as payment card details, government ID numbers, or academic credentials from general visitors.
2. Information Collected Through Forms & Inquiries
When you voluntarily reach out to us via our Contact Us form to report an inaccurate date, broken link, or submit general feedback, we collect:
- Your name and email address
- The subject category and university name referenced
- The specific text or feedback message provided
This information is used strictly to investigate the report, update incorrect directory entries, and reply to your inquiry. We do not sell, rent, or trade contact form submissions to third-party marketers.
3. Server Logs & Technical Diagnostics
Like most standard web hosting environments, our servers may automatically generate access logs containing standard technical details:
- Internet Protocol (IP) address and approximate regional location
- Browser type, device operating system, and language settings
- Date, time, and requested URL path
- HTTP response status code and referral URL
These server logs are used solely for diagnostic purposes, preventing automated malicious attacks, monitoring system health, and ensuring optimal server responsiveness.
4. Cookies & Local Browser Storage
The platform may use basic browser local storage or essential session cookies solely to preserve UI preferences (such as applied search filter states, view layouts, or comparison selections).
You can instruct your web browser to refuse cookies or clear local storage at any time through your browser settings. The core public search and directory browsing features will continue to function.
5. Third-Party Websites & External University Portals
Our platform provides outbound links to official university websites, circular boards, and PDF documents hosted on external institutional servers.
Once you click an external link and navigate away from University Notification, our Privacy Policy no longer applies. We recommend reviewing the privacy statements of the respective university domains you visit.
6. Data Security, Retention & User Rights
We implement reasonable technical safeguards to protect information submitted through our contact channels. If you have previously submitted an inquiry and wish to request deletion or correction of your message, you may submit a request through our Contact Us page.
