Cookies We Use

We use a small, focused set of cookies, grouped into the categories below.

3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function correctly. Without them, core features — such as page navigation and form submissions — may not work properly.

Note: Strictly necessary cookies do not collect any personally identifiable information and cannot be disabled, as they are essential to the website's operation.

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website — which pages are visited, how long visitors stay, and where they come from. This helps us improve the content and structure of our website for the school community.

Important: Google Analytics data is aggregated and anonymised. We do not use it to identify individual visitors. Google may process this data on servers outside India. For more information, see Google's Privacy Policy.

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking at any time using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Our website may occasionally link to external websites — for example, the CBSE portal or educational resources. Those websites may set their own cookies, which are governed by their own cookie and privacy policies.

We have no control over third-party cookies set by external websites you navigate to from our site.
