Privacy Policy

1. Information You May Provide

We do not require account registration to browse this website. If you choose to contact us — for example, to report a correction, ask a question, or send feedback — we only receive the details you voluntarily type into the contact/correction form, such as your name, email address, and message. This information is sent directly to our editorial email address and is used solely to respond to your query.

We do NOT ask for, collect, or store sensitive personal information such as Aadhaar numbers, ration card numbers, bank account details, OTPs, or login credentials, and you should never share such information with us.

2. Automatically Collected Technical & Usage Data

Like most websites, our hosting and analytics providers may automatically log standard technical information when you visit, such as your approximate location (city/region), browser type, device type, pages viewed, and referring pages. This information is collected in aggregate and is used only to understand site performance and improve the reading experience — it is not used to personally identify you.

3. Cookies

We may use standard browser cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage) for basic site functionality, remembering display preferences, and measuring traffic. You can disable or clear cookies at any time through your browser settings; doing so may affect some non-essential site features but will not prevent you from reading scheme guides.

4. Analytics

We may use third-party web analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to understand aggregated traffic patterns, popular pages, and site performance. These tools may use cookies or similar identifiers and process data in accordance with their own privacy policies. Analytics data is used only to improve this website and is not sold or shared for unrelated purposes.

5. Advertising & Third-Party Services

This website may display advertisements served by third-party advertising networks, including Google AdSense, to help support the cost of running an independent, free-to-use informational service. Google and its advertising partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. You can learn more about how Google uses this data, and opt out of personalised advertising, by visiting Google's Ads Settings and Google's Privacy & Terms page. We do not control the content of third-party advertisements and are not responsible for the privacy practices of advertisers or ad networks.

6. Third-Party & External Government Links

Our scheme guides link to official West Bengal Government and Government of India portals (such as domains ending in .wb.gov.in and .gov.in) so that you can apply or verify details directly at the source. Once you click an external link, you leave our website and are subject to the privacy policy and terms of that external site, over which we have no control.

7. Data Security

We take reasonable technical measures to protect any information sent to us, such as using secure (HTTPS) connections. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please avoid sending sensitive personal or financial information through our contact forms.

8. Children's Privacy

This website is intended for general public use, including by parents or guardians seeking scheme information on behalf of children/students. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will remove it promptly.

9. Your Privacy Choices

You may browse this website without submitting any personal information. You may disable cookies in your browser, opt out of personalised advertising through your browser or Google's ad settings, and request that we delete any correspondence you have sent us by emailing our editorial address below.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal/operational reasons. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will always reflect the most recent revision. Continued use of the website after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
