Our website may also collect limited technical information such as IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, referral source and information generated through cookies, analytics or advertising-measurement technologies.
We aim to collect only information that is reasonably relevant to the purpose for which you contact us.
3. Why We Collect and Use Information

- conduct an initial consultation;
- provide agreed consultancy services;
- communicate with you;
- review relevant information you provide;
- manage appointments;
- maintain appropriate business records; and
- provide customer support.
We may also use limited information to operate and improve our website, understand website usage, measure advertising performance, maintain security, manage our business and comply with applicable legal or regulatory requirements.
Personal information will not intentionally be used for unrelated purposes unless there is an appropriate legal or business basis to do so.
4. Enquiry and Consultation Forms
When you submit an enquiry or consultation form, you authorise Wizdom International to use the information you provide to respond to your request and communicate with you regarding the relevant service.
Submitting a form does not mean that any educational institution, employer or other third party has received, reviewed or approved your information.
An initial consultation is intended to help us understand your circumstances and identify information or services that may be relevant to you.
5. Communication With You
We may communicate with you through telephone, email, WhatsApp, SMS or another appropriate communication method using the contact details you provide.
Service-related communication may include appointment details, requested information, service updates and responses to your enquiry.
Where applicable, promotional communication will be handled in accordance with your communication preferences and applicable requirements.
You may ask us to stop non-essential promotional communication by contacting us.
6. Information You Provide
Information voluntarily provided to Wizdom International will be used for the purpose for which it was requested or provided and for related agreed consultancy services.
We do not encourage users to provide personal information that is not reasonably required at the relevant stage of an enquiry or service.
Clients are responsible for ensuring that information provided to Wizdom International is accurate, genuine and lawfully shared.
7. How Information May Be Shared
Wizdom International does not sell personal information to advertisers or unrelated third parties.
Where reasonably necessary to provide a service requested by you, relevant information may be shared with educational institutions, examination providers, technology or communication providers, professional service providers or other appropriate organisations involved in delivering the requested service.
Only information reasonably relevant to the applicable purpose should be shared.
Information may also be disclosed where required by applicable law, legal process or regulatory requirement.
8. Service Providers
We may use third-party providers to support website hosting, website forms, customer relationship management, communications, email, analytics, advertising measurement, security, cloud services or other business operations.
These providers may process limited personal information on our behalf or in connection with the services they provide.
Where appropriate, we expect service providers handling personal information to use suitable privacy and security safeguards.
9. Cookies, Analytics and Advertising Technologies
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate website functionality, remember preferences, understand website usage, measure performance and evaluate advertising activity.
We may use Google Analytics and Google Ads to understand website activity and measure advertising performance.
Google and other technology providers may use cookies or similar technologies in accordance with their own privacy policies and user controls.
You can manage personalised advertising preferences through:
https://adssettings.google.com/
You may also manage or block certain cookies through your browser settings.
Where required, visitors may be given choices regarding non-essential cookies.
Restricting cookies may affect some website features.
10. Advertising and Conversion Measurement
We may use advertising and analytics technologies to understand how visitors discover and interact with our website and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.
Such measurement may include information about website visits, page interactions, referral sources or completed enquiry actions.
We do not sell personal information to advertisers.
Information collected through third-party advertising or analytics platforms is also subject to the applicable provider’s privacy terms and controls.
11. Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, organisational and technical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, misuse, alteration, loss or disclosure.
Access to personal information should be limited to people or service providers who reasonably require it for an authorised business purpose.
No website, internet transmission or electronic storage system can be treated as completely risk-free.
We therefore use reasonable safeguards but do not make absolute security claims.
12. Data Retention
Personal information will generally be retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including:
- providing requested services;
- maintaining appropriate business or accounting records;
- resolving disputes; and
- meeting applicable legal or regulatory obligations.
The appropriate retention period may vary depending on the type of information, nature of the service and applicable requirements.
When information is no longer reasonably required, it may be deleted, anonymised or securely archived as appropriate and permitted by applicable law.
13. Your Privacy Choices and Requests
Subject to applicable law, you may contact Wizdom International regarding personal information you have provided to us.
You may request:
- correction of inaccurate information;
- information about how your personal information is being used;
- withdrawal of consent where applicable;
- deletion where legally permissible; or
- removal from non-essential promotional communications.
Certain information may need to be retained where reasonably required for legal, contractual, accounting, dispute-resolution, fraud-prevention or legitimate business-record purposes.
Privacy requests may be subject to reasonable verification so that personal information is not disclosed, changed or deleted in response to an unauthorised request.
We aim to handle personal information in accordance with applicable Indian data-protection requirements.
14. Children and Minors
Our services may sometimes involve students who are under the age of 18.
Where personal information relating to a minor is reasonably required for an education-related service, it should be provided with the involvement or authorisation of a parent, legal guardian or other person authorised to act on the minor’s behalf, as applicable.
We do not intentionally ask minors to independently provide unnecessary personal information.
15. International Education and Overseas Organisations
Some of our services relate to educational institutions, examination providers or other organisations located outside India.
Where reasonably necessary for a service requested by you, relevant information may therefore be processed by or shared with an appropriate organisation or service provider located outside India, subject to applicable requirements.
Before providing sensitive or important information directly to another organisation, clients should review that organisation’s applicable privacy information.
16. External Websites
Our website may contain links to educational institutions, examination providers or other external websites.
Wizdom International does not control how independent third-party websites collect or process personal information.
When you leave our website and provide information directly to another organisation, that organisation’s privacy policy and terms will apply.
17. Accuracy of Your Information
Please provide information that is accurate, complete and current.
If information you have provided to us materially changes during an enquiry or ongoing service, please inform us so that relevant records can be updated where appropriate.
18. Data Breaches and Security Incidents
If we become aware of a personal-data security incident, we will assess the circumstances and take reasonable steps appropriate to the nature and seriousness of the incident.
Where notification or other action is required under applicable law, we will take steps consistent with those requirements.
19. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when our services, technology, business practices or applicable requirements change.
The current version will be published on this page together with the updated Last Updated date.
Users are encouraged to review this page periodically if they continue to use our website or services.
