M.B. Patil Education respects your privacy. This policy explains what personal information we collect through this website and our admission guidance services, how we use it, and the choices you have. We process personal data in accordance with applicable Indian law, including the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.

  • Application information: documents and academic details you choose to share during the admission process.
  • Referral and campaign information: the referral code or advertising campaign (for example UTM parameters) that brought you to our website, and the page you first landed on.
  • Usage information: pages viewed on our website, such as college and course pages, used in aggregate to improve our service.

How we use your information

  • To respond to your enquiry and provide admission counselling.
  • To schedule and conduct counselling sessions you request.
