Inglia Educational Systems
Inglia Educational Systems respects the privacy of students, parents, schools, and all visitors who use its website and academic services. This Privacy Policy explains how personal data is collected, used, stored, shared, and protected when users visit bnto.org.in, register for Bharat National Talent Olympiads (BNTO), contact the organization, make payments, access results, or receive certificates and awards.
This policy has been written in clear and accessible language so that parents, students, and school representatives can understand how information is handled. Since BNTO is designed for school students, special care is taken in relation to children’s data and parent or guardian authorization.
This website and the related Olympiad services are owned and operated by:

For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, Inglia Educational Systems is the organization responsible for deciding how personal data is collected and used in connection with BNTO and related educational services.
This Privacy Policy applies to personal data collected through the website, online forms, registration pages, examination platforms, communication channels, payment flows, support interactions, result publication systems, and certificate or award-related processes operated by or for Inglia Educational Systems.
It applies to students, parents, guardians, school representatives, school coordinators, and any other individuals whose information is processed while using BNTO services.
Depending on the service being used, Inglia Educational Systems may collect information such as:
Only information that is reasonably necessary for the service should be collected. Users are requested not to submit unrelated or unnecessary personal information.
Personal data may be collected and used for the following purposes:
Personal data will not be used for a purpose that is unrelated to the educational and administrative functions of the service, unless permitted by law or separately communicated to the user. [11][7]
BNTO is intended for school students, and many users may be below 18 years of age. Because of this, Inglia Educational Systems treats children’s data with added care. India’s data protection framework requires verifiable parental consent before processing the personal data of children, unless a legally recognized exception applies. [6][8][12]
Accordingly:
Inglia Educational Systems does not knowingly use children’s personal data for harmful profiling, behaviour-based targeting, or child-directed targeted advertising in connection with BNTO.
When a participant registers for BNTO, the submitted data may be used to create records, verify identity, enable exam participation, manage admit information, generate results, and issue certificates or awards.
Examination-related records may include performance data, marks, rank, percentile, award category, attendance or participation logs, and integrity-related review information where necessary for fairness and fraud prevention.
If a user pays an examination or service fee through the website, payment processing may be carried out by authorized third-party payment service providers. Inglia Educational Systems generally does not store complete card credentials, online banking passwords, or UPI PIN information on its own systems.
However, limited payment-related details such as payer name, transaction ID, payment status, amount, and date may be retained for reconciliation, accounting, support, refund handling, and audit purposes.
Participant information may be used to prepare results, ranking lists, merit announcements, certificates, medal dispatch lists, and other recognition records connected to a BNTO examination cycle.
Where rankings or public recognitions are published, the disclosed information may include the student’s name, class, school name, city, state, marks, rank, or award category, to the extent reasonably necessary for the academic purpose of the programme.
If a parent, school, or participant seeks correction of published personal information, a request may be submitted through the official contact channel, and reasonable review steps may be taken before any change is made.
Personal data may be shared only when reasonably necessary for service delivery, legal compliance, or protection of the platform and its users. This may include sharing with:
Inglia Educational Systems does not sell personal data to third-party data brokers. It also does not knowingly share children’s data for inappropriate advertising or harmful commercial targeting.
The website may use cookies, session technologies, security logs, and basic analytics tools in order to keep the site functional, improve usability, reduce fraud, maintain sessions, and understand overall service performance.
These tools may collect device-level or browser-level information that helps the organization detect misuse, improve reliability, and maintain a stable user experience. If non-essential tracking tools are introduced in the future, additional notice or consent measures may be used as appropriate.
Personal data will be retained only for as long as it is reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or for as long as required for examination administration, dispute handling, financial compliance, audit, security review, or legal obligations.
Registration records, transaction details, result records, certificate logs, and grievance records may therefore be retained for a reasonable period even after a particular exam cycle ends. When data is no longer required, it should be deleted, anonymized, or securely archived, depending on the nature of the record and the applicable legal or administrative need.
Subject to applicable law, users may have the right to:
In the case of child participants, these rights may ordinarily be exercised by a parent, legal guardian, or another duly authorized representative.
Reasonable technical and organizational safeguards may be used to protect personal data from unauthorized access, misuse, alteration, loss, or accidental disclosure. These measures may include restricted internal access, password controls, secure transmission methods, role-based access, and operational monitoring.
No internet-based platform can guarantee absolute security at all times. Users should therefore use genuine contact details, protect their own devices, and report any suspicious activity or unauthorized use promptly.
The website may include links to external tools, payment pages, partner platforms, or other third-party services. Inglia Educational Systems is not responsible for the content, privacy practices, policies, or security standards of external websites or independent service providers.
Users are encouraged to review the privacy policy of any third-party platform before sharing information with it.
Users may raise a privacy-related question, correction request, deletion request, or grievance by contacting the organization through the details below. Privacy notices under India’s emerging DPDP compliance practice should provide a clear grievance route and identifiable contact point.
