8. Cookies and Similar Technologies

The MCSK website may use cookies or similar technologies where necessary for website functionality, security, session management, or improving the user experience.

Cookies are small data files stored on a user's device by a website.

MCSK takes reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, loss, misuse, or destruction.

Security measures may include access controls, restricted administrative access, secure server practices, authentication mechanisms, and other appropriate safeguards.

However, no method of transmitting or storing information electronically can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Therefore, while MCSK works to protect personal information, it cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted through the internet.

Applicants, students, parents, guardians, and other users are responsible for providing accurate and complete information when using MCSK's online services.

If incorrect or outdated information is submitted, the concerned person may contact MCSK through the official contact channels to request correction, subject to appropriate verification.

12. Links to Other Websites

The MCSK website may contain links to external websites, educational organizations, government websites, examination boards, or other third-party websites.

MCSK is not responsible for the privacy practices, security, content, or policies of external websites.

Users should review the privacy policies of third-party websites before submitting personal information to them.

13. Third-Party Services

Certain website functions may rely on third-party hosting, technical, security, communication, or other service providers.

Where third-party services process information on behalf of MCSK, such processing should be limited to the purposes necessary to provide or maintain the relevant service, subject to applicable agreements and legal requirements.

If additional third-party services involving personal information are introduced in the future, this Privacy Policy may be updated accordingly.

14. Children's Privacy

MCSK is an educational institution serving school-age students. We therefore recognize the importance of protecting information relating to children and minors.

We encourage parents and legal guardians to supervise the submission of personal information by children through online services.

Where an online service requires information about a student, parents or legal guardians should provide or authorize the submission of that information where appropriate.

MCSK will use student information primarily for legitimate educational, admission, administrative, safety, and institutional purposes.

16. Withdrawal or Limitation of Information

Where the provision of information is voluntary, a user may choose not to provide it.

However, certain information is necessary for admission applications, student administration, communication, verification, or other institutional services. Failure to provide required information may prevent MCSK from processing an application or providing the relevant service.
