4. Intellectual Property & Academic Content Rights

All content on this website — including text, educational articles, solved board exam papers, question banks, lecture summaries, brand logos, campus photographs, video walkthroughs, and visual designs — is the exclusive property of Creative Education Foundation or licensed third parties and is protected under the Copyright Act, 1957, and relevant intellectual property treaties.

You may view and download educational materials (such as solved examination papers) for your individual academic revision only. Redistribution, re-hosting, commercial reproduction, or publishing on third-party portals without prior written authorization is strictly prohibited.

5. Online Enquiries, Admissions & Visitor Gate Requests

The website provides digital forms to streamline campus admissions, hostel visits, and parent enquiries:

• No Automatic Admission: Submitting an admission application or enquiry form does not guarantee admission or reservation of a seat. Confirmation of admission requires document verification, eligibility screening, and formal approval by the campus principal.
• Accuracy of Submissions: Applicants and parents are legally responsible for providing accurate 10th/SSLC marks, entrance scores, category details, and contact information. Fraudulent declarations may result in cancellation of application.
• Hostel & Campus Visitor Pass: The visitor request system facilitates safe campus visits. Gate access remains subject to physical identity verification (Government photo ID) and hostel warden or administration approval upon arrival.

6. User Content & Institutional Feedback

If you submit feedback, suggestions, reviews, or testimonials through our forms, you grant the Institution a perpetual, royalty-free, worldwide license to review, utilize, and adapt such suggestions to enhance educational services, campus safety, and academic operations, without obligation to compensate the submitter.

7. Third-Party Integrations & External Links

The website integrates authorized third-party services, including payment gateways (for fee collections), SMS/WhatsApp notification dispatchers (MSG91), YouTube embedded campus channels, and Google Maps. We do not control the independent uptime or data practices of external services, and their terms and privacy policies govern your interactions with them.

8. Disclaimers of Warranties

This website and all educational materials are provided on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis. While we strive for absolute accuracy, the Institution disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including fitness for a particular educational purpose, uninterrupted server availability, or freedom from cyber threats.
