Privacy Policy

At AKME Immigrations & Education (referred to as "AKME Immigrations", "we", "us", or "our"), safeguarding your personal information is paramount. This Privacy Policy outlines our standards concerning the collection, storage, handling, and protection of information gathered through our website (https://akmeimmigrations.com) and in-person consultations at our Patiala office.

1. Information We Collect

When you submit a Free Profile Assessment, register for IELTS/PTE classes, or initiate an online payment, we may collect:

• Contact Information: Full name, telephone/WhatsApp number, email address, and residential city.
• Academic & Professional Details: Educational qualifications, passing years, academic marksheets, IELTS/PTE/language test scorecards, and work experience.
• Application Preferences: Target study country, preferred degree programs, and estimated financial budget.
• Technical & Analytics Data: IP address, device type, browser information, UTM referral parameters, and pages visited.

2. How We Use Your Information

Candidate information is used solely for genuine educational guidance and immigration assessment, including:

• Assessing course eligibility across designated learning institutions (DLIs).
• Connecting you with an assigned counsellor via telephone, email, or WhatsApp.
• Processing official admission applications with your prior authorization.
• Generating receipts for consultancy fees and maintaining statutory accounting records.

3. Zero Third-Party Selling Policy

We do not sell, rent, trade, or distribute your personal details to commercial third-party marketing brokers. Your details are only shared with official educational institutions, credential assessment bodies (such as WES), or statutory visa portals upon your explicit instruction.

4. Data Security

We implement industry-standard 256-bit SSL encryption for data in transit and restricted server access controls for stored candidate records. Payment transactions are processed via Razorpay's PCI-DSS Level 1 compliant gateway; AKME Immigrations never stores customer card numbers or banking passwords.
