From Aadhaar to WhatsApp groups — schools collect a LOT of information.
In 2020, data of 50,000 students and parents from 100 Indian schools leaked online. One unsecured system — and everything was out. Names, phone numbers, addresses — all exposed. If you run a school, college, or coaching centre, this is your wake-up call. You are holding a huge amount of people's information every single day. The new data protection law applies to you too.
Think about your school's WhatsApp groups. Parent names and numbers are right there. Your admission form collects Aadhaar numbers and home addresses. Your fee software stores payment history. Your staff files have PAN cards and salary slips. Your CCTV covers classrooms and corridors. All of this is people's information. Under the new law, you must protect it carefully. You must also tell people why you are collecting it. If something leaks, you are responsible.
