Privacy Policy - WPU GŌA

Thank you for visiting the official WPU GŌA site and taking a moment to read our Privacy Policy.

Your trust matters to us, and we take your privacy seriously. This policy explains how data is collected, stored, and used whenever you interact with our site. In brief, we gather personal details only when you choose to provide them. We never sell, trade, or rent your information to third parties.

All data is used exclusively for legitimate university activities and managed with strict care. For specifics on technical logs and voluntary submissions, please see the sections that follow.

Non-Personal Information That We Record

When you browse our site without submitting personal details, our servers automatically capture certain technical metadata about your session, including:

• the Internet domain of your service provider;
• the make and version of the web browser employed;
• the operating system running on your device;
• the date and time of each visit;
• the specific pages accessed and the duration of each view; and

We process this information exclusively for statistical reporting and to refine site architecture, user flow, and overall performance. All data is reviewed only in aggregate form and is never used to identify individual visitors.

Cookies

WPU GŌA employs cookies on selected pages to deliver a smoother, more secure browsing experience. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device while you navigate a site; it helps the system recognise your session, preserve preferences, and enable interactive features. Cookies set by WPU GŌA do not capture personally identifiable information. Their sole purpose is to improve usability and streamline navigation.

You remain in control: most browsers let you receive a prompt before a cookie is stored or to block cookies altogether. Please be aware that disabling cookies may limit certain site functions. When using a shared or public computer, we recommend closing the browser once your session ends to protect your privacy.

Information Collected Through Interactive Forms

Specific sections of the WPU GŌA website contain secure, interactive forms through which you may choose to share personal details—for example, when you:

• Submit an admissions enquiry,
• Schedule a counselling session or campus tour,
• Download a brochure or application,
• Register for events, workshops, seminars, or tests, or
• Send us an electronic mail.

Any data you supply, such as your name, email address, phone number, or programme interests, is recorded so we can answer your query, process your request, or keep you informed about relevant university matters. We collect such information only when you actively provide it, and you are free to explore the site anonymously if you wish.

Information received through these forms is used strictly for the purpose stated at the point of collection. It is never disclosed to unauthorised third parties and is retained only for the time needed to meet administrative or communication requirements consistent with applicable law and university policy.

Communication and Consent

If you submit your personal information and contact details to WPU GŌA, you expressly authorise WPU GŌA to contact you through telephone calls, SMS, email, or WhatsApp regarding admissions, academic programs, campus updates, services, application processes, and other university-related information.

This authorisation shall remain valid even if your mobile number is registered under the Do Not Disturb (DND) or National Customer Preference Register (NCPR). By voluntarily submitting your contact details through any form or electronic communication on our website, you provide explicit consent to receive such communication from WPU GŌA.

Such communication shall be considered consent-based communication initiated through your voluntary interaction with the university.

Email Communication

Email communication over the internet may not be fully secure against interception. If you include personally identifiable information in your email correspondence, such information will be used solely for responding to your request. Users are advised to provide only the information necessary for processing their enquiry.

Data Security

WPU GŌA implements reasonable administrative, technical, and procedural safeguards to protect personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. While we strive to maintain security standards, no method of internet transmission is completely secure, and users share information at their own discretion.
