Cookie Policy
This policy describes the cookies and similar storage used by the current School of Data Science website. It should be read with our Privacy Policy.
1. Scope and current state
This policy covers cookies and similar browser-storage technologies used by this website. Skillsbiz Education Private Limited operates the School of Data Science.
The main Skillsbiz website, student login and other services opened through external links have their own technology configurations and privacy notices.
2. What cookies and similar technologies are
A cookie is a small piece of data a website or service asks a browser to store and return on later requests. Cookies can be short-lived session cookies or persistent cookies, and can be set in a first-party or third-party context.
Websites can also use non-cookie browser storage such as localStorage, sessionStorage, indexed databases, cache identifiers or similar techniques. Because these technologies can sometimes serve similar purposes, this policy discusses them together where useful.
Ends with a browser/session context
Often used for temporary state such as authentication or a multi-step workflow.
Remains for a defined period
May remember settings, authentication or measurement identifiers after a session ends.
Set in the site's own context
May support site functions, preferences or first-party measurement.
Set or read by another service
Can arise through embeds, analytics, advertising, payments, chat or other integrations.
3. Cookies currently used
The website currently sets the following first-party cookies:
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration and settings |
|---|---|---|
XSRF-TOKEN | Helps protect forms and requests against cross-site request forgery. | Up to two hours; Path=/; SameSite=Lax. It is available to the website’s JavaScript so the token can be included in protected requests. |
school-of-data-science-by-skillsbiz-education-session | Maintains the application session and supports secure form handling. | Up to two hours; Path=/; HttpOnly; SameSite=Lax. |
4. Why these cookies are essential
The XSRF token helps confirm that a form request originated from the website. The session cookie maintains the server-side session used to support security and request continuity.
These cookies do not create advertising profiles, measure marketing performance or follow visitors across unrelated websites. Because they support security and the service requested by the visitor, the site does not provide an option to disable them within the website.
5. Preferences and browser storage
The website does not currently use preference cookies, localStorage or sessionStorage to remember language, interface, accessibility or marketing choices.
The Career Assessment keeps answers and scoring in browser memory while the page is open. It does not save them to persistent browser storage unless the user separately submits an enquiry.
6. Analytics and measurement
No Google Analytics, product-analytics platform, session-replay tool or comparable measurement tag is currently configured on this website.
7. Advertising and remarketing
No Meta Pixel, Google Ads conversion tag, remarketing cookie or comparable advertising tracker is currently configured on this website.
Advertising technology will be treated as non-essential. If introduced, it will be documented and controlled in accordance with the applicable notice and consent requirements.
8. Third-party services
The current website does not load third-party analytics, advertising, chat, map, video or scheduling scripts in the browser. Admissions forms are submitted to the Skillsbiz Education server through a protected first-party route.
If you follow a link to another website or service, that destination may set its own cookies under its own policy. We recommend reviewing the destination’s privacy and cookie information.
9. Hosting and security services
Hosting, content-delivery, firewall, anti-bot or load-balancing services may use cookies for security, routing or abuse prevention. The current inventory is based on the website’s application response and configured client-side tools.
If deployment infrastructure introduces another cookie or identifier, we will review its purpose and update this policy where the change is material.
10. Consent and cookie preferences
The website does not currently display a cookie-consent banner because it uses only essential security and session cookies and no non-essential tracking technology is active.
If we introduce cookies that require consent, visitors will receive clear information and an appropriate choice before those cookies operate. Withdrawing consent will be as accessible as giving it.
11. Browser controls
Most browsers allow you to view, block or delete cookies and other site data. The available settings depend on your browser and device.
Blocking all cookies may prevent forms or other security-dependent functions from working correctly. Closing the session or deleting site data removes the current cookies, although new essential cookies may be set when you revisit the website.
12. Children
The website does not use behavioural advertising, targeted-advertising cookies or profiling technology.
Before introducing any technology involving children’s personal data, Skillsbiz Education will conduct a dedicated privacy and legal review and apply the protections required by Indian law as the relevant provisions come into force.
13. Indian data-protection context
A cookie or device identifier may constitute personal data when it relates to an identifiable individual. The Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and DPDP Rules, 2025 are being brought into force in phases.
The ordinary data-processing, notice, consent and individual-rights provisions identified in the 13 November 2025 commencement notification are scheduled to commence eighteen months after that notification. We will continue reviewing the website’s cookie and storage practices as the framework becomes applicable.
See our Privacy Policy for broader information about personal-data handling.
14. Changes to this policy
We review this policy when the website’s technology, hosting, security, analytics, advertising, embedded services or legal obligations change.
If a material change introduces a new cookie category, provider, purpose or duration, we will update the inventory, effective date and any required preference controls.
15. Questions and contact
For a cookie, browser-storage or tracking question, include the page, browser or device context and a short description. Do not send passwords, OTPs, payment credentials or other unnecessary sensitive information.
