Campus Data & Privacy Notice

Built by students at KC E-Cell, for KC College of Engineering. We believe privacy is an engineering requirement, not a legal afterthought.

1. Waitlist Information

When you sign up via our waitlist, you submit your name, department, year, and college email address (@kccemsr.edu.in). We use this information solely to verify current enrollment and notify you when access opens for your division. We never share, sell, or commercialize your contact information with third parties.

2. Attendance & Verification Architecture

Attendance marks on the commons. are engineered around mathematical trust and student transparency:

  • Transparent receipts: Every lecture records when and how it was marked, allowing you to audit your own attendance against the 75% threshold in real time.
  • Honest location checks: Geofencing evaluates device GPS uncertainty circles rather than brittle single-point coordinates to avoid penalizing students standing near boundary walls.
  • Evidence grading: Wi-Fi access point matching is treated as a confidence indicator, never as a hard lockout. iOS devices that restrict native Wi-Fi scanning are never penalized.
  • Immutable audit trail: All manual teacher overrides require an accompanying explanation and are recorded in an append-only audit log that cannot be silently modified.

3. Student Communities & Pseudonymous Handles

The Rant Room and student forums exist to give students an honest space to discuss campus life:

  • Cryptographic separation: Your student identity is verified for college enrollment, but community posts are published under generated handles (such as sleepy-heron-12).
  • Student-only boundary: Faculty members, teachers, and department heads have no read or write access to student rant spaces.
  • Zero academic impact: Nothing posted under a community handle ever links to your attendance record, internal marks, or official student profile.

4. Analytics & Cookies

This public website uses privacy-focused, cookie-free web analytics to monitor site reliability and page performance. We do not track individual users across other websites or store advertising cookies on your device.

5. Contact & Questions
