◆ What this is

OppIDX is a premium, hand-curated directory of internships, scholarships, fellowships, grants, and competitions. It is not a recruiter, not an application service, and not affiliated with any organization listed here. It is an index — a pointer to real opportunities elsewhere on the web. A limited slice of the board is free to browse; full search is a paid subscription (see /pricing).

◆ Content standards

Every listing — scraped or submitted — must link to exactly one place: a secure (https) URL on the organization's own site where the application actually happens. No shortened, redirected, or social-platform link may stand in for that. Listings may not contain phone numbers, email addresses, @handles, or any instruction to contact someone directly (WhatsApp, Telegram, DMs, or otherwise) in place of a real application process. Nothing illegal or suggestive is permitted. We reserve the right to reject, remove, or unpublish any listing that fails these standards, at our discretion, at any time — including one that was previously live.

◆ Submitting a listing

Anyone may submit a listing for review at /submit for a flat, non-refundable review fee (currently ₹1,000). Paying the fee gets a submission read by a person and checked against the content standards above — it does not guarantee the listing is approved or published, and the fee is not returned either way. We do not review submissions on any guaranteed timeline. Submitted listings that are approved are published unverified-by-source (we have not independently confirmed every detail with the organization) and may be removed later if they turn out to be false, stale, or in violation of these terms.

◆ We are not responsible for what happens next

When you click "Apply," you leave OppIDX and deal directly with that organization. We have no role in their selection process, no visibility into your application, and no ability to intervene on your behalf. Any outcome of an application — positive or negative — is between you and them, not us.

◆ We are not a support desk

We have no customer support line, no dispute resolution process, and no mediation between you and any organization listed. We also don't provide prep materials, coaching, or application review — you'll need to prepare for each opportunity on your own. If something about an application process goes wrong, that's between you and the organization running it.

◆ How listings get here

Three ways. First, a native scraper built into this site checks a short, fixed list of real, already-vetted public sources (job boards, hackathon platforms, government grant databases, community-maintained listings, and individual companies' own career-page APIs) automatically, on an hourly schedule, and maps what those sources publish onto plain, deterministic rules — no AI writes, invents, or selects any part of a listing, and no person reviews these one by one before they go live; the vetting happened at the source level, once. Second, listings are occasionally added by hand by us after being checked directly against the organization's own page. Third, anyone can submit a listing for a fee at /submit — unlike the first two paths, every one of these is read and checked by a real person before it's allowed anywhere near the board, since it didn't come from a source we'd already vetted. Where a source or submitter doesn't state something (like eligibility), we leave that field blank rather than guess.

◆ Where the Subscribers and Opportunity Viewers counts come from

OppIDX also runs in person — the same subscription, sold offline at school and college campus drives, not just on this website. Both the "Subscribers" and "Opportunity Viewers" numbers on the home page are the honest total of two sources: everyone who subscribed or viewed a listing here on the website, plus everyone reached through an offline run. We add the offline totals by hand as each run reports its numbers, since those people don't create a website account or generate a page view here. Neither figure is a website-only number, and we're not going to pretend otherwise.

◆ No guarantees

Listings can go stale between checks. Deadlines, eligibility, and compensation are set by the organization running the program, not by us, and can change without notice on their end. Always confirm the details that matter to you on the organization's own page before relying on anything you read here.

◆ Your data

We collect only what you give us. If you enter your email to join the newsletter, we store that email and nothing else attached to it — no profile, no tracking cookie, no behavioral history. Page views on individual listings are counted in aggregate as a single running number, not tied to any visitor's identity. We do not sell data, and we do not share your email with anyone outside OppIDX.

◆ Who can use this

Anyone can browse OppIDX — no account or login is required to see listings. The only login on this site belongs to the site's own admin account, used to manage and verify listings; it is not a general user-registration system.

◆ Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of India. Any dispute arising from your use of OppIDX is subject to Indian law.

◆ Changes

We may update these terms as the site changes. We'll update the date below when we do. Continuing to use OppIDX after a change means you accept the current version.
