Privacy Policy

1. Information we collect

We collect information in a few ways:

• Account information — name, email address, and role (student, parent, or teacher) when you sign up.
• Profile information — grade, board (CBSE/ICSE/IB/State), subjects, school name, target exam, and (for parent accounts) a child's profile details.
• Learning activity — the lessons and courses you access, quiz and flashcard attempts, answers you submit, scores, mastery and progress data, and messages you send to the AI tutor chat.
• Technical data — IP address, browser/device type, and basic usage logs, collected automatically to keep the Service working and secure.
• Payment information — if you subscribe to a paid plan, our payment processor collects your payment details directly; we do not receive or store your full card or bank details.

2. How we use your information

• To create and manage your account, and to show you the right lessons, courses, and difficulty level.
• To generate practice questions, explanations, flashcards, and AI tutor responses personalised to your grade, board, and performance.
• To track your progress and mastery over time, and to power dashboards and analytics you and (for child accounts) your parent can see.
• To operate, secure, and improve the Service, including diagnosing bugs and preventing abuse.
• To communicate with you about your account, product updates, or in response to feedback you submit.
• To process payments and manage subscriptions, where applicable.

3. AI processing & third-party AI providers

4. Children's privacy

Your Abhyasika is used by school-age learners, including children under 18. Where a child uses the Service under a parent or guardian's account, the parent/guardian is responsible for reviewing this Policy and consenting on the child's behalf.

We collect only the information needed to support a child's learning (profile, grade/board, and learning activity, as described above) and do not knowingly use children's data for third-party advertising. A parent or guardian can review, correct, or request deletion of a child's data at any time by contacting us — see "Your choices" below.

5. Cookies & similar technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember your preferences, and understand how the Service is used so we can improve it. You can control cookies through your browser settings; blocking some cookies may affect parts of the Service, such as staying signed in.

6. How we share information

We don't sell your personal information. We share it only with:

• Infrastructure & service providers — hosting, database, and email/notification providers we use to run the Service.
• AI providers — as described in "AI processing" above, to generate content and chat responses.
• Payment processors — to process subscription payments, where applicable.
• Legal & safety — where required by law, or to protect the rights, safety, or property of Your Abhyasika, our users, or others.

7. Data security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures — such as encrypted connections and access-controlled databases — to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we can't guarantee absolute security, but we work to keep your data safe and to respond quickly to any issue.

8. Data retention

We retain account and learning-activity data for as long as your account is active, so we can continue showing accurate progress and mastery history. If you delete your account, we delete or anonymise your personal information within a reasonable period, except where we need to keep some data for legal, security, or accounting reasons.

9. Your choices & rights

You can, at any time:

• Review and update your profile information from Settings.
• Ask us to export, correct, or delete your (or your child's) personal data.
• Ask us questions about how your data is used.

To do any of this, reach out through the in-app Feedback form and we'll get back to you.

10. Third-party links

The Service may link to third-party sites or services we don't control. This Policy doesn't cover how those third parties handle your information — please review their own privacy policies.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continuing to use the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated Policy.
