5. Cookies and Tracking
We use the following categories of cookies:

- Analytics: anonymised data to understand how the Platform is used (e.g., page views, test completion rates). You may opt out via browser settings.
- Preferences: cookies that remember your settings (e.g., dark mode, filter selections).
Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies or alert you when cookies are being sent. Disabling strictly necessary cookies may impair your ability to log in or use the Platform.
6. Data Retention
We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as necessary to provide services. If you request account deletion, we will delete or anonymise your personal data within 30 days, except where we are legally required to retain certain records (e.g., financial transactions for tax and audit purposes, typically 7 years under Indian law).
7. Data Security
We implement industry-standard technical and organisational measures to protect your information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction, including:
- TLS encryption for all data in transit.
- Passwords stored as encrypted hashes (never in plain text).
- Row-level security (RLS) policies on all database tables.
- Regular security reviews and access controls limited to authorised personnel.
No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Children's Privacy
The Platform is intended for individuals preparing for the NEET examination and is directed at users who are at least 16 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe a child under 16 has provided us personal information, please contact us immediately and we will delete it.
