Effective Date: 15 July 2025
Introduction
At Sanik School MCQ mobile app (“we”, “us”, or “our”), your privacy and trust are paramount. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use, share, secure, and store it. By using our app (“App”), you agree to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our App.
What Information We Collect
We collect information in two main categories: User-Provided Information and Automatically Collected Information.
User-Provided Information includes data you give us deliberately, such as:
- Registration details (email address, username, date of birth)
- Profile data (e.g. profile picture, optional bio)
- Responses to quiz questions and shared links
- Feedback, in-app comments, or support enquiries
Automatically Collected Information includes technical and usage data gathered when you use the App, such as:
- Device information (model, operating system version)
- Usage analytics (time spent, questions completed, sharing activity)
- App crash logs and performance diagnostics
- Geolocation data (only if you opt-in, e.g. for localization purposes)
How and Why We Use Your Data
We use your data to:
- Verify your eligibility and enforce the minimum age requirement
- Provide core App functionality, such as tracking performance and levels
- Enable you to share questions and form connections with other users
- Personalize your experience, including notification preferences
- Monitor and enhance App performance and stability
- Communicate with you regarding App updates, features, or policy changes
- Protect our users, App integrity, and comply with legal obligations
We do not use your data for unauthorized advertising or profiling beyond these purposes.
Legal Basis for Processing (for GDPR Users)
For users in jurisdictions that require a legal basis (e.g., GDPR countries), we rely on:
- Consent: Where you’ve agreed (e.g. to receive notifications)
- Contractual necessity: To provide you with App services
- Legitimate interests: Such as improving App features or preventing misuse
- Compliance with legal obligations
Age Verification and Parental Consent
You must be at least 13 years old to register. We will use your date of birth to confirm this. Should we learn that a user is under 13 and lacks verifiable parental consent, we will immediately deactivate the account and delete the data.
If you are between 13 and 17 years old, it is recommended that a parent or guardian review your App use. Parents may contact us for full deletion or management of their child’s data.
Connections, Sharing, and Public Activity
When you share a question and another user accepts, a lightweight connection is formed so that you can later share questions directly in-app. We maintain only metadata about this connection, such as usernames and levels. We do not share answers or personal information beyond the public profile level. You may manage or remove any connection at any time from your settings.
Retention of Your Data
We retain your personal and usage data as long as your account is active and as needed to maintain App functionality. If you delete your account or it is deactivated, we will remove personal data unless we are required to retain it by law or for legitimate business purposes, such as fraud detection or regulatory compliance.
How We Share Your Information
We do not rent or sell your personal data to third parties. We may share information in the following limited contexts:
- With service providers who assist us (e.g., cloud storage, analytics providers)
- To comply with legal obligations (e.g. government requests, law enforcement)
- As part of business transfers (e.g. during mergers or acquisitions)
- With your explicit consent
We ensure that any third parties adhere to strict confidentiality and privacy standards.
Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights:
- Access to the personal data we hold about you
- Correction of incorrect or outdated data
- Deletion of personal data (“right to be forgotten”)
- Objection to certain data processing activities
- Data portability (copying or transferring your data to another service)
- Withdrawal of consent, where previously given
To exercise these rights, please contact us at contact@sainikschoolmcq.com. We will respond within the timeframes required by applicable law.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies (such as device identifiers and local storage) to improve functionality, remember preferences, analyze usage, and serve relevant in-app communications. You may disable these features via your device settings, but doing so may impact functionality.
Security of Your Information
We employ technical, administrative, and physical safeguards to protect your information. This includes data encryption, secure servers, controlled access, and ongoing security monitoring. However, no method of Internet transmission or data storage is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security, though we strive to follow best practices.
Third-Party Links and Integrations
The App may contain links or integrations to third-party services (e.g., analytics tools, ad networks, or social platforms). This Privacy Policy does not apply to such third-party websites or services. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies before using them.
International Data Transfers
Our servers and those of our service providers may be located in different countries. If you are located outside of those countries, your data may be transferred internationally. We will ensure that any such transfer complies with applicable data protection laws and is secured through appropriate safeguards.
Changes to the Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When changes are significant, we will notify you in-app or by email before they take effect. You should review the Policy periodically. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
