3. How we use your information

4. Service providers we share with

We use trusted providers strictly to run the App. They process data on our behalf and are bound by their own privacy and security obligations:

5. Data retention

We keep your personal data only for as long as it is needed to provide the App and for legitimate legal or operational purposes:

DataRetention period

6. Data deletion — your right to be forgotten

You can permanently delete your account and all associated learning data at any time:

Option A — In the App (instant)

Open Profile → Settings → Delete Account. This immediately and permanently removes your profile, progress, avatar, country, and your public leaderboard entry from our database, and deletes your authentication account.

Option B — By email request

Email uzairmicrosoft7@gmail.com from the email on your account with the subject “Delete my account.” We will verify and complete deletion within 30 days.

What is deleted

Your profile, learning progress, avatar, country, leaderboard row, and login credentials.

What may remain

Anonymized or aggregated statistics that cannot identify you; payment/transaction records held by Google, Apple, or RevenueCat for legal compliance; and residual copies in encrypted backups for up to 90 days before they are overwritten.

7. Children’s privacy

The App is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will delete it.

8. Security

Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS) and stored using Google Firebase with access controls that restrict each user to their own data. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we work to protect your information.

9. International transfers

Your data is stored on Google’s infrastructure and may be processed in countries other than your own. We rely on our providers’ safeguards for such transfers.

10. Your rights

Depending on your location (e.g., GDPR in the EU/UK, CCPA in California), you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data, and to object to certain processing. You can exercise deletion directly in the App (Section 6) or contact us for other requests.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. We will revise the “Last updated” date above and, for material changes, provide notice in the App.
