Privacy Policy
Last updated: 26 September 2026
Most of our learners are school students, so protecting personal information is central to how HimanshJosh Junior is built. This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and the choices you and your parent/guardian have.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information that is necessary to create your account and run the learning platform:
- Account details — name, email address, class/grade, and a hashed password.
- Parent/guardian contact details, where consent is provided for students under 18.
- Learning activity — notes viewed, quizzes attempted, scores, streaks and progress.
- Payment details for premium plans, processed securely by our payment partner (see our Payment Policy) — we never store full card numbers on our servers.
- Device and usage data such as browser type, IP address and pages visited, used only for security and improving the product.
2. How We Use Your Information
- To create and maintain your student account and track your learning progress.
- To personalise notes, quizzes and recommendations for your class.
- To send important updates about your account, and — only if you opt in — study tips, offers and reminders by email or WhatsApp.
- To process payments for paid plans and issue receipts.
- To keep the platform secure and prevent misuse of quizzes or accounts.
3. Children's Privacy & Parental Consent
HimanshJosh Junior is designed for students in Class 8–12. Where a student is under 18, we require confirmation of parent/guardian consent at sign-up. Parents/guardians may contact us at any time to review, update or delete their child's information.
4. Sharing of Information
We do not sell your personal data. We share information only with:
- Trusted service providers who help us run the platform (hosting, analytics, payment processing, email/WhatsApp delivery) under confidentiality obligations.
- Law enforcement or regulators, only where required by applicable law.
5. Data Security
Passwords are stored using industry-standard hashing, and access to student data is restricted to authorised staff. While no online platform can guarantee absolute security, we continuously review our systems to reduce risk.
6. Data Retention
We retain account and learning data for as long as your account remains active. If you delete your account, we remove personal data within a reasonable period, except where we must retain records to meet legal, accounting or dispute-resolution obligations.
7. Your Rights
You (or your parent/guardian) can request a copy of your data, ask us to correct inaccuracies, withdraw marketing consent, or request deletion of your account from your profile settings or by writing to us via the Contact Us page.
8. Cookies
We use essential cookies to keep you signed in and remember your preferences, and limited analytics cookies to understand how the platform is used so we can improve it.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be notified on this page with a revised "Last updated" date.
