At SikhyaQ (accessible from sikhyaq.online), the privacy of our students and their parents is our top priority. This document outlines the types of information we collect and how we use it.

1. Information We Collect

We only collect the minimum data necessary to provide our educational services:

• Student Details: Name and Grade/Class (e.g., Class 9).
• Parental Contact: Mobile number (for OTP verification and payment).
• Usage Data: Quiz scores and progress reports to help students track their performance.
• Payment Data: We do not store card or UPI details. All payments are processed securely through Razorpay.

2. Consent for Minors (Children under 18)

As our primary users are school students, we require verifiable parental consent.

• By registering a student on SikhyaQ, the parent/guardian confirms that they have granted permission for the child to use the platform.
• We do not knowingly collect data from children without parental oversight.

3. How We Use Your Information

The data collected is used solely for:

• Creating and managing student accounts on Tutor LMS.
• Sending important updates or results via SMS/WhatsApp.
• Improving our curriculum based on common student performance trends.
• Note: We never sell or share your data with third-party advertisers.

4. Data Security

We use industry-standard security measures (SSL encryption) on sikhyaq.online to protect your information. Access to student data is restricted to authorized personnel only.

5. Your Rights

Parents have the right to:

• Review the information stored about their child.
• Request the deletion of their data at any time by emailing support@sikhyaq.online.

6. Third-Party Services

Our website is built on WordPress and uses Tutor LMS. These tools may use cookies to improve user experience (like keeping you logged in). Our payment partner, Razorpay, handles all financial data under their own secure privacy standards.
