3. Information We Collect and How We Use It

We use specific services provided by Google Firebase to operate our platform. Below is a breakdown of the data we collect and the service used:

  • Firebase Authentication: To manage user sign-up, login, and account security, we process your credentials, such as your email address and hashed password or tokens from social providers like Google.
  • Cloud Firestore: Your core profile information (name, email), the quizzes you create, and your submission results are stored in our secure database hosted on Google Cloud Firestore.
  • Cloud Storage for Firebase: Any files you upload, such as a custom logo for a quiz or a signature for a certificate, are stored securely in Google Cloud Storage.
  • Cloud Functions for Firebase: Sensitive backend tasks, such as processing payments or handling account deletions, are executed in a secure, isolated environment managed by Google.
  • Technical and Usage Data: We collect technical information (IP address, device type) and usage data (pages visited, time spent) to improve our service, ensure security, and for analytics purposes.

Automated Decision Making and AI

Some platform functions use Artificial Intelligence to generate and assess quiz content. These automated processes are not intended to produce legally binding decisions and may have inaccuracies. We use this to provide a better service, which constitutes a legitimate interest.

4. Data Sharing, Disclosure, and Sub-Processors

We do not sell or rent your personal data. We use trusted third-party services, known as sub-processors, to provide our service. Our primary sub-processor is **Google**, which provides our Firebase backend infrastructure.

We may also share information with other essential service providers for functions like payment processing (Razorpay) and analytics, all under strict confidentiality agreements.

Sub‑Processor Details

Below is a comprehensive list of our sub‑processors, the services they provide, the categories of data shared, the purpose of processing, the location of processing, and the legal basis for the transfer.

Where data is transferred outside India or the European Economic Area, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or other approved transfer mechanisms.

This helps us understand feature usage and overall application performance. This data is used in an aggregated and anonymized form to guide our development and enhance our services.
