Welcome to Global Tutor — an AI-powered learning platform designed to help students prepare for Cambridge O & A Level exams. Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our website and services.

1. Information We Collect

We only collect the information necessary to create and maintain your account:

• Name – to personalize your experience.
• Email address – to identify your account and communicate with you.
• Password – securely stored in encrypted form to protect your account.

We do not collect or store payment information directly; payments (if applicable) are handled securely by third-party payment providers.

We may also collect limited technical data automatically when you use our platform:

• Browser type and version
• IP address (for security and analytics)

This data helps us keep the site secure and improve performance.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

• Provide access to the AI tutor and study tools
• Communicate essential updates (like password resets or service notifications)
• Improve our website and services
• Ensure platform security and prevent abuse

We do not use your information for advertising or share it with marketers.

3. Use of AI and the Gemini API

Global Tutor uses Google’s Gemini API to generate explanations, tutoring responses, and study help. When you interact with the AI tutor:

• The text you submit (your prompts or questions) is securely sent to Google’s API for processing.
• Responses are generated automatically and shown to you.
• We do not share your name, email, or any personally identifiable data with the Gemini API.

For more information on how Google handles data within Gemini, you can view Google’s Privacy Policy.

4. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We only share minimal information when necessary to provide our services, such as:

• Hosting and infrastructure providers that help run our website
• Email or authentication services (for login and notifications)

All partners are bound by data protection and confidentiality agreements.

5. Data Security

We take data protection seriously and use industry-standard safeguards, including:

• HTTPS encryption for all connections
• Secure password hashing and salting
• Restricted data access for authorized staff only

While no online service is 100% secure, we continuously monitor and update our systems to protect your information.

6. Data Retention

We keep your information as long as your account is active. You can delete your account anytime, and your personal data (name, email, and password) will be permanently removed from our systems.

7. Children’s Privacy

Global Tutor is intended for users aged 13 and above. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that a child under 13 has provided personal data, we will delete it immediately.
