- Academic Analytics: To monitor student progress and provide “Exam-Focus” feedback.
4. Data Retention and Security
As a brand managed with the rigors of Chartered Accountancy standards, we apply strict internal controls:
- Encryption: All data transmitted to and from the website is secured using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) technology.
- Storage: Sensitive documents (such as NIC copies) are stored in encrypted environments and are deleted once student verification is finalized.
- Access Control: Access to your personal data is strictly limited to the founder and authorized administrative personnel.

We do not sell or trade your personal data. We only share data with trusted service providers essential for our operations:
- SMS Gateway Providers: Strictly for the delivery of transactional messages.
