At StudyLeap, your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your information when you use our mobile application (“StudyLeap”, “we”, “our”, or “us”). By using our services, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Information We Collect

We collect the following personal information directly from users when they use our application:

• First and last name – for account identification and personalization
  
  
• Username – to uniquely identify your profile within the app

• Date of birth – to ensure age-appropriate features and content
  
  
• User feedback – to help us improve our services and respond to your input
  
  

We currently do not collect location data. However, we may begin processing non-precise location data in the future to improve personalization and relevance. When this occurs, we will update this Privacy Policy and notify users in advance.

2. Use of Information

4. Sharing of Information

We are committed to safeguarding your data and currently do not sell or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

However, in the future, we may partner with trusted local businesses or service providers to deliver city-specific promotions or advertisements that we believe may be relevant to you. If we enable such partnerships:

• Only limited and necessary information (such as your selected city or content preferences) may be shared.
  
  
• No sensitive personal data (like your name, email, or date of birth) will be shared without your explicit consent.
  
  
• We will provide clear opt-in options and allow you to manage your sharing preferences at any time.
  
  

5. Data Security

We take data protection seriously and use appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. While no system can be 100% secure, we strive to follow best practices in app security and data handling.
