Privacy Policy - UPSC Prep 2026

Welcome to UPSC Prep 2026 (referred to as "the App" or "we"). We are committed to protecting the privacy of our users. This Privacy Policy outlines how information is handled when you use our mobile application.

🔒 Offline Privacy Commitment: All of your exam practice, notes, bookmarks, stats, and exam history are stored locally on your device. We do not transmit, share, or store your private learning data on external servers.

1. Information We Collect Automatically

While we do not collect personal data directly, the App integrates third-party services that may collect information automatically to serve advertisements and support app performance. This information may include:

Device identifiers (such as Android Advertising ID or iOS IDFA).
Basic device configurations (device model, operating system version, system language, etc.).
General, non-precise geolocation data (country/city level).

2. Third-Party Services (Google AdMob)

Our App integrates Google AdMob to serve advertisements. AdMob collects and uses device data to serve ads, measure ad performance, and prevent fraud. Google's data practices are governed by Google's official privacy framework.

You can learn more about how Google manages data in ads by visiting the Google Ads Privacy Policy.

3. Children's Privacy

UPSC Prep 2026 is designed for civil services exam aspirants and adult students. It is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently received information from a child under 13, please contact us so we can take immediate steps to address it.

4. Data Storage and Retention

Your preparation data (including practice mock tests, local bookmarks, custom quiz configurations, and progress statistics) is stored securely in the App's local database on your mobile device. Because this data is not synced to external cloud services, deleting the App or resetting your device will permanently clear your local database and progress.

5. Your Rights and Controls

You have full control over how advertising networks track your device for personalized ads:

On Android: Go to Settings > Privacy > Ads > Reset or Opt-out of Ads Personalization.
On iOS: Go to Settings > Privacy > Tracking > Toggle off permission for the App.

6. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date.
