At Education Orbit, we take your privacy seriously. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit our website.

1. Who We Are

Our website address is: https://educationorbit.in. We are an educational platform dedicated to providing high-quality MCQ practice for students.

2. Information We Collect & Why

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, the visitor’s IP address, and the browser user agent string to assist in spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment. You can view the Gravatar privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Other visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images hosted on the site.

Contact Forms

If you contact us via a form, we collect your name, email address, and message content to respond to your inquiry. This data is used solely for customer support and is not used for marketing purposes unless you explicitly opt-in.

3. Cookies

We use cookies to enhance your experience and remember your preferences.

  • Comment Cookies: If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies. These last for one year.

4. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if the visitor has visited the other website directly.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that content, especially if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

5. Data Sharing & Security

  • Password Resets: If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
  • Spam Detection: Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

6. How Long We Retain Your Data

  • Comments: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically.
  • User Profiles: For users who register on our website, we store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

7. Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you have the right to:

  1. Request an Export: Receive a file of the personal data we hold about you.
