Smart Tayari (“we”, “us”, “our”) is an independent exam-preparation platform for Nepali government exams (Lok Sewa Aayog and similar). This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the app or website you agree to this policy.
1. Information we collect
Information you provide
- Account data — email address and display name when you register or sign in.
- Profile data — target exam, post preference and language choice (Nepali / English).
- Learning data — quiz attempts and scores, bookmarks, saved/offline notes, study progress.
Information collected automatically
- Device & logs — app version, Android version, crash and diagnostic logs (via Firebase).
- Push token — a Firebase Cloud Messaging token, only if you allow notifications. You can decline the prompt; notifications are optional.
- Advertising ID — Google’s advertising identifier, used only to show and measure ads (see §4).
2. How we use information
- To create and secure your account, and to keep you signed in.
- To personalise preparation: target exam, recommended notes, quizzes and previous-year papers.
- To save your progress (quiz results, bookmarks, offline notes) and sync it across devices.
- To send optional notifications about exams, notices and quiz reminders — only with your permission.
- To operate, monitor and improve the app (analytics, crash reporting).
- To display and measure advertising.
3. Where data is stored
Data is stored on Google Firebase (Authentication, Cloud Firestore, Hosting, Cloud Messaging, Analytics) in Google’s cloud. We store only what is described above. Quiz and note content you save for offline use is stored on your device and in your account. We keep account data while your account exists; you can request deletion at any time (§6).
4. Advertising
The app may display advertisements served by Google AdMob (a Google AdMob / Google Ads service). AdMob may collect and use the advertising identifier on your device to personalise ads. You can reset or opt out of personalised ads using your device’s advertising settings. Current development/testing builds serve Google test advertisements only.
We do not sell your personal information.
5. Sharing
- Google/Firebase — as our infrastructure processor (auth, database, hosting, messaging, analytics).
- Google AdMob — for advertising as described above.
- Legal requirements — if required by applicable law or to protect rights and safety.
No other third parties receive your personal information.
6. Your choices & rights
- Notifications — deny the permission prompt, or disable it later in Android settings.
- Advertising — reset/opt-out of the advertising identifier in Android settings.
- Account & data — view or correct your profile inside the app (Profile tab), or email us to access, correct, export or delete your account data.
- Language — switch Nepali/English any time in the Profile tab.
7. Children
Smart Tayari is a general-audience study platform. It is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
8. Security
Data travels over encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS) and is accessible only through authenticated requests. While no system is 100% secure, we follow industry-standard practices to protect your information.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The “effective date” above shows when it was last revised. Material changes will be announced in the app or on the website.
