Privacy Policy

Effective 1 August 2026 · Last updated 12 August 2026

FreeEdu Technologies Private Limited (“FreeEdu”, “we”, “us”) operates the website freeeduaiacademy.in (this “Site”) and the FreeEdu AI Academy mobile/web application (the “App”). This policy explains what data we collect on the Site, why, and your rights under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 (India) and, where applicable, COPPA (US). The Site is a marketing/informational website aimed at students, parents, teachers, and institutions researching FreeEdu — account creation, learning activity, and in-app data are governed by the App’s own privacy notice, summarized in §6 below.

1. Information We Collect on This Site

Information you give us — if you use the contact form, newsletter signup, or a “Request a demo” form: your name, email address, phone number, school/institution name, and message content.

Information collected automatically — like most websites, we (and our service providers) automatically collect:

  • IP address, approximate location (city/region), device and browser type
  • Pages visited, time on page, referring/exit pages, and general usage patterns
  • Cookies and similar technologies (see §2 and §3 below)

2. Cookies & Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use this Site, so we can improve it. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect standard internet log information and visitor behavior in an anonymous form. You can opt out of Google Analytics using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time; note that disabling cookies may affect how parts of this Site function.

3. Advertising (Google AdSense)

This Site uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies (including the DoubleClick cookie) to serve ads based on your prior visits to this Site and other sites on the Internet. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to this Site and/or other sites.

  • You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
  • You can also opt out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.
  • Our Site’s ads.txt file publicly declares the advertising sellers authorized to sell inventory on our behalf, per the IAB Tech Lab standard.

We do not knowingly direct-target advertising at children under 13, and we do not use FreeEdu’s student-facing App (as opposed to this marketing Site) to serve third-party ads to logged-in students.

4. How We Use Your Data

  • Responding to inquiries — contact form, demo requests, support emails
  • Improving the Site — understanding which pages/content are useful
  • Serving relevant ads — via Google AdSense, as described in §3
  • Legal compliance — responding to lawful requests from authorities

We do not sell your personal data.

5. Data Sharing

We share data only with:

  • Google — Analytics and AdSense (see §2–§3)
  • Google Cloud / Firebase — hosting infrastructure for this Site and the App
  • Email/CRM providers — to respond to contact-form submissions
  • Law enforcement — only when legally required under Indian law

6. The FreeEdu App (Summary)

The FreeEdu App collects additional data to power personalized learning — account details, learning progress, AI mentor chat history, and (with explicit parental consent only) Smart Guardian parental-control data. The App:

  • Stores all data in asia-south1 (Mumbai, India)
  • Does not show third-party ads to signed-in students
  • Applies stricter safeguards and disables direct messaging by default for under-13 users
  • Lets any user erase their account and data via “Delete My Account” in the App

For the full App privacy notice, see the in-app Privacy Policy under Profile → Settings, or contact us using the details in §9.

7. Your Rights (DPDP Act 2023)

  • Right to access — request a copy of data we hold about you
  • Right to correction — correct inaccurate data
  • Right to erasure — request deletion of data you’ve submitted via this Site
  • Right to grievance redressal — contact our Grievance Officer, who will respond within 72 hours

8. Children's Privacy

This Site is intended for parents, teachers, institutions, and prospective adult users researching FreeEdu — it is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through this Site’s contact/demo forms. The FreeEdu App itself is used by students of all ages under the data protections summarized in §6, including parental-consent requirements for its Smart Guardian feature.
