Please read this privacy policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this privacy policy, please do not access the site.

We reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Policy at any time and for any reason. We will alert you about any changes by updating the "Effective Date" of this Privacy Policy. You are encouraged to periodically review this Privacy Policy to stay informed of updates.

Collection of Your Information

We may collect information about you in various ways. The information we may collect on the Site includes:

1. Personal Data

  • Email Address: We may collect your email address if you voluntarily provide it to us, for example, when creating a quiz to receive your quiz links or if you sign up for updates (if applicable). Providing your email is optional for core quiz creation.
  • Marketing Preferences: If you provide your email, we may ask for your consent to send you emails about new features or other marketing communications. We will record your preference (consent given or not given).

2. Derivative Data (Cookies & Usage)

  • Cookies & Local Storage: Like many websites, we use cookies and local storage to enhance your experience. Cookies are small data files stored on your device. We use session cookies (which expire when you close your browser) to manage your quiz-taking sessions and ensure functionality. We may also use persistent cookies for remembering preferences or for analytics. Local storage might be used similarly for session management. You can control cookie usage through your browser settings.
  • Usage Information: We may automatically collect standard log information, such as your IP address (which may be anonymized), browser type, operating system, access times, and the pages you have viewed directly before and after accessing the Site. This helps us analyze trends and improve the website.

3. Advertising Data

  • We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads when you visit the Site. These companies may use cookies or web beacons (pixels) to collect information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you. This information is generally non-personally identifiable (it does not include your name or email address).

Use of Your Information

Having accurate information permits us to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience. Specifically, we may use information collected about you via the Site to:

  • Create and manage your quiz, including sending associated links to your email if provided.
  • Send you updates or marketing communications, but only if you have explicitly consented to receive them.
  • Monitor and analyze usage and trends to improve your experience with the Site.
  • Deliver targeted advertising to you (based on non-personal information collected by third-party ad networks).
  • Ensure the security and operational functionality of our Site.
  • Respond to your comments or inquiries (if a contact mechanism is provided).

Disclosure of Your Information

We value your privacy. We do not sell your personal information (like your email address). We may share information we have collected about you in certain situations:

  • By Law or to Protect Rights: If release of information about you is necessary to respond to legal process, investigate potential violations of our policies, or protect the rights, property, and safety of others, we may share your information as permitted or required by any applicable law, rule, or regulation.
  • Third-Party Service Providers: We may share your information with third parties that perform services for us or on our behalf, including data analysis, email delivery (if applicable), hosting services, and potentially advertising networks. We aim to ensure these providers protect your data appropriately.
  • Third-Party Advertisers: We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads. These companies may use information gathered from cookies about your visits to our Site and other websites to provide relevant advertisements. Please consult the privacy policies of these third-party advertisers for more information.

Security of Your Information

We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your personal information. While we have taken reasonable steps to secure the personal information you provide to us, please be aware that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse.

Use of Cookies and Tracking Technologies

As mentioned, we use cookies, local storage, and potentially web beacons to operate the site, manage sessions, analyze usage, and potentially support advertising. Most browsers are set to accept cookies by default. You can usually choose to set your browser to remove cookies and to reject cookies. If you choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, this could affect certain features or services of our Site (like remembering your quiz session).
