Privacy policy
Apti4All (“we”, “us”) runs apti4all.com, a free self-study library for aptitude-based entrance exams. This page explains what information we collect, why, and the choices you have.
What we collect
- You don't need an account. You can read and practise everything without signing up.
- Contact form: your name, email, optional mobile number and message, so we can reply.
- Comments and doubts under questions: the name you enter, your comment and, if you give it, your email (never shown publicly). Comments appear only after a moderator approves them.
- Error reports: the text you send about a question.
- Newsletter: your email address, if you subscribe.
- Practice progress: which questions you answered right or wrong is stored only in your own browser (local storage), not on our servers. Clearing your browser data removes it.
- Technical data: like any website, our servers receive your IP address and browser details when you visit; we use these for security (for example, blocking spam) and keep them only briefly.
Cookies
We use a small number of cookies that are needed for the site to work (a session cookie and a security token for forms). Our advertising and analytics partners also set cookies, described below.
Advertising (Google AdSense)
Apti4All is free because it is supported by ads served by Google. Google and its partners use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.
You can opt out of personalised advertising in Google Ads Settings, or opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info. Learn more in how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Visitors from the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland are asked for consent before personalised ads are shown.
Analytics (Google Analytics)
We use Google Analytics to understand which pages are useful, so we can improve the material. It uses cookies and collects information such as pages visited and approximate location, without identifying you personally. You can install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
How we use and share information
We use the information above only to run the site: replying to messages, moderating comments, fixing reported errors, sending the newsletter you asked for, and keeping the site secure. We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers that help us run the site (hosting, email) and with Google as described above, or when required by law.
How long we keep it
Contact messages and error reports are kept while they are useful for answering or fixing the issue. Newsletter emails are kept until you unsubscribe. Approved comments stay with the question they discuss; you can ask us to remove yours.
Your rights
Under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, you can ask us what personal data we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, or withdraw consent you gave (for example, to the newsletter). Write to us at contact.apti4all@gmail.com and we will respond within a reasonable time.
Children
Some of our material is for school students. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children beyond what a visitor chooses to type into a form. If you are under 18, please ask a parent or guardian before submitting a form. Parents can contact us to have a child's information removed.
Changes
If we change this policy we will update this page and the date at the top.
