Privacy Policy

GoTutify ("we", "our", "us") is committed to protecting the privacy of everyone who visits our website and uses our services. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your personal information when you use gotutify.com, including the GoTutify Blog (news.gotutify.com).

We collect only what is necessary to operate our platform and provide you with the best experience:

• Account Information: Name, email address, phone number, and city when you register.
• Profile Data: Subjects, qualifications, availability (for tutors), and academic level (for students).
• Usage Data: Pages visited, time spent, links clicked, and browser/device type.
• Communication: Messages sent through our contact form or in-platform messaging.
• Financial Data: We do not store credit card numbers. Payments are processed by third-party providers.
• Cookies & Local Storage: Theme preferences, session tokens, and analytics identifiers.

• To match students with the right tutors based on subjects, location, and preferences.
• To send you account notifications, booking confirmations, and important updates.
• To improve our platform through aggregate analytics (no personally identifiable data is shared).
• To prevent fraud, abuse, and maintain platform safety.
• To comply with applicable laws in Pakistan and internationally.

We use the following types of cookies:

• Essential Cookies: Required for the site to function (session management, security tokens).
• Preference Cookies: Remember your theme choice (dark/light mode) and language.
• Analytics Cookies: Anonymous page-view tracking to understand which content helps users most. No personal data is tied to these.

You can disable non-essential cookies in your browser settings at any time without losing core functionality.

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information. We may share data only in these limited situations:

• Service Providers: Trusted vendors who help us operate (e.g., email delivery, hosting). They are bound by confidentiality agreements.
• Legal Requirements: If required by law, court order, or government authority in Pakistan.
• Safety: To protect the rights, property, or safety of GoTutify, our users, or the public.

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data:

• HTTPS encryption across all pages.
• Passwords are hashed using bcrypt — we never store plain-text passwords.
• Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments.
• Access controls ensuring only authorized team members handle user data.

No system is 100% secure. If you suspect unauthorized access, please contact us immediately.

• Access: Request a copy of the data we hold about you.
• Correction: Update inaccurate or incomplete data at any time from your account settings.
• Deletion: Request deletion of your account and associated personal data.
• Opt-out: Unsubscribe from marketing emails using the link in any email we send.
• Data Portability: Receive your data in a machine-readable format upon request.

To exercise any of these rights, contact our support team.

GoTutify's platform is designed for students of all ages, but we comply with children's privacy laws:

• We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13 without verifiable parental consent.
• Parents or guardians may request deletion of their child's data by contacting us.
• Student accounts for minors should be created and supervised by a parent or guardian.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do:

• The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will change.
• For significant changes, we will notify registered users via email.
• Continued use of GoTutify after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
