Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information Examva collects when you use our illustrated GCSE revision notes, why we collect it, and the choices you have. We keep it short and plain.

Who we are

Examva is operated by Examva Technologies (Private) Limited. This policy applies to examva.com and the Examva product.

What we collect

• Account details - your name (if you give one) and email address, so you can sign in and we can reach you.
• Study preferences - the subjects and tier (Higher or Foundation) you choose, so your notes match your course.
• Learning activity- which pages you’ve read, bookmarked or added a note to, plus self-assessment attempts and scores when that feature is available, so we can show your progress and save your work.
• Payment information - when you buy Pro, Paddle processes the checkout and payment information needed to complete the transaction under Paddle’s own Privacy Notice. Examva does not receive or store your full card details; we receive order and payment-status information needed to activate access and provide support.
• Basic technical data - information your browser sends (such as device and general location) needed to run the site securely and keep your account safe.

Private Mum/Dad payment links

A learner can create one private, expiring payment link for Mum/Dad. The link contains a signed security credential in its URL fragment. The browser removes that credential from the visible address after opening it and keeps it only in that tab’s session storage where available. We process the handoff identifier, expiry, selected plan and course, offer, terms version, payment status and Paddle transaction reference to protect the link and complete the order.

We do not ask the learner for Mum/Dad’s email address or phone number. The payment page does not disclose the learner’s name, login, answers, scores, weak topics or study activity. Product and campaign events never include the private credential, full payment link, full card details or contact details. Paddle processes the payer’s checkout information under its own Privacy Notice.

Signing in with Google or Apple

If you choose Google or Apple to create or access your account, that provider authenticates you and gives Examva a provider-specific account identifier and, when available, a verified email address. The provider may also give us your name when you first create the account. Apple lets you use a private relay email address instead of sharing your usual address. We use this information only to create, link, secure and sign you in to your Examva account; we do not receive your Google or Apple password. You can read Google’s Privacy Policy and Apple’s Privacy Policy.

How we use it

• To give you access to your notes and save your progress.
• To process your Pro purchase and provide support.
• To keep your account and our service secure.
• To improve the notes and the product based on how they’re used.

We do not sell your personal information, and product analytics and advertising measurement stay off unless you separately choose to allow the relevant purpose. Cookie-free Vercel Web Analytics provides aggregate statistics for approved public pages by default and has a persistent opt-out.

Sharing

We share information only with the service providers that help us run Examva - for example our hosting, database and payment providers - and only as far as they need it to do their job. We may also disclose information if the law requires it.

Keeping your information

We keep your account and learning data while your account is active. You can ask us to delete your account at any time, after which we remove your personal data except anything we’re legally required to keep (such as payment records).

Your rights

You can ask to access, correct or delete the personal information we hold about you, or to receive a copy of it. To make a request, email us at support@examva.com.

Cookies

We use a small number of essential cookies to keep you signed in and to keep the site secure. Cookie-free Vercel Web Analytics is on by default for approved public pages and can be switched off using the persistent Privacy control. Product analytics and campaign measurement are separate and stay off until you explicitly enable each one. Google Analytics is disabled and does not load. You can review the optional choices at any time here: Manage privacy choices.

Aggregate public-page analytics

We use Vercel Web Analytics to understand aggregate page views, countries and referrers on a reviewed list of public information and marketing pages. It is enabled by default on those pages. It is not used on billing, checkout, login, authenticated account, learning or notes pages. URL query strings and fragments are removed before an approved page view is sent.

Vercel Web Analytics is cookie-free and is used for anonymous, aggregate traffic statistics rather than an Examva advertising profile. We do not send saved notes, answers, grades, names, email addresses, payment details or Examva account identifiers in these events. Use the small, persistent Privacy control on an eligible public page to switch these statistics off or on. A change applies immediately to future page views and an opt-out is saved in this browser where storage is available. If storage is blocked, the choice still applies in the current tab but may need to be repeated on a later visit.

Google Analytics

Google Analytics is disabled across Examva and its tag does not load. The aggregate public-page measurement described above is provided by Vercel Web Analytics, not Google Analytics.

Optional product analytics

If you separately enable Product analytics in the detailed Privacy choices, we may use first-party SEO conversion measurement and, when configured, Amplitude to understand product journeys, feature use and reliability. First-party SEO measurement may store an opaque visitor ID and limited conversion attribution in this browser while this choice remains valid; withdrawing product analytics clears that browser state. Campaign tags are used only if you have separately allowed campaign measurement.

Product events may include page or feature names, opaque visitor, device, session, attempt or question identifiers, score percentages, paid-access status, and limited purchase metadata such as plan, price, currency, payment method and provider. They exclude raw answers, saved-note content, names, email addresses and full card or bank credentials. Product analytics remains off unless you separately enable it. Changing anonymous Vercel traffic statistics does not enable product analytics, and enabling product analytics does not enable Google Analytics.
