This policy aligns with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDPA) and the Information Technology Act, 2000 (IT Act) of the Republic of India.


2Local-First Architecture & On-Device Storage

We prioritize student privacy through a local-first design:

• No Account Required: You can browse study notes, practice questions across all five hubs, and take mock tests without ever creating an account or providing an email address.
• On-Device Storage: Your active quiz attempts, bookmarks, formula card settings, and test scores are saved directly in your personal browser's standard storage (localStorage).
• Your Learning Data Stays Private: Because test performance is stored locally on your device, we do not monitor or profile which questions you solve or what topics you study.

3Information Collected When You Sign In (Optional)

If you choose to sync your study bookmarks and scores across multiple devices, you may optionally sign in using Google Authentication. When you do so, we collect only minimal information necessary to identify your account:

• Basic Profile Details: Your name and email address provided by your Google account.
• Account Identifier: A secure identifier assigned by Google Firebase to associate your cloud-synced progress with your login.
Information Master10 Never Asks For:
We never collect phone numbers, government ID numbers (such as Aadhaar or PAN), residential addresses, school student roll numbers, or payment/banking information.

4Protection of Minor Students (DPDPA Section 9)

Many of our users are school students preparing for Class 10 board exams. In accordance with Section 9 of India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023:

No Student Behavioral Profiling:
We do not build commercial behavioral profiles or track student study habits for marketing purposes.
Parental Inquiries:
Parents or guardians may request the review or removal of any cloud-synced account created by a minor under their care by contacting privacy@master10.in.

5Non-Commercialization & Data Principles

We adhere strictly to responsible data handling:

• We Do Not Sell Personal Data: Master10 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third-party brokers, marketing companies, or coaching institutions.
• Diagnostic Server Logs: Standard web server logs record basic request information (such as browser type, time of visit, and IP address) strictly for security, system health, and defense against spam or denial-of-service attempts. These logs are routinely cleared.
