Privacy Policy

1. Who this policy covers

This policy explains how CRECT Education (crect.education), operated by Basil Varghese trading as "Crect", GSTIN 32AHOPV0807H1ZA, registered at 331, Parel, Thavalappara, Manjapra P.O., Ernakulam District, Kerala – 683581, India, collects and uses information from visitors.

2. Information we collect

We collect only what we need to run the site:

• Account information — if you sign in, we store your email address and basic profile info via our authentication provider (Supabase).
• Contact form submissions — your name, email, and message when you use the Contact page.
• Payment-related information — if you use the "Support my work" option, payment is handled entirely by Razorpay. We never see or store your card, UPI, or bank account details. We only receive confirmation that a payment succeeded, its amount, and a transaction reference.
• Basic usage data — standard technical information (like pages visited) that helps us keep the site working correctly.

3. How we use it

To provide the courses and site features, respond to contact requests, process voluntary support payments, and keep the service secure and working.

4. Who we share it with

We don't sell your data. We share the minimum necessary information with the service providers that run the site on our behalf:

• Supabase — hosts our database and handles account authentication.
• Razorpay — processes "Support my work" payments and handles all payment details directly, under its own privacy and security standards.
• YouTube/Google — hosts embedded course videos; viewing an embedded video is subject to YouTube's own privacy policy.

5. Children's privacy

Our courses are designed for academic kids, but we intend accounts and any payment to be set up by a parent or guardian. We collect the minimum information necessary and don't knowingly collect more than that from children directly.

6. Data security & retention

We keep account and contact data only as long as needed to provide the service or as required by law, and rely on our providers' security practices (including Supabase and Razorpay) to protect it in transit and at rest.

7. Your rights

You can ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you by reaching out via the contact page.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the site evolves. We'll update the "last updated" date above when we do.
