This Privacy Policy explains how Clever Prep ("Clever Prep," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, shares, and protects information when you visit our websites, use our study platforms, or work with our tutors and counselors. By using our services, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Information We Collect

Information you provide. When you create an account, request a consultation, subscribe to a plan, or contact us, we collect information such as your name, email address, phone number, the exams or programs you are preparing for, and any messages you send us.

Payment information. When you purchase a plan, payment is handled by our third-party payment processors. We receive limited transaction details (such as a confirmation and the last digits of a card) but do not store full payment-card numbers ourselves.

Information collected automatically. As you use our websites and platforms, we automatically collect usage and device data — such as pages viewed, features used, practice activity and performance, IP address, browser type, and similar technical information — through cookies and similar technologies.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to provide, operate, and maintain the services; create and manage your account; personalize study plans and recommendations; process payments and manage subscriptions; respond to your inquiries and provide support; send service-related and, where permitted, marketing communications; analyze and improve our products; and protect the security and integrity of our services and comply with legal obligations.

3. Marketing Communications

With your consent where required, we may send you emails about products, study tips, and offers. You can opt out at any time using the unsubscribe link in our emails or by contacting us. We will still send essential service messages, such as billing and account notices.

4. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only as needed to run our business: with service providers who host our platforms, process payments, send communications, and provide analytics on our behalf; with professional advisors; in connection with a business transfer such as a merger or acquisition; and where required to comply with law, enforce our terms, or protect the rights, safety, and property of Clever Prep, our users, or others.

5. Cookies and Analytics

We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember your preferences, measure how the services are used, and improve performance. You can control non-essential cookies through our cookie banner where available and through your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect how the services function.

6. Data Retention

We keep personal information for as long as your account is active and as needed to provide the services, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete or anonymize it.

7. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect your information against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, update, delete, or receive a copy of your personal information, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent. To exercise these rights, contact us at info@clever-prep.com; we will respond as required by applicable law and will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.

9. Children’s Privacy

Our services are intended for users who are at least 16 years old and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

10. International Users

Clever Prep is based in the United States, and your information may be processed and stored in the United States or other countries whose data-protection laws may differ from your own. By using the services, you understand that your information may be transferred to and processed in those locations.

11. Third-Party Links

Our websites and platforms may contain links to third-party sites and services that we do not control. This Policy does not apply to those third parties, and we encourage you to review their privacy practices.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the "last updated" date above and, where appropriate, provide additional notice. Your continued use of the services after the changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Policy.

13. Contact Us
