Privacy Policy for Bihar Study Sync
Introduction: Bihar Study Sync is an educational platform providing
study
materials, quizzes, MCQ practice sets, job information, university updates, government schemes, and
scholarship updates to a general audience. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting
your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it,
and the choices you have regarding your information. Because our site is freely accessible without
user registration or login, we do not collect any login credentials or account information. By using
our website, you consent to the data practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree
with these practices, please do not use our site.
Information Collection
We collect Personal Data only when you voluntarily provide it through our
contact, feedback, or report forms. Specifically:
- Name and Email Address: We collect your name and email when you submit any form on our
site (e.g. to ask questions, give feedback, or report issues). This information is provided
voluntarily, and by submitting it you consent to our use of it for the purposes described
herein. We do not collect any other personal details (such as phone number or address) unless
you explicitly provide them.
- No Accounts or Logins: Our website does not use member accounts or login systems. You are
free to browse all content without creating an account, and we do not collect usernames,
passwords, or any authentication data.
- Voluntary Submission: Any personal information you share is only collected because you
chose to provide it. As one privacy policy notes, “Your decision to disclose your Personal
Information is entirely voluntary,” and this action provides us with consent to use that
information for the stated purposes.
Non-Personal Data
In addition to personal information, we also collect Non-Personal Data that
does not directly identify an individual. This includes technical and aggregated information about
how the site is used. For example:
- Usage Data:Information such as pages you visit, the time and duration of your visits,
quiz completion rates, and other usage statistics.
- Technical Data:Information about your device and connection, such as IP address, browser
type and version, operating system, screen resolution, and similar data.
These non-personal data help us understand and improve our services. In general terms,
“Non-Personal Data” is data that does not contain any information that can be used to identify a
person. We may use this anonymous, aggregated data to analyze trends and improve the website,
and we may share non-personal, aggregated statistics with others for research or marketing
purposes.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience and
gather information about site usage. A cookie is a small file placed on your device by a web server
to store data such as user preferences or session informationprivacypolicytemplate.net. Our cookies
may include:
- Session Cookies: Temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser, used to keep
track of your activity during a visit (e.g. keeping you logged in to a session).
- Persistent Cookies: Cookies that remain on your device for a longer period (e.g. to save
your language or display preferences).
These technologies help us remember your preferences and understand how you interact with the
site.
We also use tracking tools (such as Google Analytics) to collect usage
analytics. For example, Google Analytics stores cookies on your device to keep track of how you use
the site. These cookies help us compile aggregate statistics (pages visited, time on site, etc.) so
we can improve our educational content and site functionality. You can refuse or delete cookies via
your browser settings, but doing so may prevent certain features from working properly.
Use of Collected Information
The information we collect is used for the following purposes:

feedback or reports. For example, if you contact us via the contact form, we will use your email
to reply to your message.
- Providing Requested Services: Any personal data provided is used to fulfill the service
you requested, such as sending informational resources, newsletters, or updates if you opted in
for them.
- Improving Our Content and Services: Non-personal usage data and analytics are used to
improve our website, personalize content, and develop new features. As noted by example
policies, sites use personal information to “improve your browsing experience by personalizing
the website” and to “evaluate and improve our programming and services”. We analyze aggregated
data to understand what topics interest our users most and to enhance the educational materials
we offer.

prevent fraud or abuse of our site, and to enforce our terms of service.

In all cases, we use your information only for legitimate business purposes and
in accordance with applicable laws.
Data Security
We take the security of your personal information seriously. We implement
industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including encryption, secure server
facilities, and restricted access controls. For example, we use secure HTTPS connections for all
data transmission. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot
guarantee absolute protection of information. As one sample privacy notice acknowledges, we use
“commercially acceptable means” to safeguard data, but we cannot warrant complete security. If you
have any questions about our security practices, please contact us (see below).
Sharing of Information
We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information to third parties. Your
personal data (name and email) will only be shared in the limited ways described below:
- Service Providers: We employ trusted third-party providers to assist in operating our
site and services (e.g. web hosting, technical support, email services, and analytics). These
providers may have access to personal data as needed to perform their functions on our behalf.
However, they are obligated to keep your information confidential and may use it only to deliver
the services we have contracted for.
- Legal Compliance: We may disclose personal information if required by law or in response
to valid legal processes, such as a subpoena, court order, or government request. We may also
disclose information if we believe it is necessary to protect our rights or the safety of
others.
- User Consent: We may share your personal information with other parties if you expressly
consent to such sharing.
- Aggregated/Anonymized Sharing: We may share aggregated (non-personal) data about site
