Privacy Policy

This policy explains how jkexam ("we", "us") handles your personal information when you use jkexam.com. We keep it to what the service needs, and we do not sell your information.

From your Google account, when you sign in:

• your name,
• your email address,
• your profile picture, if you have one.

From your use of jkexam:

• the exam you are preparing for, which you choose on your dashboard;
• your mock and contest attempts: the papers you were given, your answers, scores, and the times you started and submitted;
• contest details such as registration, rank, and warnings when you leave the test window;
• payment records for contest entry: the order and payment IDs, the amount and the status. Card, UPI and bank details go to Razorpay and are never seen or stored by us;
• technical data needed to run and protect the service, such as your IP address, browser type and request logs.

We do not ask for your password, because sign-in is through Google. Settings may show a phone number field. We store a phone number only if you give one.

• to sign you in and keep your account secure;
• to build your mock papers and avoid repeating questions you have finished;
• to score your tests, show your history and progress, and run contest leaderboards;
• to take and confirm contest payments;
• to email you about contests you registered for, such as a reminder before the start;
• to prevent cheating, misuse and fraud, and to fix problems;
• to show ads that keep the free practice mocks free.

jkexam uses a small number of cookies and browser storage.

Essential, set by us:

• access_token and refresh_token keep you signed in;
• csrf_token protects your requests from forgery;
• a short-lived cookie during Google sign-in, which is removed after you finish.

Stored in your browser by jkexam:

• your mock paper and answers while you take a test, so a reload does not lose your work (removed when the test is saved);
• your basic profile for a quick page load, and small choices such as whether the sidebar is open or your theme.

Set by Google when ads are shown: Google AdSense may use cookies to show and measure ads. You can manage ad personalisation in your Google account settings. You can also clear or block cookies in your browser, but sign-in will not work without the essential ones.

We share information only with services that help us run jkexam, and only what they need:

• Google: sign-in, and ads through AdSense;
• Razorpay: contest payments;
• Vercel: hosting of the website and the API, and anonymous visit statistics and page-speed measurements (page views, country, browser and device type) without advertising cookies;
• Supabase: our database, where accounts, papers and results are stored;
• Upstash: short-lived data such as sessions and temporary storage;
• Gmail (Google): contest reminder emails.

Your name can appear on contest leaderboards to other participants. We may also share information if the law requires it, or to protect the rights and safety of users and of jkexam.

We keep your account and your results while your account is open, so you can see your history. Payment records are kept as long as accounting and the law require. Sessions expire automatically, and the copy of a mock that your browser holds is removed once it is saved.

• See and correct: your name, email and photo come from your Google account. Update them there, and sign in again to refresh them.
• Delete: write to us to ask us to close your account. Your name, email, photo and phone number are erased and the account is closed. Records such as scores may stay in our systems without being linked to your identity, and payment records may be kept where the law requires.
• Ask: write to us to ask what we hold about you, to correct it, or to ask us to delete it.
• Stop ads tracking: manage ad personalisation in your Google account.

We use secure connections, protect sign-in with secure cookies, limit who can reach the data, and keep payment details with Razorpay. No system is perfectly secure, so we cannot promise absolute security. Please tell us at once if you think your account has been misused.

jkexam is for exam aspirants. If you are under 18, please use it with a parent or guardian's knowledge. If you believe a child has given us information without that, write to us and we will remove it.

We may update this policy as jkexam changes. The date at the top shows the latest version. For a major change we will say so on the site.
