This Privacy Policy explains how Ruchi Mali ("I", "me") collects, uses and protects information when you use this website or enquire about tutoring services.

Information I Collect

When you contact me or book a lesson, I may collect:

• Your name and, where relevant, your parent/guardian's name
• Email address, phone number and/or WhatsApp number
• Student's grade/year and board (e.g. ICSE, CBSE, university)
• Subjects of interest and any details you share in your message
• Scheduling and payment details needed to arrange and confirm lessons

How Information Is Used

Information is used only to:

• Respond to enquiries and schedule lessons
• Communicate about lessons, materials and progress
• Process payments via the chosen external payment provider
• Improve the quality and relevance of lessons

Third-Party Tools

Lessons and communication rely on third-party platforms such as Google Meet, Google Classroom, WhatsApp, Botim and payment processors. These providers have their own privacy policies governing how they handle your data.

Data Sharing

Personal information is not sold or shared with third parties for marketing purposes. Information is only shared with parents/guardians of a student where appropriate, or where required by law.

Data Retention

Information is kept only for as long as necessary to provide tutoring services and respond to enquiries, unless a longer retention period is required for legal or record-keeping purposes.
