Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how JeePredictor (jeepredictor.online), operated by Ruvik ("we," "us," or "our"), collects, uses, discloses, and protects information when you visit our website or use our tools. By using JeePredictor, you acknowledge this Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

Who we are

JeePredictor provides free educational tools for JEE Main, JEE Advanced, and JoSAA-related rank and college prediction. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the National Testing Agency (NTA), JoSAA, CSAB, or any government examination or counselling authority.

Information we do not collect from predictors

Our core prediction engines (rank predictors, percentile calculators, college finders, and similar tools) are designed to run in your browser. Marks, ranks, categories, home-state selections, and other inputs you enter for those calculations are processed locally on your device and are not transmitted to our servers for the purpose of performing those predictions. We do not require an account to use those tools.

Because we do not receive your exam inputs from those client-side tools, we cannot recover, export, or delete prediction inputs on your behalf. Clearing your browser data will remove locally stored information on your device.

Information we may collect automatically

When you visit JeePredictor, we and our service providers may automatically collect certain technical and usage information, such as: IP address (which may be used to infer approximate location), browser type and version, device type, operating system, referring/exit pages, pages viewed, links clicked, date and time of access, and general interaction patterns. This helps us operate, secure, and improve the website.

We use Google Analytics (measurement ID G-1N0DZ2NZP6) to understand aggregated traffic and product usage. Google's processing is subject to Google's Privacy Policy. You can learn about Google Analytics opt-out options through Google's documentation and browser add-ons.

Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies where needed to operate the site, remember preferences, measure performance, and support analytics or advertising. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling cookies may affect some site functionality.

Third-party advertisers or analytics partners may set their own cookies or identifiers. Their use of data is governed by their respective policies. Where we display third-party ads (for example, through Google AdSense or similar programs), those partners may use cookies to serve and measure ads in accordance with their programs and your ad settings.

Information you choose to provide

If you contact us (for example, via our contact form or email at jeepredictor.online@gmail.com), we receive the information you submit, such as your name, email address, subject line, and message content. We use that information only to respond, provide support, and improve our services.

How we use information

We use information we collect to: provide and maintain JeePredictor; understand how tools are used; diagnose errors and abuse; improve accuracy, content, and user experience; communicate with you when you reach out; comply with law; and protect our rights, users, and the public.

Legal bases (where applicable)

Depending on your location, we process personal information based on one or more of: your consent; performance of a contract or steps at your request; our legitimate interests in operating and improving a free educational product (balanced against your rights); and compliance with legal obligations. In India, we aim to handle personal data in line with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDPA) and other applicable laws as they come into force and apply to us.

Sharing and service providers

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with vendors who help us host the site, deliver analytics, fight fraud, or provide email or infrastructure services, subject to contractual obligations to protect data and use it only for our instructions. We may also disclose information if required by law, court order, or governmental request, or when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect rights, safety, or investigate fraud or security issues.

Data retention

We retain information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this Policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law. Analytics data is typically retained in aggregated form according to our analytics provider's settings. Contact messages are kept as long as needed to resolve your inquiry and for reasonable record-keeping.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children

JeePredictor is intended for students and others interested in JEE and related admissions. If you are under 18, use the site with a parent or guardian's knowledge. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without appropriate consent where required. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps.

Your rights and choices

Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain processing of your personal information, or to withdraw consent where processing is consent-based. To exercise these rights, email jeepredictor.online@gmail.com. We may need to verify your request. You may also lodge a complaint with a relevant data protection authority in your jurisdiction.

International users

JeePredictor is operated from India and may be accessed globally. If you access the site from outside India, your information may be processed in India or other countries where our providers operate, which may have different data protection laws than your country.

Third-party links

Our site may link to official portals (such as NTA or JoSAA), social networks, or other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties. Review their policies before providing information to them.

Changes to this Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will change when we do. Material changes may be highlighted on the site. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Policy.
