Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how NSCT Prep("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit https://www.nsctprep.dev(the "Site"). By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Information We Collect

NSCT Prep is designed to be used without creating an account. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information (PII) such as your name, email address, or phone number unless you voluntarily provide it (for example, by contacting us).

However, like most websites, we automatically receive certain non-personal information when you visit, including:

• Browser type and version
• Operating system
• Approximate location (country / city) derived from IP address
• Pages visited, time spent, referring URL
• Device type (desktop, tablet, mobile)

The Site is hosted on Vercel, which keeps standard server logs (including IP address and request details) for security and reliability. These logs are handled under Vercel's privacy policy.

2. Local Storage

NSCT Prep uses your browser's localStorage to save your preferences (such as theme, color palette, and quiz settings) and your quiz progress. This data stays on your device and is never transmitted to our servers. You can clear it at any time by clearing your browser data.

3. Cookies and Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services that may set cookies or use similar technologies:

Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on content pages. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies, including the DoubleClick cookie, enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to the Site and/or other sites on the Internet. Other third-party vendors and ad networks may also serve ads and use cookies on the Site.

To learn how Google uses information from sites that use its services, see How Google uses data when you use our partners' sites or apps.

You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info. Users in the EU can also use www.youronlinechoices.eu.

Consent for users in the EEA, UK and Switzerland

If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you are asked for consent through a Google-certified consent message before personalized ads or advertising cookies are used. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time through the privacy and cookie settings link shown by that message. If you do not consent, you may still see non-personalized ads.

Analytics

The Site does not currently use Google Analytics or any other analytics tracking script. If we add one in the future, we will update this policy before doing so.

4. How We Use Information

The information collected is used to:

• Operate, maintain, and improve the Site
• Understand how users interact with content so we can make it better
• Display relevant advertisements through Google AdSense
• Detect and prevent abuse, spam, or technical issues
• Comply with legal obligations

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent personal information to third parties. The only entities that receive data are the service providers listed above (Google AdSense and our hosting provider, Vercel), which operate under their own privacy policies.

6. Children's Privacy

NSCT Prep is intended for users aged 13 and above (typically university-level students in Pakistan). We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with information, please contact us so we can remove it.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

• Request access to information we hold about you
• Request correction or deletion of that information
• Object to processing or request restriction
• Withdraw consent for personalized advertising at any time

To exercise these rights, email contact@abdullahawais.com or use the Contact page.

8. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the limited information we handle. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. External Links

The Site may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of those sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of every site you visit.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of the Site after any modifications constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
