We collect as little as we can. You can practise, read and take tests without an account. If you create one, we store your name, email and learning progress so it follows you to every device. We never sell your data, and you can ask us to delete it at any time.
Who we are
LearnFrenzy (learnfrenzy.com) is a free learning website for aptitude, reasoning, programming, Salesforce, interview preparation and future skills. When this policy says "we" or "us", it means the LearnFrenzy team. You can reach us any time through the contact page.
What we collect
When you simply browse
- Anonymous usage counts. We count things like page views, lessons opened and Skill Checks started, so we know which content helps people. This uses a random ID stored in a first-party cookie (
lf_aid). It is not linked to your name or email, and known bots are ignored. - Technical data your browser sends — such as browser type and an IP address — which our server needs to deliver the page. We keep IP addresses only as one-way hashes, for example to stop someone sending hundreds of messages a minute.
- Your preferences, such as light or dark mode and collapsed menus. These stay in your browser's local storage and never reach our server.
When you create an account
- Your name, email address and password. The password is stored only as a secure hash — nobody at LearnFrenzy can read it.
- If you sign in with Google: your Google account ID, name, email and profile picture, as shared by Google with your permission.
- Your learning progress: completed lessons and projects, Skill Check results, roadmap steps and badges (your Skill Passport).
- Notifications we show you inside your account, such as a welcome message or a new article alert.
When you contact us, comment or subscribe
- Contact form and team messages: your name, email, subject and message.
- Blog comments: your name, email and comment. Your email is never shown publicly, and comments appear only after we review them.
- Blog subscription: your email address, the topics you chose, and when you confirmed. We send emails only after you confirm your address.

How we use your information
- To run the website and your account, and to save your progress across devices.
- To answer your messages and moderate comments.
- To email you about new articles — only if you subscribed and confirmed.
- To improve our content, using anonymous counts and analytics.
- To keep the site safe: rate limits, spam checks and abuse prevention.
Who we share it with
We do not sell or rent your personal data. We share it only with services that help us run LearnFrenzy — our hosting provider, our email delivery service, and Google (for Google sign-in, Analytics and AdSense, as described above) — and only as much as each one needs. We may also disclose information if the law requires it.
How long we keep it
- Account data and learning progress: until you delete your account.
- Contact messages: up to 2 years, then deleted.
- Subscribers: until you unsubscribe. After unsubscribing we keep only your email address, marked "unsubscribed", so we never email you again by mistake.
- Anonymous usage counts: kept in summary form; they cannot identify you.
Your rights and choices
Wherever you live, you can ask us to:
- show you the personal data we hold about you;
- correct it if it is wrong;
- delete your account and personal data;
- stop emails — every email has a one-click unsubscribe link.
Send your request through the contact page from the email address linked to your account. We reply within 30 days. These rights follow India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, and the EU GDPR for visitors from Europe.
Security
Passwords are hashed, reset links and email tokens are stored only as hashes and expire, all forms are protected against forgery, and the site runs over HTTPS. No system is perfectly secure, so please use a password you do not use anywhere else.
Children
LearnFrenzy is designed for students preparing for exams and careers. If you are under 13, please use LearnFrenzy with a parent or teacher and do not create an account without their permission. If you believe a child has given us personal data without consent, contact us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
If we change how we handle your data, we will update this page and the "Last updated" date at the top. For important changes we will also tell signed-in students with a notification.
Write to us through the contact page — a real person on the LearnFrenzy team will reply.
