1. Introduction
Welcome to QuizPlant. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our educational platform.
This policy describes the processing required to provide QuizPlant and the optional processing that occurs only after you make a consent choice.

4. AI and Third-Party Services
4.1 AI Processing
QuizPlant uses artificial intelligence services, including OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google AI, to solve questions, interpret images, and generate quizzes and flashcards.
When you explicitly request an AI document feature, the selected excerpt, selected page text, or captured document area needed for that request may be transmitted to the configured third-party AI provider under data protection agreements. Opening a document, highlighting text, writing a note, or manually saving a flashcard does not by itself start an AI request.
4.2 Third-Party Services
- Supabase for secure user authentication
- Cloudflare R2 for file storage
- MongoDB for data storage
- OneSignal for push notifications
- Google Analytics for understanding website traffic and product usage under your analytics consent choice
- PostHog Cloud EU for optional, account-unlinked product analytics in the mobile application
- Sentry in its Germany region for optional crash and technical error reporting in the mobile application
5. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell your personal information. We may share your data in the following circumstances:
- With your consent
- With trusted service providers who help operate the platform
- When required by law, court order, or government request
- During mergers, acquisitions, or asset transfers
6. Data Retention
We retain your information for as long as necessary to provide the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.
When you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your personal information within a reasonable timeframe unless retention is legally required.

8. Data Security
We implement technical and organizational measures to protect your data, including encryption, secure authentication, security reviews, access controls, and secure cloud infrastructure.
No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Children's Privacy
QuizPlant is not intended for users under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Users between 13 and 18 should have parental consent before using the service.
10. International Data Transfers
Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your country of residence. We use appropriate safeguards such as contractual protections where required.
11. Cookies and Website Analytics
Essential cookies support authentication, security, and your saved preferences. They remain available because the service cannot operate correctly without them.
Google Analytics consent starts as denied. With Advanced Consent Mode, Google tags may send limited cookieless measurement signals while consent is denied, but Analytics cookies and browser identifiers are not stored or read. If you accept analytics, Google Analytics may set first-party cookies such as _ga to distinguish visits and measure product usage.
We do not send question text, uploaded images, email addresses, account identifiers, or other study content to Google Analytics. You can accept, reject, or change your analytics choice at any time through Cookie Preferences in the website footer.
- Maintain your session and keep you logged in
- Remember your preferences and settings
- Analyze how you use the service
- Improve user experience
12. Mobile Product Analytics and Error Reporting
12.1 Product Analytics (PostHog)
If you consent to Product Analytics in the QuizPlant mobile application, we use PostHog Cloud EU, hosted in Frankfurt, Germany, to understand whether selected study features are useful and reliable.
- Events may include opening the app; starting, completing, or retaking a quiz; and starting or completing a flashcard review
- Event properties are limited to operational measurements such as question or card counts and quiz score percentages
- PostHog may process a pseudonymous SDK identifier and technical context such as app version, device type, and operating system version
- We do not identify you to PostHog or send your QuizPlant account identity
12.2 Error Reports (Sentry)
If you consent to Error Reports in the QuizPlant mobile application, we use Sentry in its Germany region to receive crash reports and technical error details so we can diagnose stability problems.
- Reports may contain crash stack traces, app version, device model, operating system version, and related technical diagnostics
- Our Sentry configuration disables performance tracing, profiling, screenshots, view hierarchy attachments, session replay, and default personally identifiable information
- We do not assign your QuizPlant account identity or email address to Sentry reports
12.3 Your Consent Choices
Product Analytics and Error Reports are optional and controlled independently. Neither service is initialized before you save a choice in the mobile application.
You can accept both, continue without sharing, or manage each preference separately. You can change either choice at any time from Privacy & Data in the application settings. Disabling a choice stops future collection for that service and does not limit the core functionality of QuizPlant.
Your mobile consent choices are stored locally on your device, remain in place when you sign out, and may be reset if you uninstall the application. We retain analytics and diagnostic data only for configured service-retention periods and as otherwise necessary for the purposes described in this policy.
Question text, answers, uploaded images, email addresses, account identifiers, and other study content are not sent to PostHog or Sentry through these mobile analytics and error-reporting integrations.
13. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Material changes may be communicated through this page, updated dates, or email notices.
14. Contact Us
If you have questions or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or our data practices, please contact us through the support channels provided in the application.
15. California Privacy Rights (CCPA)
If you are a California resident, you may have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, including rights to know, access, and request information related to collected personal data. We do not sell personal information.
16. GDPR Compliance (European Users)
If you are in the European Economic Area, you may have rights under the GDPR, including access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, objection, and rights related to automated decision-making.
Our legal bases for processing include performance of a contract, your consent where applicable, legitimate interests, and legal obligations.
We rely on your consent for optional mobile Product Analytics and Error Reports. Refusing or withdrawing that consent does not affect your access to QuizPlant’s core functionality.
