This site is operated by Focus 4D Career Education Private Limited ("FACE Prep", "we", "us", "our"), the company behind faceprep.in. This notice explains what data we collect when you visit the site or join our newsletter, how we use it, and the rights you have over it.
1. What we collect
When you visit the site: standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages viewed, referring URL, timestamp). We also use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use the site (which articles are read, how long visitors stay, what device they use).
When you subscribe to the newsletter or download a lead magnet: the email address you submit, and the name if you choose to provide it. We may also record which lead magnet or page you signed up from so we can send relevant follow-up.
When you contact us by email: whatever you choose to put in your message.
We do not collect sensitive personal data (financial, health, biometric, or political affiliation) on this site. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18.
2. How we use it
- To send you the newsletter and the lead magnets you requested.
- To send you occasional updates about new articles or programmes (TinkerLLM, upcoming certifications). You can opt out at any time.
- To understand which content is useful so we can publish more like it.
- To respond to your queries when you email us.
We do not sell your data. We do not share it with advertisers. We do not use it to retarget you on social media without explicit consent.
3. Who else sees your data
We use a small number of trusted third-party service providers to operate the site. Each only sees the data they need to do their job:
- Resend sends our newsletter and transactional emails. Resend's privacy practices are at resend.com/legal/privacy-policy.
- Google Analytics 4 measures site traffic anonymously (IP addresses are truncated). Google's privacy practices are at policies.google.com/privacy.
- Cloudflare hosts the site and provides security/CDN. Cloudflare's privacy practices are at cloudflare.com/privacypolicy.
4. Cookies
We use a small number of first-party cookies for site functionality and analytics. We do not use third-party advertising cookies. Your browser settings allow you to refuse cookies; the site continues to work without them, just with less personalisation.
5. How long we keep your data
We keep your data as long as it's needed for the purposes described in this notice and as long as you remain subscribed. If you unsubscribe, we keep a record of the unsubscription itself (so we don't accidentally re-add you) and may keep other limited operational records for as long as needed for our legitimate business purposes. You can ask us to delete your data at any time. See Section 6 below.
6. Your rights
Under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (and equivalent laws like GDPR for EU residents), you have the right to:
- Ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Ask us to correct or update it.
- Ask us to delete it.
- Withdraw consent for newsletter or marketing communications.
- Lodge a complaint with the Data Protection Board of India.
To exercise any of these rights, email us at [email protected]. We respond within 30 days.
7. Security
We use standard industry safeguards: HTTPS across the site, encrypted data-in-transit, restricted-access infrastructure. No system is perfect; if you ever notice anything that looks like a leak or vulnerability, please email us at [email protected] and we'll act quickly.
8. Changes to this notice
If we materially change how we handle your data, we'll update the "Last reviewed" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, email subscribers about the change. Continued use of the site after that constitutes acceptance.
