Privacy Policy
Last updated: 22 May 2026
Revision Base ("we", "us", or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our website and platform at revision-base.com. Please read this policy carefully. If you disagree with its terms, please discontinue use of the platform.
1. Information We Collect
Account Information: When you register, we collect your name, email address, school or institution (optional), year of study, and the exam board you are preparing for.
Usage Data: We automatically collect information about how you interact with the platform — pages visited, questions attempted, scores, time spent on topics, and features used. This data helps us personalise your revision experience.
Device & Technical Data: We collect your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, and device identifiers to ensure the platform works correctly and securely.
Communications: If you contact our support team or submit feedback, we retain those communications to resolve issues and improve our service.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Create and manage your account and track your academic progress.
- Personalise content recommendations, revision plans, and practice questions.
- Send transactional emails such as account confirmations, password resets, and study reminders (you may opt out of non-essential emails at any time).
- Improve, maintain, and develop new platform features.
- Detect, prevent, and address technical issues, fraud, or abuse.
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.
3. Sharing of Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may share data only in the following limited circumstances:
- Service Providers: Trusted third-party vendors who assist us in operating the platform (e.g., cloud hosting, email delivery, analytics) and are contractually bound to keep your data confidential.
- Teachers & Institutions: If your account is linked to a school or teacher account, your progress data may be visible to that teacher or institution administrator.
- Legal Requirements: If required by law, court order, or governmental authority, we may disclose your information to comply with applicable regulations.
- Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of our assets, user information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
4. Children's Privacy
Revision Base is designed for students of all ages, including those under 13. We take the privacy of younger users very seriously and comply with applicable children's online privacy laws.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without verifiable parental consent. If a parent or guardian believes their child has provided us with personal information without consent, please contact us at support@revision-base.com and we will promptly delete such information.
Where accounts are created for students under 13, we require a parent or guardian to provide consent during registration, and we limit data collection to what is strictly necessary to provide the educational service.
5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to maintain your session, remember your preferences, and understand how you use our platform. You can control cookie settings through your browser, though disabling certain cookies may affect platform functionality.
We use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to understand aggregate usage patterns. This data is anonymised and used only to improve the service.
6. Data Retention
We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with our services. If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymise your personal data within 30 days, unless we are required by law to retain it for a longer period.
Aggregated, anonymised usage data (with no identifying information) may be retained indefinitely for research and platform improvement purposes.
7. Security
We implement industry-standard security measures — including encryption in transit (TLS/SSL), secure password hashing, and access controls — to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of internet transmission or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Correction: Request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
- Deletion: Request that we delete your personal data (subject to legal retention requirements).
- Portability: Request your data in a machine-readable format.
- Objection: Object to certain types of processing, such as direct marketing.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at support@revision-base.com. We will respond within 30 days.
9. Third-Party Links
Our platform may contain links to third-party websites or resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any personal information.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. We will notify you of material changes by posting the new policy on this page with an updated "Last updated" date, and where appropriate, by sending you an email notification. Your continued use of the platform after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
