Privacy Policy · गोपनीयता धोरण
Last updated: 30 July 2026 · Effective for app version 1.0+
📌 थोडक्यात (मराठी सारांश)
आम्ही फक्त अॅप चालवण्यासाठी लागणारी माहिती घेतो — फोन नंबर/ई-मेल (OTP लॉगिनसाठी), नाव, जिल्हा, लिंग, आणि तुमचे टेस्ट स्कोअर. तुमची माहिती कधीही विकली जात नाही, जाहिरातींसाठी वापरली जात नाही. खाते हटवले की सर्व माहिती कायमची हटते. प्रश्नांसाठी: support@jijaee.in
