Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

IteraMERN is an educational platform within the IteraTrail ecosystem, designed to facilitate structured, roadmap-driven learning for modern full-stack development. We are committed to transparency and respect for your privacy as you engage with our learning tools.

2. Data Collection and Usage

IteraMERN is designed to offer a modern, efficient learning experience for developers. Our data handling practices are built on transparency and user choice:

• Local Storage: Core features, such as lesson completion states, quiz results, and subscription indicators, are stored locally on your device using local storage engines (SharedPreferences / Hive databases) to ensure a smooth, offline-first experience.
• Advertising (Free Tier): To keep our learning tracks free, the application displays advertisements powered by Google AdMob. Google AdMob may collect and process device identifiers, IP addresses, and ad performance metrics to serve relevant ads. You can manage ad personalization within your device or Google settings.
• Subscriptions (Premium Tier): When purchasing IteraMERN Premium (Monthly or Yearly), the payment is processed entirely and securely through Google Play Billing (or the Apple App Store, depending on your device). We do not collect or store financial details or credit card information. We only store subscription status variables locally to grant access to premium features.
• Personal Information: We do not collect personally identifiable information unless voluntarily provided when seeking support or submitting direct feedback.

3. External Links and Resources

To provide comprehensive full-stack education, IteraMERN frequently references external official documentation and resources (e.g., MDN Web Docs, React Docs, Node.js documentation). When you navigate to these external sites:

• These links are provided for educational purposes and are user-initiated.
• Third-party services or external educational resources may operate under their own independent privacy policies.
• We encourage you to review their respective privacy policies upon visiting.

4. Feedback and Support Handling

When you use our support channels or submit bug reports, any information you provide is used solely to resolve the issue at hand. We aim to respond to support requests within a reasonable timeframe. This correspondence is kept confidential and is managed securely.

5. Third-Party Services

We work with trusted third-party service providers (such as Google Play Console, Google AdMob, and App Store Billing) to deliver monetization, ads, and app store compliance features. All integrations adhere to strict Play Store Data Safety guidelines, and we do not engage in deceptive or aggressive tracking. Users can upgrade to the Premium Tier at any time to disable AdMob ad delivery and data collection completely.

6. Policy Updates

As the IteraMERN ecosystem grows (including future integrations like IteraJS or other modules), this policy may be updated. Changes will be reflected on this page with an updated effective date. This page is publicly accessible and non-editable to ensure reliable access for all users and app stores.
