Privacy Policy.

Last updated: October 28, 2026

01Information We Collect

We collect only what StudMac needs to work for you:

Account details: your name, email address, college, department, level and curriculum. Your password is stored encrypted, and we can never see it.
Study activity: the materials you open, save or buy, your quiz attempts, study plans, and the results and grades you choose to record.
What you share: community posts and replies, photos you attach, direct messages, study group messages, and materials you contribute.
Payments: the plan or material you paid for, the amount, the date and the payment reference. Card and bank details go directly to Paystack, and StudMac never receives or stores them.
App and device: a notification token if you allow push notifications on the Android app, and basic technical information needed to keep you signed in and secure.

02How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

Show you the courses and materials for your department, level and curriculum.
Unlock what you have paid for, and send payment receipts.
Generate your AI practice quizzes and study plans.
Run the community, messages and study groups, and send you notifications and study digests.
Verify your email, help you reset your password, and answer support requests.
Protect materials from copying, prevent abuse, and keep StudMac secure.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for third-party advertising.

03Who Can See What

Your community posts and replies, and your name on them, are visible to other StudMac students. Direct messages are only between you and the connection you are messaging. Study group messages and member lists are visible only to the members of that group. Your recorded results, CGPA, payments and study plans are private to you.

04Services We Use

StudMac relies on trusted providers that handle data on our behalf, only for the purposes below:

Vercel and Neon, to host the website and store our database.
Cloudinary, to store and deliver study materials and images.
Paystack, to process payments.
Expo and Google Firebase, to deliver push notifications to the Android app.
Our email provider, to send verification, password reset, receipt and digest emails.
Anthropic, to generate AI quizzes and study plans. Only course and material content is sent for this, never your name or email address.

05Keeping Your Data Safe

Data is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS), passwords are stored as one-way hashes, and the app keeps your sign-in in your phone’s secure storage. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your information and limit who on our team can access it.

06How Long We Keep It

We keep your information for as long as you have a StudMac account. If you delete your account, we delete your personal information, except payment records, which we may need to keep for accounting and legal reasons.

07Your Rights

Under the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023, you can ask to see the personal information we hold about you, correct it, or have it deleted, and you can withdraw consent for optional things like push notifications at any time in your phone settings. You can update most of your details in your profile. Department and level changes go through a quick review.

To request a copy of your data or to delete your account, email studmacofficial@gmail.com from your registered email address.

08Changes to This Policy

If we change how we use your information, we will update this page and the date at the top, and tell you in the app or by email when the change is important.
