1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how SolveNow ("we," "us") collects, uses, stores, and protects personal information of Students, parents/guardians, and Experts using our Platform.
2. Information We Collect
From Students (and parents/guardians of minor Students)
- Name, mobile number, email address, class/grade or course level, subjects of interest
- Parent/guardian mobile number (for Students under 18)
- Wallet transaction history and payment references (UPI transaction IDs / UTR numbers)

Automatically Collected
- Session metadata (start/end times, duration, connection quality)
- Device and browser information for security and support purposes
Session Recording
- All live video sessions on SolveNow are automatically recorded once both the Student and Expert have joined the call. This is a standing feature of the Platform and is not optional on a per-session basis.
- Recordings are made and stored via our third-party video infrastructure provider (Daily.co) and are used solely for: (a) safety monitoring and investigation of conduct complaints, (b) resolution of billing or session-quality disputes, and (c) quality assurance.
- Recordings are accessible only to authorized SolveNow personnel for the purposes above, and are not shared publicly or with unrelated third parties.
- Recordings are retained for as long as reasonably necessary for safety monitoring, dispute resolution, and quality assurance purposes, and are periodically reviewed and deleted thereafter. SolveNow does not retain recordings indefinitely.
- By joining a live session, both the Student (or their parent/guardian, where the Student is a minor) and the Expert consent to this recording.
3. How We Use Your Information
- To provide and bill for tutoring sessions
- To verify Expert identity and qualifications before approving them to teach
- To process Expert payouts, including any legally required tax deductions
- To investigate safety complaints or disputes between Users
- To communicate service updates, verification links, and support responses
- To improve the Platform and prevent fraud or misuse
We do not sell personal information to third parties.
4. Data Sharing
We share information only as necessary with:
- Payment processors (for wallet top-ups)
- Video infrastructure providers (for live video sessions)

- Regulatory or law enforcement authorities, where required by law
Expert identity and banking documents are accessible only to authorized SolveNow administrative personnel for verification and payout purposes.
5. Data of Minors
SolveNow recognizes that many Students are minors. We:
- Require parent/guardian mobile numbers at registration for accountability
- Do not knowingly permit private, unsupervised, off-platform communication between Experts and minor Students

- Users may request deletion of their account and associated personal data, subject to our obligation to retain certain financial and compliance records as required by law.
7. Data Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal data, including authenticated access controls on our database and document storage systems. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
