Privacy Policy
Last Updated: June 16, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to CourseTea. We are fully committed to protecting your individual privacy rights. This document outlines how we collect, process, and secure user information when operating your account.
2. Information We Collect
To keep our platform secure and maintain authentic reviews, we require users to sign in. We do not use passwords; instead, we use Better Auth paired with Google OAuth. When you log in, Google shares the following data with us:
- Your public display name
- Your verified email address
- Your profile avatar image link
3. How Your Data Is Stored & Processed
All application state, user accounts, and review profiles are saved and computed securely using our backend infrastructure on Convex cloud servers. Your personal information is encrypted at rest and is never sold, leased, or rented to external marketing corporations.
4. Cookies and Session Tokens
Better Auth utilizes small text files called cookies or localized browser tokens to keep you securely signed in to CourseTea across browsing sessions. Disabling cookies inside your browser settings will break your active session tracking and prevent you from publishing academic evaluations.
5. Data Retention & Deletion
We preserve user data as long as your evaluation profile is open. If you wish to revoke access or request complete erasure of your reviews and authentication data from our Convex database, please contact our support desk directly.
6. Contact Information
For privacy-related complaints, data access requests, or policy inquiries, please visit our technical maintenance providers at Venture IT.
