IELTSPro ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights in relation to it.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information you provide directly to us when you create an account, enroll in courses, or contact us for support. This includes your name, email address, and any content you submit such as writing tasks and speaking recordings.
We also collect usage data automatically, including pages visited, features used, test scores, and lesson progress. This helps us improve the platform and personalise your learning experience.
2. How We Use Your Information

3. AI Processing
Your writing submissions and speaking recordings are processed by our AI systems (powered by OpenAI GPT-4o) to generate personalised feedback. These submissions are transmitted securely and are not used to train external AI models. AI-generated feedback is provided for educational purposes and should not be considered a substitute for professional examination advice.

All third-party providers are contractually bound to handle your data in accordance with this policy.

8. Security
We implement industry-standard security measures including encryption in transit (TLS), encrypted storage of sensitive data, and regular security audits. However, no system is completely secure and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
