At APSpoint, your privacy is important to us. We believe in being transparent about how we handle the information you provide while using our site to calculate your APS scores, research bursaries, or navigate university applications.
This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information.
1. Information We Collect
We aim to collect as little personal data as possible to provide you with the best experience.
- Usage Data: Like most websites, we collect standard information provided by your browser when you visit. This includes your IP address, browser type, the pages you view, and the time spent on our site. This helps us understand which guides are most helpful.
- Voluntary Input: If you use our APS calculator or search tools, the data you enter (such as your subject marks) is processed locally in your browser. We do not store or save these individual marks in a database.
- Contact Information: If you email us, we will store your name and email address only to respond to your inquiry.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- To keep the website running smoothly and ensure our guides are accurate and accessible.
- To improve our content based on what our readers find most useful.
- To respond to your questions or feedback sent via our contact page.
- To prevent fraud and keep our platform secure for all students.
3. Cookies
APSpoint uses cookies to improve your experience. These are small text files placed on your device to remember your preferences (like your preferred browser settings). You can choose to disable cookies through your browser settings, though this may impact how some parts of our site function.
4. Third-Party Services
We may use third-party services, such as Google Analytics, to help us understand how our site is used. These providers have their own privacy policies regarding how they handle data. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third-party advertisers.
5. Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the information you share with us. However, please remember that no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We strongly advise you never to send sensitive personal documents—such as your ID number, bank statements, or tax records—via email or through our contact form.
6. Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Ask us what personal information we have about you.
- Request that we delete your contact information from our records.
- Opt out of any non-essential communications.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices. When we do, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page.
