2. How We Use Your Information

We use personal information collected via our Platform for a variety of business purposes described below:

  • To facilitate account creation and logon process.

  • To render global leaderboards so you can compare your typing speed with other aspirants.
  • To manage your active course subscriptions.

3. Storage & Security of Information

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process.
