When you interact with WindowsBench.com, we collect different types of information to provide and improve our services:
- Personal Information You Provide: This includes details you give us when you register for an account, book a demo class, purchase online tutoring services, or contact us. This might include your name, email address, phone number, physical address (for billing or service region), and payment information (like credit card details, though we don’t store full card numbers directly on our servers). For students, we might also ask for academic level or specific subject interests to help match you with the right tutor.

- Cookies and Tracking Technologies: We use cookies and similar technologies (like web beacons) to track activity on our service and hold certain information. Cookies are small data files stored on your device. They help us remember your preferences, analyse site traffic, and deliver a more personalised experience. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent, but some parts of our service might not function properly without them.

These providers only access your data to perform tasks on our behalf and are obligated to keep it confidential.
