Cookies

We use only first-party cookies that the site needs to work. No advertising, analytics or third-party tracking cookies, and no cookie banner, because there is nothing optional to agree to.

Cookies we set

Cookie	What it does	Lasts
gtlea_rt	Keeps you signed in. Set only when you sign in. Your browser's scripts cannot read it (HttpOnly), it is sent only to our sign-in service, over HTTPS, and never to other sites.	Until you sign out, or 7 days
gtlea_si	A sign-in hint: its value is always 1 and it holds no identifier. It lets our pages show "Continue learning" instead of asking our server on every page. Set and removed together with gtlea_rt.	Same as gtlea_rt
edition	Remembers the edition you chose (India, Australia or Global) so the home page opens in it. Set only when you choose. Holds in, au or gl, nothing else.	1 year

Technical data our servers record (not a cookie)

Server logs. Our servers write a short technical line for every request they receive: the IP address, the date and time, the page or address asked for (and whether it worked), and the browser type your browser reports. We keep these logs for 180 days and then delete them. We need them to keep the service secure (to find and stop attacks and misuse) and because Indian cyber-security rules (the CERT-In directions of 28 April 2022) ask service providers to keep such logs for 180 days. Only a few staff who run the servers can see them. We do not use them for marketing or analytics, and we do not use them to build a profile of you. From May 2027, Indian data-protection rules (Digital Personal Data Protection Rules 2025) ask us to keep logs for one year; we will then keep them one year and update this notice.

Your country (for the edition). When a page of the website is asked for, our own server looks up which country the IP address belongs to, in a country list kept on that server ("IP to Country Lite" by DB-IP.com, licensed CC BY 4.0). Only the two-letter country code is passed on, to suggest the India, Australia or Global edition. Nothing is sent to DB-IP or anyone else, the country is not stored with your account or in a cookie, and you can always pick another edition. Prices, tax and the seller are set by your billing country at checkout, never by this guess. The details are in the Privacy notice.

Things kept in your browser, not sent to us

Your light/dark theme choice, your lesson language (English or Hindi, only if you pick one) are kept in your browser's own storage, not in a cookie, and are never sent to us. You can clear them in your browser at any time.

Payment pages

When you pay, you go to a payment page run by Stripe. Stripe sets its own cookies on its page, for security and fraud checks. Its privacy policy applies there. We load no payment code on any other page.

Your choice

Because these cookies are needed for the site to work (or are set only when you ask for them), the law does not require us to ask first. You can block or delete cookies in your browser; if you block gtlea_rt, you will not be able to stay signed in.
