Privacy Policy — The Genius Prof

Effective date: 11 November 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how The Genius Prof ("we", "us") collects, uses, shares and protects your information when you use The Genius Prof mobile app (Android and iOS) and the website thegeniusprof.com (together, the "Service"). By using the Service you agree to this policy.

1. Information we collect

Information you give us

• Account information: your name, phone number, email address (if provided) and password (stored only in encrypted/hashed form).
• Profile and study information: the programs you enroll in, your progress, quiz and exam answers and results, notes, assignments and certificates.
• Content you upload: photos, files, voice or video you choose to send (for example, assignments or questions to instructors).
• Support messages: messages you send us through the support chat or Support Center.
• Payment information: records of the programs you paid for (amount, date, method). Card details are entered directly with our payment providers; we do not store full card numbers.

Information collected automatically

• Device information: device model, operating system and version, app version, a device identifier generated by the app, and IP address. We use this to limit the number of devices per account and to protect your account.
• Usage information: lessons and videos viewed, watch time, sign-in times and in-app actions, used to show your progress and to improve the Service.
• Security signals: to protect paid educational content, the app may check whether screen recording, screenshots, a VPN or a modified (rooted/jailbroken) device is active while protected content is open. These checks only produce a yes/no signal; the app does not record your screen and does not read other apps' content.
• Notification token: a push-notification token (Firebase Cloud Messaging) so we can send you lesson, exam and account notifications.

2. App permissions

• Camera and microphone: used only when you join a live session, record or take a photo to upload. Never used in the background.
• Photos, media and files: used only when you choose a file to upload or save lessons for offline viewing.
• Notifications: to send you lesson, exam and account alerts. You can turn them off in your device settings.
• Internet and network state: to load content and to resume downloads.

You can allow or deny any permission from your device settings. Denying a permission only disables the feature that needs it.

3. How we use your information

• To create and manage your account and let you sign in.
• To provide the programs, lessons, live sessions, exams and certificates you enroll in.
• To process payments and keep payment records.
• To send you service notifications (new lessons, exams, results, account and security alerts).
• To protect accounts and paid content, prevent account sharing, fraud and misuse.
• To answer support requests and improve the Service.
• To comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for third-party advertising. The app contains no ads.

4. Sharing your information

We share information only with:

• Service providers who host and operate the Service for us (cloud hosting, video delivery, Google Firebase Cloud Messaging for notifications, and payment providers), only as needed to provide the Service and under confidentiality obligations.
• Your instructors and our staff, who can see your name, enrollments, progress and results in order to teach and support you.
• Authorities, when required by law or to protect the rights and safety of our users and the Service.

5. Data security

All data is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS). Passwords are stored hashed, and access to personal data is limited to authorized staff. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we work to protect your information.

6. Data retention

We keep your information while your account is active. When you delete your account, we delete or anonymize your personal data within 30 days, except records we must keep for a limited time by law (for example, financial records).

7. Your rights and choices

• View and update your profile information from inside the app.
• Turn off notifications and permissions from your device settings.
• Delete your account and data at any time: in the app go to Account → Settings → Delete account, or follow the steps at thegeniusprof.com/delete-account.

8. Children

The Service is intended for dental students and professionals and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the new version on this page with a new effective date, and notify you in the app for significant changes.

10. Contact us

For any question about this policy or your data, contact us through the support chat on thegeniusprof.com or from the Support Center in the app.
