The actual files and images you upload are stored securely on the Cloudinary cloud platform. We do not store the raw files directly on our servers. Instead, we save and use the secure URLs provided by Cloudinary to retrieve and display the uploaded content.
You have full control over the visibility of the content you upload and may change its visibility settings according to the options provided on the platform.
Learnix allows users to save uploaded subjects, topics, or files for easier access at a later time. This saved content feature is handled locally within your browser.
When you save content, information related to that content is stored in your browser's local storage. This data remains on your device and is not transmitted to or stored on our servers.
Saved content stored in local storage will remain available unless you manually choose to unsave the content, clear your browser data, or uninstall the browser or application.
You have full control over locally saved content and may remove it at any time through the platform's interface or your browser settings.
Learnix provides users with the option to submit feedback to help us improve the platform and user experience.

We do not collect or store any personal information as part of the feedback submission process. Feedback messages are stored solely for review and improvement purposes.
We use Google Analytics to track website traffic and user interactions in order to understand usage patterns and improve our services. Google Analytics collects information such as your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and time spent on pages.
This data is aggregated and does not personally identify you. For more details on how Google handles collected data, please refer to Google's Privacy Policy.
