Depending on how you use our services, we may collect:

  • Account information — when you create an ISMA Trivia account using a username and password or sign in with Google (via Supabase Auth).
  • Profile information — display name, optional Instagram handle, and avatar or profile picture you choose to upload or select.
  • Quiz activity — answers, scores, quiz progress, drafts, and submission timestamps stored so you can resume quizzes and appear on the leaderboard.

4. Legal basis (EEA/UK users)

Where applicable under GDPR, we process personal data based on: your consent (for example, when you create an account or submit a form), performance of a service you request (running your quiz account), and our legitimate interests in operating and improving a community platform for students.

5. How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with service providers that help us run the site, including:

We keep account and quiz data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service. We may retain certain records for longer where required for security, dispute resolution, or legal compliance. You may request deletion of your account data by contacting us.

7. Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data, and to withdraw consent where processing is consent-based. To exercise these rights, email ismaeropah@gmail.com.

8. Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information, including secure authentication and database access controls. No online service can guarantee absolute security.
