Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 12, 2026

Learn Python Academy respects your privacy. This policy briefly explains what data we collect and how we protect it. Written with GDPR in mind.

1. What we collect

  • Email — for sign-up, sign-in, important notifications.
  • Hashed password — we never see your password in plain text.
  • Learning progress — completed lessons, your code, XP.
  • Payment data — processed by our payment provider. We do not store full card details.
  • Technical logs — IP, browser language, country — for security.

2. Why we collect it

To provide the service, remember your progress, prevent abuse, and improve the product (aggregated).

3. Sharing

We do not sell your data. The minimum necessary data is shared with technical providers (hosting, payments, AI, email) under standard DPAs. Transfers outside the EU rely on Standard Contractual Clauses.

4. AI assistant

When you ask the AI, we send your question, your current code, and the task text to our AI provider. We do not send your email or name. On our server we automatically redact obvious emails, phone numbers, and card numbers before forwarding the text to the AI provider. Still, don't paste personal data into the editor.

5. Cookies

Functional only (session, language, theme). Details in the Cookie Policy.

6. Your rights (GDPR)

  • Access — copy of your data.
  • Correction — update inaccurate data.
  • Deletion — fully delete your account.
  • Export — get your progress as JSON.

Requests: support@learnpython.academy. We reply within 30 days.

7. Retention

Data is kept while your account is active. After deletion — 30 days in backups, then erased.

8. Children

Not intended for users under 13. Users below the digital-consent age in their country (13 in the US under COPPA; 14-16 in EU member states under GDPR Art. 8) require parental or guardian consent.

9. Changes

We notify you by email at least 14 days before material changes.

10. California residents (CCPA/CPRA)

If you live in California, you have additional rights under the CCPA/CPRA: to know what personal data we hold; to delete it; to correct it; to opt out of sale or sharing; to limit the use of sensitive personal information; non-discrimination for exercising these rights. We do not sell your personal data and do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising. To exercise these rights, email support@learnpython.academy — we verify identity via the email address on your account.
