The Information We Collect and How We Use It
In operating the Redtail Service, we collect the following types of information, which may include personal information:

User Content: You may upload study materials or files (e.g., text, images, or other documents) to generate quizzes. We process this content using third-party services like OpenAI API for quiz generation and Whisper AI for text extraction, solely to provide the personalized quiz experience. We do not use your uploaded content for any other purpose unless required to enforce our terms of service or troubleshoot issues.
Usage Data: We collect data about your interactions with the Service, including quiz performance, session duration, and device information (e.g., IP address, browser type), to improve functionality and adapt quizzes to your learning level.

Firebase: Stores user details and account information securely.
These providers process data on our behalf under strict confidentiality agreements. Their respective privacy policies apply to their handling of data, and we encourage you to review them. We may update or add third-party providers as needed and will reflect such changes in this Privacy Notice.

How We Protect Your Information
We take the security of your data seriously and implement reasonable measures (e.g., encryption and secure storage via Firebase) to protect it from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse.
