2.1 Data You Provide to Us

Depending on how you use the Services, we may collect different data from or about you. Below are some examples to help you better understand the data we collect.

When you create an account and/or use the Services, including through a third-party platform, we collect the following data:

To clarify, Arissa India or its educational partners and third-party service providers may also collect certain information from you in conjunction with enrollment, admission, assignments, exams, and other assessments related to the programs. For example, as part of a proctored exam for a course, Arissa India (or its third-party service providers) may collect certain personally identifiable data from you in order to (a) verify or authenticate your identity or submissions made by you, such as a signature for a test or an assignment log, a photograph or a recording of you (e.g., using a webcam) or information included on a photo identification card or document, or (b) monitor your performance during an exam to confirm that you are abiding by the applicable test rules or requirements (e.g., confirming that you are not using prohibited resources). Arissa India may also collect information about your performance or accomplishments, such as quiz/exam scores, grades, project evaluations, teacher evaluations, and others.
Student Payment Data	If you make payments, we collect certain data about your payment (such as your name and email ID) to process your payment. You must provide certain payment and billing data directly to our payment processing partners, including your name, credit card information, billing address, and zip code.

However, we may collect your bank account, payment gateway, or e-wallet account-related information for scholarships, refunds, or referrals.
Instructor and Moderator Payment Data	If you are an instructor or a Moderator, you should create an account with us where we collect your email address, phone number, social media profile, physical address, PAN, GSTIN, bank details or other data necessary for us to send payments to you. The collection, use, and disclosure of your payment and billing data are subject to your payment account provider’s privacy policy and other terms.
Data About Your Accounts on Other Services	We may obtain certain information through your social media or other online accounts if they are connected to your Arissa India account.

For example, depending on the platform or service, we may collect your name, educational details, professional details, account ID number, login email address, physical address etc. Those platforms and services make information available to us through their APIs. The information we receive depends on what information you (via your privacy settings) or the platform or service decide to give us. If you access or use our Services through a third-party platform or service or click on any third-party links, the collection, use, and sharing of your data will also be subject to that third party’s privacy policies and other agreements.

If you participate, we will collect and store the data you provide as part of participation, such as your name, email address, or phone number. That data is subject to this Privacy Policy unless otherwise stated in the promotion’s official rules or another privacy policy. The collected data will be used to administer the promotion or survey, including notifying winners and distributing rewards.

We may also receive your information from your employers, educational institutions or scholarship providers, where such a third party partly or fully sponsors your program. The third-party sponsoring your participation in the programs may provide us with your information, subject to our agreement with them, and, therefore, the third-party sponsor may be the controller concerning such data.
