Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 24, 2026

1. Overview

This Privacy Policy explains how GATEOS collects, uses, stores, and displays information when you use the GATEOS website, dashboard, and related study-tracking features. It is intended to help you understand what information is connected to your account, why it is used, and how it supports the operation of the service.

2. Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to GATEOS features used for account access, preparation tracking, progress analytics, textbook logging, reminders, dashboards, and AI-assisted suggestion features. It applies to information that you provide directly, information received from sign-in providers, and information generated through your use of the product.

3. Information We Collect

GATEOS may collect and store the following categories of information:

Account Information. When you sign in with Google, GATEOS uses your Google Account email ID and profile photo in the dashboard. Your email ID is stored for account access, account identification, and returning you to your existing dashboard data on future sign-ins.

Profile Information. This may include your display name, first name, institution, chosen theme, target exam date, and profile image information visible inside the dashboard.

Study and Performance Data. GATEOS stores the study sessions, revision logs, practice logs, mock test data, textbook data, textbook reading logs, topics, notes, task information, progress signals, and related preparation records that you choose to add.

Service Usage Data. GATEOS may store operational data needed to support ongoing sessions, dashboard preferences, and product functionality such as settings and saved workflow state.

4. How We Use Information

GATEOS uses information to operate and improve the service, including to:

Authenticate you and associate your data with your account.

Display your profile, including your Google Account email ID and profile photo where relevant inside the dashboard.

Generate dashboards, analytics, streaks, calendars, textbook reading insights, and subject-wise performance views.

Provide reminders, history, saved planning data, and continuity across sessions.

Support AI-generated recommendations and preparation guidance when those features are enabled and used.

5. Google Sign-In Information

GATEOS uses Google sign-in for account access. When you use Google sign-in, GATEOS may receive certain basic account information from Google, including your email address, display name, and profile image, subject to the permissions provided through that sign-in flow. GATEOS uses your email ID for account access and your profile photo for account presentation inside the dashboard.

6. AI Suggestions and Vercel AI Gateway

GATEOS uses Vercel AI Gateway for AI suggestions and related AI-assisted features, including preparation guidance generated with the DeepSeek V4 Flash model. When you use those features, relevant dashboard context may be processed through that integration for the purpose of producing recommendations, summaries, or guidance. You should avoid submitting information that you do not want used in connection with those AI features.

7. Storage and Retention

GATEOS stores information for as long as needed to maintain account access, preserve dashboard continuity, support product functionality, and operate the service. Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information, operational requirements, and whether the account remains active.

8. Data Sharing and Third Parties

GATEOS does not describe itself as a public data marketplace. However, certain third-party services are used in connection with account access and AI functionality. These include Google for authentication and Vercel AI Gateway for AI suggestion features. Information may also be processed by infrastructure and hosting systems required to run the application.

9. Security

GATEOS uses reasonable efforts to protect account and dashboard information appropriate to the nature of the product. However, no method of storage, transmission, or online service operation can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and GATEOS cannot promise absolute security.

10. Your Choices

You control much of the study and profile information you add to GATEOS. You may also choose whether to use AI-assisted features. If you do not want certain study details reflected in analytics or AI outputs, you should avoid entering that information into the corresponding features.

11. Changes to This Policy

GATEOS may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect product, legal, operational, or feature changes. When updates are made, the revised policy may be posted with an updated effective or last-updated date.
