We collect information that you provide directly to us when you create an account, save colleges to your profile, or submit student reviews. This includes your name, email address, password, and any details shared within your reviews.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information to:

• Provide, maintain, and improve our college discovery services.
• Authenticate your account session and manage your saved bookmarks.

3. Data Protection and Security

We implement robust security measures to protect your user credentials and credentials data. Passwords are securely hashed using bcrypt encryption before storage in our PostgreSQL database. While we strive to protect your personal details, no transmission method over the internet is 100% secure.
