Privacy Policy & Terms

Effective date: December 3, 2025

Privacy Policy

At MiningShiksha ( miningshiksha.com ), we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and how we use it.

Information We Collect

  • Account Information: name, email, phone number, Aadhaar or identification (if voluntarily provided), and billing address.
  • Payment Information: we do not store full card details on our servers. Payment is processed via third-party providers (Razorpay, Stripe, PayPal, etc.).
  • Course Usage: courses purchased, progress, quiz results, timestamps, and interactions for analytics and product improvement.
  • Device & Log Data: IP address, browser type, device identifiers, and pages visited for security and analytics.

How We Use Your Information

We use collected data to provide, operate and improve our services, process payments, send transactional emails (order receipts, course access), personalize content, prevent fraud, and comply with the law.

Cookies & Tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to remember preferences, analyze usage, and aid in advertising. You can control cookie settings via your browser; disabling cookies may affect site functionality.

Data Sharing

We do not sell personal data. We may share data with service providers (payment gateways, analytics, email providers) who process data on our behalf under contract. We may disclose data to comply with legal obligations.

Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect personal information, but no online transmission is 100% secure. If you suspect unauthorized access, contact us (see Contact section).

Retention

We retain personal information as long as necessary to provide services, fulfill legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.

Shipping Policy

MiningShiksha is primarily a digital course marketplace. Most products sold on our platform are delivered electronically — you will receive course access links, login credentials, or downloadable resources via email or your account dashboard.

Digital Delivery

  • Immediately after successful payment, you will receive a confirmation email with course access instructions.
  • If you do not receive the email within 30 minutes, check your spam/junk folder or contact support.

Physical Materials

In rare cases, certain courses may include physical materials (books, printed certificates). If physical shipping is applicable:

  • Shipping timelines depend on courier and destination — estimated delivery times will be shown at checkout.
  • Shipping charges (if any) will be displayed at checkout.
  • We are not responsible for delays caused by the courier, customs clearance, or incorrect address input by the buyer.

Address Changes

Please provide the correct shipping address at checkout. Requests to change shipping address after dispatch may not be possible; additional charges may apply.

Terms & Conditions

By using MiningShiksha and purchasing courses, you agree to these Terms & Conditions. Please read carefully.

Course Access & License

Once purchased, you are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access the course content for personal, non-commercial use only. Redistribution, copying, or sharing course videos, materials, or downloadable content outside the platform is strictly prohibited.

User Responsibilities

  • Provide accurate information at registration and checkout.
  • Keep your account credentials secure. You are responsible for activity on your account.
  • Respect intellectual property and do not record or redistribute course materials.

Pricing & Taxes

Course prices are displayed on the product page. Applicable taxes (GST, etc.) or fees will be shown at checkout. We reserve the right to change pricing; orders placed before a change are honored at the price at time of purchase.

Changes to Service

We may modify, update, or discontinue courses or features with notice. We will attempt to provide advance notice for major changes.

Intellectual Property

All content on MiningShiksha (text, images, videos, logos) is owned or licensed by us. Unauthorized use is prohibited and may lead to legal action.

Cancellations & Refunds

Our general policy is: No refunds. Please read the details and limited exceptions below.

No Refunds (Digital Products)

Because our courses are digital and access is granted immediately after purchase, we do not offer refunds once access has been provided. By purchasing you acknowledge and accept this no-refund policy.

Limited Exceptions

In rare circumstances we may consider refunds or partial credits — for example:

  • If we are unable to provide the course you purchased (course cancelled by instructor) and no suitable alternative is available.
  • If there is a duplicate charge or clear technical failure verified by our team.

How to Request an Exception

To request a refund exception, email helpminingshiksha@gmail.com with:

  • Your order ID and full name.
  • Reason for refund request and any supporting evidence/screenshots.
  • We will review and respond within 7–14 business days. Refunds, if approved, will be at our discretion and may be subject to deductions (transaction fees). We may offer store credit or course transfer as alternatives.

Chargebacks

Initiating a chargeback with your payment provider without contacting us first may delay resolution. We reserve the right to dispute chargebacks supported by our records and evidence.
