Last updated: 1 November 2026. This policy explains how the Science With Jasseeth public website handles information. It covers this website and student document contributions. The separately operated learning application maintains its own account and learning-data practices.
Information you provide
A contribution includes the student name, school, grade or A/L stream, subject, term or lesson period, document title, optional description and uploaded PDF. We record the submission time and the sharing and credit permissions selected on the form. Please avoid including private information about yourself or other people in the PDF.
How contributions are used
The administrator uses these details to review the document, make educational corrections and choose an appropriate publication section. Submissions and source PDFs are stored privately before approval. Only an approved final PDF and its accompanying post are made public. The student name, school and grade appear as credit only when permission was given and the administrator chooses to display that credit.
Children and family information
Students under 18 should have a parent or guardian review and approve their submission and credit choice. The website does not ask for a date of birth, password, Parent PIN, payment information or school account login. Website contributions are stored separately from the application database.
Technical information and cookies
The hosting service may process connection information such as IP addresses, browser details and access logs for normal operation and security. The upload service uses a salted digest of the request source for a temporary one-hour upload limit. WordPress uses necessary authentication and security cookies for administrators. Public browsing does not require a student account.
External services
YouTube loads only after you choose to play a lesson. Its provider receives connection information and may use its own storage or cookies. Social links follow the selected provider’s practices. This website also uses the first-party visitor counter described below. This counter adds no advertising or third-party analytics service. See the Cookies page for more details.
Retention, access and removal
Contributions, review history and original documents are retained for as long as needed to review, maintain and verify the published material or handle a related request. Access to private review records is limited to authorised website administrators. Contact us to request a correction, withdraw public credit or request removal of a contribution. Tell us which document is affected and your relationship to it. We may need to verify the request before changing or removing material. Public downloads already saved by others cannot be recalled.
Contact and changes
Use the official Contact page for privacy questions. This policy may be updated when the website’s practices change. The published update date identifies the current version.
Exams, saved resources and correction reports
Timed exams use a necessary secure browser session cookie to identify an attempt. The website stores the name entered for the exam, the selected exam, start and deadline, saved answers, submission time, marks and teacher feedback in the website database. Scheduled exams may require an access code issued privately by the administrator. These records are not imported into the separate learning application and are not displayed in public results lists.
Only answers received by the server before the deadline are accepted. An active attempt may temporarily keep an unsaved draft in this browser tab so a refresh can recover it. The draft is removed when the attempt ends. Ask the administrator about access, corrections or removal of your exam records.
Saved-resource bookmarks and your light/dark choice are kept in this browser. The administrator does not receive your bookmark list. A correction report contains the affected resource, issue description and an optional reply email; only authorised administrators can read it. These website records are retained for review and the provision of the relevant service. Use Contact to request access or removal.
Jasseeth AI Assistant and website learning accounts
The AI assistant uses the same Student / Parent portal session. The selected Student profile supplies its preferred explanation level, learning medium and current course access. General educational questions can cover any class; the profile grade is not a question eligibility restriction. The website stores a student ID and learning-profile mapping for AI credit accounting; it does not create a second WordPress user or copy the email, phone number, date of birth, school or Parent PIN. Daily AI allowances and paid AI credits are separate from course subscriptions.
When you ask a question, the website sends the question, selected grade, subject, medium and relevant lesson passages, indexed official-book excerpts or official book links to the configured AI provider to prepare an answer. Administrators can index a matching public official book once. Extracted page text stays private in the website database; only relevant short passages are sent for a question. In live-reference mode, Google Search and URL Context may process education search queries and public official documents. If search or a matching official lesson is unavailable, the website can query the public Wikipedia API in Tamil, Sinhala or English, read short article extracts and send those extracts to the AI provider. The tutor understands Tanglish and mixed-language study questions and can generate a short English concept query for the public Wikipedia API. If no reference is available, stable educational concepts can still receive an AI explanation labeled Study explanation. Only successfully checked references are linked, and Wikipedia is not labeled as an official textbook. Current facts require live confirmation. Maths answers use a bounded numeric website calculator or provider-side code execution for checks. Generated Python code never runs on this website server. Provider search queries may have separate service charges. The current provider is selected by the administrator. The request does not attach your account name, telephone number or school. Avoid typing personal information into questions.
Request records help prevent duplicate credit charges and include a question fingerprint rather than the plain question text. Temporary answer text is cleared by scheduled cleanup after approximately one day; credit and request-accounting records remain until the administrator removes them. A pending question may stay temporarily in this browser tab to recover an interrupted request. AI providers process requests under their own terms and privacy policies. Contact the administrator about access to or removal of website learning records.
Student and Parent portal: email verification
The Student / Parent portal verifies registration by email code and supports a family username and password. It stores the verified family email, WhatsApp contact number, student name, grade or A/L stream, learning medium, school, district, date of birth, gender and guardian consent. New WhatsApp contacts are not verified and receive no OTP. Existing family mobile/password accounts can securely link an email without losing student profiles, Parent PINs or paid access.
The configured Gmail SMTP service processes the sender and recipient addresses, verification message and email metadata. Student profile details are not included in these OTP emails. Codes expire after ten minutes and work once. The portal uses necessary secure browser session cookies; codes and credentials are not saved in browser local storage.
Parent Access still needs its separate private PIN. Paid access still requires administrator approval. The AI assistant uses the same Student portal session. Read the portal privacy and deletion information before registering, and contact the administrator for access, correction or deletion requests. Do not send passwords, Parent PINs or verification codes to support.
Website language preference
The website opens in Tamil by default. Language links keep the chosen language while you browse. This tab can keep your scroll position briefly when you switch languages. The original PDF keeps its language.
Website visitor counter
The counter uses a signed random browser identifier in a secure first-party cookie for up to 12 months. It stores a hash of that identifier and first/last visit times; it does not store your name, email address or full IP address. Today follows Sri Lanka time. Online means visible-page activity within the last 5 minutes. Administrator visits and recognised bots are excluded, and Do Not Track / Global Privacy Control signals are honoured. Inactive identifier records are scheduled for removal after 400 days; aggregated totals remain. Clearing or blocking this cookie affects visitor estimates.
Optional notifications
We send new post alerts only after you opt in using the bell. The push subscription address and encryption keys provided by your browser are stored on our WordPress server. Your browser uses its Google, Mozilla, Microsoft or Apple push network to deliver the alerts. No phone number is required. Turn them off using the same bell or revoke permission in your browser.
