Last updated: May 2026

1. Overview

Interview Cracker ("we", "our", or "the app") is a free technical interview preparation platform available at www.icracker.net. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, and how it is used.

2. Data We Collect

Google account information — your name, email address, and profile picture, collected only when you choose to sign in with Google.
Usage data — read counts, pinned questions, topic progress, and study preferences, stored to sync your progress across devices.
Feedback and suggestions — any text you submit through the feedback or suggest-a-question forms.
Device information — browser type and device type, collected anonymously for performance monitoring.

3. How We Use Your Data

To sync your pins, read counts, and topic progress across your devices.
To personalise your study experience (theme preferences, last position).
To respond to feedback and improve the question bank.
To monitor app performance and fix errors.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with any third party for marketing purposes.

4. Third-Party Services

We use the following trusted third-party services:

Firebase (Google) — authentication, database (Firestore), and hosting infrastructure.
Google OAuth 2.0 — sign-in only; we receive your basic profile information.

Each of these services has its own privacy policy. We encourage you to review them.

5. Data Storage & Security

Your data is stored securely in Google Firestore with access controls. We use HTTPS for all data in transit. Only you can access your personal study data; admin access is restricted to the application owner.

6. Your Rights

Access — you can view all data associated with your account by signing in.
Deletion — you can request deletion of your account and all associated data by emailing us.
Opt out — you may use the app without signing in; no personal data is collected from guest users.

7. Cookies & Local Storage

We use browser localStorage to store your preferences (theme, last read position) locally on your device. We do not use third-party tracking cookies or advertising cookies. Firebase may set session cookies for authentication purposes.

8. Children's Privacy

Interview Cracker is intended for adults preparing for technical job interviews. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under the age of 13.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
