Welcome to TC College App (the "App"). We value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our App. By using the App, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
Information You Provide
No Personal Data is collected by the App:
Our App does not collect any personal data such as your email ID, phone number, or any other personal information. All data displayed in the App is provided by the admin with your consent.
Information Automatically Collected
- Android ID: We collect the Android ID, which is a unique identifier for each device. The Android ID is used to ensure that each user account is accessed from a single device, enhancing the security and integrity of our service and is a part of TC College of Aviation Guideline for security.
- Access Tokens: Access tokens are stored locally on your device using shared preferences to manage your authentication session securely.
Information Provided by the Admin
The App displays data that the admin has already collected and provided to the App. This data may include, but is not limited to:
- Name
- Email ID
- Phone number
- Place
- User Course
- Other relevant information that the admin deems necessary for the App's functionality
This information is solely used for display purposes and is not collected or stored by the App.
How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information to:
- Security and Integrity: We utilize the Android ID as a mechanism to ensure that only students affiliated with TC College can access the contents of the app. When a user first logs into the app, their device ID is registered, and subsequent login attempts are verified against this ID. This process helps us authenticate that the request is originating from the same device, thereby preventing unauthorized access by individuals who may have obtained login credentials from other students. By implementing this measure, we aim to maintain the exclusivity of app contents to authorized users and uphold the security and integrity of our platform.
- Session Management: Manage and maintain your authenticated session within the App using access tokens stored locally on your device. Access tokens are used to verify your identity and keep you logged in as you use the App.
Detailed Explanation of Data Storage and Security
Shared preferences are a storage mechanism that allows the App to store data locally on your device in a key-value pair format. We use shared preferences to securely store access tokens, which are used to maintain your login session. Shared preferences are private and can only be accessed by the App.
Data Security: We take the security of your data seriously. We implement a variety of security measures to ensure the protection of your Android ID and access tokens. These measures include:
- Secure communication channels: We use secure communication channels (HTTPS) to encrypt data transmission between your device and our servers. This helps to protect your information from being intercepted by unauthorized parties.
- Regular security audits: We conduct regular security audits to identify and address any potential vulnerabilities in our systems.
However, please be aware that no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
User Rights
Since our App primarily collects Android IDs and stores access tokens locally, user rights related to data access, correction, deletion, and portability are limited. However, we are committed to addressing any concerns you may have about your data. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us using the details provided below.
Third-Party Services
We do not share, sell, or distribute your Android ID, access tokens, or any data displayed in the App to third parties. All data is used solely for the purpose of providing and enhancing the App's functionality.
Children's Privacy
Our App does not knowingly collect, use, or disclose data from children under the age of 13. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal data from a child under the age of 13, we will take steps to delete the information as soon as possible. If you believe that we might have any information from or about a child under the age of 13, please contact us using the details provided below.
Changes to This Privacy Policy

You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Your continued use of the App after any modifications to the Privacy Policy will signify your acknowledgment of the modifications and your consent to abide and be bound by the updated Privacy Policy.
