Alphzen Past Papers (“we”, “us”, or “our”) is an educational product of Alphzen, a software company based in Sri Lanka. This policy applies to pastpapers.alphzen.com and related pages we operate for this product.

• Email: contact@alphzen.com
• Website: pastpapers.alphzen.com
• Parent company: www.alphzen.com

You can browse published papers without creating an account. We may collect:

• Information you send us — such as name, email address and message details when you contact us or request a paper
• Usage data — pages viewed, paper view and download counts stored as anonymous events tied to a paper, not to a named person
• Technical data — limited server or security logs (for example IP address truncated or hashed for abuse prevention), browser type and device information
• Cookies and similar technologies — described in this policy and our Cookie Policy

Admin accounts use authentication and are limited to people who manage content. Admin credentials are not part of the public student experience.

• Operate and improve the past-paper catalogue
• Respond to contact messages and paper requests
• Prevent spam, abuse and security incidents
• Understand aggregate traffic with analytics (when enabled)
• Show advertising with Google AdSense (when enabled)
• Meet legal obligations where required

We use cookies and similar technologies to run the site, measure usage and — when advertising is enabled — serve and measure ads. Strictly necessary cookies keep the site working. Analytics and advertising cookies may be set by us or by third parties such as Google. Full details are in our Cookie Policy.

When Google Analytics is configured, it helps us understand aggregate visits and popular pages. Analytics data is used to improve the product, not to sell student profiles. Learn more at Google’s Privacy Policy and How Google uses information from sites that use its services. Browser opt-out: Google Analytics Opt-out.

This site may display advertising served by Google AdSense and other third-party vendors. To comply with Google’s advertising requirements we disclose the following:

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to this website or other websites
• Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet
• Users may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings
• You can also opt out of personalised advertising from participating companies at aboutads.info/choices and youronlinechoices.eu

Third-party vendors we do not control may use their own cookies and technologies under their own policies. Ads may still appear if you opt out of personalisation, but they will be less tailored.

For visitors in the EEA, UK and Switzerland, where required we seek consent for advertising cookies and personalised advertising in line with Google’s EU User Consent Policy before such cookies are set.

We do not sell your personal information. We may share data with service providers who help us host the site, store files, send email, analyse traffic or serve ads (for example hosting, database, storage and Google). We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect the site and our users.

We keep contact and request details only as long as needed to handle your enquiry and run the service, then delete or anonymise them where practical. We use HTTPS and access controls appropriate for an educational catalogue site. No method of transmission is perfectly secure.

This site provides examination papers for study. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children for marketing profiles, and we do not require students to create a public account to browse papers. If you believe a child has sent us personal data that should be removed, email contact@alphzen.com.

You can control cookies through your browser settings and the advertising opt-out links above. You may also email us to ask what contact data we hold about you, or to request correction or deletion of information you sent us, subject to legal retention needs.

We may update this policy as the product, advertising or law changes. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised policy.

Privacy questions, access requests or complaints: contact@alphzen.com or use the contact page.
