Privacy policy
Effective 15 November 2026
In short: Learn Biz does not collect any data about you. There is no account, no tracking, no analytics and no ads. Your progress stays on your own devices and, if you use iCloud, in your own iCloud account. The only time we receive anything is if you choose to send us a message on WhatsApp to ask about one-to-one classes.
This page explains how the Learn Biz app handles your information on iPhone, iPad and Mac. On your Home Screen the app appears as "IB Biz". "We" means the developer of Learn Biz, Yash Khetan, and the IB teachers who teach the optional one-to-one classes.
What we collect
Nothing. The app itself does not send any personal information, usage data or device data to us or to anyone else. All of its content is stored inside the app, and the only time it goes online itself is to sync your progress through your own iCloud account, if you use iCloud. We cannot see who uses the app or what they do in it.
No account
You do not need to sign up or log in. To study, the app never asks for your name, email address, school or any other details.
No tracking, analytics or ads
- The app has no analytics or crash-reporting tools.
- It shows no ads and contains no advertising code.
- It does not track you across other apps or websites.
- It has no in-app purchases.
Your progress stays on your device
The app saves your progress so you can carry on where you left off. This includes your SL or HL choice, your exam session if you enter it, the answers you type or draw for practice questions, the marks you give yourself, your mock papers, your flashcard schedule, the notes you have read, your weekly plan and your streak. All of this is stored on your device, inside the app's own storage. It is never sent to us or to anyone else.
iCloud sync. If you are signed in to iCloud, the app keeps a copy of this progress in your own private iCloud account (Apple's iCloud key-value storage), so it is the same on your iPhone, iPad and Mac. This copy belongs to your Apple Account. We cannot see it, and Apple handles it under its own privacy policy. If you are not signed in to iCloud, or turn iCloud off for the app, progress stays only on the device.
If you delete the app, the progress on that device is deleted with it. A copy kept in your iCloud account may come back when you install the app again. Reset progress in Settings deletes it on this device and, with iCloud, on your other devices too.
The app also has an optional widget that shows today's set, your streak and the flashcards due. The app writes these few numbers to storage that only the app and its widget share, on the same device. They are not sent anywhere.
Backup files. If you choose Save a backup in Settings, the app makes a file of your progress and you decide where to keep it. We never receive it. Load a backup reads a file you choose, on your device.
One-to-one classes: Work with an IB expert
The app has an optional page, Work with an IB expert, for students who want paid one-to-one online classes with one of our IB teachers. The classes are arranged and paid for outside the app.
- The form stays on your device. On that page you can fill in a short form: your level, exam session, target grade, what you want help with, any notes and, if you wish, a parent or guardian contact. If you have used the app for a while, the form also offers to add a short summary of your progress (for example your latest mock grade, your weak topics and how many days you have studied). This box is ticked at first, and you can untick it. Your answers are saved with your progress (on your device and, with iCloud, in your own iCloud account), so you do not have to type them again. The app does not send them to us.
- You decide whether to send it. When you tap Open WhatsApp, the app opens WhatsApp with your message filled in. Nothing is sent until you press send in WhatsApp yourself. You can read and change the message first. You can also copy the message instead and send it yourself.
- What we receive if you send it. If you send the message, we receive what is in it, and WhatsApp shows us your WhatsApp name and phone number. WhatsApp is run by WhatsApp LLC (Meta) under its own privacy policy.
- How we use it. Only to reply to you, arrange a free intro call and, if you want them, your classes. We do not sell it, use it for advertising or share it with anyone else.
- How long we keep it. We keep the chat for as long as we are arranging or teaching your classes. If you do not go ahead, or when your classes end, we delete it within 12 months. You can ask us to delete it at any time.
- If you are under 18. Please tell a parent or guardian before you ask about paid classes. You can add their contact to the message, and we will arrange fees with them.
Your rights
If you sent us a message, you can ask us to show you, correct or delete what we hold about you, or to stop using it. Write to us using the contact below, or reply in the same WhatsApp chat. We reply within one month. If you live in the UK or the European Union, you also have the right to complain to your data protection authority (in the UK, the Information Commissioner's Office).
No third parties in the app
The app does not include any third-party code. All notes, questions, games, figures and fonts are stored inside the app and work offline. We do not share or sell any information.
Links to other websites and apps
The study content has no links to other websites. The Open WhatsApp button on the Work with an IB expert page opens WhatsApp outside the app, as described above.
Children's privacy
Learn Biz is made for students taking IB Diploma Business Management, who are usually 16 to 19 years old. It is not made for young children. The app collects no personal information from anyone, of any age. If you are a parent and believe your child sent us a message you want removed, contact us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
If the way the app handles information ever changes, we will update this page and change the effective date at the top.
