Privacy Policy & Terms of Service

Last updated: August 14, 2026

Privacy Policy

Bijoy Tutoring ("I," "me," or "my") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information I collect through this website, why I collect it, and how it's handled.

Information I Collect

When you fill out a form on this site (the contact form or the review form), I collect:

  • Your name
  • Your email address
  • Your student's grade level (contact form only)
  • Any message or review you write

This website itself doesn't collect payment information; there's no payment field anywhere on the site. Payments are handled separately through Zelle or Venmo. As part of receiving a payment through those platforms, I may see basic information they display, such as your name and the payment amount.

How I Use This Information

  • To respond to your inquiry and schedule tutoring sessions
  • To display client reviews on this site, only after I've reviewed and approved them
  • I never sell or share your information with third parties for marketing purposes

Third-Party Services

This site uses a few outside services to work:

  • Formspree, to deliver form submissions to my email
  • Supabase, to store review submissions until they're approved and shown on the site
  • Google Fonts, to display the site's typography. Loading these fonts may cause Google's servers to log basic technical information, such as your IP address, which is standard practice for most websites that use custom fonts

Your information passes through these services only to make the site function, not for any other purpose.

How Long I Keep Your Information

I retain the information you submit for as long as needed to respond to your inquiry or provide tutoring services, or until you ask me to delete it, whichever comes first.

Security

I take reasonable precautions to protect the information you share with me. That said, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and I can't guarantee absolute security.

Information About Minors

Many of my tutoring clients are school-age students. Forms on this site are intended to be filled out by a parent or guardian on behalf of their student, not by children directly. I don't knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. If you believe a child has submitted information directly, contact me at emma@bijoys.com and I'll remove it.

Your Choices

You can ask me at any time to:

  • See what information I have on file for you
  • Correct inaccurate information
  • Delete your information

Just email emma@bijoys.com with your request.

Governing Law

This policy is governed by the laws of the State of Illinois.

Changes to This Policy

If this policy changes, I'll update the "Last updated" date above.

Terms of Service

By booking a session with me, whether arranged through email or text, you agree to the following:

Services

Bijoy Tutoring provides private, one-on-one math tutoring for students from elementary through high school, including SAT math preparation. All sessions are conducted remotely (online).

Scheduling and Sessions

Sessions are 30 minutes long and typically scheduled on a weekly basis. I ask that cancellations or rescheduling requests be made at least 24 hours before the scheduled session whenever possible. That said, there's no charge for a session as long as the cancellation is communicated before the session's start time, via text or email.

Payment

Sessions are $40 per 30 minutes. For longer sessions, the rate increases proportionally (for example, a 60-minute session is $80). Payment is made via Zelle or Venmo only. I typically send invoices on a biweekly basis.

Reviews

By submitting a review through this site, you agree that it may be displayed publicly after I've reviewed it. I reserve the right not to publish a review, or to remove one at any time.

Limitation of Liability

Tutoring services are provided in good faith to support student learning, but I can't guarantee specific grade outcomes, test scores, or results, as these depend on many factors outside a tutor's control.

Changes to These Terms

If these terms change, I'll update the "Last updated" date above.
