Digital Pakpattan respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store and share personal information when you visit pakpattan.net, register for courses, use our student or teacher services, or contact us.
1. Information We Collect
Depending on how you use our website and services, we may collect:
- Contact information: Your name, email address, phone number and any address details you provide.
- Registration information: Account details, selected courses, batches and information submitted through student or teacher registration forms.
- Learning records: Enrolment status, attendance, progress, assessments and certificate records.
- Fee information: Payment status, transaction references and payment receipts you submit.
- Enquiries: Messages, attachments and other information you send through forms, email or WhatsApp.
- Technical information: IP address, browser type, device information and website activity recorded through server logs or enabled website tools.
Please provide only the information requested. Avoid sending passwords or unnecessary sensitive information through messages or uploaded files.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use information to:
- Process registrations and manage user accounts.
- Provide courses, learning support and related services.
- Maintain attendance, progress and fee records.
- Issue and verify certificates.
- Respond to enquiries and service requests.
- Send account, course, payment and certificate updates.
- Maintain website security, resolve technical issues and prevent misuse.
- Meet applicable legal and recordkeeping obligations.
If we send promotional messages, you may ask us to stop at any time. Essential account or course communications may still be necessary while you use our services.
Google Sign-In, Google Calendar and Google Meet
Digital Pakpattan offers optional Google Sign-In and a Google Calendar integration for scheduling online classes and generating Google Meet joining links.
Information We Access
When you use Google Sign-In, we receive the basic account information authorised by you, such as your Google account identifier, email address, name and profile picture, where provided. We use this information to authenticate you and support your Digital Pakpattan account. We do not receive your Google password.
When a teacher connects Google Calendar, we request permission to manage events on calendars they own. Our class-scheduling integration uses this permission to create, retrieve, update and cancel class-related events and generate Google Meet links. This may involve class titles, descriptions, dates, times, time zones, event identifiers and meeting links.
Google Sign-In alone does not authorise Calendar access. Teachers separately authorise the Calendar integration.
How We Use and Share This Information
We use Google account information to identify the connected user and provide the features they request. We use Calendar information to keep scheduled classes and their meeting links aligned with the Digital Pakpattan learning system.
Class information is transmitted to Google to create or update the associated Calendar event and meeting. Relevant class details and joining links may be displayed to the assigned teacher, authorised staff and students eligible to access that class.
Service providers supporting our hosting and infrastructure may process stored information as necessary to operate these features. We do not sell Google user data or use it for advertising, advertising profiles or training general-purpose AI or machine-learning models.
Digital Pakpattan’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements:
https://developers.google.com/terms/api-services-user-data-policy
Storage and Security
We store the connected account identifiers, authorisation credentials and class-event references needed to maintain the integration. Authorisation credentials may include access and refresh tokens, which allow authorised scheduling updates without requiring a new Google login for every class.
We use access controls and protective measures for this information. Calendar integration tokens are stored encrypted on our server. Tokens are not displayed to students or included in public class information.
Retention, Disconnection and Deletion
We retain connection information while it is needed to provide the authorised integration. Class-event references and related learning records may remain while needed for course administration, support, security or applicable recordkeeping obligations.
You may disconnect Google Calendar through the available Digital Pakpattan connection controls. You may also revoke access through your Google Account’s third-party connections settings:
https://myaccount.google.com/connections
Revoking access stops future authorised access but does not itself delete previously stored Digital Pakpattan records or existing events in your Google Calendar. Existing Calendar events may need to be deleted separately in Google Calendar.
To request deletion of Google-derived information held by Digital Pakpattan, email digitalpakpattan@gmail.com and identify the connected account. Do not send your password or authorisation tokens. We may verify your identity before processing the request.
We delete or anonymise information when it is no longer needed, unless retention is required for applicable legal, security or recordkeeping purposes. Where an exception applies to a deletion request, we will explain the relevant reason. Residual backup copies may remain until the applicable backup retention cycle ends.
Your Choice
Connecting Google Calendar is optional. If you decline or revoke the required permissions, automatic Calendar synchronisation and Google Meet link generation will not be available for that connection. Other available login and learning features remain subject to your account’s access permissions.
For questions about Google data or privacy requests, contact digitalpakpattan@gmail.com.
Google Workspace API Data and AI/ML Compliance
Digital Pakpattan operates DP AI using a self-hosted Ollama AI model deployed on a privately managed Contabo VPS.
AI model inference is performed locally on our server infrastructure rather than through an external AI model provider’s API.
Google Workspace API user data is not used to develop, train, or improve generalized or foundational AI/ML models.
Google Calendar integration is used to provide authorized educational features, including live class scheduling, Google Calendar event management, and Google Meet link generation.
Digital Pakpattan does not transfer Google Workspace API user data to third-party AI model providers for training or secondary purposes.
The use of information received from Google Workspace APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy and the Google Workspace API User Data and Developer Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
3. Student and Teacher Access
Authorised staff and assigned instructors may access information needed to manage courses and support students. This may include enrolment, attendance, progress and relevant payment-status information.
Account holders are responsible for keeping their login details confidential and informing us if they suspect unauthorised access.
4. Certificate Verification
Where public certificate verification is available, someone using a certificate number, verification link or QR code may be able to view information confirming the certificate’s authenticity. This may include the student’s name, course, certificate number, issue date and certificate status.
Verification information may be accessible to anyone who receives the relevant identifier or link. Contact us if you have concerns about information displayed in your certificate record.
5. Cookies and Similar Technologies
Our website may use cookies to support login sessions, remember preferences and enable website functionality.
If analytics, advertising tools or embedded content are enabled, their providers may also use cookies or similar technologies. Where required, we will request consent before using non-essential cookies.
You can manage cookies through your browser settings and any cookie controls provided on the website. Blocking essential cookies may affect login or other features.
6. When Information May Be Shared
Information may be shared when necessary with:
- Authorised staff and instructors delivering our services.
- Service providers supporting hosting, website maintenance, communications or payment processing, where used.
- Authorities or professional advisers when required by law or necessary to address fraud, security incidents or legal claims.
Some service providers may process information outside Pakistan, depending on their infrastructure and service arrangements.
7. External Services and Links
Our website may link to external websites or services, including WhatsApp and social media platforms. When you use these services, their own privacy policies apply.
Information you send directly through those platforms is also processed by the relevant provider.
8. Data Retention and Security
We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide services, maintain relevant records, resolve disputes and meet applicable obligations. Retention periods vary by the type and purpose of the information.
Certificate records may need to be retained longer to support future verification.
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information. However, no website, storage system or internet transmission can be guaranteed completely secure.
9. Your Choices and Requests
You may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, or to stop promotional messages.
We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request. Some information may need to be retained for legitimate recordkeeping or legal reasons. Available rights depend on applicable law.
10. Children and Young Learners
Where a student is under 18, a parent or guardian should be involved in registration and provide consent where required. If you believe a child has submitted personal information without appropriate permission, please contact us so we can review it.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when our services or information-handling practices change. The latest version will appear on this page with a revised date. Where required, we will provide additional notice of significant changes.

Google Account Integration, Calendar Access & Data Privacy
Digital Pakpattan (https://pakpattan.net) provides an AI-powered learning and community platform that allows teachers to manage courses, schedule live classes, and connect with students.
1. Google Account Authorization
Digital Pakpattan allows teachers to connect their Google accounts through Google OAuth 2.0. Google account authorization is voluntary and is used to enable classroom scheduling and Google Calendar integration.
Users must authorize the requested permissions before Digital Pakpattan accesses their Google Calendar data.
2. Google User Data We Access
Depending on the permissions granted, Digital Pakpattan may access:
- Basic Google account information, such as account name, email address, and profile information.
- Google Calendar event information on calendars owned by the authorized teacher, including event titles, descriptions, dates, times, meeting links, and relevant attendee details.
- Authorization tokens necessary to maintain the Google Calendar connection.
Digital Pakpattan does not request access to Gmail messages or Google Drive files as part of this Calendar integration.
3. How We Use Google User Data
Google user data is used to provide authorized classroom features, including:
- Connecting teacher Google accounts.
- Creating and managing live-class events in Google Calendar.
- Generating Google Meet links for scheduled lessons.
- Displaying class schedules and meeting details in relevant teacher and student dashboards.

Relevant class information, such as lesson titles, scheduled times, and Google Meet joining links, may be made available to enrolled students and authorized classroom participants.
Digital Pakpattan does not sell Google user data or share it with data brokers or advertising networks.
Google user data is not used for targeted advertising, credit assessment, or unrelated commercial profiling.
5. Data Security
Digital Pakpattan uses HTTPS and appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect Google user information.
Google authorization credentials and access tokens must be protected against unauthorized access and used only for authorized functionality.
Access to class-related Google data is restricted according to the relevant user roles and permissions.
6. Data Retention, Disconnection and Deletion
Digital Pakpattan retains Google-related information only for as long as necessary to provide authorized classroom features, satisfy legitimate operational requirements, or comply with applicable law.
Teachers may revoke Google access through their Google Account permissions at:
Teachers may also request disconnection of their Google integration and deletion of Google-related data held by Digital Pakpattan by contacting the platform’s support team.
Revoking Google access prevents further authorized API access, but does not automatically delete previously created Google Calendar events or all information previously stored by Digital Pakpattan.
Data deletion requests are handled in accordance with our applicable retention and deletion practices.
7. Google API Services User Data Policy and Limited Use
The use of information received from Google Workspace APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy and Google Workspace User Data and Developer Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
Digital Pakpattan does not use raw, aggregated, anonymized, or derived Google Workspace API user data to develop, train, or improve generalized AI or machine learning models.
Google Workspace user data is not transferred to third-party AI services for the purpose of training their models.
Google API data is processed only for permitted, authorized, user-facing functionality and other uses expressly allowed under the applicable Google policies.
8. User Control and Consent
Users can choose whether to connect their Google accounts.
Digital Pakpattan requests Google permissions only for the functionality required by its authorized services.
