Privacy Policy
Last updated: 30.10.2026
Who we are
This website, youbearing.com ("Bearing", "we", "us"), is operated by FOP Nazar Mykhalevych, registered at O. Tumanyana 15A, Kyiv 01001, Ukraine.
For any privacy question or to exercise your rights, contact us at support@youbearing.com.
We are the data controller for the personal data described below.
What we collect
- Your email address — to create your account and send you secure sign-in links.
- Your assessment answers and results — the responses you give during the test and the profile we generate from them.
- Your level tests, if you take them. The field you are tested in (and, if you pick it yourself in Settings, that choice), the answer you give to each question, when you took the test, your score and level, and the topics where you have gaps. We record your level at the start of the plan and after the retake in week 12.
- Technical data — basic server logs (IP address, browser type, timestamps) generated automatically when you use the site, kept for security and troubleshooting.
- A session cookie — a single essential cookie that keeps you signed in. We do not use advertising or third-party tracking cookies.
Payments
Payments and subscriptions are handled by Paddle.com Market Limited ("Paddle"), which acts as the Merchant of Record — the seller of record for your purchase. For the payment transaction, Paddle is an independent data controller and collects and processes your payment details, such as card and billing information, under its own privacy policy. We never receive or store your card details; from Paddle we receive only your subscription status and the email address used for the purchase.
Why we use it, and our legal basis (GDPR Art. 6)
- To provide the service you asked for — deliver your assessment and manage your account and subscription.
- To score your level test, to let you pause and continue later, to give you different questions in the retake, to show you the topics to work on, and to print your starting level and your week-12 level on your completion certificate. Your answers and your level are shown only to you, and we do not pass them to any third party. Legal basis: performance of our contract with you (GDPR Art. 6(1)(b)).
- To keep the service secure and prevent fraud/abuse.
- To comply with our legal and tax obligations.
How long we keep it
- Account and assessment data, including your level tests and levels: kept while your account is active and for 6 months afterward, then deleted; sooner on request.
- Billing records: as required by applicable tax/accounting law.
International data transfers
Some of the providers we rely on process data outside the European Economic Area (EEA):
- Paddle (payments) — United Kingdom;
- Resend (delivery of transactional emails, such as your sign-in links) — United States;
- our hosting provider (website hosting and server logs).
Where your data is transferred outside the EU/EEA, this takes place on the basis of an adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards (such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses), as required by the GDPR. Contact us at support@youbearing.com for more information about these safeguards.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to our processing of your data, and to data portability. To exercise any of these, email support@youbearing.com.
Changes
We may update this policy. Material changes will be posted here with a new "last updated" date.
