5. User Conduct and Responsibilities
As a user of GK Quiz Academy, you agree to assume full responsibility for all activities that occur under your identity while accessing the site and to adhere to a standard of conduct that ensures a positive and safe environment for all visitors. The following activities are strictly prohibited under this user agreement:
-
Identity Misrepresentation: You shall not impersonate any person or entity, including any employee or representative of GK Quiz Academy, or falsely state or otherwise misrepresent your affiliation with a person or entity. This includes forging headers or manipulating identifiers in order to disguise the origin of any content transmitted through the website, as maintaining a truthful and transparent online identity is essential for the community's trust and integrity.
-
Malicious Activity: You are prohibited from uploading, posting, or transmitting any material that contains software viruses, corrupted data, or any other computer code, files, or programs designed to interrupt, destroy, or limit the functionality of any computer software or hardware or telecommunications equipment. Any attempt to gain unauthorized access to our systems, or to circumvent any technological security measure implemented by GK Quiz Academy, is strictly forbidden and subject to immediate legal action.
-
Harassment and Defamation: You must not engage in any conduct that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortious, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, libelous, invasive of another's privacy, hateful, or racially, ethnically, or otherwise objectionable.

6. No User Accounts or Registration Policy
GK Quiz Academy operates primarily as an educational blog platform and has adopted a firm No User Accounts or Registration Policy. We do not offer or require the creation of personal user accounts, profiles, or registration features for general access to content. This policy is designed to maximize user privacy and minimize the burden of data protection compliance related to personally identifiable information.
-
No Personal Data Storage: Since we do not facilitate user registration, we intentionally avoid collecting or storing personal data associated with long-term user accounts, such as passwords, demographic information, or extensive usage history linked to an individual profile. The only personal identifiers processed are those submitted voluntarily for comments (name/email, which may be anonymized) or contact forms, strictly limiting our data footprint and reducing the security risks typically associated with holding large databases of user credentials.
-
Comment Anonymity and Moderation: While users can submit comments, these submissions do not create a persistent account or profile. Comment data is stored primarily for moderation and spam prevention. Users are not authenticated through a login process, and we recommend users utilize non-identifiable or placeholder names in comments if they wish to maintain maximum privacy while still engaging with the discussion, as all contributions are treated as individual, one-off submissions not tied to an enduring membership.
-
Service Limitation: Due to the absence of a registration mechanism, we cannot offer personalized features typically associated with user accounts, such as saved settings, purchase history, personalized content feeds, or the ability to manage personal data through a dedicated dashboard. Users acknowledge and accept this limitation, understanding that the focus of GK Quiz Academy is strictly on providing publicly accessible, informative, and educational content without the complexity of member services.
-
Communication Reliance: All necessary communications, support requests, or privacy rights exercises (such as deletion requests) must be handled through the designated email or contact forms provided in Section 17, as there is no central user control panel for managing interactions or personal data. This places the responsibility on the user to initiate contact for any necessary administrative actions related to their limited, non-account-based data submissions (e.g., comments or contact form entries).
7. Third-Party Links and External Websites
GK Quiz Academy may provide links to third-party websites or resources. These links are provided for your convenience and for informational purposes only.

9. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall GK Quiz Academy, nor its directors, employees, partners, agents, suppliers, or affiliates, be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including without limitation, loss of profits, data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses, resulting from (i) your access to or use of or inability to access or use the website; (ii) any conduct or content of any third party on the website; (iii) any content obtained from the website; and (iv) unauthorized access, use, or alteration of your transmissions or content, whether based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence) or any other legal theory, whether or not we have been informed of the possibility of such damage.
