Privacy Policy
This website is run by Bikash Bhandari (ACCA member, senior accountant and lecturer in Nepal). The site provides free accounting tools, an ACCA FA Study Hub, and practical notes for students and professional accountants. The Study Hub and tools are intended to stay free for learners. This policy explains what information the site may collect and how it is used.
1. Who this policy covers
It applies when you visit bikasb.com.np, use calculators or study pages, read articles, or contact us (for example through the contact form or email).
2. Information we may collect
Information you give us
- Name, email address, and message content if you use the contact or consultation form
- Any details you voluntarily send by email to iambikashbhandari@gmail.com
Information collected automatically
- Standard server and security logs (for example IP address, browser type, pages visited, approximate time of visit)
- Basic analytics data if analytics tools are enabled (to understand which pages are useful)
- Theme preference (light/dark) stored in your browser’s local storage so the site remembers your choice
Calculator inputs (loan amounts, asset costs, receivables figures, and similar) are processed in your browser for the calculation. They are not stored by us as a personal account profile unless you separately send them by email or form.
3. How we use information
- To reply to enquiries and consultation requests
- To improve tools, study pages, and site performance
- To keep the site secure and prevent abuse
- To understand aggregate traffic (which topics students use most)
We do not sell your personal information.
4. Cookies and similar technologies
The site may use cookies or local storage for essential functions (such as remembering dark mode) and, if enabled later, for analytics or advertising.
Advertising (including Google AdSense): If third-party advertising is enabled in the future, advertising partners such as Google may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites. You can learn more about how Google uses data in advertising in Google’s published policies, and you may control ads personalisation through Google’s ad settings.
Essential cookies are needed for basic site function. You can block cookies in your browser settings; some features may then work less smoothly.
5. Third-party services
Depending on configuration, the site may use third parties such as:
- Hosting and content delivery (for example Netlify, Cloudflare)
- Form handling (for example Formspree or similar) for contact messages
- Font or script providers (for example Google Fonts)
- Analytics or advertising partners if enabled later
Those services process data under their own privacy policies.
6. Data retention
Contact emails and form messages are kept only as long as needed to respond and manage follow-up, unless a longer period is required for legitimate business or legal reasons. Browser local storage stays on your device until you clear it.
7. Your choices
- You may email us to ask what personal data we hold about you from contact enquiries, or to request correction or deletion where applicable
- You may stop using the site at any time
- You may disable cookies in your browser
8. Children
The site is aimed at adult learners and professionals. It is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
9. Changes
This policy may be updated when the site adds features (for example analytics or ads). The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we revise it.
