1. Overview
We operate a digital learning marketplace. Protecting learner and creator accounts, payment flows, and course access is a continuous operational priority. This page summarizes practices that matter for users; it is not a substitute for our Privacy Policy.
2. Accounts and access
- Passwords are stored using industry-standard one-way hashing.
- Session tokens are transmitted over HTTPS only.
- Course watch access is enforced server-side for entitled accounts; public catalog pages do not expose private lesson video.
3. Payments
Card payments are processed by Stripe. SmartKourse does not store full payment card numbers on our servers. See the Marketplace Disclosure and Payout Disclosure for how money moves on the platform.
4. Data and infrastructure
Application hosting, database, and file storage run on major cloud providers with TLS in transit. More detail on what we collect and why is in the Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.
5. Reporting a vulnerability
If you believe you have found a security issue, email Contact form on this website (email address pending owner configuration) with enough detail for us to reproduce the problem. Please do not publicly disclose an issue until we have had a reasonable chance to investigate and remediate.
