Privacy Policy

Google Analytics

Besides Cloudflare Web Analytics, this site uses Google Analytics, a service from Google, with Google Signals turned on. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect statistics about how visitors use the site, such as which pages are viewed, the type of device and the approximate location. With Google Signals, Google also adds aggregated information such as interests and age groups, taken from visitors who are signed in to a Google account and have allowed personalized ads. We see only these aggregated statistics, never information that identifies you. You can read how Google uses this data in Google's Privacy Policy. To opt out, turn off personalized ads in Google's My Ad Center (formerly adssettings.google.com), or install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

Advertising

This site uses Google AdSense to show ads that help cover running costs:

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites.
• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
• You can opt out of personalized advertising in Google's Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info, or in Europe at www.youronlinechoices.eu.
• Google and its ad partners may collect information such as cookies, web beacons, IP addresses and device identifiers. You can read how Google uses information from sites that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
• Other ad technology companies that work with Google may also serve or measure ads; visitors in Europe can see each of them, and refuse them, under "Manage options" in the consent message.
• Visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland will be asked for consent through a Google-certified consent tool before personalized ads are shown, and can change their choice at any time with the "Privacy and cookie settings" link that appears on pages with ads. Visitors in U.S. states with privacy laws will be able to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of their personal information for targeted advertising through the privacy message shown on this site.

This site's fonts are stored on its own server, so loading them doesn't connect your browser to Google or to any other third party.

The app for Android, iPhone and iPad

This policy also covers the "Driving Test Practice" app for Android phones and tablets and for iPhone and iPad (Android package name and iOS bundle ID com.drivingtestpractice.app), made by the same independent developer as this website. The app works like the website: you do not need an account, and it never asks for your name, email address, location, contacts, photos, camera or microphone.

• Questions and pictures: the app downloads them from this website over a secure (HTTPS) connection. As with any website visit, Cloudflare, which delivers the files, receives your IP address to send them to you.
• What stays on your device: your language, your state, your settings, your scores, missed and saved questions, flashcards, exam simulator results, your daily goal, streak and badges, and the counters that space out ads and the rating request are saved only in the app's own storage on your phone or tablet. They are never sent to us. If you back up your device (to your Google account on Android, or to iCloud or a computer on iPhone and iPad), the backup may include them. "Reset my progress" in the app's Settings deletes your scores, missed and saved questions, flashcards and exam simulator results for the state you are studying; deleting the app deletes everything.
• Ads: the app shows ads from Google AdMob (the Google Mobile Ads SDK) to pay for its running costs. Google and its ad partners may collect your device's advertising identifier (the Advertising ID on Android; the IDFA on iPhone and iPad, only if you allow the app to track) or identifiers limited to this app or developer (such as the App Set ID on Android, and on iPhone and iPad Google's "publisher first-party ID", which the app leaves on and which helps show more relevant ads using data from this app), your IP address and the approximate location derived from it, information about your device and the app, the ads you see, your interactions with the app and its ads (such as app launches, taps and video views), and crash and performance information. They use it to show and measure ads, for analytics and diagnostics, to prevent fraud, and to personalize ads when you allow it. On iPhone and iPad, Apple's SKAdNetwork lets advertisers count app installs that came from an ad without identifying you. The ads are limited to Google's PG rating or lower (content for most audiences, with parental guidance). Google, its ad partners and Cloudflare handle this information under their own privacy policies and their terms with us or with Google, which require them to protect it at least as well as this policy does. You can read how Google uses it at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
• Your choices: in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, the app asks for your consent through Google's consent tool before personalized ads are shown. Google's advertising in the app may count as "sharing" (and in some states as a "sale") of personal information under US state privacy laws; where those laws apply, you can opt out of it. Where these laws apply, the app's Settings has a "Privacy settings (ads)" row, where you can make or change these choices at any time. On iPhone and iPad, the app asks your permission to track, in Apple's App Tracking Transparency window, and Google can use your device's advertising identifier only if you allow it; if you answer no, or are never asked, the app works exactly the same and only the ads are less personalized. You can change that answer at any time: "Tracking permission (Settings)" in the app's Settings opens the app's page in your device's Settings, or go to Settings, then Privacy & Security, then Tracking. On Android you can also delete or reset your Advertising ID, or turn off ad personalization, in your phone's settings (Google, then Ads).
• Europe (EEA, UK and Switzerland): the app is made by the developer named on our About page. Ads that use identifiers or cookies rely on the consent you give in Google's consent message, which you can withdraw at any time under "Privacy settings (ads)"; an email you send us is used on the basis of our legitimate interest in answering it. You have the rights described under "Your privacy rights" above, and you may complain to your local data protection authority.
• Reporting a problem or an ad: "Report a problem" and "Report an ad" open your own email app with a short subject filled in (the app's language and, for a question, its number and state). Only if you send that email do we receive your email address, your message and that subject; we use them only to answer you, to fix the question or to block the ad, and we delete the email when it is no longer needed for that.
• Ratings: after a few finished quizzes, the app may ask the App Store or Google Play to show its rating window. Your rating and review go to Apple or Google under their terms; the app does not see them.
• Keeping and deleting data: the app's data stays on your device until you delete the app ("Reset my progress" deletes one state's progress sooner). On our side we keep nothing about you except an email you choose to send us; to have it deleted, write to us. Google keeps the information it holds for ads for the periods described at policies.google.com/technologies/retention; to limit or delete it, use the choices above and the controls described in Google's privacy policy.

The app is meant for people preparing for a driver's license knowledge test and is not directed at children under 13. For any privacy question or request about the app, contact us.
