Privacy Policy

1. Overview

Life in the UK Test Prep is an educational app designed to help users study for the Life in the UK test. The app provides study materials, practice questions, test results, and progress tracking.

We aim to collect as little information as possible. Most learning data in the app is stored locally on your device.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information stored locally on your device

Based on the current app implementation, the app stores study-related data locally on your device using local app storage such as SharedPreferences. This may include:

• study progress and completed chapters
• practice test results and scores
• test history
• streak information
• wrong question IDs used to support review and mistakes-only study flows
• overall performance metrics such as total answered questions, correct answers, and total study time

This information is used to make the app function properly for you and is not intended to identify you personally.

2.2 Advertising data

The app includes the Google Mobile Ads SDK and may display ads through Google AdMob. When ads are enabled, Google and its partners may automatically collect certain data to provide, personalize, measure, and improve advertising services.

Depending on your region, app setup, and consent choices, this may include identifiers and technical information such as:

• advertising ID or similar device identifiers
• IP address
• device information
• app interaction and ad performance information
• diagnostic information

We do not directly control the data collection practices of Google AdMob. Please review Google's privacy information for details: https://policies.google.com/privacy

2.3 Notifications permission

The app declares the Android notification permission. If notifications are used in your installed version of the app, you can allow or deny that permission through your device settings.

We do not use this permission to read your personal messages, contacts, or content from other apps.

3. Information We Do Not Intentionally Collect

Based on the current source code reviewed for this app, we do not intentionally collect or request:

• your name, email address, or phone number
• precise location data
• contacts, photos, camera input, microphone recordings, or SMS content
• payment card information

4. How We Use Information

We use information handled by the app to:

• save your learning progress
• show your practice history and performance statistics
• improve app stability and functionality
• display and manage advertisements through AdMob, if enabled

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information.

The app may share limited technical or advertising-related data with third-party service providers only to the extent needed to operate services integrated into the app, such as Google AdMob.

6. Data Retention

Progress data stored locally remains on your device until you clear the app's storage, uninstall the app, or otherwise remove it.

Third-party service providers such as Google AdMob may retain data according to their own policies.

7. Children's Privacy

This app is an educational product and is not specifically directed to children under the age required by applicable law in your region for independent consent to data processing. If you believe personal information has been provided inappropriately, please contact us.

• You can clear app data or uninstall the app to remove locally stored progress information from your device.
• You can manage notification permission in your Android device settings.
• You can review Google's tools and settings related to advertising through your Google account and device settings where available.

9. Third-Party Services

The app may use third-party services such as:

• Google AdMob
• Google Play services

These third parties may process data according to their own privacy policies.

10. Security

We take reasonable steps to avoid unnecessary data collection. However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the effective date on this page.
