Privacy Policy
- You don't need an account. We don't ask for your name, email or phone number.
- Your study progress, answers, settings and test date stay on your device. We don't have a server that receives them.
- The free version shows ads from Google AdMob, which may use your device's advertising ID. You can say no to personalized ads.
- Purchases are handled by Apple or Google, with RevenueCat checking your Premium status. We never see your card details.
- Premium removes all ads.
1. Who we are
CDL Prep (the "App") is made by Abross IT ("we", "us"). If you have any question about this policy or your data, email us at info@abrossit.com.
2. Information that stays on your device
To work offline, the App stores the following only on your phone or tablet:
- Your answers, scores, mock exam results, saved questions and study streaks
- Your settings: languages, CDL class, endorsements, test date, daily goal, text size, voice and reminder time
- Whether you have Premium (a cached copy, so it works without signal)
We do not receive, see or back up this information. You can erase it at any time in Profile → Settings → Reset progress, or by deleting the App. If you use Export progress, the App creates a file and you choose where to send it. We never receive it unless you send it to us.
Reminders are scheduled on your device and do not come from a server. Read aloud uses your device's built-in text-to-speech voices.
3. Information collected by services we use
The App includes the services below. They collect information directly from your device under their own privacy policies.
| Service | What it collects | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Google AdMob (free version only) | Advertising ID (Android) or IDFA (iOS, only if you allow tracking), IP address, approximate location derived from IP, device and OS type, app version, and ad views and taps | To show ads, limit how often you see them, measure ads and prevent fraud. Ads pay for the free version. |
| Google User Messaging Platform | Your consent choices, and device and region information | To ask for and remember your privacy choices where the law requires it (for example the EEA, UK and some US states) |
| RevenueCat | A random app user ID (not your name or email), your purchases and subscription status, device and OS type, app version, country and IP address | To confirm Premium and restore purchases |
| Apple App Store / Google Play | Payment and account details you give them | To process purchases. We never receive your card number. |
Their privacy policies: Google (including how Google uses information from apps), RevenueCat, Apple.
4. Ads and tracking
- iPhone and iPad: the App asks for permission to track before using your advertising identifier. If you tap "Ask App Not to Track", you will still see ads, but they won't be personalized using that identifier. You can change this later in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
- Android: you can delete or reset your advertising ID in Settings → Privacy → Ads (the exact menu depends on the device).
- EEA, UK and some US states: a consent form appears before personalized ads are shown. You can change your choice at any time in Profile → Settings → Ad privacy choices.
- Premium removes all ads. No ads are loaded and the tracking prompt is not shown to Premium users.
We do not sell your personal information for money. Some US state laws treat personalized advertising as "sharing" or "targeted advertising". You can opt out of that using the choices above.
5. When you contact us
If you report a question or email us for support, we receive your email address and anything you include. Question reports may include the question ID and the app version. We use this only to reply and to fix content. We keep it only as long as we need it, and you can ask us to delete it.
6. Children
The App is for adults preparing for a commercial driver's license and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA and UK). If you believe a child has used the App and shared personal information, contact us and we will help remove it.
7. How long information is kept
Information on your device stays until you reset it or delete the App. The services above keep information for the periods described in their own policies. Emails you send us are deleted when they are no longer needed.
8. Security
Your study data never leaves your device unless you export it. The services we use send data over encrypted connections. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, but we choose established providers and collect as little as possible.
9. International users
The services listed above may process information in the United States and other countries. Where required, they use legal safeguards such as standard contractual clauses for these transfers.
10. Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR, UK GDPR, or California and other US state laws), you may have the right to:
- access, correct or delete personal information
- object to or restrict processing, and withdraw consent at any time
- opt out of targeted advertising or "sharing"
- complain to your local data protection authority
Because we don't hold an account or study data about you, most requests are fastest through the in-app controls above. For anything else, email info@abrossit.com and we will reply within 30 days. We will not treat you differently for using these rights.
11. Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we will update the date at the top. For important changes, we will also let you know in the App.
