Privacy Policy

The free test needs no name and no email. If you buy, we keep your email, your purchase and your practice history.

Last updated October 13, 2026

Short version

• The free test works without an account. We record the answers under a random ID, with no name and no email.
• If you buy, we get your email address from Paddle and keep your practice history under it. We never see your card.
• We set no advertising cookies and we do not sell personal data.
• To see or delete your data, write to [email protected].

1. Who is responsible

TimedPrep (timedprep.com) is operated by a sole proprietor based in Ukraine, who decides how the data described here is used. Contact: [email protected].

2. What we collect

When you take a free test (no account)

For each test attempt we store:

• a random anonymous ID. It lives in your browser's local storage (it is not a cookie) and contains no name or email;
• the answers you gave, whether each was right or wrong, and the time you spent on each question;
• how the attempt ended (time ran out, you submitted it, or you left);
• your device type (mobile or desktop) and the width of your browser window;
• your country, as a two-letter code that our hosting provider Cloudflare attaches to each request. We do not store your IP address;
• your browser language;
• where the visit came from: a single word for the source (for example "google"), the campaign and keyword tags on an ad's link, and the ad's click ID if the link carried one.

We use this to score your test, to show you how your result compares with others, to calibrate how hard each question is, and to measure which ads work.

We may show aggregate statistics on the site, for example how a score ranks among everyone who took a test, or how many tests were completed. We never show data about an individual.

Visit and error log

So that a broken page is noticed by us before it costs you a test, the site keeps a short technical log under the same anonymous ID: the first page of a visit with where the visit came from (as described above), which page or screen was opened, error messages produced by our own code, and steps of the payment window (opened, closed, completed, or the payment provider's error text). Each entry also holds your country code, the width of your window and the name and version of your browser and system (for example "Chrome 141 / Android"), not the full browser string. For a buyer the entries are filed under a one-way code derived from the account, never under the email address. Entries are deleted after 90 days.

Reports and requests you send us

If you use the "Something off in this question?" link in your dashboard, we store which question it was, the test and attempt it belonged to, the anonymous ID and the note you typed, if any. If you tell us which test you would like us to add, or what your invitation calls a test, we store that choice or text with the anonymous ID, the country code and the source of the visit. Do not put personal details in these notes: they are read by us to fix questions and to decide what to build.

Anonymous counters

We count a few moments on the site, such as a visit arriving, a test starting or finishing, the pricing section being seen, or a purchase completing. Each count holds only the day, the event, the source and the country. The counters contain no ID and cannot be traced back to a person.

When you buy

• Your email address, which Paddle passes to us after payment. We use it to open your access, to email your 6-digit sign-in codes, and to answer you.
• What you bought and when, with the Paddle transaction number.
• Your practice progress and test history, tied to your account: the same per-question details as for a free test, plus your drills, mistake notebook, levels and study plan.
• A support log of the paid area: which screens you opened, which questions were shown (by their number), page loads, and any error the app ran into. We use it only to find and fix problems. It is deleted automatically after 90 days.

We send only emails connected to your purchase or your requests: sign-in codes, access details, a discount code if we offer you one, and support replies.

3. What we do not collect

We never see or store your card number or other payment details. Payments are processed by Paddle.com, our Merchant of Record. We do not ask for your name, postal address, employer, résumé or identity documents, and the free test never asks for an email address.

The site is meant for adults applying for jobs. It is not directed at children under 16.

4. Why we use it

To give you the access you paid for, score your tests and show your progress, answer support requests, improve the questions, measure our advertising, and meet our tax and accounting obligations.

Where the law asks for a legal basis: we process buyers' data to perform our contract with you, accounting records to meet legal obligations, and free-test records and counters on the basis of our legitimate interest in running and improving the service.

5. What is stored in your browser

We use your browser's local storage, not cookies, for:

• an unfinished test, so a page reload does not lose it;
• your results, so you can see them again;
• the anonymous ID described above;
• your sign-in token, if you are a buyer, so you stay signed in;
• the source of your visit (for example "google"), kept for 30 days so that a later purchase is counted for the right channel.

You can remove all of it at any time by clearing the site data for timedprep.com in your browser settings. Clearing it also breaks the link between you and your past free-test attempts: after that, nobody, including us, can tell which attempts were yours.

Cookies and advertising. We set no advertising cookies. If we measure Google Ads conversions, Google's tag may set its own first-party cookie on timedprep.com so that a purchase can be attributed to an ad click. We do not send your email address, answers or scores to Google. You can refuse this cookie by blocking cookies for timedprep.com in your browser settings, and you can control ad personalization in Google's ad settings. The site works the same either way.

6. Who else processes it

• Paddle.com: payment, invoicing, tax and refunds (Merchant of Record).
• Cloudflare: website hosting, security, and storage of test, account and progress data. As the host, Cloudflare handles your IP address in order to deliver the pages.
• Resend: delivery of transactional email (sign-in codes, access details).

We do not sell personal data and we do not give your email address, answers or scores to advertisers. These providers may process data in countries other than your own, including the United States.

7. How long we keep it

• Test attempt records are kept without identity for as long as they are useful for calibrating questions and comparing scores.
• Account data (email, purchase, practice history) is kept for your access period and afterward for as long as we need it for accounting and to handle payment disputes.
• The support log is kept for 90 days.
• Payment records are kept by Paddle for as long as tax law requires.

You can ask us to delete your account data sooner. When we delete an account, your past attempts stay only as anonymous records with no link to your email.

8. Your rights

Write to [email protected] to get a copy of your data, correct it, or have it deleted. We respond within 30 days. If you are in the EU, the UK or California you have rights under the GDPR, the UK GDPR or the CCPA, including the right to object and the right to complain to your data protection authority; we apply the same standard to everyone, wherever you live.

9. Changes

If we change what we collect, this page is updated first, with a new "last updated" date. See also our Terms of Service and Refund Policy.
