This policy explains what happens to your information when you use www.youruklifetest.co.uk (“the site”). The site is operated by Risten Global Ltd, a company registered in the United Kingdom (“we”, “us”).
1. Information we do not collect
You do not need to register or log in. We do not ask for, store or sell your name, address, immigration details, payment details or test answers on our servers.
2. Progress stored on your device
To show your scores, weak topics and mistakes, the site uses your browser’s local storage. This data:
- stays on your device and is not sent to us or anyone else;
- is used only to power features such as progress tracking, the Mistake Bank and weak-topic suggestions;
- can be deleted at any time by clearing your browser’s site data.
Because it is stored per browser, your progress will not appear on a different device or browser.
3. Advertising and cookies
We display advertising provided by Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies, device identifiers and similar technologies to show ads, limit how often you see an ad, and measure ad performance. They may use information about your visits to this and other websites to show ads that are relevant to you.
- When you first visit, a banner lets you Accept all or Reject non-essential cookies. Advertising and analytics services are only loaded if you accept. If you reject them, the site works exactly the same.
- Your cookie choice is remembered in your browser’s local storage. You can reset it at any time by clearing this site’s data in your browser.
- You can manage or turn off personalised advertising at Google Ad Settings.
- You can opt out of many third-party advertising cookies at aboutads.info or youronlinechoices.com.
- To learn how Google uses data from sites that use its services, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
We do not control the cookies set by advertisers, and this policy does not cover their practices. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, although the site’s practice tests will continue to work.
4. Technical data and hosting
Like most websites, the companies that host and deliver the site (our hosting and network providers) may automatically process technical information such as your IP address, browser type and the pages requested. This is used to deliver the site securely, prevent abuse and keep it running. We do not use it to identify you personally.
5. If you contact us
If you email us, we will use your email address and message only to reply and to improve the site. We keep correspondence only as long as needed and do not share it with third parties for marketing.
6. Your rights
Under UK data protection law you have rights over personal data held about you, including access, correction and deletion. Since we hold very little personal data, these requests mostly relate to emails you have sent us. To make a request, contact us using the details on our Contact page. If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.
7. Children
The site is intended for adults preparing for the Life in the UK Test and is not directed at children under 13.
8. External links
The site may link to other websites, including official GOV.UK pages. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it was last changed.
