Privacy Policy
Effective: August 24, 2026 · Last updated: August 24, 2026
1. Who we are
Aprobify ("we", "us") provides a mobile study app that helps people prepare for the California DMV written knowledge test. This policy explains what personal information the app and this website collect, why, who we share it with, and the rights you have. You can reach us at hola@aprobify.es for anything in this policy. Aprobify is an independent study app and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the California Department of Motor Vehicles.
2. Information we collect
Account information: when you sign in with Google or Apple we receive your name, email address and profile picture. If you use Sign in with Apple and choose to hide your email, we only ever see Apple's relay address. Study data: the tests you take, your answers, scores, saved and failed questions, study streaks and the license you are preparing for. Purchase information: whether you hold an active subscription, which plan, and its renewal or expiry date. We never see or store your card details — payments are handled entirely by Apple or Google. Technical and diagnostic data: device model, operating system version, app version, language, crash reports and performance traces. Consent records: your choices about analytics and advertising, together with the app version, date and IP address at the time you made them, so we can demonstrate what you agreed to. Communications: messages you send us by email or through in-app support.
3. Analytics and attribution
If you consent, we use product analytics (PostHog) to understand how the app is used — screens visited, features used, and anonymised session recordings of app screens — and attribution tools (Tenjin) to understand which marketing channel a download came from. On iOS these tools may access your device's advertising identifier (IDFA), and iOS will ask for your permission separately through Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt before that happens. If you decline analytics consent, or decline the tracking prompt, these tools operate without device identifiers or do not run at all. You can change your mind at any time in the app's settings.
4. How we use your information
We use your information to: create and secure your account; save your study progress across devices and sessions; deliver the content and features included in your subscription; process and validate purchases and restore them when you reinstall; diagnose crashes and improve performance; understand which parts of the app help people pass and which do not; send you service messages such as important changes to the app; and send you marketing emails only if you explicitly opted in, which you can withdraw at any time using the unsubscribe link in any email.
5. Legal bases and your choices
We only collect what the app needs to work. Account and study data are necessary to provide the service you asked for. Analytics, session recording and advertising identifiers are optional and run only with your consent. Marketing email requires a separate, explicit opt-in. Declining optional processing does not limit your access to the app or to any feature you have paid for.
6. Who we share information with
We do not sell your personal information for money. We share it only with service providers who process it on our behalf under contract: Google LLC (Firebase — authentication, database, crash reporting, performance monitoring and file storage), RevenueCat, Inc. (subscription management), Apple Inc. and Google LLC (payment processing and receipt validation), PostHog, Inc. (product analytics, only with your consent), and Tenjin, Inc. (install attribution, only with your consent). Attribution involves passing limited device and campaign information to advertising platforms so a download can be matched to the campaign that produced it. Under California law this may be treated as "sharing" personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, so we treat it that way and it never happens without your consent. We may also disclose information where required by law or valid legal process.
7. How long we keep it
We keep your account and study data for as long as your account exists. If you delete your account, we delete the associated personal data within 30 days, except where we are legally required to keep records longer, such as transaction records for tax purposes. Crash reports and aggregated, de-identified usage statistics may be retained indefinitely, as they can no longer be linked to you. Consent records are kept for as long as needed to demonstrate compliance.
8. Your California privacy rights (CCPA/CPRA)
If you are a California resident, you have the right to: know what personal information we collect, use and disclose about you, and to request a copy of it; correct inaccurate personal information; delete your personal information, subject to legal exceptions; opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising — in our app, this is the analytics and attribution consent described in section 3, which is off unless you turn it on; limit the use of sensitive personal information, though we do not collect or use sensitive personal information as that term is defined by the CPRA; and not be discriminated against for exercising any of these rights. We will never deny you service, charge you a different price, or give you a lower quality experience for exercising them.
9. How to exercise your rights
Email hola@aprobify.es with the email address associated with your account and tell us what you would like to do. We will verify your identity by confirming control of that email address, and we may ask for additional information if the request concerns sensitive actions such as deletion. We respond within 45 days and will tell you if we need a 45-day extension. You may use an authorized agent, in which case we will ask for written proof of their authority. You can also delete your account directly from the app's profile screen at any time, which triggers the deletion described in section 7.
10. Minors
Aprobify is not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you are between 13 and 18, you may use the app only with the involvement of a parent or legal guardian, and any purchase must be made or authorized by them. We do not sell or share the personal information of consumers we know to be under 16. If you believe a child under 13 has given us personal information, email hola@aprobify.es and we will delete it.
11. Security
Data is transmitted over encrypted connections and stored on Google Cloud infrastructure with access restricted to what is needed to operate the service. No system is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we will notify you and the relevant authorities as required by law if a breach affects your personal information.
12. International transfers
Our service providers process data in the United States and other countries. If you use the app from outside the United States, your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States, where data protection law may differ from that of your own country.
13. This website
This website does not use analytics, advertising or any other non-essential cookies, and therefore shows no cookie banner. Our hosting provider keeps standard server logs, including IP addresses, for security and diagnostics. Nothing on this site tracks you across other websites.
14. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the app changes or the law does. When we do, we will update the "last updated" date at the top of this page, and for material changes we will notify you in the app or by email before they take effect. Continuing to use Aprobify after a change means you accept the updated policy.
15. Contact
Questions, requests or complaints about this policy or about how we handle your information: hola@aprobify.es. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may contact the California Attorney General's office.
