1. Overview & Commitment to Student Privacy
Synapse Technology and Research Centre is committed to building high-quality, privacy-respecting educational software for students. iTest - Mock Test & Exam Prep is an interactive testing and learning application created to help aspirants prepare effectively for competitive examinations—including JEE, NEET, SSC, Banking, UPSC, Railway, State PSC—as well as school board examinations with NCERT digital textbooks, previous year papers (PYQs), and mock test series.
We believe that education must be free from commercial surveillance. Therefore, iTest operates on an offline-first, local-privacy architecture. The application functions without forcing students to create an account, enter a phone number, or disclose personal identity.

iTest - Mock Test & Exam Prep does not collect, record, harvest, transmit, or monetize any Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from students, educators, or parents.

3. What Data Is Stored & How It Stays 100% on Your Device
To deliver personalized learning features, all progress and preferences are saved exclusively inside the device's sandboxed local storage using Android's native SharedPreferences and application file directory:
An optional display name (defaults to "Student") and your chosen exam category (e.g. JEE, NEET, SSC) saved locally so the app remembers your preferred dashboard stream.
Your test results, selected answers, score percentage, subject accuracy charts, and time spent per question are kept on your phone to calculate your personal performance trends.
Questions you bookmark for later revision and your daily study streak counter are stored locally to help build consistent study habits.
When you choose to download an NCERT chapter or previous year test paper, the PDF file is cached in the application's sandboxed storage for offline access.
