Cookie Policy
Effective date: 25 July 2026 · Last updated: 25 July 2026
This policy explains the cookies and similar technologies used on this site, what they do, and how you can control them.
The important part in one line: no advertising cookies exist on this site at all, and analytics will not run unless you switch it on. Rejecting it restricts nothing, and every mock test and question bank works exactly the same either way.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. They let a site remember things between page views, and they let services such as analytics recognise a browser over time.
Similar technologies such as local storage and tracking pixels do comparable jobs and are covered by this policy too. Where we say cookies below, we mean all of these.
2. Strictly necessary storage
These are required for the site to function and are used without consent, as the law permits. Both are first-party browser storage, so nothing is transmitted to us or to anyone else.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration | Party |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| cscs-cookie-consent | This site | Stores your cookie choice so you are not asked on every page. Local storage, not a cookie sent to a server. | Until you clear it or change your choice | First party |
| Mock test session state | This site | Holds your answers, flags and timer while you take a test. Never transmitted to us. | Cleared when you finish or close the tab | First party |
3. Analytics cookies (optional, off by default)
We plan to use Google Analytics to understand which pages and question topics are used, so we know where to add questions and what to fix. Data would be aggregated and not used to identify you.
Analytics is not running on this site yet. When it is enabled, these cookies will only be set after you opt in, and we will list each one here with its purpose and duration before it goes live.
4. How to give or withdraw consent
When you first visit, a banner at the bottom of the page offers Accept all and Reject all as equally prominent choices, plus Manage for per-category control. No non-essential cookie is set before you choose, and closing the banner without choosing is not treated as consent.
You can change your mind at any time using the Cookie settings link in the site footer. Withdrawing consent is exactly as easy as giving it, and takes effect immediately.
If we make a material change to how we use cookies, we will ask you again rather than relying on a decision you made under different terms.
5. Managing cookies in your browser
All major browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings, and offer a private browsing mode. Blocking all cookies may stop parts of this or other sites from working properly.
6. Changes to this policy
We update this page whenever the cookies we use change, and the Last Updated date above reflects the current version.
