Practice

Your practice plan

A plan to your test day: which days to practise, what to practise today and a calendar file. Kept on this device only if you ask, and never sent.

What a plan keeps

The practice plan is off until you press Keep my plan on this device. From then on this browser keeps, in its local storage for this site, a random plan number that names its calendar events, the kind of test, its date or that you have none yet, the days a week and minutes you chose, your practice time, the day the plan was made, the days you practised, the section to work on next (the weakest section of your last full mock, or the section you last drilled), which aptitude questions this device has been given, so that it is not given them again, and whether you have answered how the test went (never the answer). The plan never holds an answer, a score, a name or an email address; the one thing it keeps from a result is the name of the section to work on next.

Nothing you enter in the plan is sent to us unless you turn sync on. When you open the plan page from a result, make a plan, download its calendar file, practise, answer how your test went or delete the plan, the page sends our cookieless counter an event name (two when you practise on a later day than the plan was made) with nothing attached: no date, no identifier and nothing you chose. Your answer to how the test went is not sent, only that you answered. A practice opened from the plan page has plan=1 in its address, which the counter records as it records every page address. Which section or kind of test it opens is kept after the # in the address, which is never sent. The calendar file is made in your browser and saved to your device; we only count that a file was made, never what is in it.

Delete my plan on the plan page removes it from this browser, and so does clearing this site’s data. The plan is separate from the explorer passport and is never used to count return days. The privacy policy is the binding version.
