Who We Are

Special Forces Thinking is an educational app created by Culture Awareness. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our website and applications.

What We Collect

Leaderboard submissions: When you submit a score to the leaderboard, we store the name you enter, your score, subject, test size, and time taken. We also store your IP address for rate limiting purposes.
No account required: You do not need to create an account to use the app. There is no email, password, or personal information collected.
No tracking: We do not use cookies, analytics trackers, or advertising pixels.

How We Use Your Data

Leaderboard names and scores are displayed publicly on the Top 100 leaderboard.
IP addresses are used solely for rate limiting to prevent abuse. They are not shared or sold.
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with any third party.

Payments

Premium purchases are processed through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. We do not directly collect or store any payment information, credit card numbers, or billing details. All payment processing is handled by Apple or Google under their respective privacy policies.

Data Storage

Leaderboard data is stored on a secure server located in Helsinki, Finland. Data is retained indefinitely unless you request deletion.

Your Rights

You can request deletion of your leaderboard entries by contacting us.
You can use the app without submitting any data to the leaderboard.
All educational content is stored locally in the app — no internet connection is required for learning and quizzes.

Children

This app is educational and suitable for all ages. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Leaderboard submission is optional and requires only a display name.
