Phlashcards Security+ · Privacy Policy

Your privacy is
not negotiable.

Phlashcards was built on a simple principle. Your learning experience is personal. It should stay that way.

The Short Version
Phlashcards collects no personal data. We do not track you, store your information, or share anything with anyone. Everything stays on your device. That is not a policy. That is how the app was built.
Effective Date: 2026 · Last Updated: May 2026
What We Collect

Nothing. Phlashcards does not collect any personal information, usage data, analytics, device identifiers, or any other data from you or your device.

The app does not require an account. It does not require an email address. It does not ask for your name, location, or any identifying information of any kind.

What Stays On Your Device

All of the following are stored locally on your device and are never transmitted anywhere:

Your study progress
Domain performance scores
Practice exam results
Flashcard review history
Streak history
Session data
Bookmarks
Certification track unlocks

When you delete the app, all locally stored data is removed with it. We have no copy of your progress because we never had access to it.

Advertising

There are no ads in Phlashcards. We do not work with any advertising networks, ad-tech platforms, or data brokers. There is nothing to opt out of because nothing is running.

Analytics and Tracking

Phlashcards contains no analytics software, crash reporting services, or behavioral tracking of any kind. We do not know how you use the app. That information belongs to you.

Third Parties

We do not share, sell, license, or transfer any user data to any third party because we do not collect any user data to begin with. There are no third-party SDKs embedded in the app for data collection purposes.

The app is distributed through the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. Apple and Google may collect certain platform-level data in accordance with their own privacy policies, which are separate from and unrelated to Phlashcards.

In-App Purchases: If you make in-app purchases to unlock certification tracks or premium features, those transactions are processed entirely by Apple or Google. We do not see, store, or have access to your payment information. Purchase records are maintained by the platform, not by Hodge Podgin LLC.

Children

Phlashcards does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children under the age of 13. Since we collect no data at all, the app is safe for learners of all ages from a data privacy standpoint.

Changes to This Policy

If we ever make changes to this privacy policy, we will update the effective date at the top of this page. We will never introduce data collection practices that contradict our core commitment to privacy without clear and prominent notice.
