Privacy Policy
Effective date: April 30, 2026
IQScore (“we”, “us”, or “our”) operates the website at iqscore.io (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.
We keep this policy short and plain. If you have questions, email us at support@iqscore.io.
1. Information we collect
a) Test data (stored locally on your device)
When you take the IQ test, your answers and session state are stored in your browser’s localStorage. This data never leaves your device unless you proceed to purchase a paid report. It is not sent to our servers during the free test.
b) Session identifiers (Supabase)
When you complete the test, a random session ID and your score data (IQ score, domain scores, answer record) are saved to our database (Supabase) so that your paid report — if you purchase one — can be generated and retrieved. No name, email address, or personally identifying information is stored alongside the score data.
c) Payment information (Stripe)
If you purchase the optional full report ($4.99), payment is processed by Stripe. We never see or store your card number. Stripe may collect your card details, billing address, email address, and IP address in accordance with their own privacy policy. We receive only a confirmation that payment was successful and a session reference.
d) Usage and log data
Our hosting provider (Netlify) and web infrastructure automatically collect standard server log data, including IP addresses, browser type, pages visited, and timestamps. This data is used for security and operational purposes and is not used to identify individual users.
e) Cookies and advertising
We display advertisements on some pages of this Site through Google AdSense. Google uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this Site and other sites on the internet. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our Site and/or other sites on the internet. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of third-party vendor use of cookies by visiting aboutads.info.
2. How we use your information
We use the information we collect to:
- Generate and deliver your IQ score and paid report
- Process and verify payments via Stripe
- Maintain and improve the Site
- Detect and prevent abuse or fraudulent activity
- Comply with legal obligations
We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We do not send marketing emails. We do not build advertising profiles from your test data.
3. Third-party services
The Site uses the following third-party services. Each has its own privacy policy:
- Google AdSense — advertising. Google Privacy Policy
- Stripe — payment processing. Stripe Privacy Policy
- Supabase — database hosting for session/score data. Supabase Privacy Policy
- Anthropic — AI-generated report content. Test answers are sent to Anthropic’s API for report generation only when you purchase the paid report. Anthropic Privacy Policy
- Netlify — website hosting. Netlify Privacy Policy
- Amazon Associates — affiliate links on the Cognitive Resources page. Amazon Privacy Policy
4. Data retention
Test session data (score, domain breakdown, answers) stored in Supabase is retained for 12 months to allow report retrieval. After that period, session data is deleted. Browser localStorage data persists on your device until you clear it — this is under your control.
5. Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights under GDPR (European Union), UK GDPR, or CCPA (California) including the right to access, correct, or delete data we hold about you. Because the only data we associate with a specific person is the payment record via Stripe (which Stripe controls), most requests should be directed to Stripe directly.
For any privacy-related request, email support@iqscore.io and we will respond within 30 days.
6. Children’s privacy
The Site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information to us, please contact us at support@iqscore.io.
7. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The effective date at the top of the page will reflect the most recent revision. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
