Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes how Mental Math Trainer (“the App”), developed by sdtareq (“we”, “us”, or “our”), handles information when you use our mobile application on Android or iOS.
1. Information stored on your device
The App stores the following data locally on your phone or tablet:
- Practice history — session records (start/end time, problem count, correct count, total time) and per-problem attempt records (skill, problem text, your answer, correctness, solve time, difficulty band, timestamp).
- Skill progress — current difficulty band per skill, derived accuracy and solve-time statistics used for progress charts and mastery display.
- Streaks — current daily streak, longest streak, last practice date, and streak-freeze count.
- Onboarding status — whether you have completed the first-run tutorial.
- App preferences — sound, haptic feedback, and dark mode toggles.
- Purchase status — whether you have bought the “Remove Ads” in-app purchase (
is_premiumflag in local storage). - Ad frequency counters — how many sessions have completed since the last full-screen ad, stored locally so ads are not shown too often.
Math problems are generated on your device at runtime and are not personal data. This information stays on your device unless you clear app data, use in-app “Reset progress”, or uninstall the App. We do not upload this data to our own servers.
2. Information we do not collect
We do not require you to create an account. The App does not ask for your name, email address, phone number, or precise location for its core features. We do not use Firebase Analytics, Crashlytics, or similar third-party analytics SDKs in the App.
3. Third-party services
Google AdMob (free version only)
If you have not purchased “Remove Ads”, the App uses Google AdMob to display:
- Banner ads on the home screen and session result screen.
- Interstitial ads occasionally when returning to the home screen after a completed practice session (not during timed problems).
- Rewarded ads only when you choose to watch them — for example, to see a technique hint after a wrong answer or to earn a streak freeze.
AdMob and its partners may collect and use information such as advertising ID, device type, IP address, and ad interaction data to serve and measure ads.

Where required by law, the App may show Google’s User Messaging Platform (UMP) consent form before personalized ads are served. You can also limit ad personalization in your device settings.
In-app purchases
Purchases are processed by Google Play (Android) or the Apple App Store (iOS). We receive only what the store provides to confirm purchase status (e.g. that “Remove Ads” was bought). Payment details are handled entirely by the store, not by us.
4. How we use information
- To provide mental math practice, adaptive difficulty, micro-lessons, streaks, skill maps, and progress charts inside the App.
- To remember your preferences and onboarding status between sessions.
- To honor your “Remove Ads” purchase and stop showing advertisements.
- To show ads in the free version (banner, occasional interstitial, and optional rewarded ads).
5. Data retention and deletion
- Session and attempt data accumulates on device until you clear it or uninstall.
- You can reset progress from Settings in the App, which clears local streaks, skill bands, and database history.
- Uninstalling the App removes locally stored data from your device.
- You can also clear the App’s storage in your device system settings.
6. Children’s privacy
The App is an educational tool for mental math practice and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will assist with deletion where applicable.
7. Security
Because data remains on your device, its security also depends on your device passcode, biometrics, and operating-system protections. We recommend keeping your device software up to date.
8. International users
The App is available worldwide. Local data stays on your device. Third-party ad and payment providers may process data according to their own policies and legal bases.
9. Your choices
- Remove ads — purchase “Remove Ads” in Settings (one-time, non-consumable).
- Limit ad tracking — use your device’s advertising / privacy settings.
- Reset progress — use “Reset progress” in Settings or clear app storage on your device.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the App after an update means you accept the revised policy.
