Privacy Policy

Last Updated: March 27, 2026

1. Acceptance of This Policy

By using Texas CBE™ ("the Service"), you agree to this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please discontinue use immediately.

2. Information We Collect

We collect the following information to provide and improve our Service:

  • Account Information: Name, email address, username, and password (stored as a secure hash — we never store plain-text passwords).
  • Profile Information: First name, last name, and other optional profile details you choose to provide.
  • Learning Data: Exam attempts, answers submitted, scores, progress tracking, and TEKS category performance. This data is used to provide personalized study recommendations and track your improvement.
  • Payment Information: Payment transactions are processed securely through Stripe. We do not store your credit card number, CVV, or full card details on our servers. We may retain transaction IDs, purchase amounts, and purchase dates for record-keeping.
  • Technical Data: IP address, browser type and version, device type, operating system, access timestamps, and pages visited. This data is collected for security, analytics, and service improvement purposes.
  • AI Interaction Data: When you request AI-powered explanations, your question context and selected answers are sent to the Anthropic Claude API to generate explanations. We do not send your personal identity information to AI providers.
3. How We Use Your Information

We use collected information for the following purposes:

  • Providing and operating the test preparation service.
  • Processing payments and managing your purchases.
  • Generating personalized study recommendations and progress reports.
  • Providing AI-powered explanations for practice questions.
  • Communicating with you about your account, purchases, or service updates.
  • Improving our content, features, and user experience.
  • Ensuring security and preventing fraud or abuse.
  • Complying with legal obligations.
4. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services to operate the platform:

  • Stripe: For secure payment processing. Stripe's privacy policy governs their handling of your payment data. Visit stripe.com/privacy.
  • Anthropic (Claude API): For generating AI-powered question explanations. Only question content and your selected answer are shared — not your personal identity. Visit anthropic.com/privacy.
  • Google (OAuth): If you choose to sign in with Google, we receive your name and email address from Google. Visit Google's Privacy Policy.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices or security of third-party services.

5. Information Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may share information only:

  • With service providers necessary to operate the platform (Stripe, Anthropic) as described above.
  • When required by law, court order, or government request.
  • To protect our rights, safety, or property, or that of our users.
  • With your explicit consent.
6. Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies for session management, authentication, and remembering your preferences (such as language settings). These are essential cookies required for the Service to function. We do not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies. You may restrict cookies through your browser settings, but some features may not function properly.

7. Data Security

We implement reasonable security measures to protect your data, including:

  • SSL/TLS encryption for all data in transit (HTTPS).
  • Passwords stored using secure one-way hashing (PBKDF2-SHA512).
  • Sensitive configuration values encrypted at rest (Fernet/AES).
  • Database access restricted by authentication and network rules.
  • Regular automated database backups.

However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security and the Service is provided "as is" with respect to security.

8. Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. Upon account deletion:

  • Your profile information and learning data will be deleted promptly.
  • Payment transaction records may be retained as required by tax and financial regulations.
  • Anonymized or aggregated analytics data (not linked to your identity) may be retained indefinitely.
  • Backup copies may persist for up to 30 days before automatic deletion.
9. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

Texas CBE™ serves students of all ages, including those under 13. We are committed to complying with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA):

  • Users under 13 must have verifiable parental consent before creating an account.
  • We collect only the minimum information necessary to provide the Service (email, username, learning progress).
  • Parents or guardians may review, modify, or request deletion of their child's information by contacting us at aiswingx.com@gmail.com.
  • We do not condition a child's participation on providing more information than is reasonably necessary.
