Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Best SAT Score is a website that provides digital SAT preparation tools, including full-length adaptive practice tests, an SAT question bank, flashcards, an AI-powered study planner, and a score calculator. Best SAT Score (the "Service") is operated by ASOFLY ADS LIMITED ("we," "us," or "our"), which is the data controller responsible for your personal information.

This Privacy Policy applies to the Best SAT Score website at https://www.bestsatscore.com and all related services, features, and content (collectively, the "Services"). By creating an account, signing in, or otherwise using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with it.

If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Services. If you have any questions, you can contact us at any time using the details in the "Contact Us" section below.

3. Google Sign-In and Google User Data

Best SAT Score lets you create an account and sign in using your Google Account ("Sign in with Google"). This section explains exactly what Google user data we access, why, and how it is handled.

a. What Google Data We Access

When you sign in with Google, we request only the basic Google Sign-In scopes (openid, email, and profile). We access and store the following Google user data:

• Your name (display name)
• Your email address
• Your Google Account profile picture URL
• A unique Google Account identifier (account ID) used to link your Google Account to your Best SAT Score account

We do not access your Gmail, Google Drive, Google Calendar, Google Contacts, or any other Google product data. We do not request access to any sensitive or restricted Google scopes.

b. How We Use Google User Data

We use this Google user data only to:

• Create and authenticate your Best SAT Score account
• Identify you and keep your account, progress, and study data in working order
• Display your basic profile information (such as your name) in your account so you can recognize who is signed in

We do not use Google user data for advertising, and we do not sell Google user data. We do not use Google user data to train, improve, or develop generalized or non-personalized machine learning or AI models. No human reads your Google user data, except where you have asked us to help you with your account, it is necessary for security purposes, to comply with applicable law, or for the operation of our Services, and then only under strict need-to-know controls.

c. Google API Services User Data Policy / Limited Use

Best SAT Score's use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

d. Revoking Google Access

You can stop Best SAT Score from accessing your Google data at any time by removing access in your Google Account. Visit https://myaccount.google.com/permissions, select Best SAT Score, and choose "Remove Access". You can also request deletion of your Best SAT Score account and the associated data as described in Section 10 below.

5. Legal Bases for Processing Your Information

We only process your personal information when we have valid legal reasons to do so under applicable law. The legal bases we rely on depend on your location:

For EU and UK Users (GDPR)

Under GDPR and UK GDPR, we rely on the following legal bases:

• Performance of a Contract: To provide the Services you have requested, such as creating your account and delivering practice tests and study plans
• Consent: When you have given explicit permission for us to process your data for a specific purpose, for example when you choose to sign in with Google or opt in to marketing. You can withdraw this consent at any time

For Canadian Users

We primarily process your information based on:

• Express Consent: When you've given specific permission
• Implied Consent: When permission can be reasonably inferred

In certain exceptional cases, Canadian law permits processing without consent, including:

• When collection is clearly in an individual's interests and consent cannot be obtained in time
• For fraud detection and prevention
• For legitimate business transactions meeting specific conditions
• When processing insurance claims
• To identify injured, ill, or deceased persons and communicate with next of kin
• To investigate potential financial abuse
• When collection with consent would compromise information accuracy or availability
• To comply with legal requirements (subpoenas, court orders, etc.)
• For information produced in professional or employment contexts
• For journalistic, artistic, or literary purposes
• When information is publicly available as specified by regulations

6. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information (including Google user data). We may share your information only in the following situations:

• Business Partners: With business partners only with your explicit consent
• Business Transfers: In connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business by another company

In all cases, we take reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. We require our service providers to process your data only for the purposes we specify and only as permitted by applicable law.

7. Data Security

We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect your personal information. These measures include:

• Secure data storage and processing systems
• Encrypted data transmission (HTTPS/TLS)
• Access controls and authentication procedures
• Regular security assessments and monitoring

However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. We cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security measures.

While we strive to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.

8. Data Retention

We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless otherwise required by law.

• Legal Requirements: We may keep data longer if required by law (e.g., tax, accounting, or other legal requirements)
• Data Deletion: When we have no ongoing legitimate business need for your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it
• Backup Archives: If deletion is not immediately possible (e.g., in backup archives), we will securely store and isolate your information until deletion is possible

9. Your Rights

10. Data Deletion and Revoking Access

You can request the deletion of your Best SAT Score account and the personal information associated with it at any time.

If you signed in with Google and want to remove Best SAT Score's access to your Google Account, visit https://myaccount.google.com/permissions and remove access for Best SAT Score. Revoking access stops future data collection from Google, but does not by itself delete the account data we already hold; please also send a deletion request as described above if you would like your data removed.
