Privacy Policy

Civics Test 2025

Civics Test 2025 is a study app for the U.S. naturalization civics test. It is built to collect nothing about you — no account, no tracking, no ads, no analytics, and no network connection at all.

Summary in one line: The app collects nothing. The little it stores — your settings and the officials' names you type — lives only on your device, and the app never connects to any server.

What we collect

Nothing about you personally. There are no accounts to create, no email to enter, and we operate no server that could receive your data. The app uses no analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs.

What stays on your device

Everything the app stores is saved locally on your device (in Apple's on-device UserDefaults) and never leaves it:

Quiz results are not recorded after you leave a practice session. Deleting the app removes everything. There is no cloud copy and no backup held by us.

Network use

Civics Test 2025 makes no network requests. All 128 official questions and answers are built into the app, so it works entirely offline. The one exception is at your own initiative: if you tap a link to an official site (such as the USCIS test-updates page, senate.gov, or house.gov), your device opens that public web page in your default browser. At that point your browser — not this app — handles the request, under its own privacy policy. The app sends nothing on its own.

Notifications and permissions

The app requests no special permissions — no notifications, location, contacts, camera, or photos.

Children

Civics Test 2025 is a general-audience education app and does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children under 13. (It collects nothing from anyone.)

About the content

The questions and answers are from the official USCIS publication "128 Civics Questions and Answers (2025 version)," a public-domain work of the U.S. government. This app is an independent study tool and is not affiliated with, or endorsed by, USCIS or the U.S. government.

Changes to this policy

If this policy ever changes, we'll update this page and note what changed.
