1. Types of cookies
- Essential cookies keep you signed in, protect forms from abuse, remember your cookie choice and keep your list of finished practice questions. The site doesn't work without them, so they're always on.
- Analytics cookies let us see how the site is used: the pages opened, where visitors came from, how long pages stay open, how far they're scrolled and which main buttons are clicked. The data goes to our own server, not to an advertising company. They're off until you accept them, and if your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, the analytics box starts unchecked.
We don't use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
