Privacy Policy

Last updated:

Your privacy matters to us. This policy explains, in plain language, what information dmvmocktest.com does and does not collect when you use the site.

No account, no personal data on our servers

dmvmocktest.com does not require account creation and does not store personal identifying information on a backend server. Basic quiz progress may be saved locally in your browser using localStorage.

What we store in your browser

To make the site useful, we save a small amount of non-personal information directly in your browser using localStorage. This stays on your device and is never sent to us. It may include:

  • The state you last selected
  • Your recent practice test scores and pass/fail results
  • Which categories you tend to struggle with
  • Your preference for Practice Mode or Exam Mode
  • The date you last completed a test

VIN decoder lookups

If you use our free VIN decoder, the VIN you enter is sent directly from your browser to the official US government NHTSA vPIC and recalls APIs to retrieve vehicle specifications and recall information. We do not store, log, or transmit your VIN to any other party, and a VIN alone does not identify you personally.

Approximate state suggestion

To suggest the right practice test, we may ask third-party geolocation services (ipwho.is, ipapi.co, and GeoJS) which US state your internet connection appears to be in. These requests contain no personal information or identifiers, we never store your IP address, and only the suggested state abbreviation (for example, “MI”) is cached in your own browser for up to 24 hours. The suggestion is never used to redirect you, and you can change the state at any time with one tap.

If you tap “Detect my state”, your browser will ask for permission to share your approximate location. If you allow it, your coordinates are sent only to BigDataCloud’s reverse-geocoding service to determine your state, and are not stored by us or linked to you. Declining the permission simply leaves the manual state selector in place.

You can clear this at any time by clearing your browser’s site data, or by using the “clear progress” option where available. We never store your name, email, phone number, address, driver license number, government ID, or any payment data.

Contacting us by email

If you email us, we use your email address and message only to reply to you. We do not add you to a mailing list and do not sell or share your information.

Cookies and analytics

We aim to keep the site lightweight and privacy-friendly. On your first visit we show a cookie banner with two choices: “Accept all” and “Essentials only.” Until you click one of those, no analytics or advertising scripts load and no analytics or advertising cookies are set.

If you choose “Essentials only,” we record your choice in your browser (localStorage and a first-party cookie named cookie-consent) and that is it. No analytics, no advertising scripts, no third-party cookies. The site continues to work fully.

If you choose “Accept all,” we load three analytics services and our advertising partner, in this order, only after the page is otherwise fully loaded: Google Tag Manager (which we use as a single loader for our other tags), Google Analytics 4 (aggregate visit measurement, used to understand which guides need more work), and Microsoft Clarity (anonymized behavioural analytics, used to find broken interactions and confusing layouts). Each of these sets its own cookies. We do not combine these analytics signals with any personally identifying information you give us. You can change your choice at any time by clearing cookies and localStorage for this site, which will surface the banner again on your next visit.

Advertising

This site is supported by advertising and uses Google AdSense to display ads. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet.

You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info. For more on how Google uses information from sites that use its services, see Google’s partner policy. Disabling advertising cookies does not remove ads; it makes the ads you see less personalized. We never place ads inside the active answer area of a quiz.

Third-party links

Our pages link to official government websites and other resources. Those sites have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their practices. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any site you visit.

Children’s privacy

Many of our users are teenagers studying for a learner’s permit. Because we do not collect personal information from anyone, we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us personal information by emailing us, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as the site evolves. The “last updated” date above reflects the most recent change. Questions? Email us at achyuthkumark2001@gmail.com.
