### 1. Official Disclaimer & Non-Affiliation with Government Entities
* **Independent Educational Tool:** The Application is an independent self-study resource developed solely by İbrahim Cesur. It is **NOT** affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, authorized by, or in any way officially connected with the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA), the UK Department for Transport, or any other government authority or department of the United Kingdom.
* **Crown Copyright Notice:** This Application contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Materials, practice questions, and revision content derived from the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) are reproduced under Crown copyright permission. The DVSA and Crown copyright holders do not accept responsibility for the ongoing accuracy, currency, or completeness of the reproduction.

### 2. Information Collection and Local Storage
The Application is built to operate primarily offline and does not require account creation, user registration, or the submission of personal identifiers (such as name, email address, physical location, or telephone numbers).
* **No Personal Data Collection:** We do not collect, process, store, or transmit any personally identifiable information (PII).
* **On-Device Practice Data:** Your revision progress, mock exam scores, completed question histories, and bookmarked questions are stored strictly in your device's local memory (internal database/preferences).

### 3. Third-Party Services and Advertising
To deliver necessary technical services and support application maintenance, third-party software development kits (SDKs) are implemented. These providers handle device-level signals according to their independent privacy terms:
* **Google Play Services:** Facilitates fundamental operating system integrations, compatibility, and core platform routines.
* **Google AdMob:** Delivers in-app banner, interstitial, or rewarded advertisements. Google AdMob may process non-identifying telemetry such as your mobile Advertising ID, IP address, general country/city-level network location, and interaction events to display contextual or non-personalized advertisements aligned with applicable UK/EU regulatory standards.

### 4. Technical Diagnostics & Error Reporting
If an unexpected crash or technical issue occurs during your study session, anonymous diagnostic telemetry (such as your device model, Android OS build, and stack trace logs) may be automatically gathered by Google Play Services developer diagnostics. This data is fully anonymized and utilized solely to diagnose software bugs and enhance performance.

### 5. Children’s Privacy Protection
The Application does not target, market to, or knowingly solicit information from children under the age of 13. If you have reason to suspect that any unintended device information has been handled inappropriately, please get in touch with us promptly so that swift remedial action can be taken.
