Privacy Policy
SeaTest apps
Effective November 6, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how SeaTest handles information in its maritime exam training apps on Google Play. It applies to each app listed at the end of this page.
Who we are
The apps are published by SeaTest. For any privacy question, write to baltic.crewing@gmail.com.
Information we collect
The apps have no user accounts, and collection cannot be turned off, because the license check needs it.
| Type | What it includes | Why we use it |
|---|---|---|
| Crash logs | Stack traces and the state of the app at the moment of a crash. | To find and fix errors. |
| Diagnostics | Device model and manufacturer, Android version, app version and package name, install source, app signing certificate fingerprint, app installation path, technical error codes. | To find errors and to detect tampering or unauthorized copies. |
| Device and other identifiers | Firebase installation ID, Crashlytics installation ID, Firebase Cloud Messaging token, and one-way hashes derived from the Android ID and a key stored on your device. | To tie your license to your device, to run the app, to count affected devices, and to prevent abuse. |
| License status | The answer from Google Play on whether your Google account holds a license for this app. | To confirm that the app was purchased, and to prevent unauthorized use. |
| IP address | The network address your device uses when it contacts our servers. | To protect the servers from abuse. We do not use it to determine your location. |
We do not collect your name, email address, phone number, precise location, contacts, photos, or files, and the apps show no advertising. Your test results stay on your device.
How we use information
We use it only to run the apps, confirm licenses, keep the apps and servers secure, and fix errors. We do not sell it and do not use it for advertising.
Who receives information
We use Google services as our service providers, and they process data on our behalf: Google Play, Firebase, and Google Cloud. We do not share information with anyone else, unless the law requires it.
How long we keep information
- Server records of errors and license checks: 30 days.
- Records of a Google Play answer that an activated app is not licensed: 210 days.
- Crash reports: 90 days, under Firebase retention rules.
- Firebase installation identifiers: kept by Firebase until they are deleted under its own rules.
- Data stored on your device: until you uninstall the app or clear its data.
We do not offer deletion of data on request. Server records are removed when the periods above end.
Security
All data is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Server records can be read only by our services and by authorized staff.
Children
The apps are made for adult seafarers aged 18 and over and are not directed at children.
If you contact us
If you write to our support, we receive your email address and your message, and use them only to answer you. Support messages are sent by your own email app.
In CBT Answers you can report a missing question or module with a photo. The app asks for access to the camera the first time. The photo stays on your device and leaves it only if you send the email from your own email app.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. The date at the top shows the current version.
