ExamDash (Android) — Last updated: 2026-10-30
ExamDash is an offline study planner: exam countdowns, a syllabus checklist with progress percentages, timed mock exams, a study timer and home-screen widgets. This policy explains what happens to your data — in short, almost all of it never leaves your device.
1. Data stored on your device only
- Everything you enter — exam names and dates, subjects, topics, mock exam records, study sessions and settings — is stored locally on your device in the app's own database and preferences.
- The app has no accounts and no servers. We do not receive, upload or keep a copy of your content.
- There is no analytics and no tracking in the app itself.
2. Backups
Backups work as a JSON file you export yourself through your device's share/save dialog. The file is created and stored wherever you choose; we never see it. If you import it back, it is read directly from the file you pick. Keep backup files safe — anyone with the file can read your study data, because it is not encrypted.
3. Advertising (Google AdMob)
The free version shows ads served by Google (AdMob). This is the only component that involves third parties:
- Google may use the advertising ID from your device and technical information (such as device model, OS and approximate location derived from IP) to serve and measure ads, as described in Google's Advertising policy.
- If you are in the European Economic Area or the UK, Google's consent message (UMP) is shown before ads, and you may refuse consent or manage your choices at any time via the ad settings provided by Google.
- You can opt out of personalized advertising in Android: Settings → Google → Ads → Delete advertising ID.
- The paid upgrade (Pro) removes all ads.
4. Purchases
The Pro upgrade is a one-time purchase processed entirely by Google Play. We never see your payment details; the app only stores a local flag that you own Pro and asks Google Play to restore it when you reinstall.
5. Permissions
- Notifications (optional): for exam reminders and timer finish alerts. Denying the permission does not break anything else.
- Vibration: timer end feedback.
- No location, contacts, camera, microphone or storage access is requested. Backup export/import uses the system file picker.
6. Children
The app is a study tool for exam candidates and is not directed at children under 13.
7. Deleting your data
See How to delete your data. In short: delete items in the app, uninstall the app (which removes all local data), or export a JSON backup first if you want to keep a copy. Because there is no server, there is nothing for us to delete on your behalf.
