1. Who we are

ProIQTest.com is an online IQ test website. Contact: admin@proiqtest.com.

2. What we collect and why

• Test answers and timing — kept temporarily in your browser session while you take the test, to compute your score.
• Name, email address, and age — entered by you after finishing the test. The age is required to calculate your IQ score; the name personalises your result page and certificate; the email identifies your result. These are stored in our database together with your score.
• Newsletter consent — we send you news about the site by email only if you tick the optional newsletter checkbox. You can withdraw consent at any time by emailing us.
• Your answer sheet — which option you chose for each of the sixty questions and how long you spent on it, stored with your result. It is what the detailed analysis is built from.
• Your IP address — stored with your result, and with any message sent through the contact form, to limit automated abuse. We also use it to work out which country a visit comes from, which tells us where to translate and which payment methods to offer. That lookup happens on our own server and gives a two-letter country code and nothing finer.
• Purchase records — if you buy the detailed analysis, we store the order number, the email address used, the amount and the currency. We never see or store card details.

3. Cookies, analytics and advertising

We use a session cookie that is strictly necessary to run the test, and a second cookie that remembers which results were taken on this browser, so that your own result page greets you as its owner rather than as someone opening a shared link. It holds only the random codes from the address bar of results taken here, it is never sent anywhere but back to this site, and it is not used to track you or to build any profile. It lasts a year; clearing your cookies removes it, and the result link keeps working either way. We also use Google Analytics to count visits and understand which pages are used; it sets cookies that give your browser a random identifier. We use this only in aggregate — we never try to identify you from it. You can opt out for all sites with Google's opt-out browser add-on, or by enabling "Do Not Track"/blocking cookies in your browser. The test works fully either way.

We additionally use Umami, a self-hosted analytics tool, for the same purpose. Umami is cookieless: it sets no cookies, stores no personal data and does not track you across sites. It records only aggregate page and referrer counts.

The site carries no advertising and loads no advertising or consent-management scripts.

Our pages load a web font from Google Fonts, which means your browser makes a request to Google's servers and your IP address is visible to them in the process.

To tell which country a visit comes from, we look your IP address up in a copy of the MaxMind GeoLite2 country database held on our own server. No request leaves our server and your address is not sent to anyone; the answer is a two-letter country code, never a street address, a household or a person. This product includes GeoLite Data created by MaxMind, available from maxmind.com, and GeoNames data (geonames.org) under CC BY 4.0.

3a. Payments

If you buy the optional detailed analysis, the payment is handled by Lemon Squeezy, LLC as merchant of record. When you open the checkout we pass them the name and email address you gave after the test, so you do not have to type them again, together with the identifier of the result being bought. They handle the payment and send us back the order number, the email address used and the amount, which we store so your analysis stays unlocked. Your card details go to them, never to us. See Lemon Squeezy's privacy policy.

4. Result pages are shareable

Every result has a unique, hard-to-guess link. The result page shows your first name and IQ score to anyone who has the link. Do not share the link if you want your score to stay private. Your email address and age are never displayed publicly.

5. Data retention and your rights

Results are kept so that your shared result link continues to work. You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your data at any time by writing to admin@proiqtest.com. If you are in the EU/EEA you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your data-protection authority.

6. Data sharing

We do not sell your personal data. It is shared only with our hosting provider (to operate the site), with Google Analytics as described above, and — if you buy the detailed analysis — with Lemon Squeezy to take the payment. Our own Umami analytics runs on a server we operate ourselves, and the country lookup described above contacts nobody at all.
