Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 26, 2026
Overview
Checkride Prep ("we," "us," or "our") is an AI-powered oral exam practice tool for pilots. This Privacy Policy describes what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data. We take privacy seriously and do not sell your personal information.
Information We Collect
- Account information — your email address and password (stored securely via Supabase) when you create an account.
- Payment information — subscription billing is processed by Stripe. We do not store your credit card number or payment details on our servers. Stripe's privacy policy governs payment data.
- Exam session content — your typed and spoken responses during oral exam practice sessions are sent to Anthropic's API to generate AI examiner responses. Audio recordings are sent to OpenAI's API for transcription. Neither audio recordings nor session transcripts are stored on our servers after the session ends.
- Usage data — pages visited, session duration, and general usage patterns collected via Google Analytics. This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally.
How We Use Your Information
- To provide and operate the Checkride Prep service
- To process subscription payments and manage your account
- To generate AI examiner responses during practice sessions
- To transcribe your spoken answers via speech-to-text
- To improve the product based on aggregated usage data

We do not use your exam session content to train AI models. We do not send marketing emails without your consent.

Children's Privacy
Checkride Prep is designed for student pilots and certificated pilots. FAA pilot certificate requirements mean our users are generally 16 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email or by posting a notice on the site. Continued use of Checkride Prep after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
