Privacy Policy
Last Updated: March 2026 — AIviation LLC
1. Introduction
AIviation LLC ("we," "us") operates Checkride.bot (checkride.bot and the iOS app, bundle ID: bot.checkride). This policy describes what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights.
2. Data We Collect
Device UUID
A randomly generated identifier stored on your device at first launch. Used for session continuity, free trial tracking, and purchase verification. Not linked to your Apple ID, name, or email.
Apple Transaction ID
When you make a purchase, Apple StoreKit provides a transaction ID. We store this to verify your entitlement. We never receive or store payment card details — all payment processing is handled by Apple.
Exam Session Data
Questions asked, your text responses, ACS areas covered, scores, session timestamps, and exam type. Stored on AWS (us-east-2) and linked only to your device UUID.
Voice Audio
When using the voice feature, audio is captured, sent to AWS for transcription, then immediately deleted. Only the resulting text transcript is retained.
What We Do NOT Collect
We do not collect your name, email, phone number, Apple ID, location, advertising identifiers, or any cross-app tracking data. We use no third-party analytics SDKs.
3. How We Use Your Data
- Provide, operate, and improve the exam service
- Verify purchases and manage entitlements
- Track free-trial eligibility
- Generate session history and debrief scores
- Improve AI examiner response quality
- Comply with legal obligations
We do not sell your data. We do not use your data for advertising.
4. Third-Party Services
5. Microphone Access
Microphone access is required for voice-mode exams. Audio is captured → transcribed by AWS → audio deleted immediately. Only the text transcript is stored. You can revoke microphone access in iOS Settings at any time.
6. Data Retention
- Exam session data: 90 days from last session, then auto-deleted
- Purchase records: retained as required by law
- Device UUID: retained while account is active; deleted on request
- Voice audio: never retained — deleted immediately after transcription
7. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or port the data we hold about you. To exercise any right, email privacy@aiviation.dev. We will respond within 30 days.
