Ontario G1 Driver’s Test Prep (g1.chowchowlabs.ca) is run by Zhengtao Long, operating as ChowChow Labs (Ontario, Canada). This policy explains how we handle your personal information, in line with Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). Questions: chowchowbuy@gmail.com.
What we collect
- Your email address, to create your account and send sign-in codes.
- Your study data: mock exam answers, scores, times, flagged questions and per-question stats.
- Your settings: light or dark mode, colour theme and reminder preferences.
- Subscription status: whether you have Premium, when it renews or ends, and Paddle’s customer and subscription IDs. We never see or store your card or PayPal details.
- Basic technical logs (such as IP address, browser and error messages), kept briefly by our hosting provider for security and troubleshooting.
How we use it
Only to run the site: sign you in, save your progress across devices, show your stats, give Premium to subscribers, answer support emails and keep the site secure. We don’t sell your information. Your email and study data are never shared with advertisers.
Who helps us run the site
- Supabase stores accounts and study data (servers in Canada).
- Cloudflare hosts the website.
- Resend sends sign-in emails.
- Paddle processes payments as Merchant of Record and handles receipts, taxes and refunds under its own privacy policy.
- Google AdSense shows ads on some free pages (see “Ads” below).
Some of these providers may process data outside Canada, such as in the United States.
Cookies and storage
We use our own cookies to keep you signed in and remember your theme, and your browser’s storage to save an exam in progress. On pages that show ads, Google and its partners also use cookies (see below).
Ads
To keep Mock Exams 1–5 free, we show ads from Google AdSense on some pages for free users. Exams, practice questions and Premium accounts are ad-free.
- Google and its partners use cookies to show ads based on your visits to this and other websites, and to measure how ads perform. Google’s use of advertising cookies lets it and its partners serve ads based on those visits.
- You can turn off personalised ads in Google’s Ads Settings, or opt out of many third-party vendors at youradchoices.ca and aboutads.info. You’ll still see ads, but they won’t be based on your browsing.
- Learn more in how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
How long we keep it
We keep your data while your account is open. Delete your exam history or your whole account any time in Settings; deleting your account removes your data from our database right away. Paddle keeps payment records as tax law requires.
Your rights
You can ask to see, correct or delete your personal information, or withdraw consent, by emailing chowchowbuy@gmail.com. If you’re not satisfied with our answer, you can contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
Young users
Many G1 students are teenagers. We collect only what’s needed to run the site. If you’re under 16, please use the site with a parent or guardian’s permission.
Changes
If we change this policy, we’ll update the date above and email you about important changes.
