Privacy Policy
True North is designed to be private by default. The short version: we do not collect, store, transmit, or sell any personal data, and the app works fully offline.
Data we collect
None. True North has no accounts, no sign-in, no analytics, no advertising, and no telemetry. We do not collect usage data, diagnostics, identifiers, or personal information of any kind. The App Store privacy label for this app is “Data Not Collected.”
Offline by design
The entire study experience, meaning the question bank, practice, mock exams and your progress, runs on your device. The app makes no network requests to us or to any third party for its core function. Your study activity, scores and any province you select stay on your device.
Your progress
Your practice history, scores, spaced-repetition state and settings are stored locally on your device, and in your own iCloud backup if you have that enabled for the app. We never see or receive them.
Purchases
True North offers an optional one-time Pro in-app purchase. Purchases are handled entirely by Applethrough the App Store and StoreKit. We never receive or store your payment details. Apple’s handling of purchase data is governed by Apple’s Privacy Policy. The app stores only a local indication of whether Pro is unlocked; StoreKit ties your purchase to your Apple ID so you can restore it on your other devices.
Not affiliated with the Government of Canada
True North is an independent study aid. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the Government of Canada, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), or any government body. It does not provide legal or immigration advice. “Discover Canada” and related official materials are the property of their respective owners; True North references the official guide and links you to the government’s own resources.
Children
True North does not target children and collects no data from anyone, including children under 13.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, we will update the effective date above and post the revised policy at the same URL. Material changes will be noted in a future app update’s release notes.
