Privacy & Terms
How we handle your data
Last updated: April 2026
Overview
Core Exam Layups ("we," "our," or "us") built NIS Prep as a commercial iOS application. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our app. By using NIS Prep, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
Information We Collect
NIS Prep collects only the minimum information necessary to provide its service. When you create an account, we collect your email address, which is used solely for authentication and service communications. Study progress data — questions attempted, scores, and session history — is stored locally on your device and, where applicable, in a secure database associated with your account.
How We Use Your Information
Your email address is used to authenticate your account and enable access across your devices. We may use it to communicate important service updates. Your study data is used exclusively to power the app's progress tracking features and is never shared with third parties or used for advertising purposes.
Data Storage and Security
We implement industry-standard technical measures to protect your information. Your account credentials are stored securely using best-practice encryption. We do not store payment information — all transactions are handled directly by Apple through the App Store.
Third-Party Services
NIS Prep uses Apple's infrastructure for authentication and app distribution. These services are governed by Apple's own privacy policies. We do not integrate third-party advertising networks or sell your data to any third party.
Data Retention and Deletion
You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting us using the form on our website. Upon receiving a verified deletion request, we will remove your personal information within 30 days.
Children's Privacy
NIS Prep is intended for medical professionals and students preparing for board examinations. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, please contact us immediately.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted to this page with an updated effective date. Continued use of the app following notification of changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
Contact
If you have questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy, please use the contact form on our website or send feedback through the app.
