Privacy Policy

Last updated: 1 January 2026

Introduction

myK53 ("we", "our", or "us") operates the website k53onlinetest.co.za. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. This privacy policy explains how we handle data when you use our platform.

By using our website, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, please do not use our website.

No Account Required

We do not require registration or login to use our platform. You can access all practice tests, study guides, and resources without creating an account. No personal information is collected to use our services.

Local Data Storage

To provide you with a better experience, we store certain data locally in your browser:

• Test scores and results from your practice sessions
• Your progress through study materials
• Your preferred settings and preferences

This data is stored using your browser's sessionStorage and localStorage. This means:

• The data never leaves your device and is not sent to any server
• We cannot access, view, or retrieve this data
• Clearing your browser data removes all stored information
• The data is specific to the browser and device you use

Cookies

We use minimal cookies for basic site functionality. We do not use tracking cookies or advertising cookies.

If Google Analytics is implemented on our site in the future, it would be used solely to understand general usage patterns such as which pages are most visited and how users navigate the site. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect anonymous, aggregated data. No personally identifiable information is collected through Google Analytics. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Third-Party Services

Our website uses the following third-party services:

• Google Fonts — We use Google Fonts (Outfit and DM Sans) for typography. When you visit our site, your browser makes requests to Google's servers to load these fonts. Google may log standard web requests (IP address, browser type, timestamp) as part of their normal server operations. You can review Google's Privacy Policy for more information.
• Tailwind CSS CDN — We use the Tailwind CSS framework served from a CDN for styling. This service may log standard web requests as part of normal CDN operations.

We do not use any social media tracking pixels, advertising networks, or data brokers.

No Personal Data Collection

To be clear, we do not collect:

• Names or usernames
• Email addresses
• Phone numbers
• Physical addresses
• Identity numbers or passport details
• Payment or financial information
• Any other personally identifiable information

We have designed our platform specifically to avoid collecting personal data. You can use all features of myK53 completely anonymously.

Children's Privacy

Our service is available to users of all ages. Since our platform is designed to help people prepare for their K53 learner's licence test, many of our users may be teenagers. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone, including children under the age of 18.

Because no account creation is required and no personal information is collected, children can use our platform safely without parental consent being necessary for data-related purposes.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your privacy.

Significant changes to this policy will be reflected by a new "Last updated" date. Your continued use of our platform after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.

Your Rights Under POPIA

South African users have rights under the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA). Since we do not collect personal information, most of these rights do not directly apply to your use of our platform. However, we support the principles of POPIA and want you to know your rights:

• Access — Request access to any personal information we hold about you (we hold none)
• Correction — Request correction of inaccurate personal information
• Deletion — Request deletion of your personal information
• Objection — Object to the processing of your personal information
• Complaint — Lodge a complaint with the Information Regulator if you believe your privacy rights have been infringed

Since we do not collect or store any personal information on our servers, there is no personal data for us to share, sell, or process. Your test scores and progress data exist only in your browser and are under your full control.
