How Learn a Trade handles local study data, subscriptions and optional online services.
Last updated 18 July 2026
Controller and scope
Spotlight Ventures Limited, company number 17076611, operates Learn a Trade. The app currently works without a separate Learn a Trade login. Apple or Google controls the store account used for purchases.
Data in the app
- Study progress, quiz answers, settings, streaks and simulator results stored on the device.
- Purchase entitlement and store receipt or purchase-token information needed to start, validate or restore a subscription.
- Optional queued learning or simulator events when cloud sync is enabled.
- Mistake reports, support details and request references that a user chooses to submit.
- Basic service, device and security information needed to operate configured online functions.
Why we use data
- Contract: to provide requested learning features and validate paid access.
- Legitimate interests: to secure the service, diagnose failures, prevent abuse and improve content from submitted reports.
- Legal obligation: for rights requests, payment records and lawful authority requirements.
- Consent: for optional marketing where consent is the chosen lawful route.
Local storage and permissions
The app is local-first. Progress and settings remain on the device unless an optional sync function is configured and used. You can clear local study data from Profile. Uninstalling the app may also remove local data, subject to device backup behaviour.
Subscriptions and providers
Apple App Store or Google Play processes purchases, cancellation, billing and store-account records under its own terms. Learn a Trade may send the minimum receipt or purchase-token data needed for entitlement validation to its configured service provider.
Optional sync and report functions may use Spotlight Ventures infrastructure and Supabase when enabled. We do not sell personal data or use study progress for unrelated advertising.
Retention and deletion
Local data remains until it is cleared, the app is removed or the device removes it. Submitted support, report, security and entitlement records are kept only as long as needed for service, dispute, fraud-prevention, legal or accounting purposes.
Clearing app data does not cancel a store subscription or delete Apple or Google account records.
Your rights
You may have rights to access, correct, erase, restrict or port personal data, object to processing and withdraw consent. See the Learn a Trade data rights page.
Learn a Trade is not intended for children under 13.
Security and changes
We use proportionate access, transport, validation and service controls for configured online functions. No system is completely secure. This notice will be updated when the app’s data model or providers materially change.
