Payment data: mobile wallet number and transaction history processed via CamerPay, MTN MoMo or Orange Money. ExamBoost never stores full banking credentials.
Technical and anti-cheat data: encrypted device identifier, session logs, detection of leaving the app during a timed exam.
Content submitted by partner teachers: exams, corrections, and information needed to track their compensation.
3. Why we use this data
To provide access to the exam library and offline mode.
To enable real-time competitions and their AI-based refereeing.
To process pack payments and partner teacher compensation.
To ensure assessment integrity through anti-cheat mechanisms.
To improve the platform and personalize learning recommendations.
To send you notifications related to your activity (exam validation, payment received, competition results).
4. Legal basis for processing
Processing your data relies on your consent given at sign-up, on the performance of the contract linking you to ExamBoost for paid services, and on our legitimate interest in ensuring the security and integrity of competitions.
5. Data sharing
Your data may be shared with: mobile payment providers (CamerPay, MTN MoMo, Orange Money) to process your transactions; AI services used for competition refereeing, which only receive the data strictly necessary (questions, answers, scores); partner teachers, who can access aggregated results for the exams they submitted. Your data is never sold to third parties for commercial purposes.
6. Data retention
Your data is kept for as long as your account remains active. Backups are performed automatically every day, with a minimum retention of 30 days. If you delete your account, your personal data is deleted or anonymized within a reasonable time, unless a longer retention is legally required.
7. Data security
ExamBoost applies security measures consistent with best practices: encryption of sensitive data, token-based authentication (JWT), access restricted to authorized personnel only, compliant server hosting, and regular backups.
