Accounts and practice

SHSAT Math Studio stores your account email, display name, sign-in credentials and identifiers for any connected sign-in providers, access status, and practice progress. Progress includes answers, attempts, hints, bookmarks, and review activity used to synchronize your study workspace. New student registration requires a parent or guardian’s approval, which is recorded with the account.

Google sign-in

Google sign-in is optional. It uses your basic Google identity: verified email, name, and a stable account identifier. It does not request access to Gmail, Drive, Calendar, or your contacts. Google verifies your identity; Studio verifies the resulting short-lived sign-in token and issues its own session. An existing Studio account requires its current password once before it can be connected to Google. Google access tokens and client secrets are not stored in the website.

Additional sign-in providers

Where available, you can connect Microsoft, Discord, Facebook, GitHub, X, or LinkedIn in Studio Settings after signing in to your Studio account. Studio keeps the provider name, its account identifier, and when you connected it. Studio uses X’s read permissions to look up the account identifier and uses LinkedIn’s OpenID Connect identity token. Studio discards provider tokens after verifying the sign-in and does not share your practice progress or purchases with the provider. For help removing a connection or deleting its data, contact support below.

Google Classroom sharing

The Share to Google Classroom link opens Classroom with the public diagnostic URL. You choose the class and what to post in Classroom. Studio does not send your answers, scores, or account information to Classroom.

Tutor assignments and family reports

When you join a tutor’s assignment, Studio saves your answers so you can continue on another device. The assigning tutor can see your display name, progress, score, and topic totals after you agree to share them. Leave the assignment to delete its attempt and stop sharing. A student and their connected guardian can both opt in to weekly progress emails. Either person can turn them off in Connections & family.

Spotify study music

Spotify is loaded only when you open Study music. Opening that panel sends an ordinary browser request to Spotify, including network and browser information. Spotify’s own privacy policy and playback restrictions apply. Studio does not connect to your Spotify account or send your answers or progress to Spotify. A custom playlist link is saved on your device. Closing the panel removes the player.

Study plans and progress sharing

Study-plan dates and preferences are saved on the current device, separately for each Studio account. Calendar exports include generic study sessions, optional calendar reminders, and links back to Studio tools. Studio does not read or modify your external calendar. Imported events do not automatically update when you edit a plan in Studio. Your calendar provider stores an exported plan only when you choose to import or share it. A progress summary includes your display name, practice results, review counts, and completed test scores. Preview it before copying, downloading, or choosing a recipient in your device’s share sheet. Studio does not send summaries automatically.

Personal notebook and app exports

Your own study notes, recall cards, archived items, and unfinished draft are stored on the current device, separately for each Studio account or as guest data when signed out. They do not automatically synchronize with another device or app. You can download a backup and import saved items into another Studio notebook. A notebook backup does not include your login, account identifier, question-bank content, or practice history. Anki, Quizlet, and Markdown exports include the active cards or notes you saved; review that content before importing it elsewhere. Studio does not request permissions for those accounts or send your notebook automatically.

Book access requests

If you send an Amazon order number to unlock book access, Studio keeps the full number only while it waits for review so it can be checked against book sales. After a decision, Studio keeps only the last four digits and a one-way fingerprint that stops the same number from being used twice, along with the decision and any note sent to you. Each request also records your browser type and a one-way fingerprint of your network address to limit abuse. Studio emails your account address about the decision when email is available.

Online purchases

Paid plans use Stripe-hosted checkout. Studio sends Stripe your account email, an internal account identifier, and the selected plan and price. Stripe handles payment-card information; Studio does not store card numbers. Cloudflare stores the purchase reference, payment status, plan and access expiration so Studio can unlock the correct account. Stripe sends signed payment-confirmation events to the Studio API. For purchase or refund requests, contact support.

Storage and service providers

Cloudflare hosts the website and account API and stores synchronized account and practice data. Your browser stores your Studio session, preferences, and a local copy of study progress. Short-lived sign-in and sign-up attempt records use hashed network identifiers and hashed email addresses to limit abuse. Fonts and the math and PDF rendering libraries are served from the Studio website itself.

Support and requests

For questions about stored information, account corrections, or a deletion request, contact [email protected]. A parent or guardian can contact support for a student account. Do not email passwords, sign-in tokens, or payment-card details.
