qbank.education is QBank's company site. It has no accounts and no ads, and only our staff sign-in page sets a cookie. This page covers qbank.education only. BrokerQBank, MedicQBank and ScholarQBank are separate sites.
What's saved in your browser
Your theme choice, a random visitor id and a visit count are saved in your browser's storage. A random session id and any campaign tags last until you close the tab. Clearing this site's data removes them.
What we record on our server
- Visits: a shortened IP address with the last part removed, your estimated country, browser and device details, language, screen size, each page and its title, time on the page, the site you came from, and any campaign tags in the link. Page loads are recorded even if JavaScript is off.
- Contact form: your name, email address, organization if you give one, topic, message and browser details. We keep a copy on our server and send it to our inbox by email. To limit how many messages one connection can send, we also keep a record under a hashed IP address for about a day.
- Staff sign-in: attempts to sign in to our admin pages are recorded with the full IP address, estimated country, device and browser.
Who else receives data
To estimate your country, our server sends your full IP address to ipwho.is over an encrypted connection. The reply also names your network provider, which we use only to flag datacenter traffic and don't store. Results are reused for up to 7 days. Contact messages travel by email, so the email services that deliver them handle them too.
How we use it
We use visit records to see how the site is used, contact messages to reply to you, and sign-in records to protect our admin pages.
How long we keep it
Visit logs are deleted once they're more than 90 days old. Deletion runs from time to time, so some can last a little longer. Records made before 07:25 ET on 2026-11-04 may still hold full IP addresses, cities and internet providers until then.
Contact messages have no set deletion date. The sign-in list keeps the latest 200 attempts. A list of looked-up countries, filed under a hashed form of the full IP address, has no end date.
Records from our earlier practice exams
Until November 2026, this site also hosted practice exams. Records made then include study activity, answers, feedback and searches. Their logs are deleted after 90 days. Combined totals for each question, up to 300 feedback comments and up to 3,000 search terms have no end date.
