Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 20, 2026
Who we are
Drive IQ Canada ("we," "us," or "our") is a service operated by Oddly Sunny LLC, a single-member limited liability company formed in New Jersey, USA. We provide free, bilingual study tools for Canadian provincial driver knowledge tests at driveiqcanada.com.

What data we collect
driveiqcanada.com is built to collect as little personal data as possible. The categories below describe everything we collect:
- Anonymous analytics: Page views, referrer, approximate location (country / region), device type, browser, and language preference. Collected via Google Analytics 4 only when you consent (see Cookies, below).
- Local progress data: Your practice answers, scores, and IQ Readiness Score™ are kept in your browser's localStorage. If you accept analytics, we also save each finished practice or exam session on our server: your score, which questions you got right or wrong, and a random identifier created in your browser (plus your account ID if you are signed in). These records contain no name, email address, or IP address. If you tell us whether you passed your real test, we store that answer with your optional rating and comment. Sunny also receives a short summary of your progress (see Sunny, below).
- Contact form submissions: If you email [email protected], we receive your email address and message. Responses are sent from our Canadian-routed mailbox; we don't store contact-form messages in any third-party CRM.
- Sunny conversations: If you use Sunny, our AI study coach, we receive and store what you send it and its replies. The Sunny section below lists exactly what, who processes it, and for how long.
How we use the data
- To understand which provinces, vehicle classes, and topics are most useful to visitors, and how learners do on each question, so we can prioritize content updates and fix questions that mislead.
- To diagnose technical errors (e.g., which browser/device combinations break a question page).
- To respond to questions, corrections, and feedback you send us by email.
- To meet our legal obligations under Canadian privacy law.
How we share data
We don't sell your data. We don't share it with advertisers. The only third parties that touch any data on this site are:
- Google Analytics 4: Anonymized analytics events. Only loaded after you consent in opt-in regions (Quebec, EU/EEA, UK).
- Cloud hosting & CDN: Our pages are served via Firebase Hosting (Google) and Cloudflare. These providers see standard server logs (IP address, user agent, request URL) for security and performance, retained briefly per their own policies.
- Email delivery: Replies to your contact-form messages are sent through standard email infrastructure. We don't subscribe you to mailing lists.
- Anthropic (Claude): Writes Sunny's replies as our service provider, in the United States. It receives your Sunny messages and the study material needed to answer them, never your email address or payment details. Details in the Sunny section below.
We don't share data with Canadian or US licensing authorities. Drive IQ Canada is independent of every provincial Ministry of Transportation, ICBC, SAAQ, SGI, MPI, and other provincial bodies.
Sunny, the AI study coach
Sunny is the AI study coach on driveiqcanada.com, run by Oddly Sunny LLC. It explains practice questions, teaches from your provincial or territorial handbook and helps you plan your studying. Sunny is optional: if you never open it, nothing in this section applies to you.
- What Sunny receives: The messages you type or say to Sunny, and its replies; the page or practice question you asked from, including the answer you picked; your study settings (province or territory, licence class, test date); a short summary of the progress saved in your browser, such as your IQ Readiness Score and your weakest topics; the first name you saved on your account page or asked Sunny to use, if any; your pass; and a random identifier. That identifier is a code your browser makes for Sunny, or your sign-in account number if you signed in. Sunny never receives your email address or payment details. If you speak to Sunny, your browser's speech service turns your voice into text, and we receive only the text, never a recording.
- Why we use it: To answer you and keep each conversation going; to apply your pass and the daily message limit; to keep Sunny accurate and safe, by reviewing questions and replies with no name or email address attached so we can fix mistakes, find topics our material doesn't cover yet and stop misuse; and to follow up on the reports you send.
- Who processes it: Sunny's replies are written by Claude, an AI model made by Anthropic, acting as our service provider. For each reply, Anthropic receives your message, the earlier messages in that conversation and the study material Sunny needs (handbook passages, your study settings and your progress summary). Under its commercial terms, Anthropic does not train its models on this data and keeps it only for a limited time to run the service and prevent abuse. Your conversations and the records listed below are stored in our Google Cloud (Firebase) database.
- Processing outside Canada: Anthropic processes your Sunny messages in the United States, and Oddly Sunny LLC is a US company, so Sunny data leaves Canada. Once there, it may be accessible to courts, law enforcement and national security authorities under US law. We tell you this under PIPEDA and, for Quebec residents, Law 25. If you prefer that your messages stay in Canada, please don't use Sunny; the rest of the site works without it.
- No AI training, no ads: We don't use your Sunny conversations to train AI models, we don't sell them, and we don't use or share them for advertising.
How long Sunny data is kept:
- Your conversations: deleted automatically 12 months after the last message in them, or right away when you delete them.
- Quality log (each question and reply, shortened, with your province or territory, licence class and language, linked only to a scrambled code made from your identifier, never to a name or email address): 90 days.
- Daily message counts: 90 days.
- Ratings (thumbs up or down, any reasons or note you add, the question and the reply): 12 months.
- Reports: until a person has reviewed them, then 12 months.
- Settings Sunny saves for you (province or territory, licence class, test date, the name it calls you) and the Sunny lessons you finish: 24 months after the last change. When Sunny changes a setting, the previous value is kept for 7 days so you can undo it.
- A note that Sunny has already introduced itself to you: 12 months.
- Short-term counters that slow down floods of messages: 2 days at most. Your network address is never stored as is, only as a scrambled code inside these counters.
- Deleting your Sunny data: Every conversation in Sunny has a delete button, which removes our stored copy. To have all of your Sunny data deleted, or to ask what we hold, write to [email protected]. Because Sunny doesn't know your name or email address, we may ask for details that help us find your conversations, such as the day you used Sunny and what you asked. Conversations you can no longer open (for example after clearing your browser storage) are deleted on the schedule above.
- Teens: Many people studying for a learner's licence are teenagers. Sunny collects nothing extra from them: it sticks to test preparation, never asks for contact details and shows no ads. Every reply has a report button, and a person reviews every report.
- Keep personal details out: Please don't enter your full name, address, phone number, driver's licence number or any other personal information in Sunny. It doesn't need them and never asks for them.
How long we keep data
Anonymized analytics are retained by Google Analytics for 14 months by default, then deleted. Server logs are retained by Firebase/Cloudflare per their own short-retention policies (typically 30, 90 days). Contact-form emails are kept in our mailbox until your inquiry is resolved, plus a reasonable archival period. Sunny data has its own periods, listed in the Sunny section above. Practice-result records are deleted automatically after 24 months. Answers to "Did you pass?" are kept until deleted.
Your rights under PIPEDA
Canadian residents have the following rights under the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA):
- Access: Request a copy of any personal information we hold about you.
- Correction: Ask us to correct inaccurate or out-of-date personal information.
- Deletion: Ask us to delete the personal information we hold about you (for example your account and purchase records). Quebec's Law 25 and PIPEDA give you a right to erasure and de-indexing in many circumstances. Where a legal or accounting obligation requires us to keep certain records, we will tell you. This includes your practice results and "Did you pass?" answers: if you are signed in we can find and delete the records tied to your account, while records with only a random identifier cannot be tied to you and expire after 24 months.
- Withdraw consent: Withdraw your consent to analytics processing, including the saving of your practice results, at any time via the Cookie Settings page.
- Complain: If you believe we've mishandled your data, you can file a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (priv.gc.ca).
Because we collect so little personal data, most access/correction requests will simply confirm that we have nothing about you on record. To make a request, email [email protected].
Quebec residents: Law 25
Residents of Quebec have additional rights under An Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector (Law 25), including the right to data portability and the right to be informed about automated decision-making. We don't engage in automated decision-making about you on driveiqcanada.com. Sunny's replies are generated automatically, but Sunny makes no decision about you; it only helps you study.
Person in charge of personal information protection: the operator's principal at Oddly Sunny LLC. To exercise Law 25 rights, email [email protected] with the subject line "Law 25 request".
Cross-border data transfers
Oddly Sunny LLC is based in the United States. Any data we receive (e.g., contact-form messages) may be processed in the US. Sunny messages are processed in the United States by Anthropic, as described in the Sunny section above. Anonymized analytics are processed by Google in jurisdictions per Google's own data-residency rules. By using driveiqcanada.com, you consent to these transfers.
Security
Pages are served over HTTPS. We use modern browser security headers (Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security). We don't store passwords, payment info, or sensitive identifiers, and sign-in uses a one-time email link, so there is no password to steal. Payments are handled by Stripe.
Children
Drive IQ Canada is intended for users 14 and older preparing for a learner's permit (most provinces let teens start written-test prep at 14 with parental consent, full eligibility at 16). We don't knowingly collect personal information from children under 14. If you believe we have, including in a Sunny conversation, email [email protected] and we'll delete it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as our practices evolve. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent change. Material changes will be flagged on the homepage for at least 14 days.
