Integrity and privacy — no surprises

  • Standard mode (L1–L3 on your public certificate): email verification, focus/tab detection, keystroke timing telemetry, randomized parameterized tasks, server-side timer.
  • Proctored mode (required for public L4–L5): government ID and selfie check, webcam snapshots and optional screen share, reviewed only if a session is flagged. Recordings are deleted after 90 days.
  • Unproctored results are capped at L3 on the public certificate; you can book a proctored retake to confirm L4 or L5. Every certificate shows whether it was proctored.
  • Retakes: wait 14 days per module, maximum 3 attempts per quarter. Your highest valid level shows on your profile.
  • We never show raw keystrokes or video to employers. You own your results. Data notice
