Who we are

RailFocus is a UK aptitude practice service for train driver and rail signaller selection. This page covers the website at RailFocus, not the separate iOS or Android apps, which store practice data on your device only.

What we store

  • Account email and an optional display name.
  • Career track, optional assessment date, and whether you have finished onboarding.
  • Practice sessions: module, track, score out of 100, and metrics needed to show results. We do not store card numbers. Payments are handled by Stripe, who keep the records they need to take payment.
  • Whether you have used a free practice exam, and Plus access dates if you buy Plus. About a week before Plus ends, we email the address on the account so you can buy another term if you still need it. That purchase is one-off. It does not renew.
  • A short bot-check token from Cloudflare Turnstile when you sign in, create an account, or send the contact form. We send that token to Cloudflare to confirm the request is from a person. We do not use it for ads.

Why we store it

To run your account, show your history, enforce free-run limits, and provide Plus if you pay. If you send the contact form, we email your name, email address, and message to our inbox so we can reply. We do not sell your data. Practice scores are for your own training. They are not official assessment results.

How long we keep it

We keep account and session data while your account exists. Payment references stay as long as Stripe and tax rules require. You can export or delete your account from Settings.

Your rights

You can request a copy of your data, or delete your account, from Settings. Deleting your account removes your profile, practice history, and access records from RailFocus. Stripe may retain payment records they are required to keep.
