ProctorU is committed to providing you the best test-taking experience possible while protecting the integrity of your exam so that everyone has a fair chance to perform their best on test day. We take privacy and exam integrity very seriously but we also realize that some privacy terms may be confusing.

Please remember:

• ProctorU will only monitor you during your exam session. • Your personal information is safe and will never be shared or sold to a third party. • ProctorU will not access any personal data not required for the exam itself. • Prior to installing the extension, Google Chrome will ask for your permission. • The permissions you agree to are only required during the exam and will never be used outside of the exam session.

What does the Google Chrome Extension privacy disclosure really mean? Here is a short description that shows how we use these features:

• READ AND CHANGE ALL YOUR DATA ON THE WEBSITES YOU VISIT - This may be a little misleading, but ProctorU uses this during your exam to ensure you remain on permitted pages or sites. For example, your facilitator might restrict the use of another webpage during the exam. • DISPLAY NOTIFICATIONS - This permission allows the proctor to send you a notification while in your exam. • COMMUNICATE WITH COOPERATING WEBSITES - During your exam, ProctorU may need to communicate with your test delivery provider or learning management system to ensure all the necessary conditions are set for an optimal testing experience.

    This is absolutely ridiculous. My test was at 120p and it was 450p and I told them; hey the system is not working and its no way I'm not in a test taking mode. I'm going to reschedule my exam. This system needs to do better an d test their equipment and stop blaming our computer/laptop. no stars for me......

    The product is awful, yet somehow the customer support is worse. One star is much too generous.

    ProctorU is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this extension.
