Curious Maths Policies
Reward Policy
Curious Maths uses progress rewards to encourage consistent mathematical practice. Rewards are learning signals, not money or prizes.
Last updated: August 7, 2026
Plain English Summary
This summary is for quick understanding. The detailed sections below explain the full policy.
- XP, streaks, badges, titles, and challenge points are motivational learning signals with no cash value.
- Reward outcomes are calculated from server-verified learning activity rather than values supplied by the browser.
- A learner should never need to pay to preserve earned academic progress.
- Rewards are designed to reinforce useful learning behaviour, not endless usage or compulsive engagement.
What Rewards Mean
XP, badges, streaks, titles, mastery indicators, and challenge progress help learners see effort and progress over time. They do not represent grades, examination marks, money, cryptocurrency, store credit, or transferable property.
How Rewards Are Earned
Practice outcomes are verified by Curious Maths server-side systems. The learner submits their mathematical work or answer; the application determines correctness, progression, and any resulting reward. Client-side display code is not the authority for XP or achievements.
Free And Pro Learners
Free and Pro learners may both earn progress on practice they are entitled to access. Pro changes the breadth of available practice, not the integrity of scoring. Learning Hub articles and interactive visualizers remain available without a Pro subscription.
Healthy Use
Reward systems should support learning rather than pressure a child to remain online. Streaks and badges are secondary to understanding. Parents and learners should feel comfortable stopping a session when study goals are complete.
Corrections
If a technical fault creates an incorrect reward or progress record, Curious Maths may correct the affected record to restore accurate learning history. Corrections should not be used to penalize legitimate learning activity.
