Trademarks

"SQL Server" is a trademark of Microsoft Corporation. "IBM DB2" is a trademark of IBM Corporation. SQLMentor is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any of these organizations.

4. Certification Practice Exams

The certification practice exams on SQLMentor (including 1Z0-071, 1Z0-082, 1Z0-149, DP-300, and PG-A) are created for educational and practice purposes only. They are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sourced from Oracle, Microsoft, or the PostgreSQL Global Development Group.

5. In-Browser SQL Editor

The SQL editor runs entirely in your browser using sql.js (SQLite compiled to WebAssembly). All query execution happens client-side — no data is sent to or stored on any server.

The editor is provided as-is for learning and experimentation. It simulates multiple SQL dialects but may not fully replicate the behavior of production database systems. Do not rely on it for production use cases.
