Privacy Policy

Your privacy is very important to us. Accordingly, we have developed this Policy in order for you to understand how we collect, use, communicate and disclose and make use of personal information. The following outlines our privacy policy.

1. Information We Collect

• Email addresses (e.g., when you contact us directly)
• Mistake reports you choose to send from a lesson: the lesson, the line and your optional note. They reach us as an email without your name, email address or IP address; the website itself keeps no copy.
• Messages you send with the contact form: your optional name, your email address and your message. They reach us as an email, so that we can reply; the website itself keeps no copy.
• If you create an account (it's optional): your email address; your password, stored only as a salted one-way hash that cannot be turned back into the password; the lessons you've marked done (or not done again) and when; the flashcards you save (the lines and words on them, your decks and your flashcard options) and each time you reviewed a card: when, how well you knew it (Again, Hard, Good or Easy) and how long you took; the name you choose for your comments, the comments you write on lessons (with the lesson and when) and the comments you report; when the account was created and last used; and a record of each device's sign-in (a session), which ends after a year without use or when you log out. Nothing else about you or your devices is kept.

We use your account only to save your progress and flashcards and show them on the devices you log in on, to show your comments to other learners under the name you chose, and to email you the codes that confirm your address or let you choose a new password. Only learners logged in to an account can read comments: they see yours with that name and a small tag of your level (the level of the next lesson your progress leads to, such as "A1"; "Moderator" for a moderator), never with your email address or anything else about your progress. A comment you delete disappears from the website, and its text from our records, at once; that you posted one at that time stays (so that an account can post only so many comments a day) until you delete your account. We don't send newsletters or marketing, and we never sell or share your account. The account is stored with Cloudflare (Cloudflare D1), and the codes are sent through Cloudflare's email service. You can delete your account and everything saved with it at any time from your account page.

The contact form is protected by Cloudflare Turnstile, which checks that a person, not a bot, is sending it. To do so, Cloudflare looks at signals from your browser and device, as described in the Turnstile privacy addendum. Turnstile loads only on the contact page.

2. Use of Cookies and Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the website: which pages are visited, roughly where visitors are (country or city) and what device and browser they use. Google Analytics sets its own cookies for this, and Google processes the data as described in How Google uses information from sites that use its services. Visitors from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Quebec and Brazil are asked first, and Google Analytics runs for them only if they accept. We do not use advertising cookies. Your lesson settings (such as "Hide English" or the playback speed) are saved in your own browser, as described in our Cookie Policy. Your lesson progress is kept only if you create an account: it is saved to your account, and while you're logged in your browser keeps a copy of it so that pages can show it at once (without an account, your browser lists the lessons you mark done on a visit until you close the tab, so that an account made on that visit can save them). Your flashcards are kept in your own browser, and only there unless you have an account: then they are also saved to it, and logging out removes them from the browser while they stay in your account. When you're logged in, a cookie keeps you logged in.

You can control the use of cookies and site data through your browser settings.

3. How We Use and Store Your Data

• We use personal data only for the purposes specified at the time of collection or for related purposes with your consent.
• We store data securely and retain it only for as long as necessary to fulfill its intended purpose.
• We do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties.
• We may share data with trusted third parties (like hosting providers) under strict confidentiality agreements.

We may use trusted third-party services to support our website and communication with you, such as email marketing platforms, payment providers, or content delivery networks. These providers only access your data as necessary and are required to handle it in compliance with their own privacy policies and applicable laws.

If you are located outside the United States, please note that your data may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States or other countries where our service providers are based. We take steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

We process your data under the following legal bases: your consent, the performance of a contract, compliance with legal obligations, and our legitimate interests in operating our website and improving user experience.

4. Your Rights Under GDPR and CCPA

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area or California, you have the right to:

• Access, correct, or delete your personal information
• Object to processing or request data portability
• Withdraw your consent at any time, where applicable
• File a complaint with a data protection authority

To exercise these rights, contact us through our contact form.

5. Children’s Privacy

This site is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware of such data being collected without parental consent, we will delete it.

6. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page, and we encourage you to review this policy periodically.

7. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data against unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure.

8. Contacting Us

We are committed to conducting our business in accordance with these principles to ensure that the confidentiality of personal information is protected and maintained.
