Privacy Policy

Foghlai ("we", "our", or "the app") is an IELTS practice application that helps users practise speaking, listening, reading, writing, mock exams, and review tasks. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, which third-party services may process it, and what choices you have.

• Account information: such as your email address, display name, and basic account settings.
• Learning information: such as your study goals, practice activity, answers, scores, feedback, and progress.
• Speaking and writing content: such as recordings, transcripts, writing drafts, and responses you submit for practice feedback.
• App preferences: such as language, theme, and other settings you choose.
• Technical information: limited information needed to keep the service secure, reliable, and working properly.

• Create and manage your account.
• Save your practice history, progress, scores, and review items.
• Provide speaking transcription, pronunciation assessment, AI feedback, and mock speaking interactions.
• Generate listening audio and other practice materials.
• Maintain security, prevent abuse, debug errors, and improve reliability.
• Send account-related emails such as confirmation, password reset, email-change confirmation, and important service notices.
• Respond to support, privacy, or account deletion requests.

We do not sell your personal information.

Foghlai uses AI and speech services to provide features such as transcription, pronunciation assessment, writing feedback, speaking feedback, and real-time mock speaking practice.

When you use these features, your recordings, transcripts, writing drafts, answers, and related learning content may be sent to third-party AI or speech providers only as needed to provide the requested feature.

We do not sell your learning content. We also do not intentionally use your recordings, transcripts, answers, or writing drafts to train our own models. Where provider settings or API terms allow configuration, we aim to use services in a way that avoids using your content for provider-side model training.

AI-generated scores and feedback are for practice and self-review only. They are not official IELTS scores and should not be treated as a guarantee of exam results.

We use trusted third-party service providers to operate Foghlai. These services help us with account management, website hosting, email delivery, secure storage, AI feedback, speech processing, service operation, and security maintenance.

Our current main service providers include Supabase, Vercel, Resend, Microsoft Azure, OpenAI, and Google Cloud.

These providers may process limited personal data or learning content only as needed to provide the relevant feature.

When you use Google sign-in, we receive basic account information through Supabase Auth, such as your email address, display name, and avatar, to create and identify your account. We do not request access to your Gmail, Google Drive, contacts, calendar, or other Google data.

Your account data and practice records are stored using Supabase with access controls designed to keep each user's data separate. Passwords are handled by Supabase Auth and are not stored by Foghlai in plain text.

We use HTTPS for data transmission. We also use platform logs and error information to diagnose problems, monitor reliability, and protect the service.

No online service can guarantee absolute security, but we aim to use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards appropriate for a small independent learning product.

Speaking practice requires microphone access so that Foghlai can record your response, transcribe it, and generate feedback.

Your browser will ask for microphone permission before recording. You can revoke microphone permission at any time through your browser or device settings.

Voice recordings are used to provide speaking practice features such as transcription, playback, pronunciation assessment, and feedback. We aim to limit retention of recordings where possible, while keeping the learning results needed for your practice history.

Foghlai uses cookies and similar browser storage mainly for authentication sessions, language preferences, theme preferences, and basic app functionality. We do not use advertising cookies. We may rely on hosting or platform-level logs and analytics to understand reliability, usage, and errors.

You can update certain account and learning profile information in the app.

You may request deletion of your account and associated data through the app where available or by contacting us. After deletion, some limited records may remain temporarily in backups, logs, or provider systems as required for security, abuse prevention, legal compliance, or normal infrastructure operation.

You may also contact us with privacy-related questions, correction requests, or data deletion requests.

Foghlai is intended for users preparing for language exams and is not designed for children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information without appropriate consent, please contact us.

We may update this Privacy Policy as Foghlai changes. When we make meaningful changes, we will update the "Last updated" date and, where appropriate, provide additional notice.
