Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may share data with service providers who help us operate the App (e.g., hosting, analytics), strictly under contracts that limit their use of your data. We may also share data if required by law or to protect our rights, users, or the public.

Data retention

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer period is required by law. You can request deletion of your account at any time from your Profile (“Delete my account”).

Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to protect your data. However, no system is perfectly secure.

Children

LingoSpin is not directed to children under the age where parental consent is required in your region. If you believe a child has provided us personal data, please contact us to request deletion.

International transfers

Your data may be processed in countries outside your residence. We take steps to ensure appropriate protections consistent with applicable law.

Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or port your data, or object to/limit certain processing. You can manage much of your data in the App (profile edits and account deletion).

For other requests, email patmillerson@gmail.com.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be highlighted in the App. Your continued use after changes means you accept the updated policy.
