Privacy Policy

Last updated: 7 November 2026

This policy explains how the Yaplingo mobile app (“Yaplingo”, “we”) handles your information. Yaplingo is provided by Artur Maksimov (individual developer, trading as Yaplingo), Jalan Sunset Road No. 39B, Seminyak, Kuta, Bali 80361, Indonesia. Contact: support@yaplingo.app.

1. Short version

• No account, no name, no ads, no selling of data.
• Your lessons and settings are stored on your device.
• Messages you send to the AI tutor are processed by our server and our AI provider only to generate the tutor’s reply.
• Voice input and voice output use your phone’s built-in speech services.

2. Information we process

• App install ID — a random identifier created on your device. It lets us count free messages, apply fair-use limits and link your subscription. It is not linked to your name, email or phone number.
• Tutor conversations — the text of your recent messages and the tutor’s settings (languages, level, goal) are sent to our server when you chat. We do not keep conversation content after the reply is generated, except short-lived technical logs (deleted within 30 days) used to fix errors and prevent abuse.
• Usage counters — number of messages per day, stored for fair-use limits.
• Purchases — subscriptions are handled by Apple App Store or Google Play and managed through RevenueCat. We receive the subscription status (active / expired, plan, renewal dates) linked to the app install ID. We never see your card details.
• Voice — speech recognition and text-to-speech are performed by your device’s operating system (Apple or Google speech services). Yaplingo receives only the recognised text. Apple and Google process audio under their own privacy policies.
• On-device data — your progress, dictionary, streaks and preferences are stored locally on your device and are removed when you uninstall the app.

3. Service providers

• Anthropic (AI model provider) — generates the tutor’s replies. Under its commercial terms, data sent through its API is not used to train its models.
• Cloudflare — hosts our server.
• RevenueCat, Apple, Google — subscriptions and payments.

These providers act on our behalf and may process data in the United States and other countries with appropriate safeguards.

4. Purposes and legal bases

We process data to provide the tutor (performance of a contract), to prevent abuse and keep the service stable (legitimate interests) and to manage subscriptions (contract and legal obligations).

5. Retention

Conversation content is not stored after a reply is generated, apart from technical logs kept up to 30 days. Usage counters are kept up to 12 months. Subscription records are kept as long as required by tax and accounting rules.

6. Your rights

You can ask us to access or delete the data linked to your app install ID, or object to processing, by writing to support@yaplingo.app (include the install ID shown in the app’s settings, if available). Uninstalling the app deletes all on-device data. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your App Store or Google Play account settings. You may also complain to your local data-protection authority.

7. Children

Yaplingo is intended for users aged 13 and older and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has used the app, contact us and we will delete the related data.

8. Security

Data is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Access to our server is restricted.

9. Changes

We will post any changes on this page and update the date above.
