01
What the app stores on your device
To work as a daily habit, the app saves a few things locally on your phone:
- The first name you enter, used only to greet you in the app
- Optionally, your name written in Hangul, used in example sentences
- Your daily reminder time
- Your language, level, and speaking-speed preferences
- A history of the last 30 days of words, and which ones you marked as learned
- Your last 50 pronunciation attempts: the word asked for, the text the recogniser heard, and the result (no audio)
This information is held in your device's local app storage. It is never uploaded, never shared, and is not accessible to the developer or to anyone else.
02
What the app does not do
- It does not create an account or ask for an email address or password
- It does not contain analytics, tracking, or advertising software
- It does not use cookies or advertising identifiers
- It does not share data with third parties, because it holds no data to share
03
Notifications
The daily word notification is scheduled locally by your phone. Nothing is sent from or to a server to deliver it. You can turn notifications off at any time in the app's Settings, or in your device settings.
04
Pronunciation audio
Spoken Korean is produced by the text-to-speech engine built into your device (Apple or Google, depending on your phone). What that engine does with the text it is given is governed by your device manufacturer's own privacy policy. Korean Daily sends nothing to any service of its own.
05
Microphone and pronunciation practice
The pronunciation practice feature (“Say it”) uses your device's microphone to check how you pronounce a Korean word. Your voice is recognised entirely on your device, by the speech recognition built into it. Nothing is recorded, and no audio is ever sent to any server, not the developer's, and not Apple's or Google's. If your device cannot recognise Korean without a network connection, the feature turns itself off rather than falling back to online recognition.
The microphone is requested only the first time you tap “Say it”, never when the app launches, and you can refuse it: the rest of the app works normally without it.
No audio is stored at any point. The app keeps a local list of your last 50 attempts (the word asked for, the text the recogniser heard, and the result) so you can follow your own progress. That list stays on your phone, is visible in Settings, can be cleared there at any time, and is erased by Reset progress.
06
Children
Korean Daily is suitable for all ages and does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children under 13.
07
Deleting your data
Use Reset progress in the app's Settings to erase your name, history and preferences immediately. Deleting the app from your device removes everything it has stored. There is nothing held elsewhere that would need to be requested or deleted.
08
Changes to this policy
If a future version of the app introduces a feature that handles data differently, this page will be updated before that version is released, and the date at the top will change.
