Data stored on your device

Third-party services

Google AdMob may collect advertising identifiers and usage data to show ads, subject to Google's Privacy Policy. You can limit ad personalization in your Android settings.

The app requests INTERNET permission for ads. Audio playback and practice content work offline except for ad loading.

The app is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes

We may update this policy. Continued use of the app after changes means you accept the updated policy.
