I collect as little as possible, sell nothing, and don't track you across the web. If you never create an account, I don't know who you are.
If you use the free tier without an account:
Nothing personally identifiable. Words you plot go through my API proxy and may be cached as text only — no IP address or session ID attached.
If you create an account:
Your email address — currently that's the whole list. I use it to manage your access and, rarely, to announce something significant: a new language, a major feature.
If you make a purchase:
Stripe handles payment entirely. I never see or store your card details; Stripe's privacy policy covers what they collect.
Words and their IPA transcriptions live in a shared database with no user identifier attached — I can't tell who plotted what. The data improves accuracy for everyone.
No Google Analytics, no Meta pixels, no ad tracking, no third-party marketing cookies.
Want your email removed? Write me and it's gone. Phoneme cache entries can't be individually identified or removed — they're anonymous by design.
In the EU, GDPR applies and I honor it: the lawful basis for holding your email is the consent you gave at signup, and you can withdraw it anytime. In California, CCPA applies — I don't sell personal data.
Account emails stay until you ask me to delete them. Phoneme cache entries persist indefinitely — they're the dictionary, not personal data.
If I start collecting anything new, this policy updates and account holders hear about it by email before it takes effect. The current version always lives at iyrow.com/privacy.
