2. In short
- This website sets no cookies, uses no tracking and loads no third-party content (no external fonts, scripts or videos).
- If you join the waitlist, we store your email address to let you know when the app launches.
- In the app, your voice recordings and texts are sent to service providers for processing (see section 6). We do not store conversations on our server.
3. Hosting and server log files
The website and the app backend run on a server provided by Amazon Web Services (Amazon Web Services EMEA SARL, Luxembourg) in the Stockholm data centre (EU).
When you visit the website, the server automatically records technical information in log files: IP address, date and time, requested address, status code and your browser identifier (user agent). This is necessary to operate the site securely and reliably (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Log files are deleted after 14 days at the latest.
4. Waitlist
When you sign up, we store your email address, the selected language, the time and your consent. The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). Before we email you for the first time, we will ask you to confirm your sign-up.
We use the address only to inform you about the app's launch and access to the testing phase, and we do not share it. You can withdraw your consent at any time by sending an informal email to the address above; we will then delete your entry. We will delete the waitlist at the latest once it is no longer needed for the launch.
[Once an email delivery service is used, add: name, location, legal basis of the data processing agreement.]
5. Contact by email
If you write to us, we process your details to answer your request (Art. 6(1)(b) or (f) GDPR) and delete them once they are no longer needed for that purpose.
6. The app (testing phase)
So that the app can talk with you, your voice recordings or typed texts and the conversation so far are sent to our server and forwarded from there to the following services:
- OpenAI (OpenAI, L.L.C., USA or OpenAI Ireland Ltd.): recognition of German speech, generating the tutor's replies and German speech output. [Check and state the basis for the transfer to the USA, e.g. EU-US Data Privacy Framework or standard contractual clauses; note on retention at OpenAI.]
- ABAIR (Trinity College Dublin, Ireland): recognition of Irish speech and Irish speech output.
The grammar check (An Gramadóir) runs on our own server. Conversations are not stored there; the conversation history only stays on your device during the session. The legal basis is the provision of the feature you are using (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). Please do not share sensitive personal information in conversations.
7. Your rights
You have the right of access, rectification, erasure and restriction of processing, data portability, the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests and the right to withdraw consent with effect for the future. You can also lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority.
