Privacy information
Language Bridge is operated by Ali Akhtar under the Language Bridge developer name. Contact: Aliakhtar235@gmail.com.
This page describes the existing app and its account features. The Google Play release is being prepared; public release and live payments have not yet been activated. The app is completely ads-free and includes no advertising SDKs or advertising trackers.
Information used and why
| Information | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Email; salted password hash if a password is chosen | Account access, verification, password recovery and support. A plain-text password is not stored. |
| Account/session identifiers and a hashed app device identifier | Authenticate requests and enforce one active session per account. A new-device login replaces the previous session. |
| Sign-in provider identity | Link an authenticated Google/Firebase identity to the app account when that provider is configured. |
| Subscription identifiers, access status and encrypted Play purchase tokens | Verify and restore access when Play Billing is enabled. Language Bridge does not collect card or bank-account details. |
| Optional recipient name and email for complimentary access | Reserve and manage an invitation. Recipients choose their own passwords after email verification. |
| Requests, security and support information | Respond to support/deletion requests, prevent abuse and diagnose service problems. Hosting and email services may process connection or delivery metadata. |
Device storage and pronunciation
The app stores preferences such as interface and study-language choices locally and uses account/session state for sign-in. Bundled lesson material and credited photographs remain part of the app. Speech uses installed system text-to-speech voices; a system voice provider may use network processing under its own settings. The app does not request microphone recordings for pronunciation playback.
Service providers
IONOS provides the existing hosting infrastructure. When configured, the email provider delivers verification and recovery messages; Google handles native sign-in, Google Play billing and store reviews. Browser sign-in may use Firebase where configured. Each provider processes the information needed for its function under its own terms. No advertising network is included.
Retention and deletion
Account information is kept while the account is active so that access can be provided. Standard app sessions expire after 30 days and are revoked on logout or replacement-device login. Verification/recovery challenges have limited validity; expiry does not mean every stored record is immediately erased.
You may request deletion at any time using the account and data deletion page, including by email without reinstalling the app. On completion, active identity/contact details, sessions and sign-in links are removed or anonymised, access is revoked and stored Play tokens are cleared. The operator must also handle external identity records and existing backups.
Some pseudonymous transaction and security records may need to remain for applicable accounting duties, fraud prevention or dispute resolution. Any necessary exception and the applicable retention period are explained in the response to your request. For questions about the records held for your account, contact support.
Your choices
Contact the operator to request access to, correction of or deletion of your personal information, or to raise a privacy concern. Use device settings to manage local storage and voice providers. Manage or cancel any subscription separately through Google Play. You may also contact the competent data-protection authority about unresolved privacy concerns.
Children and audience
A target-audience declaration for the Google Play release has not yet been finalized. This page does not claim a child-directed release or authorize a child to register independently. A parent or guardian may contact support about an account or deletion request.
Changes
This page will be updated when actual service providers, release behavior or data practices change. Its update date appears above.
