VocaSeoul ("the app", "we") is a Korean vocabulary learning app for English speakers. This policy explains what information the app collects, how it is used, and the choices you have. It applies to the VocaSeoul app on iOS and Android.
You can use VocaSeoul as a guest without signing in. Your bookmarks, notes, and study progress are then stored only on your device.
| Information | When | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Name and email address | If you sign in with Google or Apple | Account sign-in and display of your account |
| Account ID (user ID) | If you sign in | Identify your account and sync your data |
| Bookmarks, notes, study progress, game records | If you sign in | Sync across your devices (cloud storage) |
| Purchase history (Premium status) | If you purchase Premium or restore purchases | Unlock Premium features |
| Device and advertising identifiers, approximate location (derived from IP address), ad interaction data | When ads are shown in the free version | Serving and measuring advertising |
| App usage data (such as screens viewed and features used) | While using the app | Analytics and improving the app |
| Crash and performance data | When the app crashes or runs slowly | Fixing bugs and improving stability |
We do not collect your precise location, contacts, photos, microphone recordings, health data, or financial account details. Payments are processed by Apple or Google; we never receive your card number.
The free version of the app shows ads from Google AdMob. AdMob may use advertising identifiers to show and measure ads. On iOS, the app asks for your permission through Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt before tracking, and you can change your choice any time in Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking. Where required by law (for example in the EEA and UK), the app asks for your consent before showing personalized ads. Premium removes ads.
The app relies on the following third-party services, which process data under their own privacy policies:
We use the information above to run the app, sync your data, provide Premium, show and measure ads, analyze usage, and fix problems. We do not sell your personal information.
Data stored in your account is kept until you delete your account. To delete it, open the app and go to Settings > Account > Delete account. This permanently deletes your account and the cloud data associated with it. You can also request deletion by email at the address below. Data stored only on your device is removed when you uninstall the app.
VocaSeoul is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
You can use the app without an account, delete your account in the app, reset your advertising identifier in your device settings, and withdraw ad-related consent in your device or app settings. Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information; contact us to exercise these rights.
We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it was last changed.
