Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 4, 2026
Introduction
"Whit Did Ye Say?" ("the App") is developed and maintained by Duncan at SlammDunk Productions ("we", "us", or "our"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our mobile application.
Information We Collect
Information You Provide
The App does not require you to create an account to use its core features (translation, dictionary, quiz, pronunciation challenge, daily phrases, and sentences).
If you choose to Join the Clan (our optional email newsletter), you provide your email address. This email is stored locally on your device and will be used for app updates, feature announcements, and merch drops when we integrate our email service. You can unsubscribe at any time.
Automatically Collected Information
The App may collect limited technical information to improve performance and user experience:
- Device information: Device type, operating system version, and screen resolution for display optimisation.
- Usage data: Anonymous, aggregated usage statistics such as which features are used most frequently. This data cannot be used to identify individual users.
- Advertising data: If you are a free-tier user, the App displays ads via Google AdMob. AdMob may collect device identifiers and usage data to serve relevant advertisements. We request non-personalised ads by default. Please refer to Google's Privacy Policy for details.
Local Storage
The App stores the following data locally on your device using standard device storage:
- Preferences (theme, sound settings, notification preferences)
- Favourites (saved words and phrases)
- Quiz scores and game history
- Onboarding status
- Translation usage counts (for free-tier daily limits)
- Pro upgrade purchase status
- Join the Clan email and consent status (if provided)
This data is not transmitted to our servers or any third party (except as noted below for specific services).
Third-Party Services
The App uses the following third-party services:
- ElevenLabs: For text-to-speech audio generation. When you use the "Listen" or pronunciation features, text is sent to ElevenLabs' servers to generate audio. Please refer to ElevenLabs' Privacy Policy for details on how they handle data.
- AI Translation: When you use the translation feature, your input text is processed by an AI service to generate translations. No personally identifiable information is included in these requests.
- Google AdMob: For displaying advertisements to free-tier users. AdMob may collect device identifiers and interaction data. We request non-personalised ads only. See Google's Advertising Privacy Policy.
- Google Play Billing: For processing in-app purchases (Pro upgrade). Purchase transactions are handled entirely by Google Play. We do not collect or store payment information. See Google Play's Terms of Service.
Data Retention
All user preferences, favourites, scores, and email signups are stored locally on your device. We do not maintain any server-side database of user data. If you uninstall the App, all locally stored data will be deleted.
Children's Privacy
The App does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. The App is rated for "Everyone" and contains no inappropriate content.
Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the limited information processed by the App. All communications with third-party services use encrypted (HTTPS) connections.
Your Rights (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you (stored locally on your device).
- Rectify any inaccurate data.
- Erase your data by uninstalling the App or clearing app data.
