Last Updated: October 18, 2025

Privacy Policy

EchoPod (“we,” “our,” or “us”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our language learning app.

1. Information We Collect

Account Information

We collect your login credentials through the Supabase Flutter SDK to create and manage your account. This may include your email address or third-party login details (e.g., Google or Apple, if enabled).

App Usage Data

We capture anonymous data about how you use the app—lesson choices, progress, and session duration—to improve features and personalize recommendations.

Crash & Performance Data

We rely on the Firebase Flutter SDK to collect anonymous crash logs and performance metrics. This helps us identify bugs and improve stability. The data does not identify you.

Device Information

We may gather technical metadata such as device type, OS version, and app build to ensure compatibility and troubleshoot issues quickly.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • Provide authentication and account services (via Supabase).
  • Diagnose crashes and improve performance (via Firebase).
  • Deliver listening, echo training, and AI subtitle features.
  • Improve recommendations and track learning progress.
  • Communicate important updates or policy changes.

3. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal data. We may share limited information only when necessary:

  • Service Providers
    • Supabase. Authentication and storage of account/progress data.
    • Firebase. Anonymous crash reporting and performance analytics.
  • Legal Requirements. When required to comply with applicable laws or legitimate requests.

4. Data Storage & Retention

  • Account and progress data are stored securely via Supabase.
  • Crash and diagnostics data are stored anonymously in Firebase.
  • Temporary audio recordings are not retained unless you explicitly save them.
  • You may request deletion of your account and related data at any time.

Account Deletion

Your account is scheduled for permanent deletion in 30 days. If you log in again during this period, the deletion request will be automatically canceled and your account will remain active.

5. Your Rights

Depending on your region (e.g., GDPR, CCPA), you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or export your data, and to withdraw consent for certain processing. Contact us at echopod@clothpath.com to exercise your rights.

6. Security

We implement technical and organizational measures—alongside Supabase and Firebase security controls—to protect your data. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

7. Children’s Privacy

EchoPod is not intended for children under 13 years of age (or the minimum age in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updates will be posted in the app and/or on our website with a new “Last Updated” date.
