1. INTRODUCTION AND SCOPE
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") is issued by Visionary AI. ("we," "us," or "our"). It governs the data practices for our mobile application, Duo Speak - AI Language Learning (the "App"), and all related services (the "Services").
About Duo Speak: Duo Speak is a language learning and translation application that helps users practice conversation, translate content, and build vocabulary through voice-enabled tools. Core features include but are not limited to an AI Tutor and AI Chat Bot for text and voice conversation practice with customizable character voice, image, speed, pitch, and volume; a Language Translator (image, voice, and text input); real-time Conversation translation between users speaking different languages; a Document Translator for PDF, text, and DOC files; a topic-based Phrasebook; an AI Dictionary; and Offline Translation. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your data to provide these services.
This Policy is a legally binding agreement. By downloading, installing, or using our Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the data practices described herein. If you do not agree with this Policy, you must not use the Services. For the purposes of applicable data protection laws, such as the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we are the Data Controller of your Personal Data.
2. OUR PRIVACY COMMITMENT
Our approach to privacy is founded on the following core principles:
a. Transparency: We are committed to being open and clear about how we handle your data, especially in the context of our AI-powered features.
b. Purpose Limitation: We will only collect and process your data for the specified, explicit, and legitimate purposes articulated in this Policy.
c. Data Minimization: We adhere to the principle of collecting only the data that is strictly necessary to provide and improve our services.
d. Responsible AI: We are committed to the ethical use of artificial intelligence. A core tenet of this commitment is that we do not use your personal content to train our AI models.
e. Security by Design: We integrate robust security measures to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your Personal Data.
f. Local Processing (User Media): For our current image-based translation feature, photos are processed locally on your device. Other content types (such as documents and voice input) may be transmitted to our servers for processing, as detailed in Section 3.
3. DATA WE COLLECT AND PROCESS
User-Provided Content (Processed Ephemerally for AI Functionality): This is the data you provide to enable the core AI language learning and translation features of the App. We have engineered our systems to treat this data with the highest level of privacy.
a. What we collect:
i. Files (including but not limited to: PDF, Docx and Txt) that you upload to the App for translating("User Media").
ii. Images: Photographs that you capture via the Cam Translator (part of the Language Translator feature) or upload through this feature ("User Media").
iii. Voice Recordings and Text Input ("User Prompts"): Audio recordings and text messages you provide when interacting with the AI Tutor, AI Chat Bot, Language Translator, or Conversation feature
b. How and why we process it:
i. When you use an AI feature, your User Media and User Prompts are securely transmitted to our servers for the sole purpose of real-time processing by our AI models to generate your requested result.
ii. Immediate Deletion from Servers: After the AI processing is complete and the result is delivered to you, the source User Media and User Prompts are immediately and permanently deleted from our servers. They are not stored, cached, or logged on our server infrastructure.
iii. Currently, all image processing performed through Cam Translator feature (part of the Language Translator feature) are performed locally on your device hardware. We do not transmit, store, or process your User Media on our servers.
Technical & Usage Data (Collected Automatically for Service Operation and Advertising): To ensure our App functions correctly, to resolve technical issues, and to support our advertising-based model, we automatically collect certain technical data.
a. Device and Network Information: Your IP address, device manufacturer and model, operating system version, screen dimensions, time zone, network state (e.g., Wi-Fi), and system language.
b. Application and Advertising Identifiers: Your device's advertising identifier (e.g., Google Advertising ID on Android), the App's version, and unique device identifiers.
c. Usage and Interaction Data: Information about your interactions with the Services, such as app launches, features used, time spent on pages, and clicks. This also includes information about your interaction with advertisements shown to you.
Communications Data (Voluntarily Provided): When you voluntarily contact us for customer support or to provide feedback, we collect your email address and the content of your communications. This data is used exclusively to respond to your inquiries. This also includes any content or images submitted through the in-app reporting mechanism within our AI Features, used solely to review and act on your report.
4. OUR USE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)
Transparency in our use of AI is a cornerstone of our commitment to you.
a. AI Functionality: The core purpose of our App is to use generative AI to power conversational language tutoring, real-time translation, and other language-learning functionalities based on your input.
b. No Training on Your Data: We state unequivocally that your User Media and the resulting AI-generated responses, translations, or transcriptions are not used to train or improve our AI models. Your content is your own, and we do not use it for our model development.
c. Third-Party AI Providers: To provide specific features, we may utilize specialized AI models from third-party providers. We use Qwen's APIs for many of our core AI language learning features. When you use these features, your input data is sent to Qwen's API for processing. This data is processed according to Qwen's API Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
6. THIRD PARTY SERVICES AND PARTNERS SDKS
