Data Fiduciary: Saurabh Khatri, London - SE10 8GD,United Kingdom (GB)

Saurabh Khatri, trading as Vokido ("Vokido," "we," "our," or "us") respects your privacy. This Policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how long we keep it, and how you and your child can control it when using the Vokido app (the "App") and related services. 

Vokido Beta Privacy Principles

• We’re deeply committed to creating a safe and secure online environment for all of our users.

• We use voice data strictly to improve the learning experience by assessing User's speech specifically their fluency and pronunciation and providing feedback to the user. Voice recordings are used solely to provide real-time feedback and to improve the efficacy of our educational tools and provide high-quality learning experience.

• We do not sell your child’s data to third parties. Your trust is our foundation. We strictly prohibit the sale of personal information. Our business is built on the value of the education we provide, not on the monetization of your family's data.

1. Scope

This policy applies to learners using Vokido and, where applicable, parents/guardians providing consent for learners under 18.

3. Why we use this data (purposes)

We process data to:

• Authenticate accounts and prevent fraud/abuse.

• Deliver the learning experience (voice/chat, exercises, progress).

• Generate learning feedback, transcripts, and summaries.

• Troubleshoot crashes and improve app performance.

• Send learning reminders and progress-related push notifications, with your consent. We take a non-manipulative approach — notifications are tied strictly to your learning progress. You can withdraw this consent anytime from device settings or within the App.

• Understand how learners use the App and improve the product experience (Mixpanel analytics — all users)

• Advertising measurement features apply only to adult users (18+),  governed by additional disclosures in Section 5. 

4. Children’s privacy (under 18)

If the learner is under 18, Vokido requires parent/guardian consent before processing the learner’s personal data. Vokido does not run ads and does not do targeted advertising for children. We strictly  do not engage in behavioural tracking of children beyond what is strictly necessary to deliver the learning experience and provide feedback.  .

5. Ads and marketing

Vokido does not show ads within the app. We do not use children's data for any advertising or marketing purpose.

We run ads on external platforms and use third-party tools — Firebase/Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Meta Ads — to measure campaign performance, track app installs & in-app  interactions, and reach similar audiences. This applies only to adult users aged 18 or older. Advertising SDKs are not active for learners under 18.

If you are an adult user and wish to opt out of advertising measurement, contact us at support@vokido.co to limit ad tracking.

6. Sharing and service providers (processors)

We may share data with vetted service providers strictly to operate Vokido, such as:

• SMS provider to send OTP messages

• Cloud infrastructure for hosting and storage which include Supabase ,Vercel 

• Crash reporting/analytics to improve stability

• AI/ML providers including OpenAI, Gemini, CartesiaAI to process transcripts/feedback for the learning experience

• Mixpanel — product analytics to understand how learners use the App (all users; no advertising use) 

• Sentry — crash reporting and error diagnostics to improve app stability

• LiveKit — real-time voice infrastructure for processing live voice sessions

• Firebase/Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Ads — advertising measurement and campaign performance (adult users 18+ only) 
  
  

We may onboard additional AI/ML providers as the product evolves. We will update this policy before any new provider processes user data.

We do not sell personal data.
