1. Information We Collect

Account Information

When you create an account, we collect your email address and name. If you sign up with a social provider (Google, Microsoft), we receive your name and email from that provider.

Audio Data

During lessons, we process audio from your microphone and shared screen/tab to generate transcriptions. Audio is streamed for real-time processing and is not permanently stored. Only the resulting text transcripts are saved to your account.

Learning Data

We store your lesson transcripts, vocabulary items, flashcards, and study progress. This data is necessary to provide the core functionality of ChickenDuck.

Uploaded Files

If you upload files for vocabulary extraction, we process the file content and store extracted vocabulary. The original file is stored and can be deleted at any time.

Usage Data

We collect basic usage analytics (pages visited, features used, session duration) to improve ChickenDuck. This data is aggregated and not tied to individual users.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

• Provide and improve ChickenDuck's features
• Process your subscription and payments
• Send important account notifications
• Respond to your support requests
• Analyze usage patterns to improve the product

We do not use your learning data to train AI models. Your transcripts and vocabulary are private to you.

3. Data Sharing

We share data only with service providers who help us operate ChickenDuck:
