Privacy Policy
Effective Date: Loading...
Welcome to ExpressNaturally ("us," "we," or "our"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information in connection with your use of our website and AI-powered language learning tools (collectively, the "Service").
1. Information We Do Not Collect
ExpressNaturally is designed with your privacy as a top priority.
- No Personal Information: We do not require you to create an account, and we do not collect any personally identifiable information (PII) such as your name, email address, phone number, or physical address when you use our Service.
- No Storage of User Input Text: Any text you input into our tools (e.g., WriteNaturally, ToneNaturally, PairNaturally) is processed in real-time to provide you with the requested AI-powered suggestions or translations. This text is not stored on our servers after the processing is complete.
2. Information We May Collect
- IP Addresses for Rate Limiting: For certain features of our Service, such as ReadAloudly, we may temporarily use your IP address solely for the purpose of implementing rate limits (e.g., limiting the number of passage generations per IP per day). This is essential to prevent abuse, ensure fair usage, and maintain service availability for all users. This IP address information is not linked to any personal identity and is not stored long-term beyond the necessary period for rate-limiting enforcement (typically for the duration of the daily limit).
- Non-Personal, Aggregated Usage Data: We may collect anonymous, aggregated data regarding the use of our Service, such as the frequency of use of certain features or general error rates. This information is used solely to improve the functionality and performance of our Service and does not identify individual users.
3. How We Use Information
Since we do not collect personal information or store your input text, our use of any collected information is limited:
- To provide, maintain, and improve our Service.
- To monitor and analyze usage and trends to enhance user experience.
- To implement security measures like rate limiting.
4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our Service may use standard browser cookies or similar technologies that are necessary for the website to function properly (e.g., session management). These cookies do not collect personal information. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our Service.
5. Third-Party Services
Our Service utilizes third-party AI models (e.g., via Google's Genkit) to process the text you provide and generate suggestions. These third-party services have their own privacy policies governing their use of data. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of these services. We do not share any personal information with these third parties because we do not collect it.
6. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the information processed by our Service. However, as we do not store your input text or personal information, the primary security focus is on the real-time processing environment and the protection of any anonymized, aggregated data we might collect.
7. Children's Privacy
Our Service is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with information, we will take steps to delete such information.
8. Your Rights
As we do not collect personal information, traditional data subject rights (like access, rectification, or erasure of personal data) are generally not applicable in the same way. Your primary right is to choose not to use our Service if you do not agree with this Privacy Policy or our Terms of Service.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Effective Date" at the top.
You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
