Privacy Policy

Depending on how you use PowerVocab, we may collect:

• account information, such as your email address, display name, user ID, and sign-in provider;
• learning activity, such as favourites, streak status, completed game sessions, daily usage, and accessible word packs;
• subscription information, including entitlement status, subscription type, renewal or expiry data, and purchase-provider identifiers;
• device and notification information, such as push-notification tokens, platform, time zone, and notification-delivery records;
• technical and security information needed to operate and protect the service; and
• messages and details you choose to send when contacting support.

PowerVocab does not need your device contacts, precise location, microphone recordings, or photos for the current learning experience.

We use information to:

• create, authenticate, secure, and support your account;
• deliver the Word of the Day, practice modes, favourites, streaks, and word-pack access;
• apply daily limits and confirm free, trial, or paid entitlements;
• process, restore, reconcile, and manage subscriptions through the relevant purchase provider;
• send notifications you have permitted, including daily words, streak reminders, and service or subscription messages;
• respond to support requests and account-deletion requests;
• prevent abuse, diagnose failures, and maintain security; and
• comply with legal obligations and enforce our agreements.

We use trusted providers to operate PowerVocab. These may include Google Firebase for authentication, database, cloud functions, storage, and messaging; RevenueCat for subscription entitlements; Apple and Google for app distribution, identity, and purchases; and infrastructure providers used to deliver the website and service.

These providers process information under their own privacy policies and contractual obligations. The exact providers available to you may depend on your platform and the sign-in or purchase method you choose.

Where privacy law requires a legal basis, we rely on performance of our agreement with you, our legitimate interests in operating and securing PowerVocab, compliance with legal obligations, and your consent where requested.

You can withdraw notification permission through device settings. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that occurred before withdrawal.

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only as reasonably necessary with service providers, app stores and purchase platforms, professional advisers, or authorities when required by law or necessary to protect rights, safety, and security.

If PowerVocab is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganisation, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction subject to applicable privacy law.

We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards designed to protect information against loss, misuse, and unauthorised access. No internet service can guarantee absolute security.

Providers may store or process information in countries other than your own. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for international transfers.

We retain account and learning information for as long as your account remains active and as reasonably necessary to provide PowerVocab. We may retain some records after account deletion where required for legal, financial, security, dispute-resolution, or fraud-prevention purposes.

Retention periods vary by information type and provider. We delete or de-identify information when it is no longer reasonably needed.

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or obtain a copy of personal information. You may also have a right to complain to a privacy regulator.

Account details and deletion tools may be available in the app. You can also email powervocabapp@gmail.com with a privacy request. We may need to verify your identity before completing it.

PowerVocab is not directed to children who cannot consent to data processing under the law that applies to them. A parent or legal guardian should contact us if they believe a child provided personal information without appropriate permission.

We may update this Privacy Policy as PowerVocab, our providers, or applicable law changes. We will publish the new version with an updated date and provide additional notice for material changes where required.
