Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains what data Bonjour Verbs (the "app", "we", "us") collects from you, why we collect it, and what choices you have. Bonjour Verbs is operated by Zap Software ("Zap Software"). If you have questions, email support@bonjourverbs.com.
The short version
- You can use Bonjour Verbs without creating an account. In that mode, all your data lives on your device.
- If you create an account (optional), we sync your progress to our backend so it survives device changes.
- We use analytics and crash reporting to understand how the app is used and to fix bugs, never to build advertising profiles.
- We don't sell your data. We don't show ads. We don't share data with advertisers.
- Subscriptions are processed by Apple or Google. We never see your payment details.
What we collect, and why
1. Information you give us
- Account information (only if you choose to sign in): email address, authentication token from Apple Sign-In or Google Sign-In. We use this to identify your account across devices and to back up your progress.
- Onboarding answers (proficiency level, daily goal): used to personalize your learning path. Stored locally; synced to your account if you sign in.
- Support correspondence: if you email us at support@bonjourverbs.com, we'll keep that correspondence to respond and to improve the app.
2. Information generated as you use the app
- Learning progress: which levels you've completed, which verbs you've practiced, your streak count, per-tense mastery scores. Stored locally; synced to your account if you sign in.
- Quiz mistakes: which conjugations you got wrong, used to power Smart Quiz (spaced repetition). Stored locally; synced if you sign in.
- App usage events (e.g. "level completed", "quiz started", "paywall viewed"): used for product analytics. We use Amplitude for this. Events do not contain free-text content you've typed.
- Crash reports: stack traces, device model, OS version, app version. Used to diagnose and fix crashes. Does not include personal content.
3. Information collected automatically
- Device information: device model, operating system version, app version, language, country, screen size. Used to make sure the app works on your device and to prioritize fixes for the platforms our users actually use.
- Subscription status: managed by RevenueCat on our behalf. We receive information about your subscription state (active, expired, in trial) but never your payment instrument.
What we don't collect
- We don't collect your contacts, location, microphone, or camera.
- We don't use advertising identifiers (IDFA / GAID) and do not track you across apps or websites.
- We don't show third-party advertising.
- We don't sell or rent your personal information to anyone.
Service providers we use
We use a small number of third-party services to run Bonjour Verbs. Each is bound to handle your data only for the purposes we specify.
- Supabase, account authentication and progress sync (only used if you sign in).
- RevenueCat, subscription management.
- Amplitude, product analytics (anonymized usage events).
- Apple and Google, payment processing for App Store and Google Play purchases.
Where your data is stored
Most data is stored on your device. Data synced to your account is stored on Supabase infrastructure (which uses AWS). Analytics events are stored on Amplitude infrastructure (AWS, US region). Subscription status is stored on RevenueCat infrastructure.
How long we keep your data
- Locally on your device: until you uninstall the app or clear app data.
- On our backend (account holders only): until you delete your account, after which it's removed within 30 days.
- Analytics events: retained for up to 24 months, then deleted.
- Crash reports: retained for up to 90 days.
Your rights
Depending on where you live (GDPR in the EU/UK, CCPA in California, similar laws elsewhere), you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you.
- Correct data that's inaccurate.
- Delete your account and associated data.
- Export your data in a portable format.
- Object to how we use your data for analytics.
To exercise any of these, email support@bonjourverbs.com. We'll respond within 30 days.
Children
Bonjour Verbs is not directed at children under 13. We don't knowingly collect data from children under 13. If you believe we have, please contact us and we'll delete it.
Changes to this policy
If we make material changes, we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, for significant changes, notify you in-app the next time you open it.
