Usage statistics

This app collects anonymized usage statistics, so that I can get an idea of how people use the app, what's useful to them, what's not useful, what do people find difficult, what do they love, what don't they love etc. This all helps me make the app better. This information is used only by me, and I will never sell or pass on this information. This usage information also cannot be linked back to you, because the app doesn't collect identifying information about users. Here's exactly what the app collects and why:

• Onboarding choices: This helps me find out more about what users of the app are interested in learning and if the app does an adequate job of explaining how it works.
• Button taps: I'd like to know which buttons are useful. For example, does anybody use the 'Send now' button, or is it something only I use? When people create new cards, how often do they enter words manually versus using AI to generate them?
• Notification interval, number of cards, number of decks: How often do people usually want to receive flashcard notifications? How many cards do people usually create? Do most people have more than one deck, or do they just put everything in a single deck?
• The name of new decks and any prompts used when generating flashcards with AI: It's of course useful to know what people want to learn when they use the app, and these text fields are the best clue to help me figure that out.
• Feedback from the 'Give feedback' page: If you choose to send feedback about the app (yay! thank you!) then I do indeed receive your feedback.

The analytics data the app collects includes a randomly generated device ID, so I can understand more complicated usage patterns. This device ID doesn't link back to you as a person though, it is a random set of letters and numbers. It is different for every app and in fact it changes for every re-installation of the same app. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to contact me by emailing me at [email protected].

No tracking and no third-party data selling

This app does not contribute to the tracking of your online activities, nor does it sell your data to third parties for tracking across apps and website. Not only do I find such practices to be grimy and unpleasant, but it also does not make strategic sense for this app.

Usage data deletion

If you'd like to have your usage data deleted, email me at [email protected] and I'll be happy to do that. Note that the data I use is anonymous and aggregated, so we will need to coordinate in order for me to know which data points to delete.
