Last updated: October 20, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how English Tutor ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses and shares information when you use Learn English: AI Tutor (English Tutor), our mobile application for Android (the "App"). By using the App, you agree to the practices described here.
1. Information we collect
Information you provide
- Learning preferences: your goals, interests, English level, daily practice time, preferred accent and voice settings. These are stored on your device.
- Conversation content: the text of messages you send to Ellie in Free Talk and lesson conversations, and the replies generated for you.
- Voice input: when you tap to speak, the App uses your device's speech recognition service to convert your speech to text. We do not store audio recordings on our servers.
- Feedback: if you choose to send us feedback in the App, we receive your message together with the app version, build type and device language.
Information collected automatically

4. Advertising and your choices
The App displays ads. Depending on your region, you will be asked for consent before personalized ads are shown, and you can change your choice from the App's privacy settings.
