Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 2025

Introduction

Speak Wonder ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting the privacy of our users, especially children. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information in connection with our website (speakwonder.com) and mobile application.

COPPA Compliance

Speak Wonder is designed for children ages 3–8, used under parental supervision. We comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA):

• We do not collect personal information directly from children. The app is operated by a parent or guardian who provides their own email address.
• We do not use tracking cookies. Our analytics are cookie-free and collect only aggregate, anonymous page view data.
• We do not serve targeted advertisements. There are no ads in the app or on our website.
• We do not share children's data with third parties. Audio recordings for speech analysis are processed in real-time and are not stored or shared.

Information We Collect

Website Visitors

• Email address — Only when voluntarily submitted via the waitlist form. Used solely to notify you about product launch updates.
• Aggregate analytics — Anonymous page view counts via privacy-first analytics (no cookies, no personally identifiable information).

App Users

• Parent email address — Required for account creation. Used for account management and product updates.
• Audio recordings — Processed in real-time by AWS AI services for speech analysis. Recordings are not stored permanently and are not used for any purpose other than providing immediate feedback.
• Practice progress data — Stored securely to personalize the learning experience. Linked to the parent account, not to the child.

How We Use Your Information

• To send waitlist updates and product launch notifications (email)
• To provide and improve the speech practice experience (audio analysis)
• To personalize practice difficulty and content (progress data)
• To respond to support inquiries

Cookies and Tracking

We do not use tracking cookies. Our website uses a privacy-first analytics provider that does not set cookies, does not use local storage for tracking, and does not collect personally identifiable information.

Data Storage and Security

• All data is stored securely using AWS infrastructure with encryption at rest and in transit.
• Email addresses collected via the waitlist are stored by our form service provider with industry-standard security practices.
• We retain email addresses only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described above.

Your Rights

You may:

• Request deletion of your email address from our waitlist at any time by emailing us.
• Unsubscribe from communications using the link in any email we send.
• Request information about what data we hold about you.

Third-Party Services

• AWS (Amazon Web Services) — Cloud infrastructure, AI speech analysis
• Formspree — Waitlist form submission handling
• Cloudflare — DNS, DDoS protection, email routing
• Apple App Store — App distribution (subject to Apple's privacy policy)

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify users of material changes via email or a notice on our website.
