The short version
- Bolo collects no personal data and works fully offline.
- No accounts, no ads, no analytics and no third-party trackers.
- Progress is saved only on your device.
Information we collect
None. Bolo does not ask for, collect or send any personal information: no name, email, phone number, location, contacts, photos or device identifiers.
Learning progress
Your learning progress (such as stars, daily streak, and which letters and words you have unlocked) is saved only on your device, in the app's local storage. It never leaves your phone or tablet. You can erase it at any time from Settings → Reset all progress inside the app, or by uninstalling the app.
Network and permissions
Bolo does not need an internet connection and makes no network requests.
The app has one optional feature, "Record & compare", which uses your device's microphone so a child can record themselves saying a word and hear it played back next to the reference pronunciation. It is off by default. When it is on, the audio is processed only in your device's memory for instant playback. It is never saved, never uploaded and never shared, and you can leave it off entirely in Settings. Bolo requests no other sensitive permissions (no camera, location, contacts or storage).
Children's privacy
Bolo is designed for children and families. Because the app collects no data at all, it does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or the relevant age in your region). It was built with the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and the Google Play Families policy in mind, by collecting nothing.
Third parties
Bolo contains no third-party advertising, analytics or social SDKs and shares no information with anyone, because none is collected.
Changes to this policy
If this policy ever changes, the updated version will be posted at this same address with a new effective date.
