Cookie Policy

The Learn with Alphonso website stores a few small items in your browser, in cookies or in browser storage. This page lists each one, what it is for, and how to change your choice. The iOS and Android apps do not use cookies.

• Sign-in session: kept in your browser’s local storage so you stay signed in and your progress syncs to your account. Without it the website cannot work.
• Sign-in security: a short-lived value used while you sign in with Google, to protect the sign-in from tampering.
• Your cookie choice, so we do not ask again on every visit.
• Your answers while you get started: what you tell Alphonso before you create an account stays in your browser until you sign up, then it is saved to your account and removed from your browser.
• If you said you are under 13 when you started, a note of that choice, so sign-up stays closed on this device. It is never sent to us.

• Your theme, so the website looks the way you chose before it finishes loading.
• Small reminders, such as how many times we have shown you the save-a-word hint, and a copy of your learning goal so it appears quickly.

These make the website work the way you set it up and do not require consent.

On learn.alphonsoecosystem.app the only optional storage is a campaign tag. If you arrive through a link that carries utm_source, utm_medium or utm_campaign (for example from a post or from our marketing website) and you choose Accept all, we keep those tags and the time you arrived in your browser's local storage. Until you choose, they are held only for the current tab. When you create an account we save them once to your account (see the Privacy Policy) and remove them from your browser. If you choose Essential only they are discarded. Accept all also turns on anonymous usage analytics (which features are used, never what you type or say or who you are); it is stored in your browser's local storage, not in a cookie, and you can turn it off in Settings. We set no advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. Our marketing website, discover.alphonsoecosystem.app, uses Vercel Web Analytics, which does not use cookies and counts page views and events only in aggregate.

To change your choice later, clear this site's data in your browser settings, and the banner will appear again on your next visit. Clearing or blocking strictly necessary storage signs you out.

How we handle your data is described in our Privacy Policy. Questions? Write to support@alphonsoecosystem.app.
