Orablo

Your voice

Pronunciation checking uses your browser's built-in speech recognition. In Chrome and Edge that feature sends the audio to Google's servers to be turned into text. That happens between your browser and Google — it is part of how the browser works, not something Orablo adds.

Orablo never records, stores, or transmits your audio. We only ever see the text the browser hands back, and we do not keep it after grading your attempt.

You can use Orablo without a microphone. Playback, reading and repeating all work with speech recognition switched off.

Signing in with Google

Signing in is optional and exists for one reason: so your streak follows you across devices instead of living in one browser.

We ask Google for two things, and only these two: your email address (the email scope) and your basic profile (the profile scope, which is your name and picture). We do not request access to your Gmail, your contacts, your files, or anything else, and we cannot read them.

Of that, we store your Google account identifier and your email address. Your name and picture are not stored. Alongside them we keep three numbers: your current streak, your longest streak, and the date you last practised. That is the whole record.

We do not sell this data, share it with anyone, or use it for advertising. It exists to show you a number and to know whether today counts.

Deleting your account

Email hello@orablo.com and we will delete your record — email address, identifier and streaks — within thirty days. There is nothing to keep afterwards, so deletion is permanent and your streak cannot be restored.

We keep your record for as long as your account exists. If you never sign in again, we delete accounts untouched for two years.

On your device

Your theme choice and whether hands-free practice is on are kept in your browser's local storage. They never leave your device.

Getting in touch

To ask what we hold about you, to correct it, or to have it deleted, email hello@orablo.com. One person reads that address, so please be patient.

Changes

If this policy changes in a way that affects data we already hold, we will say so on this page and update the date above before the change applies.
