We analyse it to work out which sounds you produced, so that we can show you where they differed from the sounds you were aiming for.

Recordings are processed once and then deleted. We do not store your voice, and we do not use it to train any model.

Content that we removed stays hidden from other members for up to 12 months after a moderator reviewed it, so that you can appeal, and is then deleted together with the reports about it.

The copies of content attached to other reports are deleted 12 months after the report is closed.

Some of these providers operate outside your own country, including in the United States, so using the platform may involve an international transfer of your data.
