Personal data processing policy
The site requires no sign-up and records neither your IP address, nor cookies, nor any permanent device trait. Our own statistics keep only the page address, its kind, the section's language and the string you typed into the site search. Third-party counters load only after you have pressed “I agree”. Everything recorded is deleted after 180 days. Below — the full list and your rights.
In short
- There is no sign-up on the site: to read pages and listen to recordings you enter nothing.
- Our own statistics records neither your IP address, nor cookies, nor any permanent device trait.
- Third-party counters do not load until you have pressed “I agree”.
- Everything recorded is deleted after 180 days.

Which data is processed
| What | What exactly is recorded | What for |
|---|---|---|
| An on-page event | the page address, its kind (word, letter, topic), the section's language, the time to the second | to see which sections get read and where people leave for the app |
| A site search query | the string you typed — no longer than 64 characters — and the number of pages found | to see what the site is missing: a query with zero matches is the answer to that question |
| Your answer about the counters | a single “yes” or “no” in the browser's memory (localStorage), on your device | so we do not ask twice |
What the site does not record
- Your IP address — neither in the open nor as a hash. A hash of an address remains a pointer to a person if the set of addresses can be enumerated, and it can.
- Cookies and any persistent identifier. An event is linked neither to the one before nor to the one after: there is nothing to link it with.
- Where you came from — the referrer header is not kept.
- Recording your actions on the page — mouse movements, scrolling as a track, clicks on elements. None of that exists in our own analytics or in the settings of third-party counters.
- Data from the app. The site and the app are separate systems; lessons, streaks and payments live in the app and never travel to the site.
On what grounds
Our own statistics events contain nothing by which a person can be identified: no address, no identifier, no link between one event and another. We describe them here all the same — so you can see the full list instead of taking our word for it.
The search string is the only field you type into yourself. If your data accidentally ends up in it — a name, an email, a number — it will enter the log like any other set of letters. That is why the string is cut to 64 characters and deleted with the whole log. Enter nothing into search except the word you are looking for.
Third-party counters are connected with your consent — that very press on the bar below. You may withhold it: the site works the same either way, no page and no recording is locked.
Yandex.Metrica and Google Analytics
The traffic counters — Yandex.Metrica and Google Analytics — are connected only after you consent. Until you press “I agree”, the browser does not contact their addresses at all: the page carries none of their tags, and the script is created only after the press.
If you agreed, the counter places its own identifiers on the device and processes data by its owner's rules — not by ours. Recording actions on the page (Metrica's webvisor and click map) is switched off by us explicitly.
A refusal is remembered the same way as consent: we will not ask a second time. To change your mind, clear the site's data in the browser settings — the question will then appear again.
Where it is kept, and for how long
Events are stored as files on the same server as the site and are deleted after 180 days — the server itself does this at the change of day, not a person following a reminder.
Separately from us, the publishing server keeps a technical log of requests (it contains IP addresses — that is how any web server works). It is not linked to the analytics events and is not used to watch people.
Your rights
You may ask whether your data is being processed, demand its correction, blocking or deletion, and withdraw consent. Write to the operator's email; a substantive reply arrives within the period set by law.
Who the data is passed to
To no one — except the counter owners, and only if you consented: Yandex (Yandex.Metrica) and Google (Google Analytics). We do not sell data, pass it to ad networks, or share it with other services.
Audio recordings, images and fonts are served from our own address: there are no third-party domains on the pages, so loading a page tells no one anything about you.
Frequently asked
Do I need to consent to use the site?
No. Refusal locks nothing: all pages, recordings and trainers work the same whichever answer you give. Consent concerns only the traffic counters.
Do you record my IP address?
No — not even as a hash: a hash of an address remains a pointer to a person, because the set of all addresses can be enumerated. The publishing server keeps a technical request log, and it is not linked to our statistics.
What do you do with the string I entered in search?
We count how many times it was searched and how many pages were found: a query with no results shows what material the site lacks. The string is cut to 64 characters and deleted with the whole log after 180 days.
How do I withdraw consent to the counters?
Clear the site's data in the browser settings — the stored answer will be erased and the question will appear again. There is no separate button on purpose: it would require storing more about you than we store now.
Where do I write about data processing?
