Your learning.
Your privacy.

How Inkuntri handles information on our website and in the account-based iPhone, iPad, widget, and Apple Watch experience. Updated October 17, 2026.

Inkuntri is operated by Rodney Johnson. For privacy questions or help exercising your choices, contact support@inkuntri.com. Earlier native releases are covered by the archived privacy policy.

Account and learning information

We store your username, email address if you provide one, a securely hashed password, account identifiers, and account timestamps. We save the scenes you explore, study sessions, card answers and progress, review attempts, and learning milestones so you can continue with the same account on another device. We use this information to run the service, provide access, show your progress, and help with support requests.

When you play an adventure, we also save your game state, typed commands, and the game's responses and language corrections. This private history lets you resume and revisit the conversation. Authorized administrators can review inputs to improve the language libraries. Adventure commands are processed on our server. Resetting learning progress or deleting your account removes your saved adventures and their command history.

Essential session and security cookies keep you signed in and protect form submissions. A sign-in session can last up to 14 days. The iPhone and iPad app keeps website sign-in cookies on your device. The app does not need access to your contacts, microphone, photo library, or precise location for its learning features.

Subscriptions and payment records

Apple processes App Store payments. We verify purchases and retain product and transaction identifiers, purchase and renewal status, expiration or refund information, and a random token linking the purchase to your Inkuntri account. These records let us provide paid access, restore eligible purchases, and handle billing support.

When web checkout is enabled, Stripe hosts payment collection. We send it your account email and a random account identifier, and retain customer, checkout, subscription, billing-event, plan, and payment-period details. Apple and Stripe collect payment information directly; Inkuntri does not receive your full payment card details.

Affiliate referrals and payouts

If you follow an affiliate referral link, a signed cookie remembers that referral for up to 30 days. We record the affiliate, the offered discount, the visit date and landing path, and link an eligible referral to your account when you sign in or sign up. A qualifying website purchase fixes that referral so we can credit subsequent purchases and renewals. Affiliate dashboards show sales, plan details, commissions and payout status without exposing the customer’s name or email.

Affiliate applicants provide a verified account email, display name, referral name, payout country, optional public profile, promotion plan and acceptance of the program terms. Stripe Express collects identity documents and bank details directly. We store Stripe account and payment identifiers, verification status, commissions, refund and dispute adjustments, and payout records. Financial records may remain after account deletion for accounting, payment support and fraud prevention. App Store purchases do not earn affiliate commissions.

Account and service emails

We send welcome, password-recovery, affiliate email verification and security messages, purchase and subscription-access updates, and confirmations of complimentary access or account deletion. Pending messages temporarily store the recipient and the details needed to send them. We clear that message content after the mail server accepts it or the message expires; password-reset and affiliate-verification messages expire after one hour and other queued messages after two days. Limited delivery metadata helps us retry failures, avoid duplicate notices, and provide support. These are service messages, not a marketing mailing list.

Optional iPhone notifications

The app stores your reminder choice on your device and schedules a local notification for the next card in an active paced drill. Its text contains the learning item, with item and drill identifiers used to open the right card. It does not contain your answers or scores. We do not collect an Apple push token. Turn reminders off in your account or practice controls, or in iOS notification settings.

Optional Lock Screen widget

Widgets are off by default. If enabled, the iPhone stores a local display copy of the next learning item, scene comment, speaker, language, and item/drill identifiers in protected storage shared by Inkuntri and its widget. This copy does not contain your password, sign-in cookies, answers, or scores, and is not synced through iCloud.

Display content expires after 24 hours without a refresh. Your choice is saved separately for each account on the device. Turning it off or signing out clears the cached content; iOS controls when the visible widget refreshes. Learning text may be visible to anyone who can see your Lock Screen. You can remove the widget in the Lock Screen editor.

Apple Watch

The companion receives the current learning term, item and drill identifiers, a random account identifier, and timing information from your paired iPhone. Your password and sign-in cookies stay on the phone. I Got It and Show Again responses travel through the iPhone to save your progress.

An unsent response stays on the Watch until it is acknowledged or the account changes. The server retains a response receipt with the drill to prevent duplicate scoring on retries. Signing out clears Watch content when the devices next communicate. Apple controls whether a notification appears on the phone or Watch.

Anonymous usage analytics

We use daily totals to understand which parts of Inkuntri are used and how well they work. These totals include page types, broad device and browser categories, response counts and total response time, and practice actions by language and practice mode. Analytics do not contain your username, account ID, study-session ID, learning-item ID, IP address, visitor identifier, exact request time, full browser identifier, URL parameters, referrer, or campaign tags. We do not use analytics to build individual activity histories or link these totals back to accounts.

Traffic totals are pruned after 90 days and practice totals after 365 days. Your saved progress is an account feature and remains until you reset it or delete the account. Anonymous totals cannot be separated by user and remain after account deletion.

Account security and operations

Hashed login-attempt identifiers help limit repeated attempts and are pruned daily. Hosting and security logs can separately contain IP addresses and request times; we do not join these logs to usage analytics. Authorized administrators can access account and learning information to operate the service and provide support. Administrative actions are audited.

Hosting and external services

We use hosting, storage, and email services to operate Inkuntri, deliver learning resources, and send account, security, access, and subscription messages. Playing recordings or loading hosted imagery can connect to DigitalOcean Spaces. Character animations may request character data from jsDelivr. These services receive ordinary network information such as your IP address when delivering content.

xAI is used to produce prerecorded learning audio. Your study answers are not sent to xAI. Scene characters, portraits, and comments are authored learning material, not learner profiles or public posts. The app does not have a learner chat or social-posting feature. Administrators may publish approved marketing material, but your private account and study activity are not included in those posts.

Inkuntri does not sell your personal information. We do not use your activity to track you across other companies’ apps and websites for advertising.

Access, correction, and deletion

Use Account to change your password, reset learning progress, or delete your account. To request access to or correction of account information, or assistance with deletion, email support@inkuntri.com. We may need to verify that the account is yours.

Account deletion removes the live account and learning progress. Purchase records and administrative audit records may remain for billing support, security, and recordkeeping. Backups and operational logs may contain earlier copies after live deletion. They are not part of the active learning account.

Deleting an account does not cancel Apple billing. Cancel Apple subscriptions through your Apple account. If you have web billing, cancel renewal and close unfinished checkouts before deleting the account. See Support for instructions.
