| Document | Version | Effective date | Status | Changes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terms of Service | 1.2.2 | 1 Oct 2026 | In force | Section 9 no longer says that people who live in each region rate the expressions: if something doesn’t sound right, let us know and we’ll look into it. Nothing else changes |
| Terms of Service | 1.2.1 | 30 Sep 2026 | Replaced | The AI call lasts 10 minutes at most, previously 4 (section 8). Nothing else changes |
| Terms of Service | 1.2 | 29 Sep 2026 | Replaced | The AI call refers to “our AI voice provider” (section 8), and section 9 sums up how we look after content: we use AI tools to prepare some of the content and the voices, and people who live in each region rate the expressions |
| Terms of Service | 1.1 | 28 Sep 2026 | Replaced | Adds “Your balance” (section 12): how you earn it (invitations, ideas, active months, anniversaries, the Loyal price and the founder price), how it is used by extending your Apple subscription, expiry after 12 months with the clock stopped while it cannot be used, and notice 30 days before. The founder price and the Loyal price become annual-plan balance |
| Terms of Service | 1.0 | 27 Sep 2026 | Replaced | First version |
| Privacy Policy | 1.0.8 | 2 Oct 2026 | In force | Session replay only happens if you give us permission in “Will you help us improve Chercha?” (at the end of sign-up or, if you already had the app, once). Its legal basis is now your consent, which you can withdraw at any time in Settings › Privacy and data › “Help us improve Chercha” |
| Privacy Policy | 1.0.7 | 2 Oct 2026 | Replaced | Covers conversations with Chercha’s AI (sessions with your coach, chat, the daily call, and ideas and problems by call), what your coach remembers about you, Your path (in pronunciation and the real-life mission, the text is checked and not stored), practice minutes, the streak with protectors and friends. Session replay shows Chercha’s screens and masks only what is personal. Your answers on the cards order your feed and no longer remove expressions. An AI model from our network and web hosting provider checks the steps in Your path |
| Privacy Policy | 1.0.6 | 29 Sep 2026 | Replaced | To improve the app, a session replay is made in every version of the app, including the App Store version, with all text and all images masked, kept for 30 days and based on legitimate interests. You turn it off in Settings › Privacy › “Help us improve Chercha”. Never in the AI call, My dictionary, the ideas box, “Write to us”, exporting your data or deleting your account, or before you confirm you are 18 or over. Recipients are listed by category, with where they process data and the safeguard used, and you can ask us for the list of providers |
| Privacy Policy | 1.0.5 | 29 Sep 2026 | Replaced | In test versions of the app (TestFlight), never in the App Store version, sessions are recorded with all text and all images masked |
| Privacy Policy | 1.0.4 | 28 Sep 2026 | Replaced | App and widget errors and crashes go to our error monitoring provider with your pseudonymous account ID (never your name, email or IP address) |
| Privacy Policy | 1.0.3 | 28 Sep 2026 | Replaced | The referral and ideas reward is stated as an amount (the price of one month of your plan towards your subscription), not a “free month” |
| Privacy Policy | 1.0.2 | 28 Sep 2026 | Replaced | Adds your optional own audio in My dictionary: you record it, only you can hear it and it is deleted when you remove it or delete your account |
| Privacy Policy | 1.0.1 | 28 Sep 2026 | Replaced | Reminder emails: before your trial ends, before each annual renewal and, on the monthly plan, every 6 months (1.0 said “before each charge”) |

| Cookie policy | 1.1 | 29 Sep 2026 | In force | Security cookies are described by the type of provider that sets them (“our network and web hosting provider”) |
