سياسة الخصوصية

Hey, Rick here. Privacy policies are usually boring walls of legal text. I'll keep this as human as possible. The short version: your data is yours. We only collect what we need to make Dutch Fluency work for you, and we never sell it. بهذه البساطة.

من نحن

Dutch Fluency is a language learning platform created by Rick (that's me) based in Bangkok, Thailand. We provide podcasts, interactive apps, coaching, and reading materials for people learning Dutch. Our website is dutchfluency.com and our dashboard lives at dashboard.dutchfluency.com.

ما نجمعه

كيف نستخدم بياناتك

• 1. To provide the service (apps, podcasts, transcripts, coaching)
• 2. To send you things you signed up for (email training, assessment results)
• 3. To improve Dutch Fluency (understanding which apps people actually use)
• 4. To process payments (via Stripe)

We never sell your data. We never share it with advertisers. We never use it to train AI models. Full stop.
