Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 13, 2026

Welcome to JFT Guru, a product of Tech Bato Pvt. Ltd. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy informs you how we handle your personal data across our website (jftguru.com) and the JFT Guru Mobile Application (collectively, the "Services"), and explains your privacy rights.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect, use, and process the following data through our website and mobile app:

  • Identity Data: Full name, username, Japanese proficiency level (N1-N5), and profile avatar.
  • Contact Data: Email address and Phone Number.
  • Technical Data: IP address, device model, operating system version, browser type, and unique device identifiers (including Advertising ID / AD_ID).
  • Usage Data: How you navigate our Services, mock test scores, and practice history.
  • Audio Data: Voice recordings captured during "Speaking Coach" sessions within the app, along with the speaking scenario prompt text. These recordings are sent to Google Gemini AI (operated by Google LLC) for speaking performance evaluation. Audio data is processed in real-time and is not permanently stored by the AI service after evaluation. This data is not used for identifying you personally, advertising, or profiling.

2. How We Use Your Data

We use your data on both the website and mobile app to:

  • Register your account and maintain your progress across all platforms.
  • Process AI-based speaking evaluations.
  • Serve personalized or non-personalized advertisements via Google AdMob/AdSense.
  • Improve our educational content, app performance, and user experience.

3. Third-Party Services & SDKs (App & Web)

Our Services use several trusted third-party tools that may collect data:

  • Google Mobile Ads (AdMob): Used in the mobile app to serve ads. They may collect your Advertising ID to provide tailored ads.
  • Firebase Analytics: Used to understand app performance and usage patterns.
  • Microsoft Clarity: Used on both website and app for behavior analysis (heatmaps and session replay). Data is handled per the Microsoft Privacy Statement.
  • Google Login: For unified authentication. We only access your name and email from your Google Profile.
  • Apple Sign-In: For iOS authentication. We only access your name and email as provided by Apple.
  • Google Gemini AI: Used for speaking evaluation within the "Speaking Coach" feature. When you use this feature and provide consent, your voice recording audio and the speaking scenario prompt text are sent to Google Gemini AI (Google LLC) for evaluation. Data is processed in real-time and is not stored permanently by Google after the evaluation is complete. Google's data handling is governed by the Google Privacy Policy. Your explicit consent is required before any audio data is shared with this service, and you may revoke consent at any time from the app's Profile > AI Data & Privacy settings.

4. Account Deletion & Data Retention

We provide unified account management across all platforms:

  • In-App Deletion: Within the mobile app, go to Profile > Edit Profile and tap "Delete Account".
  • Web Deletion Link: You can also request permanent account deletion via our official web portal: https://jftguru.com/delete-account.

Once deleted, your account and all associated scores/history will be permanently removed from our servers within 30 days.

5. Data Security

We implement strict security protocols to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost or accessed in an unauthorized way. All communication between our website/app and the server is encrypted using SSL (HTTPS).

6. Payments

Digital purchases are processed by Dodo Payments or verified via manual receipt submission. We do not store your credit card or financial credentials on our servers.
