Privacy policy

Student information and bookings

The site records the name, email address and timezone you provide, your lesson option, booking dates, start times and durations. It also stores your private access token, orders, lesson credits and payment status so you and Erick can manage your lessons. Payment status is recorded after manual verification; making a booking does not charge you or verify a Wise transfer.

Your private lesson link contains an access token and acts as your access key. Anyone who has that link can open your lesson area. Keep it private and contact Erick if it is lost or shared.

You can create a student account before buying lessons. Registration stores your first and last names, date of birth, email and timezone. Passwords are stored as salted hashes; sign-in sessions use secure cookies. Email verification and password recovery use expiring, single-use links. Your learning profile can include languages, background, interests, goals and availability. Erick uses this information to prepare your learning materials and plan.

The site records invoices and payment references. A monthly four-credit plan creates a new pending payment request after one calendar month; it does not debit your bank or Wise account automatically. The Pix total uses a daily reference exchange rate fixed for that invoice. The rate lookup sends only the currency pair, without your name, email or invoice. Unpaid reservations display a deadline; after it expires the calendar hold can be released while the invoice remains pending.

Google Calendar and Google Meet

Only Erick authorises the site’s Google Calendar connection through the administration area. Students choose an available time on the site and do not need to grant the site access to their Google accounts.

The connection reads the authorised account’s calendar list to let Erick select his booking calendar and calendars that block availability. It checks busy periods and reads lesson event identifiers, times, status and meeting links to keep site bookings aligned with Google Calendar. It uses the calendar permissions to create and manage lesson events, including updates or deletion when a lesson is changed or cancelled through an authorised administrative action.

When a reservation is saved, the site sends the student’s name, email address and lesson details to Google Calendar as part of the lesson event and attendee invitation, and requests a Google Meet link. Google processes the event and invitation under its own service policies. The site stores the resulting event identifier, event time and Calendar and Meet links with the booking.

Public availability shows available start times only. It does not expose private event titles, descriptions, attendee lists or the details of the calendar events that make a time unavailable.

Google data is used only to provide and maintain these booking and calendar features. The use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.

Storage and access

The site stores student and booking records on its hosting infrastructure. Access to administration requires Erick’s administrator session. OAuth client secrets and refresh tokens saved through the calendar administration area are encrypted on the server; stored credentials are not returned to the browser or included in public availability responses.

Information is shared with the hosting services needed to run the site and with Google to provide calendar invitations and meetings. The site does not sell personal information, use it for advertising or use it to train AI models.

When the transactional email service is enabled, the site sends account verification, password recovery, lesson and payment messages through that provider (Resend). It receives your email address and the message content needed for delivery. Your date of birth and learning questionnaire are not included in routine payment or booking emails. Notifications are also stored in your private student area.

Disconnecting Google Calendar

Erick can disconnect the account in calendar settings. Disconnecting removes the stored Google authorisation from the site and requests revocation of the grant from Google. If Google cannot complete that request, access can also be revoked in the Google account’s connected-app settings. Disconnecting does not delete lesson events or invitations already created in Google Calendar.

Other site features

The reading and vocabulary area stores the words and expressions you save, their meanings and examples, source references, your reading difficulty preference and your review history. These records are linked to your account so you can continue on another device. Erick can review your vocabulary and include a dated copy with your lesson notes. Published notes are visible in your private student area; draft notes remain available to Erick.

Reading suggestions use your chosen difficulty, profile interests and review activity within the site. News excerpts are retrieved by the site from the publisher's public feed without sending your learning profile or vocabulary to the publisher. Links to full articles open the publisher's own website.

The public practice game stores progress in your browser. Practice accessed through a private lesson area can save your character profile, answers, completion and use of hints or repetitions to your student account so Erick can support your learning.

“Save your journey” is an optional game account registration. It collects your name, email, timezone and a password stored as a salted hash; no birth date or real identity document is requested in this game flow. You may import a browser journey into an empty account. Existing account journeys are preserved, and the original browser copy is kept. Account details and practice records are private and visible to Erick.

Permission for Erick to email you about lessons is optional and is not preselected for a new account. The site records your choice, the consent text version and the dates of registration and preference updates. You can change the choice through “Account & contact preference” in your private game, or contact Erick to withdraw it. Account and security messages are separate from this permission. Erick receives an administrative signup notice containing your name, email and contact choice; fictional character documents and your answers are not included in that email.

Internal conversion counts contain daily totals and lesson options, without names, email addresses or private access tokens. Short-lived request limits use hashed identifiers to reduce automated abuse. The hosting service may also process traffic and security information to operate and protect the site.

Access, corrections and deletion

To request access to, correction of or deletion of your information, email erick.monteiro.moraes@gmail.com from your registered address and identify the relevant account or booking. Erick reviews these requests directly. Booking and payment records remain stored for lesson administration until removed through an administrative process; the site does not promise automatic deletion after a fixed period.

A request to remove site records and a request to remove Google Calendar events are separate actions. Please specify both if that is what you need.
