This page is for anyone who wants to know what Illahee collects about them. The short answer is nothing, and the rest of this page explains what that means in practice.
Nothing. There are no accounts and nothing to sign up for. The app does not use analytics, does not send usage reports, and does not read or store any identifier for your phone.
What you have learned — which words you have seen, how well you remembered them, which lessons you finished — is kept on your own device. It is not sent to us and we cannot see it. Deleting the app deletes it.
The words come down; nothing about you goes up. The app asks the service which version of the words has been published and downloads it. That request carries no name, no account and no identifier for your device.
Web servers normally write the address your device connected from into a log. This one does not: it records what was asked for and not who asked. The company renting us the computer may keep its own connection records, as any host does — that is theirs, not ours, and nothing here is linked to it.
If you report that a word looks wrong, what you typed is sent to the Language Program's queue, in English. It is stored with no name, no account and no device attached to it, so nobody can tell who sent it — including us. Please don't put anything personal in it; there is no reason to, and no way for us to remove it from a report we cannot connect to you.
If the Program has given you a community access code, the app sends that code when it asks for words. The code identifies the grant, not you.
When you get something wrong, the app explains it another way in plain English. That runs on your own phone, using Apple's on-device model. Nothing you do in a lesson is sent to us, to Apple, or to any other company.
The app is meant to be usable by children learning the language. Because it collects nothing at all, there is nothing about a child to protect, share, sell or lose. There are no advertisements and no third-party trackers of any kind.
Chinuk Wawa content belonging to the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, and accounts for Language Program staff who chose to have them. Those are the only people in the database. Everything held can be exported and handed to the Program in a single step.
The service runs on rented computers in Oregon, in the United States.
