Privacy Policy
Last Updated: September 16, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how nihao handles information when you use our mobile application.
By using nihao, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
1. Data Collection
nihao is designed as a simple Chinese learning tool. We do not collect, sell, or share personal data from the app.
The app is intended to process learning activity on your device. Information such as scanned text, saved words, and learning progress is stored locally on your device unless a future version clearly states otherwise and asks for any required permission.
2. Camera and Text Recognition
If you use the camera scanning feature, nihao may process images or text from your camera on your device to recognize Chinese characters and provide learning results such as pinyin, pronunciation, meanings, and examples.
We do not upload your photos, camera images, or recognized text to our servers.
3. How the App Uses Local Information
nihao may use information stored locally on your device to:
- Provide Chinese text recognition and learning features
- Show pinyin, pronunciation, meanings, and examples
- Save and display your word collection
- Let you review saved words later
4. Photos and Camera Access
nihao requests camera access only when needed for scanning Chinese text. We do not access your camera unless you grant permission through your device settings.
Please avoid scanning sensitive personal information, private documents, financial information, or content you do not have permission to use.
5. Data Retention
Saved words and learning progress stored locally on your device may remain there until you delete them, reset app data, or uninstall the app.
6. Children's Privacy
nihao does not knowingly collect personal information from children.
7. Your Choices
You can control camera access through your device settings.
You may delete saved words or app data within the app if this feature is available, or by deleting the app from your device.
8. Security
Because nihao is designed to store learning data locally on your device, you are responsible for protecting access to your device. No method of storage is completely secure.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date above.
