This policy explains what personal data the websites interactivespanishbooks.com and interactivelearning.app collect, why, who else receives it, how long we keep it and your rights. The Dominican Spanish app has its own privacy policy. In short: we only ask for what each feature needs, we do not sell your data, and you can browse and play without an account.
1. Who is responsible
Estalkin José Sención Rivera, Dominican Republic. Contact for anything about your data: interacctivespanishbooks@gmail.com.
2. What we collect, for what and on what basis
| When | What | Why | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Any visit | IP address, browser, page and time, in our web host’s server logs. | Security, preventing abuse and fixing errors. | Legitimate interest. |
| Any visit | Page-view counts with Koko Analytics, which runs on our own server, uses no cookies and does not identify you. | Knowing which pages are useful. | Legitimate interest. |
| Creating an account | Username, email, password (stored encrypted), and what you save in it: your progress in the courses and your Interactive Learning activities, images and audio. | Giving you an account and keeping your work. | Contract (our Terms). |
| Forums | The name you choose and your message (no email). Messages are public once approved. | Publishing the conversation. | Contract and your consent. |
| Contacting a teacher | Your name, email and message, forwarded by email to that teacher. We do not store them on the website. | Putting you in touch. | Your request (consent). |
| Free PDF and emails | Your email, the page where you signed up, the date and a code to unsubscribe in one click. | Sending the PDF and lessons and news. | Your consent (you can withdraw it any time). |
| Playing an activity | If you type a name at the end: that name, your score and time, sent to the author of the activity. Nothing else is required. | Letting the teacher see results. | Legitimate interest of the teacher / the teacher’s instructions. |
| Booking and paying a class | From Google sign-in: your name, email and Google account ID. Your WhatsApp number (required, with the country code). Your booking (date, time zone, optional note), and from PayPal the order and transaction numbers, amount and status. Never your card or bank details. | Arranging, confirming, reminding, rescheduling and refunding classes; contacting you quickly about a class (for example, a change of time or a connection problem); accounting. | Contract; legal obligations (accounting). |
| Ticking the Terms and Privacy boxes | Date and time, your account or email or name, the form and page, your IP address and browser, the exact text of each box and the version of each document. | Being able to prove when and how you accepted. | Legal obligation and legitimate interest. |
| Live classes and group games | Video, audio and game data travel directly between the devices in the class (peer to peer). A public PeerJS server only introduces the devices to each other and sees their IP addresses. Nothing is recorded. | Running the live class or game. | Contract / your request. |
We do not ask for sensitive data and we do not make automated decisions about you.
3. Who else receives data
- Hostinger (web hosting), which stores the website and its database on servers in the United States.
- Brevo, which sends the website’s emails (booking confirmations and reminders, the free PDF and lessons).
- Google: Google sign-in, Google Calendar and Google Meet for classes; Google AdSense for ads (section 5); YouTube, only if you choose to load a video; Google Fonts, which load the website’s fonts; Gemini, which receives the topic you type when you use “Create it now”.
- PayPal, which processes payments, packs and monthly plans.
- WhatsApp (Meta), only when the teacher writes to you there about your classes.
- Cloudflare Turnstile, which checks that the person creating an account is not a robot.
- PeerJS (public connection server) for live classes and group games.
- Wikimedia Commons (paintings shown in some slides) and Openverse (image search in the activity creator), which receive your IP address when those images load or when you search.
Each of these services handles data under its own privacy policy. We do not sell your data or give it to advertisers. Some of these providers are outside your country, including in the United States; for data from the European Union, they rely on the EU–US Data Privacy Framework or on the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses. By using the features that need them, you agree to this transfer.
4. How long we keep it
- Account and its content: until you delete the account.
- Forum messages: until you ask us to remove them or the forum closes.
- Email list: until you unsubscribe.
- Class bookings and payments: as long as tax and accounting laws require.
- Your WhatsApp number: while you book classes with us; you can ask us to delete it at any time.
- Records of acceptance of the Terms and Privacy Policy: while your account or relationship with us lasts and afterwards only for as long as a claim about it could still be made.
- Server logs: a short period set by our host, for security.
5. Cookies and advertising
By default the website does not put cookies on your device. Cookies only appear when you sign in (to keep you signed in), when you pay with PayPal, when you load a YouTube video, and when ads are shown. Members who are signed in do not see ads. In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, Google shows a consent message before using cookies for personalised ads. Details in our Cookie Policy.
6. Children
Accounts, forums, email sign-ups and bookings are for people aged 16 or older. Children can play activities without an account; if they type a name at the end, it should be a first name or nickname. Teachers who use the website with children are responsible for any permission their school or the law requires. If you believe a child has given us personal data without permission, write to us and we will delete it.
7. Your rights
You can ask to see, correct, delete or receive a copy of your data, object to or limit its use, and withdraw your consent at any time (this does not affect what was done before). Write to interacctivespanishbooks@gmail.com; we will answer within the time the law sets (within one month at the latest). If you are not satisfied, you can complain to the data protection authority of your country (in the EU, your national authority).
8. Security
The website uses encrypted connections (HTTPS); passwords are stored encrypted; uploaded images are re-encoded and audio is checked before being stored; access to the administration is restricted. No system is perfectly secure, so if we ever learn of a breach that affects you, we will tell you as the law requires.
9. Changes
We will update this page when what we do changes. The date at the top shows the current version, and we keep each version that someone accepted.
