Data Security

Privacy & Cookie Policy

Last Updated: May 20, 2026. IELTS AI is committed to safeguarding your personal data, audio recordings, and evaluation scripts under strict regulatory standards.

1. Data Collection & Speech Transcription

When you participate in our Speaking Practice module, we capture microphone audio data to generate high-accuracy transcripts. Transcripts are parsed locally using secure LLM pathways. The raw audio files are stored in our secure, encrypted cloud buffer for no longer than 72 hours, after which they are permanently shredded from our databanks unless you actively choose to archive them to your progress log.

2. Information Sharing & Third Parties

IELTS AI will never sell, lease, or distribute your written essays or speech transcripts to marketing aggregators. To generate grammar metrics, your data is processed through sandboxed Google Cloud APIs and Gemini scoring instances. This data is handled in stateless requests and is never utilized by these models for generalized training runs.

3. Data Rectification & Deletion Rights

You have full access to your archived history under GDPR guidelines. You can trigger a comprehensive account wipe directly from the Settings Panel in your Dashboard, deleting all calculated band histories, essays, vocabulary lists, and profile tokens permanently within 24 hours.
