Privacy Policy

A clearer explanation of how DyslexiHub handles user data.

This page explains the current product in plain language so students, families, and educators can understand what the app stores, what outside services help run it, what DyslexiHub is actually designed to do, and the privacy rights you have.

Last updated: July 26, 2026.

Trust point

Built for support

DyslexiHub is designed to help with reading, studying, and classroom workflows. It is not built to profile users for advertising, and we do not sell your personal information.

Trust point

AI runs when you ask for it

When you choose a summary, simplification, or voice feature, the relevant reading text may be sent to the provider needed to complete that request.

Trust point

Stored to keep the app working

Accounts, documents, classrooms, assignments, and reading progress are stored so the website can remember your work and support shared reading.

Trust point

Theme settings stay local

Your visual theme choice is saved in your browser so the site can reopen with the reading palette you selected.

  • Basic account details needed for sign-in and account access — your name and email address, handled by our sign-in provider (Clerk).
  • Uploaded documents, classroom records, assignments, and saved reading progress.
  • Where you left off in a document — the page you last read and when you last read it — so the app can reopen to the right spot.
  • Practice streaks and Learning Center activity, recorded by day so the app can show your progress.
  • AI usage counts such as summary activity and voice-credit usage.
  • A short-lived count of how many AI requests you make per minute, kept only to stop runaway usage and abuse.
  • OpenAI is used for text-based AI features such as summaries and other reading support actions.
  • OpenAI or ElevenLabs may be used when you choose AI voice or text-to-speech features, depending on the voice setting you select.
  • Text is sent only when a feature needs it to complete the request you started. We do not send your reading text to any AI provider in the background.
  • Clerk for authentication and sign-in (stores your name, email, and login credentials).
  • Supabase for application data such as classrooms, assignments, documents, and reading progress.
  • Stripe for paid subscriptions — if you upgrade, your email goes to Stripe to manage billing. Card numbers are handled by Stripe, never seen or stored by DyslexiHub.
  • OpenAI and ElevenLabs for the AI reading and voice features described above.
  • Vercel for hosting and delivery of the web app.
  • Sentry for error monitoring, if enabled — it is set up so it does not record your screen and does not attach personal identifiers such as IP addresses to error reports.

In App Store terms, here are the categories of data DyslexiHub uses. Everything here supports the app you asked for — none of it is used for advertising or sold.

  • Contact info: your email address, used for your account and, if you upgrade, for billing.
  • Identifiers: an account ID that links your saved work to you.
  • User content: documents you upload, text you read, notes, and reading progress.
  • Usage data: which AI features you use and how often, and per-minute request counts used to prevent abuse.
  • Payment info: handled entirely by Stripe if you subscribe — DyslexiHub never receives your card number.
  • Not collected: we do not use advertising, we run no third-party analytics or ad trackers, and we do not build advertising profiles.

Depending on where you live — for example California (CCPA/CPRA) or the EU and UK (GDPR) — you have rights over your personal information. DyslexiHub honors these requests for everyone, wherever you are:

  • Access: ask for a copy of the personal information tied to your account.
  • Correction: fix account details that are wrong or out of date.
  • Deletion: delete your account and its data yourself from your Account page, or ask us to do it.
  • Portability: request your data in a portable form.
  • Object or restrict: ask us to stop or limit certain uses of your information, and withdraw any consent you gave.
  • Opt out of sale/sharing: this one is automatic — we do not sell or share your personal information for advertising, so there is nothing to opt out of.
  • Complain: if you are in the EU or UK, you can lodge a complaint with your local data-protection authority.
  • No retaliation: we will not treat you differently for using any of these rights.
  • Account data and your saved work are kept while your account is active, so the app can remember your documents and progress.
  • When you delete your account, your documents, classroom records, reading history, and sign-in details are removed. Copies may briefly remain in routine backups before they age out.
  • The short-lived per-minute request counts used to prevent abuse expire on their own within minutes.
  • If you cancel a paid plan, your account moves to the free plan — your documents and progress are not deleted.
  • Data moves between your device and our providers over encrypted connections (HTTPS).
  • Database tables use Row Level Security, so one account cannot read another account's records.
  • Card payments are processed by Stripe; DyslexiHub never receives or stores card numbers.
  • No system is perfectly secure, so we cannot promise absolute security — but we design to limit what is collected and who can see it.
  • DyslexiHub is operated from the United States, and our providers process data in the United States.
  • If you use DyslexiHub from outside the United States, your information is transferred to and processed in the United States.
  • To exercise any right, email us and we will respond. You can also delete your account yourself at any time from your Account page.
  • Where GDPR applies, we handle your information to provide the service you asked for, to meet legal obligations, and for our legitimate interest in keeping DyslexiHub secure and working — plus your consent where a feature specifically asks for it.
  • When EU or UK data is sent to the United States, we rely on appropriate safeguards, such as our providers' standard contractual clauses.
  • You can withdraw consent, or object to or restrict certain processing, at any time by emailing us.

DyslexiHub is used by dyslexic readers, and some are children. We take extra care with younger users:

  • Sign-up starts with a date-of-birth question. We use it only to check age at that moment — it is not stored on your account.
  • Readers under 13 cannot create their own account. They are pointed to a teacher, parent, or guardian, who can set up and approve access.
  • When a school or teacher sets up DyslexiHub for students, we rely on the school or teacher to provide the consent that applies in their setting.
  • We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 without that adult involvement. If you believe a child under 13 created an account on their own, email us and we will remove it.
  • Teachers and parents can view or delete a student's data by contacting us.

When a student joins a classroom with a join code, the teacher of that classroom can see how the student is doing with classwork. In plain terms, a teacher can see:

  • Your name and email, so they know who has joined.
  • Each assignment's status and progress — for example how far through a reading you are.
  • When you last opened or read an assignment.
  • If your teacher turns on reading-time tracking for a classroom, they can also see how long you spend on each assignment and whether the reading tab was open while you read.
  • That tracking is never silent: whenever it is on, the assignment page shows you a notice that your teacher can see your reading time.
  • Teachers do not see your private library documents, your personal notes, or anything outside their classroom.

A student can leave a classroom at any time. Leaving stops new activity from being shared with that classroom.

DyslexiHub also ships as a Chrome extension that reads selected text aloud on any web page. This section is the privacy disclosure for that extension and is the URL we submit to the Chrome Web Store.

Only the text you actively choose to read — either the words you highlight, the text you right-click on, or the article on the page you click “Play” for. The extension does not stream what you type or quietly read pages in the background.

The floating quick-play button uses your browser's built-in voice and sends nothing to DyslexiHub's servers. The side panel's premium voices send the selected text (and your DyslexiHub login token) to dyslexihub.com, which forwards it to OpenAI or ElevenLabs to produce the audio. Audio is streamed back and played — not stored.

Voice choice, highlight color, the floating button's corner, and your sign-in session live in your browser's local storage. You can clear them at any time by removing the extension.

“Active tab” lets the extension read the page you're on when you ask it to; “storage” remembers your settings; “cookies” lets the sign-in modal share your DyslexiHub session; “side panel” powers the reader; “context menus” adds the right-click “Read with DyslexiHub” option.

We may update this Privacy Policy as the product changes. When we do, we update the date at the top of this page. If a change materially affects how we handle personal information — especially children's or student data — we will make a reasonable effort to tell you directly, for example by email or a notice in the app, before it takes effect where the law requires. Continuing to use DyslexiHub after an update means you accept the current policy.

You can delete your account yourself, no email needed: open your Account page and use the delete-account option. It permanently removes your documents, classroom records, reading history, and sign-in details. Prefer to ask a person, or want to exercise any privacy right above? Email se88543@gmail.com and we will handle it for you.

Parents and teachers are welcome to write on behalf of their students. Please also see our Terms of Service.
