However, we may share it with:
- Service providers (hosting, payment processing, analytics, technical error tracking) that comply with confidentiality obligations.
- Government authorities, if required by law.
- Educational partners, but only with your explicit consent.
- Artificial intelligence (AI) providers — Microsoft (Azure), Google and OpenAI — to which we send your voice recordings, your messages and answers, and the profile information needed to personalize your content, in order to generate and correct your exercises and power the AI tutor, spoken conversations and translations. This sharing requires your explicit consent, which we ask for when you create your account. Because these AI features are at the core of SAPERE, an account cannot be created without this consent. You can withdraw it at any time from your profile: no further data will then be sent to these providers, and the features that rely on them will no longer be available. You can also ask us to delete your account.
5. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to:
Ensure the proper functioning of the platform.
Remember your preferences.
Analyze traffic and improve our services.
You may configure your browser to block cookies, but some features may not function properly.
6. Data Retention

Mobile app: to work offline, the Sapere app keeps part of your account data on your device: your exercise answers waiting to be sent (up to 30 days after you finish the exercise), your answers to an exercise in progress (up to 7 days) and a copy of recently viewed content. On iPhone and iPad, this data is included in your device backup (iCloud or computer) if you have turned it on; that copy then follows the rules of the backup. Deleting the app erases this data from the device.
7. Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data against:
Unauthorized access,
Disclosure,
Loss or alteration.
However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute protection.

- Correct or update your information.
- Withdraw your consent to processing.

9. International Data Transfers
Your data may be stored or processed outside of Québec and Canada, including in the United States (for example, the AI providers Microsoft, Google and OpenAI, and mobile app error reports processed by Sentry, Functional Software Inc.). In such cases, we ensure that adequate safeguards are in place.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated “last updated” date.
