PLAIN-LANGUAGE SUMMARY

What the site does today

Seoul Keys is a public educational service for learning Hangul and practising Korean typing. Signed-in learners receive a personal progress page and visit rewards. The service does not currently offer payments, uploads, public profiles, or advertising. It does use product analytics (Cloudflare Web Analytics and Microsoft Clarity) to understand how the lessons are used and where learners get stuck. Typing entries stay in the active browser session; summarized progress is saved to the learner’s account.

개인정보처리방침 · PRIVACY POLICY

Privacy by minimization

Seoul Keys uses the authenticated account email and display name to provide a personal learning page. It does not sell personal information, build advertising profiles, or ask learners for phone numbers, precise locations, contacts, photos, or payment details.

Information used by the current service

InformationPurpose and retention
Authenticated email address and display nameIdentify the learner, secure account-owned progress, and display the personal page. Retained while the learning account remains active or until a valid deletion request is completed.
Lesson number, completed sentences, practice time, accuracy, XP, visit streak, benefit balance, and earned badgesProvide progress sync, the personal dashboard, and repeat-visit benefits. Retained with the learning account.
Interface language, keyboard layout, pronunciation and sound settingsSaved in browser storage until the learner clears site data.
Daily lesson number and completion stateSaved on the device to resume the current day’s lesson; replaced as the lesson changes.
Text typed into practice fieldsUsed in memory to score the exercise. The service does not submit or persist it on a Seoul Keys server.
Technical access and security logsThe hosting infrastructure may process standard request data such as IP address, user agent, time, and requested page to deliver and protect the site. Seoul Keys does not use these logs for advertising profiles.

Korean pronunciation

Fixed lessons use pre-generated female and male Korean audio files. Playback does not send the learner’s typed answer to a TTS provider. If an administrator-added sentence has no recorded file, the site can fall back to the browser or operating system speech feature; a device vendor may then process speech according to that vendor’s settings and policy. Learners can turn pronunciation off at any time.

Your choices and rights

  • Turn pronunciation and typewriter sounds off independently.
  • Remove local preferences and lesson progress by clearing this site’s browser data.
  • Sign out of the personal page and continue using available public information.
  • Request information, correction, deletion, restriction, or objection where applicable by emailing travels444@gmail.com.

Security and international delivery

The site uses encrypted HTTPS delivery and minimizes stored information. Hosting may process requests in multiple countries to provide reliable delivery. No system is perfectly secure; material incidents will be assessed and reported as required by applicable law.

이용약관 · TERMS OF USE

Use Seoul Keys to learn and practice

  1. Educational service. Seoul Keys provides typing and language practice, not professional translation, immigration, legal, medical, or emergency advice.
  2. Permitted use. Learners may use the service for personal and classroom learning. Automated scraping, security attacks, interference, impersonation, unlawful use, and unauthorized redistribution of protected content are prohibited.
  3. Availability. Lessons may change, pause, or be removed for maintenance, safety, licensing, or technical reasons.
  4. Learning results. Scores and translations are instructional aids. Accuracy and fluency outcomes are not guaranteed.
  5. Third-party services. Pre-generated speech models, optional browser speech, hosting, and any third-party content introduced later may be governed by additional provider terms.
  6. Liability. To the extent allowed by law, the service is provided as available. Mandatory consumer rights are not excluded.
  7. Changes. Material changes will be dated and summarized on this page before they take effect where notice is required.

쿠키·광고 정책 · COOKIES & ADS

No advertising cookies — product analytics only

The service uses browser local storage for essential preferences and daily lesson continuity. It does not load Google AdSense, behavioral advertising, or social pixels.

It does use two product-analytics tools so we can improve the lessons:

  • Cloudflare Web Analytics — privacy-first page and visit counts. No cookies, no cross-site tracking.
  • Microsoft Clarity — aggregated interaction data, heatmaps, and session replays that show where learners hesitate or get stuck. Clarity sets its own cookies and is governed by the Microsoft Privacy Statement. Text typed into practice fields is not sent to our server, and account passwords are never entered on this site.

You can block these at any time with your browser’s tracking protection or an ad/tracker blocker; the lessons and games continue to work normally.

If advertising is introduced

Advertising is not active today. Before any advertising provider is enabled, Seoul Keys will update this notice to identify the provider, purposes, and available privacy choices.

  • This policy and the on-site privacy control must be updated with the actual providers and purposes.
  • Where required, ads and non-essential storage must remain blocked until a valid choice is made.
  • EEA, UK, and Swiss traffic must use a Google-certified consent management platform compatible with Google’s applicable publisher requirements.
  • Users must be able to revisit and change privacy choices.
  • Child-directed audiences must not receive behavioral advertising.

저작권·콘텐츠 정책 · COPYRIGHT

Original lessons first; protected media only with permission

The interface, original practice sentences, course structure, and original game presentation are Seoul Keys materials unless otherwise stated. Korean language facts and ordinary short expressions may not be proprietary, but a particular song lyric, screenplay, subtitle, recording, image, logo, character, or branded title can be protected by its owner.

  • K-POP lyrics and real K-Drama or film dialogue will be published only when licensed or otherwise lawfully usable.
  • Current drama-style practice lines are original dialogue and are not represented as quotations from a real production.
  • Rights-holder names and marks remain the property of their owners and do not imply endorsement.
  • Copyright owners and other affected parties can report a concern at travels444@gmail.com. Reports are reviewed and disputed material may be limited or removed while a concern is assessed.

아동·가족 안전 · CHILD SAFETY

A low-data learning environment

The service has no public chat, direct messaging, public profile, upload, or location-sharing feature. Signed-in progress uses an email address and display name. It is intended for general language learning and is not designed to collect children’s information without appropriate safeguards. Younger learners should use the service with a parent, guardian, or teacher. Age-appropriate design, parental consent, and regional child-privacy requirements must be reviewed before marketing accounts to children.

접근성 · ACCESSIBILITY

Learning should remain operable

Seoul Keys supports keyboard navigation, visible focus states, semantic labels, responsive layouts, reduced reliance on color alone, and independent audio controls. Learners can turn both pronunciation and completion sounds off. Accessibility issues can be reported through the contact page with the device, browser, page, and problem description.

CONTACT & REPORTING

Questions, corrections, and rights requests

Questions about the service, privacy requests, accessibility problems, content corrections, and copyright reports can be sent to travels444@gmail.com. Include the relevant page address and enough detail to identify the issue. Sensitive account or identity documents should not be included unless specifically requested through a secure process.

The About page explains the service purpose, lesson approach, and content correction process. The Contact page provides topic-specific email links.
