Privacy

You don’t need an account to use the dictionary. If you sign in, we keep only what is listed below.

What we store

  • The id of the account you signed in with (Google, Discord or GitHub).
  • Your name and picture as that service gives them, and your email if Google gives it.
  • Your favorite words.
  • A sign-in cookie (sid) that keeps you signed in for 30 days.

When you report a problem, edit a word or record it

  • We keep what you sent and a keyed hash of your IP address, to stop spam. The address itself is not stored.
  • A recording is kept as an mp3 file; if it is not approved, the file is deleted.
  • Cloudflare Turnstile checks that you are not a bot. It loads only when you open the form.

When you check words (Is it right?)

  • We keep each answer (right or wrong, and a reason if you give one) with a keyed hash of your IP address and of a random id in the voter cookie, or with your account when you are signed in. The admin sees how many people answered, not who.

What we don’t do

  • We store no passwords: you sign in only with Google, Discord or GitHub.
  • There are no ads and no tracking cookies.
  • We never sell or share your data.

Cookies and browser storage

  • sid: keeps you signed in. oauth: only while signing in, for 10 minutes. nsfw: your choice about vulgar words. voter: a random id, so the words you already checked aren’t shown again (a year).
  • Your browser’s storage (localStorage) keeps the theme, the translation direction and, without an account, your favorite words. They never leave your device.
  • The server log keeps the pages requested and the browser’s name, to fix errors.

Deleting

  • “Delete account” on your account page immediately deletes your name, picture, email, favorite words and connected accounts.
  • What you contributed to the dictionary stays, without your name.

Show vulgar words?

Some Mingrelian words and phrases are vulgar: swear words and the like. Once turned on, they appear in search results like any other word. You can turn this off at any time at the bottom of the page.
