Privacy Policy
How the Masri Translator app handles your data, the device permissions it asks for, and the third-party services it relies on.
Overview
Masri Translator is a language-learning and translation app focused on Egyptian Arabic (Masri). Depending on how you use it, the app may provide AI-powered translation, conversation practice, dictionary assistance, word-of-the-day content, speech input, text-to-speech, bookmarks, and premium features.
This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use the app and which third-party systems are involved in certain features.
Data We Collect
Information you provide
- Text you type for translation, dictionary assistance, or AI chat practice.
- Voice input captured when you choose speech-to-text features.
- Gift codes you enter if you attempt to redeem promotional premium access.
- Optional support emails or other messages you send to us.
Information stored locally on your device
- Bookmarks you save in the app.
- Theme preference, launch counters, review-prompt state, and daily usage counters.
- Premium-override information stored locally when applicable.
Purchase and redemption information
- Purchase status or restore results returned by Apple App Store or Google Play.

How We Use Data

- To power AI chat tutoring, dictionary enrichment, and word-of-the-day content.

- To store bookmarks and app preferences on your device.

Permissions and Device Features
Internet access
Required for AI translation, chat, premium validation flows, exchange-rate lookups, and other online features.
Audio playback
Used for pronunciation or text-to-speech playback inside the app.
System sharing and external links
Used when you choose to share content or open linked resources outside the app.
If you deny a permission or disable network access, some app features may not work correctly.
Third-Party Services
The current Masri Translator build relies on or interacts with third-party services such as:
- OpenAI APIs for certain translation, AI tutor, dictionary, word-of-the-day, and speech-generation features.
- Apple App Store and Google Play for in-app purchases and restoration flows.
- Platform speech-recognition services when microphone-based input is used.
- An external exchange-rate endpoint for currency conversion features.
- An external gift-code redemption endpoint used to validate promotional premium access.
These providers may process your submitted content according to their own privacy policies and terms.
AI Features and Voice Tools
- Translation text, tutor prompts, or dictionary requests may be transmitted to OpenAI-based services to generate responses.
- Voice-generated playback may rely on remote text-to-speech requests for certain translation features.
- Speech-to-text relies on microphone input and may use platform-level speech recognition services.
- AI output can be incomplete, inaccurate, or context-dependent and should not be treated as guaranteed truth.
Premium Features, Purchases, and Gift Codes
- Premium purchases are processed through the relevant app store, not directly by Bouiz.
- The app may store purchase status or local override information to unlock premium features.
- If you redeem a gift code, that code is sent to the configured redemption endpoint to determine whether it is valid, used, or expired.
- Gift-code and store-related outcomes may affect translation limits, voice limits, and other premium functionality.
Retention, Security, and Your Controls
- Bookmarks and app preferences remain on your device until you clear app data or uninstall the app.
- Support communications may be retained for support, security, or record-keeping purposes.
- We use reasonable steps to protect information, but no method of storage or transmission is completely secure.
- You can revoke microphone access, uninstall the app, or clear local app storage through your device settings.
Children and International Processing
Masri Translator is intended as a general-audience educational and language tool. If you believe a child has submitted personal data through the app inappropriately, contact us so we can review the matter.
Because remote AI and other service providers may process feature requests outside your country, information may be handled in other jurisdictions depending on your platform and the provider used.
