SikhnaThe gateway to spoken Urdu
We collect only what Sikhna needs to provide a secure, useful learning experience.
Sikhna is an Urdu-learning service focused on spoken language, readable Urdu script, English transliteration, culture, and practice. Contact support@sikhna1.com with privacy questions.
When you create an account, we handle your email address, learner name or username, login status, and basic account identifiers. Passwords are handled by our authentication provider and are not stored directly in the Sikhna app.
We may handle placement answers, learning goals, profile settings, completed lessons, saved words, reviews, streaks, and time spent. In the current version, much of this learning activity is stored locally on your device.
When you request pronunciation audio, the Urdu text and playback settings needed for that request are sent securely through Sikhna to an audio-generation provider.
We do not sell your personal information. Sikhna does not currently display third-party advertising.
We currently use Supabase for account authentication and backend services, OpenAI for generated Urdu pronunciation audio, Cloudflare for this website and domain services, and Zoho Mail for support email.
We keep account information while your account is active and only as long afterward as reasonably needed for security, legal, or operational purposes. You may request access, correction, or deletion by emailing support or visiting the account deletion page.
Sikhna is not directed to children under 13. Contact us if you believe a child provided personal information without appropriate permission. We may update this policy as Sikhna grows and will revise the effective date when we do.
