Duolingo expanded its AI-powered conversation features to include a new Math Tutor feature alongside the existing Video Call feature, and introduced a new Session Replay service alongside FullStory for activity logging. For the Math Tutor feature, audio is shared with Apple for speech recognition and immediately deleted, while text transcripts may be retained and shared with AI vendors. The policy also clarified that FullStory and Session Replay can be disabled via the Tracking toggle, and added that Session Replay does not record email addresses, phone numbers, profile images, or passwords. Additionally, Duolingo extended IP address retention for payment processing and fraud prevention beyond the standard 30-day limit, and updated its list of advertising partners to include LiftOff, Pangle, and Moloco.
Consumers: A new service called Session Replay now logs your clicks, movements, typing, and device information, similar to FullStory, but you can disable it in Settings.
Consumers: When you use Math Tutor, your audio is sent to Apple to convert to text, then deleted, but the text transcript may be kept and shared with AI companies.
Consumers: If you have a paid subscription, Duolingo may keep your IP address longer than 30 days to process payments and prevent fraud.
The updated policy introduces a new Session Replay service that logs user activity alongside FullStory, capturing clicks, mouse movements, scrolling, typing, device information, navigation, and learning activity. Both services can be disabled using the Tracking toggle in app Settings, and both are automatically disabled for child users. The new Math Tutor feature shares audio with Apple for speech recognition and immediate deletion, but retains and shares text transcripts with AI vendors. For payment processing and fraud prevention, Duolingo may retain IP addresses beyond the standard 30-day period. You can disable both FullStory and Session Replay activity recording by toggling the Tracking setting within the app.
→ Disable FullStory and Session Replay activity recording by toggling the Tracking setting in app Settings if you prefer not to be logged.
