First-Run Consent Summary
Free Shadowing by Silverla Lab
Terms Version: 2026-08-09  |  Privacy Version: 2026-08-09
Effective Date: August 9, 2026
Before you start, please review these key points:
YouTube. Practice videos stream through YouTube embeds and may open YouTube. Free Shadowing does not download YouTube video files for practice playback. You must follow YouTube's applicable terms. Captions may be automatic and can contain errors or missing words.
Your microphone. When you submit a pronunciation attempt for scoring, your audio leaves your device. It is uploaded to the Free Shadowing backend and may be sent with reference text to Microsoft Azure Speech / Pronunciation Assessment. Free Shadowing temporarily processes server-side audio files and deletes those temporary files after scoring. A separate recording may remain on your device for replay.
Storage. Episodes, segments, attempts, WAV recordings, preferences, and session information may be stored locally. Account information and optional leaderboard data may be stored on our servers. Leaderboards may display your chosen display name and episode score, and leaderboard entries have no automatic expiration.
Accounts. Silverla ID accounts are optional where guest mode is available. Registered users can delete their account from Account settings. Account deletion does not automatically remove local WAV/practice files from the device.
Beta. Free Shadowing is a free beta. Captions and automated pronunciation scores can be inaccurate. The App is for educational and entertainment purposes and is not professional advice.
