Copyright & Intellectual Property
All original content on jpnotes.app — including text, grammar explanations, example sentences, kanji breakdowns, quizzes, and website design — is the intellectual property of JP Notes and is protected by copyright law.
You may quote short excerpts (up to 3 example sentences) for educational purposes, provided you include a link back to the original page on jpnotes.app. Bulk reproduction, mirroring, or republishing of content is strictly prohibited without prior written consent.

AI-Assisted Content Disclosure
Transparency matters to us. Some content on this site is generated with the assistance of AI language models (such as Claude and Gemini). We believe in being upfront about this.
To ensure accuracy, all AI-generated Japanese language content undergoes the following quality checks:
- ✓Kanji readings are cross-checked against verified Jouyou Kanji databases
- ✓JLPT level classifications are verified against established JLPT resource lists
- ✓Sino-Vietnamese (Han-Viet) readings are validated against Han-Viet dictionaries
- ✓Example sentences are reviewed for grammatical accuracy and natural usage
Despite these checks, errors may occasionally occur. If you spot an inaccuracy, please let us know so we can correct it promptly.

Privacy Policy
Your privacy is important to us. This section explains what data we collect and how we use it.
Information We Collect
We do not require user registration and do not collect personally identifiable information (PII). We do not use cookies for tracking individual users. Any learning progress data (such as quiz scores) is stored locally in your browser using localStorage and is never sent to our servers.
Analytics
We use privacy-friendly analytics tools to understand aggregate visitor behavior — such as which pages are most popular and how visitors find our site. This data is anonymized and cannot be used to identify individual users.
Third-Party Services
This site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare may collect standard web server logs (IP addresses, browser type, pages visited) as part of their service. Please refer to Cloudflare's Privacy Policy for details. In the future, we may display advertisements through Google AdSense or similar services, which may use cookies. We will update this policy accordingly if and when that occurs.
Children's Privacy
JP Notes is suitable for learners of all ages. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children under 13. Since we do not require registration or collect PII, no special parental consent is needed.
