What happens to a try

Each try goes to our server and is scored by Microsoft Azure AI Speech against the words on the screen, then deleted. We keep nothing of a try: not the recording, the text or the score. A score is an estimate from an AI, not a test result. You have 20 tries a day in this browser, or on your account when you are signed in. What we keep
