Privacy Policy for Audio Transcriber

Introduction

Welcome to Audio Transcriber ("we," "our," or "us"). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. This privacy policy explains how we handle information when you use our mobile application ("App").

Please read this privacy policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this privacy policy, please do not access or use the App.

Information We Collect

Audio Transcriber is designed with privacy as a priority. We do not collect any personal data that identifies you directly. In fact, we do not collect any data AT ALL.

The App processes the following information solely on your device:

• Audio Data: Spoken audio captured by your microphone or imported files.
• Transcripts: The text generated from the audio recognition.

We may collect anonymous, aggregated usage data and crash reports solely for the purpose of improving the App's performance and stability. This data does not contain personal information and cannot be linked back to you.

How We Use Information

The information processed by the App is used exclusively to:

• Provide the core speech-to-text functionality.
• Improve the App based on anonymized usage patterns and crash data.

Data Storage and Security

All audio data and generated transcripts are processed locally on your device using on-device speech recognition (subject to iOS capabilities) and stored locally. They are not uploaded to our servers or any third-party cloud storage unless you explicitly choose to share them or rely on Apple's cloud-based speech recognition services (if on-device is unavailable), which are governed by Apple's privacy policies.

You have full control over your transcripts stored within the App.

We rely on the security features provided by the iOS operating system to protect the data stored locally on your device.

Third-Party Services

The App does not integrate with third-party services for data collection or sharing, beyond the standard iOS functionalities like Speech Recognition and microphone access which are under your control.

We do not share your audio data or transcripts with third parties.

Your Privacy Choices

Your privacy choices include:

• Microphone & Speech Recognition: You control the App's permission to access your microphone and use Apple's speech recognition via iOS settings.
• Sharing: You decide if, when, and how to share your transcripts using the standard iOS share options.
• Data Deletion: You can delete transcripts stored within the App directly from your device.

Children's Privacy

Our App is not directed at individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Policy at any time and for any reason, without prior notice. Any changes or modifications will be effective immediately upon posting the updated Privacy Policy within the App or on our website. We encourage you to periodically review this Privacy Policy to stay informed of updates.

Your continued use of the App after the date such revised Privacy Policy is posted will be deemed acceptance of the changes.
