RecScribe: Record & Transcribe (“RecScribe,” “the App,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how information is processed when you use our audio recording, real-time transcription, and AI summary features.
The App does not require you to create an account to use its core functionality.
Our audio recording and real-time transcription features are designed to operate locally on your device. The AI Summary feature uses cloud-based processing and may transmit relevant content to third-party service providers to generate summaries.
When you use the recording feature, the App accesses your device's microphone, subject to your permission, to capture audio.
Audio recordings are designed to be stored locally on your device. The App does not require you to upload recordings to cloud storage merely to record audio.
Recordings may contain voices, conversations, personal information, or other content captured during recording. You are responsible for ensuring that you have the necessary consent and legal authority to record the relevant content.
If you choose to use a feature that requires cloud processing, relevant content may be transmitted as described in this Privacy Policy.
The real-time transcription feature converts spoken words into text through on-device processing.
The resulting transcripts may contain names, statements, personal information, and other content included in the recording.
Transcription is designed to occur locally on your device. We do not describe local transcription as requiring the transmission of audio to a remote speech recognition service.
If you use the AI Summary feature, relevant transcript content may be transmitted for cloud-based processing as described below.
The AI Summary feature uses cloud-based AI processing to generate summaries, key points, and other supported outputs.
To provide this feature, relevant content from a recording or transcript may be sent to the applicable third-party processing service.
The specific content transmitted depends on the processing workflow used by the feature. You should avoid submitting sensitive or confidential information unless you have the necessary rights and are comfortable with the applicable processing arrangements.
AI-generated summaries may not accurately represent every statement or detail in the original content.
The App may request permission to access your microphone to record audio.
Other permissions may be requested if necessary for features such as importing or exporting files, depending on the functionality included in the published version.
You can manage permissions through your device settings. Disabling a required permission may prevent the associated feature from functioning.
If you purchase a subscription through Apple's App Store, Apple processes the transaction under its applicable terms and privacy policies.
We may rely on applicable purchase or subscription status information to provide access to subscription features.
We do not collect or store your full payment card details when payment is processed directly by Apple.
The App does not require you to register for an account or sign in to use its core features.
We therefore do not require you to provide an account name, password, or account registration email to use those features.
If you contact us directly for support, we may process the contact information and message content you choose to provide so that we can respond to your inquiry.
Audio recording and real-time transcription are designed to be processed on your device.
Audio recordings and transcripts are intended to remain in local device storage unless you choose to share or export them, or relevant content is submitted for a feature that requires cloud processing.
Local storage and processing behavior may depend on your device, operating system, and the App's implementation.
The AI Summary feature requires cloud-based processing.
When you request a summary, relevant content from your recording or transcript may be transmitted to the applicable AI service provider so it can generate the requested output.
The service provider may process that content according to the service configuration, applicable contractual arrangements, and its relevant privacy terms.
We do not identify a particular AI provider in this Privacy Policy because the provider has not been specified in the product information available for this version.
If the App allows you to share or export recordings, transcripts, or summaries, information you choose to share may be transferred to the destination application or service.
Once information has been shared with another application or third party, its handling may be governed by that party's own privacy practices.
Please review the content before sharing it, especially if it contains personal, confidential, or sensitive information.
Information is processed as necessary to:
Record audio and provide local transcription.
Generate AI summaries and related outputs that you request.
Provide recording, transcript, and summary management features.
Process and verify subscription entitlements where applicable.
Respond to support requests that you initiate.
Maintain the security and functionality of the App where necessary.
Comply with applicable legal obligations.
We do not claim that recordings or transcripts are used for purposes beyond those described here unless such use is separately disclosed and supported by an appropriate legal basis or consent where required.
We do not sell your audio recordings, transcripts, or AI-generated summaries to third parties for their independent commercial use.
Information may be shared or processed in the following circumstances:
Relevant recording or transcript content may be transmitted to third-party AI service providers when you use the cloud-based AI Summary feature.
The information is transmitted to support the requested processing. The applicable provider's identity, processing arrangements, and retention practices depend on the service integrated into the published App.
Apple processes payments and subscriptions purchased through the App Store under its applicable terms and policies.
We may receive subscription status information necessary to provide access to paid features.
We may disclose information where required by applicable law, valid legal process, or a lawful request from a competent authority.
We may also process or disclose information where reasonably necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims or protect the rights, safety, and security of users or our services, subject to applicable law.
If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of the transaction, subject to applicable privacy laws and safeguards.
Recordings and transcripts are designed to be stored locally on your device.
You can manage or delete locally stored content through the App's available functionality or the relevant device storage controls.
The exact effect of deleting a file may depend on your device, backups, exports, and other copies you may have created.
Deleting the App may remove locally stored content, depending on the operating system and storage configuration. You should not rely on App deletion as a guaranteed method of securely erasing every copy of your information.
Content submitted to the AI Summary feature may be processed or retained by the relevant service provider as necessary to provide the service and in accordance with the provider's applicable configuration, contractual arrangements, and legal obligations.
We do not specify a fixed retention period for cloud-processed content because the applicable provider and its retention configuration have not been confirmed.
Deleting a local recording or transcript does not necessarily delete content previously transmitted to a third-party service.
If you contact us, information you provide may be retained as reasonably necessary to respond to your request, resolve issues, and meet applicable legal obligations.
Where applicable, you may contact us to request deletion of personal information that we control. We will assess and respond to such requests in accordance with applicable law and any legitimate retention requirements.
We take reasonable steps, appropriate to the nature of the information and our role in processing it, to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.
The security measures applicable to local information depend in part on your device and its security settings. Cloud-based processing is also subject to the technical and organizational measures of the relevant service provider and any applicable contractual safeguards.
No method of storage or transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You should keep your device secure and exercise care when recording, processing, or sharing sensitive information.
The AI Summary feature may involve processing by a service provider located outside your country of residence.
Where information is transferred internationally and applicable law requires safeguards, the relevant parties must implement appropriate transfer mechanisms or other lawful safeguards.
The countries in which information is processed depend on the service provider and its infrastructure.
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have the right to:
Request access to personal information we hold about you.
Request correction of inaccurate personal information.
Request deletion of personal information.
Object to or request restriction of certain processing.
Request a portable copy of certain information.
Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
Lodge a complaint with a relevant data protection authority.
To exercise applicable rights regarding information we control, contact us using the details in Section 13.
Requests may be subject to identity verification and legal exceptions. We will handle valid requests in accordance with applicable law.
Because the App does not require an account, we may need additional information to identify the relevant information when responding to a request. Please do not send sensitive recordings or transcripts unless necessary.
The App is not intended for children who are not legally permitted to use it under applicable law.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in circumstances where such collection is prohibited.
If you believe a child has provided personal information to us in violation of applicable requirements, please contact us so that we can review the matter and take appropriate action.
Where specific children's privacy laws apply, we will comply with their requirements.
The App uses Apple's App Store services for applicable subscriptions and uses a cloud-based AI service to generate summaries.
These third-party services may have their own privacy policies, terms, and data handling practices.
This Privacy Policy does not govern information that third parties collect independently under their own policies. We encourage you to review the relevant disclosures where applicable.
We will update this Privacy Policy if material changes to the App's data processing practices require additional disclosures.
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in the App, processing practices, service providers, or applicable legal requirements.
The updated version will be published through the App or another appropriate channel, together with a revised “Last Updated” date.
Where required by law, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent before implementing material changes.
