This policy covers SmartType Keyboard for iOS and Android, published by LTS Apps / Lohitech Solutions. Contact: admin@lohitechsolutions.com
SmartType is a keyboard with optional AI features (Grammar fix, Word tone, Translate, Rewrite, Assist, Smart Reply, Chat) and optional Premium subscriptions.
Like any keyboard, SmartType can read the text field you are typing in, so that keys, suggestions, undo and AI features work. Normal typing is never sent to our servers.
Text is sent for AI processing only after you agree to AI data sharing in the app, and only when you tap an AI action.
Password, private/incognito, email, phone and number fields never send text, never read the clipboard, and never show suggestions or AI.
If you decline or revoke AI sharing, the keyboard keeps working locally.
We do not sell your data. SmartType contains no advertising, analytics or crash-reporting SDKs and does not use advertising identifiers.
Typed or selected text: only when you tap an AI action after agreeing to AI sharing. Used for AI processing. Not stored on our servers.
Customise AI preferences (tone, style, reply length, target language): sent with AI requests.
Anonymous device ID: a random ID created by the app (not your name, account, advertising ID or hardware serial). Used for word quota, AI sessions, subscription status, referral codes and data deletion.
Device and app information sent with backend requests: When the app contacts our backend for features such as AI, subscription status and account management, it automatically sends its anonymous device ID together with app version and build, OS version, device model and platform. This information supports app functionality, support and compatibility in our admin system; it is not used for advertising or aggregated analytics and is not shared with third parties. It is stored with your anonymous device record and deleted when you use Delete my data.
Purchase information: if you subscribe or restore, the purchase token or transaction ID and product ID, used to verify Premium. Payments are handled by Apple (App Store) or Google Play; we never see your card details.
Referral code data: if you enter an influencer code, the code, platform, your device ID, whether you are a new subscriber, and, after a referred purchase, the transaction ID or purchase token, plus timestamps. Used to apply the offer and count redemptions per influencer. We do not collect your name or email for referrals.
AI reports: if you tap Report on an AI response, the action, the reason and a short excerpt of the flagged response. Your original typed text is not stored.
Product interaction: word counts used for quota (counts only, not the words).
We do not collect location, contacts, photos, browsing history or advertising identifiers.
SmartType uses Google LLC's Gemini AI service, through Google Cloud Vertex AI, to power its AI features. Before any text is sent, the app shows a disclosure and asks for your permission. When you agree and tap an AI action, the text in the current field (or your selection) and your Customise AI preferences are sent to the SmartType server, which forwards the text to Google for processing and returns the results. Our server processes the text in memory and does not store it. Google processes the data under its Google Cloud terms and privacy policy. The Gemini API key is stored only on our server, never in the app.
You can turn off AI sharing at any time in the app (iOS: Privacy, then Revoke AI sharing permission; Android: Settings, then AI data consent). AI features will ask again before sending any data.
On iOS, the clipboard is read only when you open the Clipboard panel. On Android, while SmartType is your selected keyboard, copied text may be added automatically to clipboard history when Android permits, or manually using Add from clipboard. Clipboard history is stored only on your device, up to 20 clips of 500 characters each, and is never uploaded or shared. Clipboard access is disabled in password, private/incognito, email, phone and number fields. Clips marked sensitive and non-text clips are skipped. You can clear saved clips in Settings or with Delete my data.
Voice typing is used only when you tap the microphone button. Audio is not sent to the SmartType server. Speech is converted to text by your device's built-in speech recognition service (Apple on iOS, the Android system recognizer on Android), which may process it under that provider's privacy policy.
On iOS, Allow Full Access is needed for AI network requests, the clipboard panel and voice typing. Without Full Access, local typing still works, but AI and clipboard features are limited.
Theme, toolbar order, one-handed mode, sound and haptics settings, Customise AI presets, saved clipboard items, consent choices and referral code drafts are stored only on your device (on iOS, in the app's App Group).
On your device: until you delete your data in the app, clear the app's storage, or uninstall.
On our servers: AI text is not stored. Your device ID, plan and quota, purchase tokens and referral records are kept while you use the service, until you delete your data.
After deletion: to prevent repeat abuse of free offers, we keep only a one-way hash of purchase tokens, the product ID and timestamps, and anonymized referral redemption counts that contain no device ID, email or typed text. Apple and Google keep their own payment records.
Server error logs do not contain your typed text.
In the Android app: Settings, then Delete my data. This deletes your server records for your device ID and clears data stored on your device.
By email (iOS or Android): write to admin@lohitechsolutions.com and ask us to delete the data linked to your device.
Deleting the app removes the data stored on your device. To delete server data, use Delete my data on Android or email us.
On Android, each AI response has a Report option. You can also email admin@lohitechsolutions.com about any AI response you think is harmful or wrong.
SmartType is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has used AI features, contact us and we will delete the related data.
All traffic between the app and our server uses HTTPS. AI provider keys are kept on the server. The Android app turns off cloud backup of app data.
Our server and Google Cloud may process data in the United States or other regions where those services run.
We may update this policy. When we do, we will change the effective date at the top of this page.
