- Make informed decisions about future development
We never sell, rent, or share this data with third parties for advertising or marketing purposes.
5. On-Device Processing

- All transcription happens on your device
- AI summaries are generated locally

The App works completely offline. All features are available without an internet connection, ensuring your data never needs to leave your device.
6. Data Storage
6.1 Local Storage
All your recordings, transcriptions, and documents are stored locally on your device using iOS/macOS secure storage mechanisms.
6.2 No Cloud Sync
Inscribe does not include cloud sync functionality. Your data remains exclusively on the device where you created it.
6.3 Backups
If you back up your device to iCloud or your computer, your Inscribe data will be included in that backup according to your device's backup settings. These backups are managed by Apple and subject to Apple's privacy policy.
7. Data Security
We take data security seriously:
- All data is stored using iOS/macOS secure storage

9. Children's Privacy
Inscribe does not knowingly collect any information from children. The App is suitable for all ages and processes all data locally on the device. Parents should monitor their children's use of recording features to ensure compliance with applicable laws.
10. Your Rights
Since we don't collect personal information, there's no personal data for you to access, modify, or delete from our servers. All your data exists only on your device, and you have complete control over it:
- Delete any recording or document at any time through the App
- Uninstall the App to remove all data from your device

Inscribe is available worldwide. Since all processing happens on your device, your data never crosses borders or leaves your device, regardless of where you're located.
12. California Privacy Rights
Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), California residents have certain rights. However, since we don't collect personal information that falls under CCPA, these rights do not apply to the use of Inscribe.
13. GDPR Compliance
For users in the European Union, we comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Since we don't collect personal data, GDPR's requirements regarding personal data processing do not apply to Inscribe's core functionality. The minimal anonymized analytics we collect cannot be used to identify individuals.
14. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by:
- Updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy
- Providing notice through the App (for significant changes)
Your continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.
15. Recording Consent
Important Legal Notice: While we protect the privacy of your data, you are responsible for ensuring you have the legal right to record others. Many jurisdictions require consent from all parties before recording conversations. Always check your local laws and obtain necessary consent before recording.
