1. Information We Collect
Account Information
When you sign in with Google, we receive your email address, display name, and profile photo from Google OAuth. This is used to identify your account.
Content Data
- Screenshots: Selected screen areas are sent to our servers for translation. Images are processed in real time and not stored after the response is returned.
- Audio: Voice recordings are sent for transcription and translation. Audio data is processed in real time and not stored after the response is returned.
- Text: Text submitted via Comment, Improve, or Summarize features is sent for processing and not stored after the response is returned.
Usage Data
We log each translation request including: request type (screenshot, audio, text), AI model used, token count, and credits charged. This data is used for billing, abuse prevention, and service improvement.
Payment Data
Payments are processed by Stripe. We store transaction records (amount, currency, package type, timestamp) but never receive or store your credit card details. See Stripe's Privacy Policy.
Device Information
The App checks for updates by contacting our update server. During this check, the app version and platform are transmitted. No other device information is collected.
2. How We Use Your Data
- Provide translation, transcription, and text processing services
- Manage your credit balance and process payments
- Enforce rate limits and prevent abuse (30 requests per minute)
- Check for and deliver application updates
- Improve service quality and fix bugs
We do not use your content (screenshots, audio, text) for training AI models.
