Privacy Policy

Effective 10 November 2026 · RecVault for Android

What stays on your device

Recordings, transcripts, notes, categories, bookmarks and settings are stored in the app's private storage on your phone. We have no copy and cannot recover them. Uninstalling the app or clearing its data deletes them permanently.

Transcription

When you tap Transcribe, that recording's audio is sent over an encrypted connection to our transcription service, converted to text by a speech-recognition provider acting on our behalf, and returned to your phone. Neither the audio nor the transcript is stored afterwards. Recordings you don't transcribe never leave your device.

Each request carries a random app identifier, used only to apply fair-use limits and to confirm the request comes from the genuine app. It does not identify you personally.

Usage information

To understand how the app is used and to find problems, we use third-party analytics providers. They receive app events (such as "a recording was saved"), basic device details (model, Android version, app version, country), a random install identifier, and recordings of how app screens are used. They never receive your audio, and the text of transcripts and notes is masked.

This website

This website uses an analytics provider to count visits and to see how its pages are used, including which pages are viewed, how far they are scrolled and which buttons are pressed. For visitors in Europe and the UK this is done without cookies or any other storage in your browser; elsewhere it may use a cookie. It does not receive anything from the app.

Advertising

RecVault is free and supported by ads from third-party advertising partners. To show and measure ads, they may collect your device's advertising ID, IP address, device details and how you interact with ads, and may personalise ads depending on your choices. Where the law requires it, the app asks for your consent first, and Settings → Ad privacy choices lets you change it. You can reset your advertising ID or opt out of personalised ads in Android's settings.

Things you choose to send

• Feedback you submit from Settings is stored with your device model and Android version so we can act on it.
• Sharing a recording, note or transcript sends it to the app you pick.

Your choices

• Delete any recording, note or transcript in the app, or everything by uninstalling.
• Don't tap Transcribe, and no audio ever leaves your phone.
• To ask about or request deletion of data held by our providers, contact us. Depending on where you live you may have further rights, such as access or correction, which we'll honour.

Other points

Everything the app sends travels over encrypted connections. We don't sell your data. RecVault isn't directed at children under 13. If this policy changes, we'll update this page and its date.
