Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Voicr ("we", "our", or "us"), operated by Aleksandr Shelestov PR JustOneDev, collects, uses, and protects information when you use the Voicr macOS application ("the App").

We have designed Voicr with privacy as a core principle. The App requires no account, stores your recordings and notes locally on your device, and collects the minimum data necessary to operate the service.

If you have any questions about this policy, please contact us at [email protected].

2. Who We Are (Data Controller)

For the purposes of the UK and EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the data controller is:

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, you have certain rights under GDPR and UK GDPR respectively. These are described in Section 8.

3. What Data We Collect and Why

3.1 Data Stored Locally on Your Device

The following data is created and stored exclusively on your Mac. We have no access to it, and it is never transmitted to our servers or any third party:

Legal basis (GDPR Art. 6(1)(b)): Processing necessary to perform the contract — i.e. to provide the App's core features.

3.2 Data Sent to Our API

When you record a voice input, the following is transmitted to our processing API solely to handle your request:

We do not store your audio or transcribed text on our servers. Your content is processed and deleted in real time.

Legal basis (GDPR Art. 6(1)(b)): Processing necessary to perform the contract.

3.3 Data Processed by OpenAI

To power transcription and AI polishing, your audio and text are sent to OpenAI for processing using models including Whisper (transcription) and GPT-4o mini (polishing).

OpenAI may retain API inputs and outputs for up to 30 days for abuse monitoring purposes, after which they are deleted. OpenAI does not use API data to train its models by default.

You can review OpenAI's data handling practices here:

• OpenAI API Privacy Policy
• OpenAI Privacy Policy

Legal basis (GDPR Art. 6(1)(b)): Processing necessary to perform the contract. OpenAI acts as a data processor on our behalf under a Data Processing Agreement.

3.4 Data Handled by Apple

The App is distributed via the Mac App Store. If you purchase a subscription, payment is processed entirely by Apple. We do not receive or store your payment details.

Apple's privacy practices are governed by the Apple Privacy Policy.

4. Data We Do Not Collect

We want to be explicit about what we do not do:

• We do not require you to create an account
• We do not collect your name, email address, or any personal identifiers
• We do not store your audio recordings
• We do not store your transcribed or polished text on our servers
• We do not sell, rent, or share your data with advertisers or third parties for marketing
• We do not use your data to train AI models
• We do not track your behaviour across apps or websites

5. Data Transfers Outside the EEA / UK

Your audio and text are processed by OpenAI, whose infrastructure is based in the United States. This constitutes a transfer of personal data outside the EEA and UK.

This transfer is governed by OpenAI's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) in accordance with GDPR Article 46. For more information, see OpenAI's Data Processing Addendum.

6. Data Retention

7. Security

We take reasonable technical measures to protect the data we handle:

• All data transmitted between the App and our API is encrypted in transit (TLS)
• All data transmitted to OpenAI is encrypted in transit
• Local data on your Mac is protected by macOS's built-in security model
• We do not maintain databases containing your audio or transcription content

8. Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are located in the EEA or UK, you have the following rights regarding any personal data we hold:

Because Voicr stores almost all data locally on your device, most of these rights can be exercised directly within the App by deleting your history, notes, and preferences.

For data held on our servers (device identifier, OS version), please contact us at [email protected] and we will respond within 30 days.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority. In the EU, you can find your authority at edpb.europa.eu. In the UK, the relevant authority is the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).

9. Children's Privacy

Voicr is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or under 16 in certain EEA countries). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided data through the App, please contact us at [email protected] and we will take prompt action.

10. Mac App Store

The App is distributed through the Apple Mac App Store. Apple may collect certain diagnostic and usage data in accordance with your device settings and their own privacy policy. We do not control or have access to this data. Please review Apple's Privacy Policy for details.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this document. For significant changes, we will notify you via an in-app notice or the App Store update notes.

Your continued use of Voicr after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.

12. Contact

If you have any questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy, please contact:

We aim to respond to all privacy-related enquiries within 30 days.
