Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 23, 2026

Insparks ("we", "our", "us") respects your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights.

1. Data We Collect

Account information: Name, email address, and password hash when you register.
Voice recordings: Audio files you record are uploaded to our servers for AI transcription.
Notes and content: Text notes, tags, summaries, and attachments you create.
Device information: Device model, OS version, and app version for crash reporting and diagnostics.
Usage analytics: Anonymous interaction events (e.g., screens visited, features used) to improve the product.

2. How We Use Your Data

Transcription: Voice recordings are processed by third-party AI services (OpenAI Whisper for speech-to-text, DeepSeek/OpenAI for content summarization) to generate transcriptions, summaries, and key points. Your explicit consent is obtained before any data is sent. Recordings are stored on our servers and are not shared with third parties beyond these processing services.
Product improvement: Anonymized usage data helps us understand which features are valuable.
Crash reporting: We use Sentry to collect crash reports and performance data. These may include device info and breadcrumbs but never recording content.
Communication: We may email you about important product updates or feedback requests. You can opt out at any time.

3. Data Storage & Security

Your data is stored on encrypted servers. Voice recordings and notes are associated with your account and are not accessible to other users. We use HTTPS for all data transmission.

4. Third-Party Services

OpenAI: For voice transcription (Whisper) and content summarization. Audio and text data are sent to OpenAI's API and processed according to their API data usage policy. Data sent via the API is not used to train OpenAI models.
