Privacy Policy

Last updated: 28 August 2026

Short version: Diting turns speech into text. We never store audio. We store the resulting text and your email address so you can see your records. You can delete everything at any time.

1. Who we are

Diting is operated from Australia. This policy explains how we handle personal information under the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and, where applicable, other privacy laws. Contact: hello@diting.app.

2. What we collect

• Apple ID sign-in — we receive an anonymised identifier (and your email only if you choose to share it) via Sign in with Apple, used to identify your account. Subscription purchases are processed by Apple; we use RevenueCat to manage subscription status, which receives your purchase receipt but never your transcripts.
• Transcripts, translations, and summaries — the text produced from conversations you choose to caption, together with the date, time, duration, and language pair.
• Basic technical data — such as device type, app version, and error logs, used to keep the Service working.

We do not collect or store audio recordings. Audio is streamed for transcription and discarded; it is not written to our servers.

We do not collect your contacts, location, photos, or advertising identifiers, and we do not use third-party advertising or tracking SDKs.

3. How audio and text are processed

When you press Start, audio from your microphone is sent in real time to a speech-recognition and translation provider (currently Google's Gemini API) to produce text. After you press Stop, the text is sent to the same provider to generate a summary. These providers process data on our behalf under their own terms and do not use your data to train their models under the API terms we use. Transcripts and summaries are then stored in our database, hosted by Supabase.

Data may be processed or stored outside Australia (for example in the United States). By using Diting you consent to this transfer.

4. Why we use your information

• To provide the Service: live captions, transcripts, and summaries.
• To sign you in and keep your records associated with your account.
• To diagnose and fix problems.

We do not sell your information, use it for advertising, or use your transcripts to train models.

5. Other people's information

Transcripts will contain what other people said. You are responsible for telling them and for complying with any recording or consent laws that apply where you are. Diting includes an on-screen card you can show to the people you are speaking with.

6. Retention and deletion

• Transcripts and summaries are kept until you delete them. Long-press any record in the app to delete it.
• You can delete your whole account from Settings. This permanently removes your email address and all your records from our database.
• Backups are purged within 30 days of deletion.

7. Security

Data is encrypted in transit and at rest with our hosting provider. Access to the database is restricted. No system is perfectly secure; if we become aware of a breach affecting your data we will notify you as required by law.

8. Your rights

You can access, correct, export (copy from within the app), or delete your information at any time. If you have a question or complaint about how we handle your information, email hello@diting.app. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (oaic.gov.au).

9. Children

Diting is not intended for people under 16 and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

10. Changes

We may update this policy. The "Last updated" date will change, and material changes will be noted in the app.
