1. Information We Collect

Account Information. When you create an account, we collect your email address and basic profile information needed to authenticate your access.

Voice & Audio Data. Annie processes your voice input in real time to convert speech to text. Audio is streamed to our transcription service, processed, and immediately discarded. We do not store, retain, or replay your voice recordings.

Usage Data. We collect anonymous usage analytics such as feature usage frequency, session duration, and crash reports to improve the product. This data cannot be used to identify you personally.

Device Information. We may collect basic device information (operating system, app version) to provide compatibility and support.

3. Data Sharing & Third Parties

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share limited data with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating the service (e.g., cloud infrastructure, authentication, analytics), subject to strict confidentiality obligations. These providers include:

Google Cloud — for AI speech processing and infrastructure
Authentication Providers — for secure account sign-in
Analytics Services — for anonymized product usage data

We may also disclose information if required by law, regulation, or legal process.

4. Data Retention

Voice audio is processed in real time and never stored. Account information is retained for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will remove your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.

5. Security

We use industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including TLS encryption for all data in transit, secure authentication protocols, and access controls on our infrastructure.

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

Access the personal data we hold about you
Request correction or deletion of your data
Object to or restrict certain processing
Export your data in a portable format
Withdraw consent at any time

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected].

8. Children's Privacy

Annie is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such data, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.
