Last updated: 8/9/2025

This Privacy Policy describes how Voicehabits ("we", "our", or "us") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our mobile application. Voicehabits is developed and operated by Raphael Volpert as an individual developer.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly to us and information generated through your use of the app:

  • Account Information: Email address and display name when you create an account
  • Voice Recordings: Audio recordings you create for personal habit content
  • Habit Data: Your personal habit tracking information and notes
  • Usage Data: App usage analytics and performance metrics
  • Device Information: Device type, operating system version, and app version

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information solely to provide and improve Voicehabits:

  • Provide, maintain, and improve our app services
  • Process your voice recordings to create personalized habit content using AI speech generation
  • Sync your data across your devices
  • Provide customer support and respond to your inquiries
  • Analyze usage patterns to improve user experience
  • Send important service updates and notifications

We do not use your information for advertising purposes or sell your data to third parties.

3. Voice Data and AI Processing

Your voice recordings are treated with the highest level of security and privacy:

  • Voice recordings are encrypted both in transit and at rest
  • We use Replicate.com's AI services to generate speech from your voice recordings
  • Voice data is processed only for creating your personalized habit content
  • We never share your voice recordings with third parties for marketing or advertising
  • You can delete your voice recordings at any time

4. Data Storage and Backup

Voicehabits is designed to work offline with secure cloud backup:

  • Local Storage: Your data is stored locally on your device and the app functions fully offline
  • Cloud Backup: We use Amazon Web Services (AWS) S3 for secure backup of your local database
  • Encryption: All data is encrypted both locally and in cloud storage
  • No Third-Party Access: Only you and our secure servers can access your data

5. Third-Party Services

Voicehabits integrates with the following third-party services:

  • Replicate.com: AI speech generation services (voice data is processed according to their privacy policy)
  • Amazon Web Services (AWS): Secure cloud storage and backup services
  • Clerk: User authentication and account management

We carefully select third-party services that maintain high privacy and security standards. Your data is only shared with these services as necessary to provide Voicehabits functionality.

6. Our Business Model

We earn money by selling software licenses, not by compromising user privacy or selling personal information. Our revenue comes from app purchases and subscriptions, which allows us to maintain a privacy-first approach to our business.

7. Data Sharing and Sale

We do not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise monetize your personal information. We may share your information only in these limited circumstances:

  • With your explicit consent
  • To comply with legal obligations or court orders
  • To protect our rights, safety, or the safety of others
  • With essential service providers under strict confidentiality agreements (AWS, Replicate.com, Clerk)

We do not share your data for advertising purposes or with advertising networks.

8. Data Retention

We retain your information only as long as necessary to provide our services:

  • Account data is retained while your account is active
  • Voice recordings are retained until you delete them
  • Usage data is retained for analytics and improvement purposes
  • You can request deletion of your account and all associated data at any time

9. Your Privacy Rights

You have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Access: Request a copy of your personal data
  • Correction: Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Deletion: Request deletion of your data

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately, and we will take steps to remove that information.

11. Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information:

  • End-to-end encryption for sensitive data
  • Secure cloud storage with AWS
  • Regular security audits and updates
  • Limited access to personal data on a need-to-know basis

However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
