Privacy Policy

Say & Translate – Voice · Effective 31 October 2026

In short: Say & Translate collects no personal data.

Speech recognition, translation and speech all run on your device.
Your voice, its transcription, its translation and the spoken audio are never sent to us or anyone else.
There are no accounts, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking.

Your voice and text

The app uses the microphone only while you are speaking a turn. The audio is turned into text, translated and spoken aloud on your iPhone or iPad, and is never sent anywhere. Text you type or paste is translated on your device in the same way.

History and Favorites

The current conversation is kept in the app’s memory while it is open. Unless you turn off Save Conversations in Settings, each finished translation is saved in History with its text and a recording of what the speaker said. Please tell the people you talk with that this is on. Recordings and favorites stay on your device and are left out of iCloud backups. You can delete them at any time, and deleting the app deletes them too.

Home Screen widget

If you add the widget, it shows your two languages and a few of your favorite or saved phrases. This stays on your device.

Downloads

Apple’s speech recognition and translation languages are downloaded by iOS, under Apple’s privacy policy. The app’s own models are downloaded when you tap Download in Models. They come directly from Hugging Face (huggingface.co), which receives the standard information any website receives with a download request, such as your IP address. Nothing you say or type is included. After that, the app works without an internet connection.

Purchases

Subscriptions and the lifetime purchase are handled entirely by Apple through the App Store. We never see your payment details or Apple Account. The app checks what you have bought through Apple’s StoreKit, on your device.

Settings

Your languages, your free language pair and your preferences are stored on your device. They are not sent anywhere.

Children

The app collects no personal data from anyone, including children.

Changes to this policy

If the app ever starts handling data differently, this page will be updated before that version is released, with a new effective date.
