Privacy Policy
Last Updated: May 15, 2026
Welcome to VoiceToNotes.ai. This Privacy Policy explains how VoiceToNotes.ai ("VoiceToNotes," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, protects, and shares your personal data — and what choices you have when using our website, apps, and services (collectively, the "Services"). We believe a privacy policy should be something real people can actually read. So we have written this one in plain language, the way we would want to read it ourselves. No legal fog. No buried conditions. By using the Services, you agree to the practices described here. If you do not agree, please do not access or use the Services.
Information We Collect
The information we collect depends on how you use the platform.

- Full name and email address.
- Profile photo.
- Phone number (if you opt in to SMS communications).
- Login credentials and password.
- Subscription and billing details.
- Support messages, feedback, and survey responses.
If you choose not to provide certain information, some features may not be available to you.
B. Customer Content — Voice, Transcripts, and AI Outputs
VoiceToNotes transcribes your voice live as you speak — no audio file uploads required. When you use our transcription or AI features, we may process:

If you enable optional Context Awareness features, limited contextual information may be collected to improve transcription accuracy. You can opt out at any time in your settings. Your Customer Content is processed only to deliver the features you request. We do not sell your notes, recordings, or personal content to any third party.
C. Reading and Library Activity (VTN Reads)
When using VTN Reads, we may collect:
- Reading progress and session data.
- Saved collections and bookmarks.

We automatically collect information about how you interact with the Services, including:
- IP address and approximate location.
- Browser type, version, and device details.
- Pages visited, session duration, and feature interactions.

This helps us maintain security, fix bugs, and improve the platform for everyone.

F. Third-Party Platform Connections
