Abelard Tech ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what data our apps collect, how we collect and use that data, and when data may be shared with third-party service providers.
1. Information We Collect
Depending on which features you use, we may collect and process:
- Account and contact data you provide when contacting support, such as your email address and support message.
- App analytics and diagnostics, including app launches, feature usage, crash events, device type, and language settings.
- User content you enter in the app, such as meeting context, prompts, and notes.
- Local audio and transcription data generated during your use of transcription and meeting features.
2. How We Collect Data
- Directly from you when you type, paste, or upload content in the app.
- Automatically from app usage and diagnostic events through analytics tooling.
- From on-device processing outputs, such as local transcription, when you choose to use related features.
3. How We Use Data
- Provide core app functionality, including transcription, meeting assistance, and summaries.
- Respond to your requests and support inquiries.
- Improve reliability, performance, and feature quality.
- Detect, prevent, and troubleshoot technical or security issues.
4. Third-Party AI Processing
If you enable Cloud AI features, we send selected meeting data to the AI provider you choose, such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or Azure OpenAI. Data may include transcript text, prompts, and meeting context you enter in the app.
We use this data only to provide AI features requested by you, such as live suggestions and meeting summaries.
We share data only after your explicit in-app permission. You can withdraw permission at any time in the app settings.
We require third-party providers we use to apply data protection measures that are the same as or stronger than our own standards.
5. Third-Party Services
We may use the following third-party services:
- Mixpanel for product analytics and diagnostics.
- AI providers you select for cloud AI features, only after explicit in-app consent.
6. Data Storage and Retention
Local recordings, transcripts, and meeting content are stored on your device. Where cloud AI is enabled by you, selected content is transmitted to your chosen provider to process your request. We retain data only as long as needed for product operation, legal compliance, and legitimate business purposes.
7. Security
We use administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.
8. Your Choices and Rights
- Cloud AI consent: you can allow or revoke third-party AI data sharing at any time in app settings.
- Local content controls: you can manage or delete recordings and transcripts stored on your device.
- Privacy requests: you can contact us to request access, correction, or deletion where applicable by law.
9. Updates to this Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date on this page.
