Audiary
Privacy Policy
Overview
Audiary is a text-to-speech app for iOS. Your privacy is important to us. This policy explains what data Audiary collects, how it is used, and your choices.
Data Collection
Audiary does not collect, transmit, or store any personal data on external servers. All user content (text, audiaries, settings, and listening history) is stored locally on your device.
What stays on your device
- Text you add or import into Audiary
- Playback settings (voice selection, speed, theme, word tracking preference)
- Listening statistics (total time listened, completed audiaries)
- Purchase status
Apple services
Audiary uses the following Apple-provided services:
- In-App Purchases (StoreKit): Purchase transactions are processed entirely by Apple. Audiary receives only a confirmation of purchase status. We do not have access to your payment information.
- Crash Reports (App Store Connect): If you have opted in to share analytics with app developers through your iOS Settings, Apple may share anonymized, aggregated crash data with us. This data contains no personally identifiable information. You can control this in Settings > Privacy & Security > Analytics & Improvements > Share with App Developers.
- Text-to-Speech (AVSpeechSynthesizer): All speech synthesis is performed on-device using Apple's built-in speech engine. No text is sent to any server for processing.
Data we do NOT collect
- No analytics or usage tracking
- No advertising identifiers
- No location data
- No contacts or calendar access
- No microphone or camera access
- No network requests to third-party services
- No accounts or sign-ins
Data Sharing
Audiary does not share any data with third parties. We have no servers, no databases, and no data pipelines.
Data Storage and Security
All data is stored in your device's local storage using Apple's SwiftData framework. If you use the Share Extension to import content, that content is stored in a shared app container on your device — it is never transmitted externally.
Data Deletion
You can delete any audiary at any time from within the app. Uninstalling Audiary removes all associated data from your device.
Children's Privacy
Audiary does not knowingly collect any data from children under 13. Since the app collects no personal data from any user, there is no children's data to protect.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
