Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026

Pin Note (the "app") is developed by Ali Murat Kuslu ("developer", "we"). This page explains what data is collected while using the app, how it is processed, and who it is shared with.

Cloud-Based AI Summarization

By default, the app attempts to generate summaries on-device (Apple Intelligence). When on-device summarization is unavailable, or if you choose a cloud-based provider (e.g. OpenAI or Anthropic), only that recording's transcript text is sent through our backend (Cloudflare Workers) to the selected provider solely to generate a summary. This text is not permanently stored — it is used only to produce the summary.

Data Retention

Your recordings, transcripts, and notes are stored only on your own device and remain there until you delete them. On our servers, we only retain subscription/quota status tied to your anonymous device identifier — your audio, transcript, or summary text is never stored permanently on our servers.

Third-Party Service Providers

The app contains no advertising network or third-party analytics/tracking SDKs.

Your Rights

Deleting the app removes all recordings, transcripts, and notes from your device. To request deletion of your anonymous quota record on our server, please contact us through the support section below.

Children's Privacy

Pin Note is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect data from this age group.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be posted on this page.

Support
