This Privacy Policy explains how Local AI Audio Transcriber ("we", "us", or "our") handles information when you visit https://quitescribe.com (the "Website"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. Please read this policy carefully. By using the Website, you agree to the practices described below.
1. Local File Privacy — Zero Cloud Uploads
The core transcription feature of this Website is a fully client-side application. When you select a file:
- The file is read into your browser's local memory using standard browser APIs.
- Audio is decoded and analyzed by an AI model that runs on your own device.
- No file content, transcript text, or derived audio data is sent to us or to any third party.
Because processing is local, we cannot see your files or transcripts, and we do not create any server-side records of them.
2. Information We Collect
We do not require you to create an account, and we do not collect personal information through the transcription tool itself. We may collect limited, non-identifying information in the following ways:
- Log files: Like most websites, our hosting provider may automatically record standard server log data, such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type, Internet Service Provider, referring and exit pages, and date/time stamps. This data is used for aggregate analytics, security, and administering the Website, and is not linked to personally identifiable information.
- Contact submissions: If you contact us by email, we will receive the information you choose to provide (such as your email address and message) solely to respond to your inquiry.
3. Cookies
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device. Cookies on this Website may be used to remember preferences and to support advertising. You can disable cookies through your browser settings, though some features may not function as intended if you do.
4. Google AdSense and the DART Cookie
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google is a third-party vendor that uses cookies to serve ads on this Website.
- Google's use of the DoubleClick DART cookie enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visits to this Website and other sites on the Internet.
- Users may opt out of the use of the DART cookie for interest-based advertising by visiting the Google Ads Settings and Policies page.
5. Third-Party Advertising Vendors
Third-party vendors and ad networks, including Google, may use cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies to serve advertisements and collect information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.
- These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology in their respective advertisements and links that appear on this Website and are sent directly to your browser. They automatically receive your IP address when this occurs.
- We do not have access to or control over cookies or other technologies that third-party advertisers may use.
- You should consult the respective privacy policies of these third-party ad servers for more detailed information on their practices as well as for instructions about how to opt out of certain practices.
6. Your Advertising Choices and Opt-Out Links
You have several options to control interest-based advertising:
- Opt out of Google personalized advertising via Google Ad Settings.
- Opt out of many third-party vendors via the Digital Advertising Alliance.
- Opt out via the Network Advertising Initiative.
- European users can review choices at Your Online Choices.
7. Children's Privacy
This Website is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.
8. Data Security
Because the transcription tool operates locally within your browser, the most sensitive data — your media files and transcripts — never reaches our infrastructure. For the limited data our hosting and advertising partners process, we rely on their industry-standard security practices.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Website after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
