TeleprompterPrivacy Policy
Effective November 9, 2026
This policy explains what information Teleprompter for Video Camera (“the app”) handles, where it goes and what choices you have. The app is developed by Mikita Arshynau (“I”, “me”), who is responsible for the processing described here.
- Your scripts, voice and videos stay on your device and in your own iCloud. I cannot see them.
- Speech recognition for voice scrolling runs on your device. Audio is never uploaded.
- The app sends anonymous usage statistics and crash reports. They never include the text of your scripts.
- No ads, no tracking across other apps and websites, no account.
Scripts and settings
Scripts you write or import and your prompter appearance settings are stored on your device. If iCloud is turned on for the app, Apple syncs them between your devices through your private iCloud database (CloudKit). This data belongs to your Apple Account; I have no access to it. Apple’s handling of iCloud data is described in the Apple Privacy Policy.
Files you import (for example text or Word documents) are read on your device to create a script and are not sent anywhere.
Camera, microphone and speech recognition
The app asks for camera and microphone access to record video and to follow your voice. Voice scrolling uses Apple’s on-device speech recognition: audio is processed in real time on your iPhone or iPad and is neither stored nor transmitted. Speech models for your language may be downloaded from Apple the first time you use it.
Photos
Finished recordings are saved to your Photos library. The app asks for permission to add videos to Photos. If you grant full access, it is used only to save recordings to an album, not to read your other photos.
Usage statistics
To understand which features are used and where people get stuck, the App Store version of the app uses Google Firebase Analytics. It records events such as “onboarding completed”, “recording saved” or “paywall shown”, together with simple details like the prompter mode, recording length or the speech language selected.
These events never include the text or title of your scripts. Script length is reported only as a range. Firebase uses a random app instance identifier, not your name, email or advertising identifier. Google processes your IP address to deliver the data and derive an approximate country; it is not stored with the events. The data is not linked to your identity and is not used for advertising.
Usage statistics are kept for up to 14 months and then deleted automatically.
Crash reports
If the app crashes, Firebase Crashlytics sends a crash report: the technical stack trace, device model, system version, app version and the random installation identifier. Crash reports are kept for 90 days and are used only to fix bugs.
Purchases
Subscriptions are sold and processed by Apple. I never receive your payment details. To check whether you have Pro and to restore purchases, the app uses RevenueCat, which receives the App Store receipt and an anonymous app user identifier. RevenueCat’s practices are described in its privacy policy.
Notifications
If you allow notifications, the app may schedule a local reminder on your device, for example when a limited-time offer becomes available. Local notifications are created on the device; no push token is sent to me.
Service providers
| Provider | Purpose | Data |
|---|---|---|
| Apple (iCloud, App Store) | Sync, purchases, speech models | Your scripts and settings in your iCloud; purchase records |
| Google Firebase Analytics | Usage statistics | App events, random identifier, device and app version, approximate country |
| Google Firebase Crashlytics | Crash reports | Stack traces, device model, system and app version, random identifier |
| RevenueCat | Subscription status | App Store receipt, anonymous user identifier |
These providers may process data outside your country, including in the United States, under their standard data protection terms.
What the app does not do
- It does not show ads and does not use the advertising identifier (IDFA).
- It does not track you across other companies’ apps or websites.
- It does not sell or share your personal information.
- It does not require an account, email or phone number.
Your choices and rights
- You can turn off camera, microphone, Photos and notification access at any time in iOS Settings.
- You can stop iCloud sync in iOS Settings → your name → iCloud. Deleting the app removes its local data; iCloud data can be removed in iOS Settings → your name → iCloud → Manage Account Storage.
- Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR or the CCPA), you may have the right to access, correct or delete your data and to object to its processing. Because statistics and crash reports are not linked to your identity, I usually cannot find them by your name. Write to me and I will help as far as possible.
The legal basis for usage statistics and crash reports is my legitimate interest in keeping the app reliable and improving it.
Children
The app is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Significant changes will also be mentioned in the app’s release notes.
