Privacy Policy

Our Privacy Commitment

Wisply is built with privacy as a core principle. All audio transcription and AI processing happens entirely on your device. We do not collect, transmit, or store your audio recordings or transcriptions.

Summary

Information We Collect

Core App Data

Your transcription data stays private and on your device. All audio processing happens locally.

• Audio recordings: Processed on-device using Apple Speech Framework, never transmitted
• Transcriptions: Stored locally on your device only using SwiftData
• AI insights: Generated on-device using Apple Intelligence
• Speaker profiles: Stored locally for diarization using FluidAudio

Subscription Management (RevenueCat)

For premium subscriptions, we use RevenueCat to manage purchases through the App Store:

• Purchase Metadata: Product identifiers, entitlement status, renewal status, and purchase/expiration dates used to verify subscription access
• RevenueCat App User ID / Device Identifier: Used for subscription management across devices (not used for advertising or cross-app tracking)
• Purpose: App functionality only - enabling premium features

Waitlist

If you join our waitlist, we collect your email address to notify you when the app launches. We do not share this with third parties or use it for other purposes.

Premium Tier and Cloud Sync

Premium subscriptions are currently available through Apple App Store in-app purchase. Cloud sync remains optional. If you choose to enable cloud sync:

• Transcript data is encrypted end-to-end before leaving your device
• Audio recordings are not uploaded to our servers
• We do not have access to transcript contents when end-to-end encryption is enabled
• Subscription status will be managed through Apple's App Store

On-Device Technologies

Wisply uses the following Apple technologies, all of which process data locally on your device:

• Apple Speech Framework (SpeechTranscriber): Real-time speech-to-text transcription
• Apple Foundation Models: On-device AI for generating summaries and insights
• SwiftData: Local database for storing your memos and transcripts
• ScreenCaptureKit: System audio capture (requires your explicit permission)
• File Timestamps: Used for sorting and displaying your memos chronologically
• Disk Space: Checked to manage audio file storage
• UserDefaults: Stores app preferences and settings locally

Third-Party: FluidAudio

Wisply uses FluidAudio for speaker diarization (identifying who said what). FluidAudio processes audio locally on your device and does not transmit any data externally.

Third-Party: RevenueCat

For subscription management, we use RevenueCat which accesses system boot time for device identification purposes. This is used solely for managing your subscription across devices and preventing unauthorized access.

Permissions

Wisply requests the following macOS permissions:

• Microphone: Required to transcribe your voice
• Screen Recording: Required for system audio capture (optional feature)
• Accessibility: Optional, for global keyboard shortcuts

You can revoke these permissions at any time in System Settings > Privacy & Security.

Data Storage

All your data is stored locally on your Mac in the app's sandboxed container:

• Memos and transcripts are stored in a SwiftData database
• Speaker embeddings are stored locally for consistent speaker identification
• App preferences are stored in UserDefaults

To delete all data, simply uninstall the app. You can also delete individual memos within the app.

Data Sharing

We do not sell your data. We do not share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

We may share information only in the following circumstances:

• With your explicit consent
• To comply with legal obligations
• To protect our rights or safety

Analytics (TelemetryDeck)

We use TelemetryDeck for privacy-friendly analytics to understand how the app is used and improve it:

• Product Interaction: Anonymous usage statistics (e.g., which features are used, app sessions)
• Not linked to your identity: Data is anonymized and cannot be tied back to you
• Not used for tracking: We do not track you across apps or websites
• No personal data: Your transcripts, audio, and speaker profiles are never sent
• Purpose: Analytics only - to improve app functionality and user experience

TelemetryDeck is privacy-focused and GDPR-compliant. No advertising IDs or personal identifiers are collected.
