1. Overview
Cortx AI ("the App") is developed and operated by Okay Kacar.
Your privacy matters. Cortx AI is designed to help you record, transcribe, and summarize audio using artificial intelligence. The app collects only limited and anonymized data necessary to function properly and improve user experience.
Important: Transcriptions and summaries generated by Cortx AI are AI-processed content. Results are produced by artificial intelligence models (OpenAI Whisper for transcription, GPT-4 for summarization) and may not be 100% accurate.
2. Data We Collect
When you use Cortx AI, we collect:
- Usage and interaction data, such as app launches, screen views, taps, navigation, and feature usage
- Technical diagnostics data, such as crash reports and performance metrics
- Purchase-related events, such as paywall views and completed purchases, without access to payment or billing details
- Transcription metadata, such as recording duration, language detected, and processing success/failure rates (not the actual audio content or transcripts)
We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, physical addresses, contact lists, or precise location data.
3. Audio Recordings and Content
Cortx AI allows you to record audio, upload audio files, input text, and provide web links for AI processing.
- Audio recordings are sent to our AI processing servers for transcription
- Audio is processed in real-time and is not permanently stored on our servers after processing completes
- Transcripts and summaries are returned to your device and stored locally
- You can delete any note, transcript, or recording at any time
- We do not use your audio recordings, transcripts, or summaries to train AI models
- Text inputs and web link content are processed the same way — not stored after processing
4. AI-Generated Content Disclosure
All transcriptions and summaries created through Cortx AI are generated by artificial intelligence.
- Transcriptions are produced by OpenAI Whisper and may contain errors or inaccuracies
- Summaries are generated by GPT-4 and represent an AI interpretation of the content
- Speaker identification is AI-based and may not always be accurate
- Users should verify important information from AI-generated transcripts and summaries
- Cortx AI is not a substitute for professional transcription services in legal or medical contexts
5. Authentication and Identifiers
Cortx AI supports Apple Sign In for optional account creation. The app also uses a persistent device identifier for users who do not sign in.
- Apple Sign In: If you choose to sign in, we receive your Apple ID, name, and email (if shared). This is managed through Apple's secure authentication system.
- Device identifier: A random, anonymous identifier tied to your device for tracking token balance, purchases, and note management
The device identifier:
- Cannot be used to identify you personally
- Is not linked to your real-world identity (unless you sign in with Apple)
- Is not used for advertising or cross-app tracking
6. Third-Party Services
To operate the app, we rely on trusted third-party services:
- AI transcription and summarization (OpenAI — Whisper and GPT-4)
- In-app purchases and subscription management (RevenueCat, Apple)
- Backend infrastructure (Cloudflare Workers)
- Authentication (Apple Sign In)
These services process data only as required to provide their functionality and in accordance with their own privacy policies.
We do not sell user data or share it with advertisers or data brokers.
7. Payments
All purchases are handled securely through Apple In-App Purchases.
- We never receive or store your credit card or billing information
- Purchase history is managed by Apple and RevenueCat
- Token balances are tracked anonymously by device identifier
8. Children's Privacy
Cortx AI is not specifically directed at children under the age of 13.
- The app does not knowingly collect personal data from children
- Audio processing is subject to content policy restrictions
- Parents should supervise children's use of AI features
9. Data Retention
- Audio recordings are processed in real-time and not permanently stored on our servers
- Transcripts and summaries are stored locally on your device
- Usage and diagnostic data are retained only as long as necessary for app improvement
- Token balances and purchase history are retained for service continuity
- Deleting the app removes all locally stored data
10. Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Delete any notes, transcripts, or recordings at any time
- Delete all app data by uninstalling the app
- Request information about data associated with your device
- Sign out and disassociate your Apple ID from the app
- Contact us with privacy concerns or questions
To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected]
11. Security
We use encrypted connections (HTTPS) and HMAC-SHA256 signature verification for all API calls. Audio is transmitted through secure, authenticated channels. Device-level authentication ensures only your device can access your notes and token balance.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
