Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 2026
1. Who we are
Scribossauro is a desktop application developed in Brazil to record, transcribe, and summarize meetings and audio calls. This Privacy Policy describes how we handle (or deliberately do not handle) your personal data. Questions can be sent to [email protected].
2. Privacy by default
Scribossauro was designed with privacy as the default: the raw audio from your recordings never leaves your device. Transcription processing occurs locally, without being sent to external servers.
Only on paid plans — and only when you explicitly enable features such as cloud sync or the AI assistant — is transcription data transmitted in encrypted form to the services described in this policy.
3. Data we collect
Depending on how you use Scribossauro, we may collect:
- Account data — name and email provided during registration, needed for authentication and support.
- Usage data — number of transcription minutes consumed, for plan quota control.
- Transcriptions (optional) — only if you enable cloud sync; stored in encrypted form.
- Payment data — processed directly by the payment gateway; Scribossauro does not store card data.
- Technical logs — app version and error type (no audio or transcription data), used for failure diagnosis.
We do not collect raw audio, video, email content, browsing history, or any data not listed above.
4. How we use your data
- Authenticate your account and control access to your plan.
- Process payments and issue receipts.
- Sync transcriptions across devices, when enabled by you.
- Power the AI assistant on the T-Rex plan, when activated by you.
- Diagnose technical failures based on anonymized logs.
- Send service communications (updates, quota alerts, receipts).
5. Data sharing
We do not sell or rent your data. We share information only with essential service providers subject to confidentiality agreements:
- Payment gateway — for subscription processing.
- Cloud provider — for encrypted storage of transcriptions (only if sync is enabled).
- AI service — transcription text sent to the language model only during AI assistant sessions (T-Rex plan).
We may disclose data when required by law or court order, within the limits established by applicable legislation.
6. Storage and security
Recordings and transcriptions are saved locally on your device by default. When cloud sync is active, data is transmitted via HTTPS and stored with encryption at rest (AES-256).
We employ state-of-the-art security practices: short-lived token authentication, least-privilege principle, and periodic access audits. No system is 100% invulnerable; in case of an incident affecting your data, we will notify you within the legally required timeframe.
7. Data retention
- Account data — retained while your account is active. Deleted within 30 days of a deletion request.
- Cloud transcriptions — deleted within 30 days after subscription cancellation or deletion request.
- Technical logs — retained for up to 90 days, then automatically discarded.
- Payment data — retained for the accounting period required by law (5 years).
8. Your rights
Under applicable data protection law, you have the right to:
- Confirm whether we process your data and access it.
- Correct incomplete, inaccurate, or outdated data.
- Request anonymization, blocking, or deletion of unnecessary data.
- Request portability of your data to another service.
- Withdraw consent at any time, without prejudice to prior processing.
- Object to processing carried out without your agreement.
To exercise any of these rights, send a request to [email protected]. We will respond within 15 business days.
9. Cookies and tracking
The Scribossauro website uses only essential technical cookies for operation (authenticated session). We do not use third-party tracking cookies, ad pixels, or behavioral analytics tools without your permission.
10. Account deletion request
If you want to request account deletion, use our dedicated page. The form itself does not delete the account immediately: we send a confirmation email with a link valid for 15 minutes, and deletion only happens after that link is opened.
11. Minors
Scribossauro is not intended for users under 18 years of age and does not intentionally collect data from children or adolescents. If we identify that data from a minor was provided without parental consent, we will delete that information immediately.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Relevant changes will be communicated by email or by notice within the app itself at least 15 days in advance. The date of the last revision will always appear at the top of this page.
