AlGrano privacy policy
This policy explains what happens to your data when you use the AlGrano iPhone app. The short answer: it stays on your device. The long version follows, including the few cases in which the app connects to anything at all.
1. Who is responsible
Freshlab Iberia S.L.U. · NIF ES B87323754 · Spain · info@freshlab.es. For support questions about the app, write to support@freshlab.es. Full company details are in the imprint.
2. Scope
This policy covers the AlGrano iPhone app and its share extension only. The freshlab.es website is covered by the general privacy policy.
3. What data the app processes
AlGrano collects no personal data about you. All processing of your recordings happens on your iPhone, and no content is transmitted to Freshlab or to any third party:
- The audio file you share with the app is copied into AlGrano's local storage so that it can be processed and so that the result stays available in your history. It is not uploaded anywhere.
- The transcript, the key points, the to-dos, the dates and the reply drafts are created and kept on the device only.
- There is no sign-up, no user account, no email address and no password.
- No analytics SDKs, no advertising, no tracking identifiers, no profiling and no cloud sync are used.
- The app is fully usable in airplane mode.
That is why AlGrano's App Store privacy label names exactly one category, "Purchases", and lists it under "Data Not Linked to You". It is there because the app can take a tip, not because the app knows who you are. Section 7 has the detail.
4. AlGrano does not record
The app has no recording function and never asks for microphone permission, which you can check yourself in iOS settings. Audio arrives in two ways, both started by you: through the iOS share sheet, when you send AlGrano a voice note that already exists in another app, or through importing a file by hand. The share extension only places that file in a shared container and opens the main app; it analyses nothing and sends nothing.
5. The only network connections
AlGrano needs no network connection to do its actual job. There are two exceptions, and neither transmits your recording or anything in it:
- In-app purchases. Apple handles the payment end to end. The receipt Apple issues is also checked by RevenueCat, the provider that does that job for us, which asks after the state of the purchase when the app opens as well. Neither of those carries anything from your recordings. See section 7.
- The list of other Freshlab apps. The app downloads a small text file from
freshlab.escontaining the names and links of our other applications, and caches it. It is a one-way fetch: no information about you or your recordings is sent. As with any request to a web server, the technical server log may hold the IP address and timestamp of the request for a limited period, for security and diagnostics. If the fetch fails, the app carries on as normal.
6. On-device AI and transparency
Transcription and language detection use Apple's speech recognition, configured to run on the device. The summary, the to-dos, the dates and the reply drafts are produced by Apple's Foundation Models framework, that is, the language model built into iOS, running locally on the iPhone. Your recording and its transcript are not sent to OpenAI, not to Freshlab and not to any other AI provider, and they are not used to train any model.
You are interacting with an artificial intelligence system. The transcript, the key points, the to-dos, the dates and the three replies are AI suggestions and may contain errors or omissions; the app labels them as such and keeps the full transcript available so you can check what was said. The replies are drafts that you copy and send from your own messaging app: AlGrano sends nothing on your behalf and is not connected to any messaging service that could skip that step. AlGrano makes no automated decision producing legal effects concerning you within the meaning of Article 22 GDPR. This information is provided in fulfilment of the transparency duty under Article 50 of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 (the AI Act).
7. Purchases
AlGrano is free and has no paid features. You can optionally buy us a coffee, a tapa or a dinner. The payment itself runs end to end through Apple's App Store. Freshlab receives and stores no payment data: we do not know your name, your address or your payment method. Apple provides us only with aggregated sales reports that do not identify individual buyers. Apple's own processing is governed by Apple's privacy policy.
To check that a tip actually went through, the app relies on RevenueCat, a provider acting as a processor on Freshlab's behalf. RevenueCat receives the purchase receipt Apple issues and the transaction data it carries: the product bought, the amount, the storefront country, the timestamps and the state of the purchase. It does not receive your name, your address, your payment method or your Apple ID, and not one second of audio, one line of transcript or one result from the app.
Device and advertising identifiers do not reach it either. The app configures that component with automatic identifier collection switched off and gives it no identifier of our own, so the tip hangs on a random code that means something only inside this app. It is not linked to your identity, it feeds no tracking and no advertising. RevenueCat's privacy policy is on its own site. If that service does not answer, the purchase carries on directly through Apple's StoreKit.
That component asks after the state of your purchases when the app opens, not only when you pay. The question carries nothing of yours: no audio, no transcript, no result, no device identifier. With no connection nothing happens at all, the app works as usual and only the purchase goes unchecked.
8. System permissions
The app asks for iOS permissions only when a feature you started actually needs them:
- Microphone: never requested, because the app does not record.
- Reminders: only if you export a to-do. The entry is created in the Reminders app on your device.
- Calendar: only if you export a date. The entry is created in the device's local calendar and syncs only according to the iCloud settings you already have with Apple.
You can withdraw any of these permissions at any time in iOS settings under AlGrano. The app keeps working, with the corresponding export switched off.
9. Retention and deletion
Your data lives solely in the app's local storage, inside the sandbox iOS assigns to it. Freshlab holds no copy and therefore cannot read it, export it or restore it.
- To delete a single result, swipe it in the list. The result, the transcript and the copy of the audio file go together.
- To delete everything, remove the app from the iPhone. The data goes with it.
- If you have iCloud backup or a computer backup enabled, the app's data may be included in that backup. That copy is yours and is managed through iOS settings or your computer, not through AlGrano.
- The original recording also remains in the app you shared it from, for example in the WhatsApp chat. That is outside AlGrano and is managed there.
10. Transfers to third parties
Of what you share with the app we pass nothing to third parties, because we hold none of it. The one exception is the one in section 7: RevenueCat Inc., a company based in the United States, checks Apple's purchase receipts on our behalf as a processor, and that processing is governed by the data processing agreement that forms part of its terms and by its privacy policy. Beyond that, your use of the app results in no international data transfers on Freshlab's side. The relationship with Apple, as operator of the App Store and of payment processing, is governed by Apple's own terms and privacy policy.
11. Your rights and other people's rights
The General Data Protection Regulation gives you rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection and portability. Because AlGrano sends no personal data to Freshlab, there is nothing on our side to disclose or erase: you exercise control directly on the device by deleting a result or the app. If you would still like to contact us, write to info@freshlab.es. You may also lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in Spain the Agencia Española de Protección de Datos (aepd.es).
Bear in mind that a voice note usually carries another person's voice and details. That processing happens entirely on your device and under your control, within your personal use, just as it does when you keep the message on your phone. If you use the app in a professional context, judging the legal basis for that processing is your call.
12. Children and changes to this policy
AlGrano is intended for adults, does not ask for your age or any other personal detail, and contains no content directed at children. If a future version of the app changes anything material about data handling, we will update this page before releasing that version and change the date at the bottom. The version published at this address is always the one in force.
