5. DO WE OFFER ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE-BASED PRODUCTS?
In Short: Yes. Notoo uses third-party AI services (OpenAI) to generate summaries, flashcards, quizzes, and chat responses from your recordings. We disclose exactly what data is sent, to whom, and obtain your consent before any AI features can be used.
Our AI Products
Notoo offers the following AI-powered features:
- Text summarization of voice recordings and YouTube transcripts
- Flashcard generation from your notes
- Quiz generation from your notes
- Conversational chat about your notes ("Chat with Notoo")
Voice-to-text transcription is performed on-device using Apple's Speech Recognition framework and is not sent to any third-party AI service.
Third-Party AI Service Provider
Notoo's AI features are powered by OpenAI, L.L.C. (United States). Data sent to OpenAI is governed by OpenAI's API Data Usage Policies, available at https://openai.com/policies/api-data-usage-policies. Per these policies, OpenAI does not use API data submitted by Notoo to train or improve their models.
What Data Is Sent to OpenAI
When you use an AI feature, the following data is sent to OpenAI:
- The transcribed text of your voice recording (text only — never audio)
- The transcript of a YouTube video, if you submit a YouTube URL
- Your chat messages when using the "Chat with Notoo" feature
What Data Is NOT Sent
- Audio recordings (stored only on your device)
- Your name, email, phone number, or any identifying account info (Notoo has no user accounts)
- Your device identifier or IP address
- Location data
- Contacts, photos, or any data outside of what you explicitly record or paste in
Your Consent
When you first launch Notoo, we present an "AI Processing" screen during onboarding that explains this data sharing and requires your explicit acknowledgment before any AI features can be used. You may decline at any time by not using AI features — voice recording and on-device transcription will continue to work without sending any data to OpenAI.
Other Third-Party Services
Notoo also uses the following third parties for non-AI functionality:
- Supadata (YouTube transcript provider) — receives YouTube URLs you submit in order to fetch publicly available video transcripts. See https://supadata.ai/privacy.
- RevenueCat (subscription management) — receives anonymous purchase events tied to a randomly generated user identifier. See https://www.revenuecat.com/privacy.
- Apple App Attest — used to verify requests come from genuine Notoo installations. No personal data is shared.
6. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?
In Short: We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Notice unless otherwise required by law.
We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements).
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
7. WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS?
In Short: Depending on your state of residence in the US or in some regions, such as the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), Switzerland, and Canada, you have rights that allow you greater access to and control over your personal information. You may review, change, or terminate your account at any time, depending on your country, province, or state of residence.
In some regions (like the EEA, UK, Switzerland, and Canada), you have certain rights under applicable data protection laws. These may include the right (i) to request access and obtain a copy of your personal information, (ii) to request rectification or erasure; (iii) to restrict the processing of your personal information; (iv) if applicable, to data portability; and (v) not to be subject to automated decision-making. In certain circumstances, you may also have the right to object to the processing of your personal information.

8. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track ("DNT") feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online.
