Privacy Policy
Effective date: 16 July 2026 · App: Parrot Voice Notes (Android) · Provider: Shunyank Technologies · Contact: support@parrotvn.com
This Privacy Policy explains what information Parrot Voice Notes ("the App") collects, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have. By using the App you agree to this policy.
1. Summary
- The App works offline by default. Your recordings and notes stay on your device unless you sign in to enable cloud backup.
- To transcribe audio and generate AI notes, your audio and text are sent to third-party processing services (Section 4).
- If you sign in with Google, your notes and audio are backed up to our cloud so you can restore them and use other devices.
- We use analytics and crash reporting to improve the App.
- You can delete your account and all cloud data at any time (Section 9).

11. Security
We use industry-standard measures (encrypted connections, access controls, per-user data isolation). No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.
12. Changes
We may update this policy and will post the new effective date here.
