Privacy Policy
Last updated: 27 September 2026
MeetRecap records in-person meetings, turns speech into text on your phone, and writes AI summaries. It is made by Rahul Sharma, an individual developer in India ("I", "me"). This policy explains what happens to your data. Contact: rprrahul18@gmail.com.
The short version
- Your recordings never leave your phone. Speech is turned into text on the phone itself.
- Only the text of a meeting is sent, and only when you ask for a summary or a translation. It is used to write that summary and is not stored on my server.
- No sign-up, no name, no email. The app makes an anonymous account by itself.
- No ads, no tracking, no selling of data.
- You can delete everything in Settings → Delete all my data.
What stays on your phone
Recordings, transcripts, summaries, meeting names, the people you add and their voice profiles (a set of numbers describing how someone sounds, used to recognise who is speaking) are stored only in MeetRecap's own storage on your phone. They stay there until you delete the meeting, the person, or all your data, or delete the app.
What is sent, and why
| What | When | To whom | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| The meeting's text (transcript), its name, type, date and the names of people in it | When a summary is written | My summary server (Google Cloud), which passes it to Anthropic (Claude) | To write the summary. Not stored by my server. |
| Transcript lines, or a summary | When you ask for a translation | My summary server, then Anthropic | To translate them. Not stored by my server. |
| An anonymous account ID | With every request | Google Firebase | To know how many free summaries you've used and whether you have Pro. |
| A scrambled code for your phone | With every request | My summary server | So that reinstalling the app doesn't reset the free summary. Only a one-way hash is kept, never the code. |
| Purchases (what you bought, when) | When you buy Pro or summaries | Apple or Google, and RevenueCat | To take payment and unlock what you bought. I never see card or bank details. |
| Download requests for speech models | When the app is first set up | Hugging Face | To download the speech-to-text models. Like any website, they see your IP address. |
What my server keeps
- A monthly usage count per account and per phone code: which meetings (by a random ID) were summarised, how many minutes, and what the AI calls cost. No words from your meetings. It is deleted automatically shortly after the month ends.
- Summary pack purchases: how many you bought and used. These are payment records.
- Server logs: account ID, meeting length and timing, for up to 30 days, to fix problems. No meeting text.
Anthropic (Claude)
Summaries and translations are written by Anthropic's Claude AI through Anthropic's paid API. Under Anthropic's commercial terms, data sent through the API is not used to train its models. Anthropic may keep it for a limited time for safety and legal reasons, and then deletes it. See Anthropic's privacy policy.
Other services I use
- Google Firebase and Google Cloud: anonymous accounts, usage counts, and the summary server.
- RevenueCat: keeps track of purchases for Apple and Google.
- Apple App Store and Google Play: downloads and payments, under their own privacy policies.
Recording other people
Laws in many places require the consent of everyone being recorded. Please tell people you are recording, and get their agreement, before you start.
Deleting your data
In the app: Settings → Delete all my data. This deletes every meeting, recording, person and setting on your phone, and your anonymous account and its usage record on my server. Two things are kept: the current month's count for your phone code (so deleting can't reset the free summary; it deletes itself after the month ends) and pack purchase records (payment records). A Pro subscription is not cancelled by this: cancel it in your App Store or Google Play subscriptions. You can also email me to ask for deletion.
Children
MeetRecap is not meant for children under 13 and does not knowingly collect data from them.
Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, or the GDPR in Europe), you may have the right to see, correct or delete your data, and to complain to a regulator. Since almost everything stays on your phone, you can see and delete it yourself in the app. For anything else, email me.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted here with a new date.
