This Privacy Policy (hereinafter referred to as "this Policy") informs you (hereinafter referred to as "the User") about how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal information, as well as your rights regarding such information. By downloading this application through the Apple App Store and granting necessary permissions (e.g., microphone, storage), you are deemed to have fully read, thoroughly understood, and voluntarily accepted all terms of this Policy. If you disagree with any part of this Policy, please immediately cease using this application.

Scope of Application

This Policy applies solely to information collected by this application through device functions (microphone, storage, network) and does not apply to the following scenarios:
Information collected in offline scenarios;
Information collected by third-party services (third parties operate under their own privacy policies; specific service providers and rules are listed in the attached "SDK List"; we assume no responsibility).
When accessing third-party services through this application, you must review the relevant third-party privacy policies independently. Any associated risks shall be borne solely by you.

Basic Principles for Personal Information Processing

We strictly adhere to the following principles when processing your personal information to ensure lawful and compliant data handling:

Legality Principle: All information collection and use comply with the Personal Information Protection Law of the People's Republic of China and other applicable laws and regulations, without evading statutory responsibilities.
Legitimate Purpose Principle: Information processing purposes are genuine and explicit, and we do not obtain your authorization through fraudulent or misleading means;
Necessity Principle: We collect only the minimum information necessary to fulfill the core functions of this application and do not collect data unrelated to such functions;
Principle of Integrity: We truthfully disclose information processing rules, without concealing data usage or misleading your understanding of data security;
Security Principle: Industry-standard security measures are implemented to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or alteration.

Scope of Information Collection and Permissions

We collect only the information necessary to fulfill this application's functions. All collection activities are based on explicit notification and your active authorization, as detailed below:

Information Related to Core Functions

Recording and AI Processing Information: To enable recording, AI recognition, and translation features, we require your authorization for corresponding permissions and collect the following information:

Microphone Permission: Used to capture audio signals, providing raw material for AI speech recognition and real-time translation. Audio data is collected only temporarily when you initiate recording and is not accessed in the background when recording is inactive.
Storage Permission: Used to save recording files and AI translation results to your device storage. We do not batch-scan or store other files on your device.
Network Permission: Enables AI translation's online functionality and software security updates. Disabling this will prevent network-dependent features, but basic recording functionality remains operational.

2. Feedback and Support Information: When submitting issues via email, you may voluntarily provide details such as device model, system version, problem description, and relevant screenshots. This information is solely used to address your request and is not linked to other data.

Automatically Collected Non-Identifiable Information

During your use of this application, we automatically collect the following anonymized data for feature adaptation and troubleshooting. This data does not include sensitive personal information:
