Privacy Policy

Summary for Users

What We Collect: We only collect what's needed to run the app—your voice input during the session and basic usage data (e.g., session length). No personal info like your name or email unless you give it to us.

Recordings: We don't save your podcast after your session—it's in-memory for you to download, then gone.

How We Use It: Your voice input goes to OpenAI's API to make the AI host work. We might track usage to improve the app, but nothing's tied to you personally.

Sharing: We don't share your data, except with OpenAI to run the service (they don't use it to train models unless we opt in, which we won't).

Your Control: Download your recording during the session; we don't keep it after.

Full Privacy Policy

Effective Date: April 02, 2025

Riff Tech LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates PodHost.ai (the “Service”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use the Service.

Information We Collect

Session Data: During your use of the Service, we collect your voice input and the AI-generated responses to create the podcast recording. This data is held in-memory only and not stored after your session.

Usage Data: We may collect non-identifying data like session duration or error logs to improve the Service.

Voluntary Data: If you contact us (e.g., via email), we'll collect what you provide.

How We Use Your Information

Service Delivery: Your voice input is sent to OpenAI's API to generate the AI host's responses and create the recording, which you can download during your session.

Improvement: Usage data helps us monitor and enhance the Service.

We do not use your data for marketing or profiling.

Data Storage and Retention

Recordings are stored in-memory during your session and deleted when the session ends. We do not retain copies.

Usage data may be kept temporarily in anonymized form for analysis.

Third-Party Sharing

OpenAI: Your voice input is processed by OpenAI's API to operate the Service. OpenAI's policies state they don't use API data for training unless we opt in, which we do not.

We do not share your data with other third parties, except as required by law.

Security

We use reasonable measures to protect in-memory data during your session, but no system is 100% secure. Since we don't store recordings, the risk is limited to active sessions.

Your Rights

You can download your recording during the session. We don't store it afterward, so there's no data to access or delete later.

If you provide voluntary data (e.g., via email), you may request its deletion by contacting us.

Children's Privacy

The Service is not intended for users under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy. Changes take effect when posted, and continued use of the Service means you accept them.
