Privacy Policy

Back That App Up! keeps a rolling memory-only buffer of ambient sound while armed. Nothing is written to storage until a sound spike or a tap triggers a save. Saved clips (Moments) are stored on your device by default. If you enable optional Google Drive backup, your saved clips are uploaded to a Google Drive folder that you own and control.

The app does not record phone calls and is not designed to capture conversations without consent. You are responsible for complying with all applicable recording and consent laws in your jurisdiction.

When you save a Moment, the app may generate a text transcript using server-side speech recognition so you can search your library by keyword. The audio is processed for transcription and the resulting text is stored with the Moment record associated with your account.

If you create an account, we store your email address and a display name. Authentication is handled by our platform provider. We do not collect passwords directly — sign-in is handled through secure, hashed credentials or third-party providers (such as Google).

We collect anonymous, aggregate usage analytics (such as app opens, detector arms, and clips saved) to understand feature adoption and improve the product. These events are not linked to the content of your audio recordings and do not include personally identifiable audio data.

• We do not sell your audio recordings or transcripts.
• We do not use your recordings to train AI models.
• We do not share your data with advertisers.
• We do not track your location or contacts.

Cloud backup is optional and off by default. When enabled, the app connects to your Google Drive using thedrive.filescope, which grants access only to files the app itself creates — not your entire Drive. Your clips are uploaded to a folder named "Back That App Up!" that you can view, manage, or delete at any time from your Google Drive.

Temporary (un-saved) captures are held in memory only and are discarded when you close the app. Saved Moments remain on your device and in your account until you delete them. Deleted Moments are removed from our database and cannot be recovered.

You can delete individual Moments at any time from the Moments screen. To delete all of your data and close your account, use Delete Account in Settings — this permanently removes all of your saved Moments and signs you out. You may also request deletion by contacting us at contact@syncloudconnect.com.

Audio uploaded for transcription and Drive backup is transmitted over encrypted (HTTPS) connections. Account credentials are hashed and managed by our authentication provider. No method of transmission or storage is fully secure, but we apply industry-standard safeguards to protect your data.

The app is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, contact us and we will delete it.

Audio recording may be subject to federal, state, or local consent laws. You are responsible for obtaining any required consent before recording others. The app includes a visible status indicator while armed and does not operate covertly in jurisdictions that require two-party consent.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will revise the "Last updated" date above when we do. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
