Privacy Policy
Last updated : November 3, 2026
The Ora Voice engine runs 100% on your device. Your dictations, transcriptions, translations and notes never pass through our servers.
Ora Voice is a voice dictation app for Mac and iPhone published by Forever FUSE LLC ("we", "us"). This policy explains what data Ora Voice and oravoice.app collect, why, where it is processed, and the choices you have.
Only the account, subscription, personal dictionary and usage data described below reach our providers. At your request, AI Services open a third-party service in your browser with the text you choose to share (section 4).
1. Who is responsible
Forever FUSE LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company, is the controller of the personal data described in this policy. Contact: support@oravoice.app.
2. Data processed on your device only
- Audio of your dictations: audio is transcribed on your device and never sent to us. Recordings are kept on your device so you can replay or re-transcribe a dictation; you can delete them from the app history.
- Dictation history, transcriptions, translations and notes, stored locally without synchronization of these contents with your account.
- Screen context (optional "Deep Context" feature, off unless you enable it and grant macOS Screen Recording permission): visible text is read on your Mac with Apple Vision to improve the accuracy of the current dictation. Screenshots are not stored or sent to us.
- Calendar data (optional, see section 5).
3. Data we collect and store
- Account data: email address and, if you provide them, name and profile picture.
- Personal dictionary: the word heard, the word written and the source app for entries you add or validate, synchronized with your account so they follow you across devices.
- Usage data: numbers of words and dictations, never their text, activity dates and app version, used for your statistics, your subscription limits and to improve the service.
- Subscription data: plan and status. Payments are handled by Paddle.com, our online reseller and Merchant of Record, which receives your payment details and billing information; we never receive your full card number.
- Support messages and feedback you send us.
- Older online history: Ora Voice only reads and imports dictations saved online by earlier versions. You can delete this history. New dictations and notes stay on your device and are not synchronized with your account.
4. The Ora Voice engine, 100% on your device
Ora Voice transcribes, corrects, translates and creates notes on your device. No dictation audio, transcription, translation or note is sent to our servers or to an AI provider.
At your request, “AI Services” commands (such as “ask ChatGPT…”, Perplexity, Claude or Gemini) open that service in your browser with your dictated text. The text you choose to share is then subject to that service’s privacy policy.
5. Google Calendar and other calendars (optional)
You can connect a calendar to see your next meeting and to improve the transcription of names of meeting participants. Connection is optional and can be removed at any time.
For Google accounts, Ora Voice requests read-only access to your calendar events (https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.events.readonly) and to the list of your calendars (https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.calendarlist.readonly). Ora Voice reads events of the next 24 hours from the calendars you select. It never creates, modifies or deletes events.
Calendar data is processed on your Mac only and kept in a temporary in-memory cache. It is never sent to our servers, never sold, never shared with third parties, never used for advertising, and never used to train or improve AI models. Authorization tokens are encrypted on your Mac with the macOS keychain.
You can disconnect a calendar in Ora Voice settings, which stops reading and clears its data from the cache. You can also revoke access at https://myaccount.google.com/connections.
Ora Voice's use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy (https://developers.google.com/terms/api-services-user-data-policy), including the Limited Use requirements.
6. How we use data
- Provide the app and its features, and synchronize your account across devices.
- Manage your subscription, limits and payments.
- Answer your support requests and send important service messages.
- Improve the service using aggregated usage data.
We do not sell personal data and do not use it for advertising.
7. Service providers
We rely on providers that process data on our behalf: cloud database and authentication hosting (Supabase), payment, invoicing and taxes (Paddle.com, Merchant of Record for all our orders, which processes your payment data as an independent controller), transactional email (Resend), website hosting (Vercel), site and app analytics (PostHog, Anamata Data). Each receives only what it needs for its task.
8. Retention and deletion
Account data is kept while your account is active. You can ask us to delete your account and associated data at any time by writing to us; we delete it within 30 days, except what we must keep for legal or accounting obligations. Data stored on your device stays under your control and is removed when you delete it in the app or uninstall Ora Voice.
9. Security
Data is transmitted over encrypted connections. Access to our databases is restricted by row-level security, and secrets are stored in the macOS keychain on your Mac.
10. Your rights
Depending on where you live (including under the GDPR and US state laws), you can access, correct, delete or export your data, and object to or restrict its processing. Write to support@oravoice.app; we answer within 30 days. You can also complain to your data protection authority.
11. Children
Ora Voice is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data.
12. Website and cookies
A creator referral code received through a link is stored on your device for 60 days and sent at checkout to attribute the sale to the creator, including if you refuse audience measurement.
oravoice.app uses cookies required for the site to work and measurement cookies (PostHog, Anamata Data) to understand which pages and channels bring visitors and sign-ups. No advertising cookies. None of this concerns your voice or your dictations: they stay on your device.
13. Changes
We will post any change on this page with a new date. If a change significantly affects how we use your data, we will inform you in the app or by email.
