Privacy Policy

1. General Information

This Privacy Policy applies to the ThinkPool mobile application and website, operated by Roman Koch (referred to as "we," "us," or "our"). The application serves as a voice-to-text productivity tool that helps users organize their thoughts and tasks.

2. Data Collection and Processing

We value your privacy and are committed to transparency regarding data collection.

2.1. Voice Recordings and Transcriptions

The primary function of ThinkPool is to process voice recordings and convert them into organized notes, tasks, and shopping lists. Your voice recordings are processed locally on your device when possible, and any cloud processing is done securely with industry-standard encryption.

2.2. Google Analytics

To improve user experience and analyze app usage, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC. Google Analytics may collect anonymized data such as:

• App usage patterns and features accessed
• Time spent using the application
• Device and operating system information
• General geographic location (based on IP address)

This data helps us understand user behavior and improve the application. The data is collected in an anonymized way and cannot be linked to individual users. Google Analytics operates under Google's Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We do not use cookies or tracking technologies apart from Google Analytics. No personal data is stored or retrieved from your device without your explicit consent.

4. Third-Party Services and Data Sharing

We do not share any user data with third parties without your explicit consent. The only external services used are Google Analytics (for anonymized usage statistics) and cloud processing services for voice transcription (when local processing is not available). All data transmission is encrypted and secure.

5. Legal Basis for Data Processing (GDPR Compliance)

Voice recordings and transcriptions are processed based on your explicit consent when using the application. Any data collected via Google Analytics is anonymized and used solely for application performance improvements. We comply with Article 6 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

6. Hosting and Security

Our application and website are hosted using secure cloud services that adhere to GDPR standards. All voice recordings and personal data are encrypted both in transit and at rest. We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

7. User Rights (GDPR)

You have the right to:

• Access your personal data and voice recordings
• Correct inaccurate information
• Delete your account and all associated data
• Export your data in a portable format
• Withdraw consent for data processing at any time
• Object to processing of your personal data
