Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how EasyCaptions collects, uses, discloses, and protects information when you use our website, editor, and related services.
We keep this policy practical and product-focused. It covers the information we collect, how we use it to run the service, and the choices you have about your data.
Information We Collect
We collect information you provide directly, such as your name, email address, account credentials, subscription details, and support messages.
When you upload media for transcription or export, we process the file, project metadata, and subtitle content you create or edit in the app.
- Account and authentication data
- Uploaded video or audio files and generated subtitle assets
- Billing and subscription records through our payment provider
- Device, browser, and log data used for security, diagnostics, and service reliability
How We Use Information
We use information to create and secure accounts, provide transcription and subtitle editing features, process payments, deliver exports, and communicate with you about the service.
We also use data to maintain and improve product performance, detect abuse, troubleshoot issues, and comply with legal obligations.
Uploaded Media and Retention
Uploaded media is processed to generate subtitles and exports. We retain uploaded files only for as long as needed to complete the request, provide the result, or support temporary retry and recovery flows.
Generated outputs and project data may remain in your account until you remove them or until they expire under the applicable retention policy.
Sharing and Third Parties
We may share limited information with service providers that help us run EasyCaptions, such as hosting, storage, analytics, logging, email delivery, and payment processing partners.
Payments are processed by Stripe. Transcription and translation requests may be processed by third-party AI providers depending on the feature you use.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, protect the service, remember preferences, and understand how the site is used.
Your Choices
You can update certain account details in the app and may request access, correction, or deletion of your data where required by law.
You can also contact us if you want help removing uploaded media or other project data that is still stored in your account.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information, but no online service can guarantee perfect security.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will post the revised version here and update the date above.
