La version source en chinois simplifié est la version officielle. En cas d'écart, la source prévaut.

Voice-over scripts, course scripts, speech scripts, livestream scripts, Vlog scripts, and other text content
Nicknames, feedback, contact information, or problem descriptions you provide
Images, videos, documents, or other files you actively upload or import.

By default, this content is used to provide you with teleprompting, layout, preview, save, export, or related functionality.

3.3 Device and Usage Information

To ensure service availability, we may collect or receive the following information:

Device model, system version, language, timezone, app version number
Operation logs, crash logs, performance diagnostic information
Feature usage records, such as whether you enable voice following, mirror mode, full-screen mode, font settings, etc
Basic network access records when visiting the website or online trial page, such as page visits, referring pages, timestamps.

3.4 Voice-Related Information

When you use voice following or related voice teleprompting features, the app may request microphone permission and invoke system speech recognition capabilities.

We will clearly inform you of the permission's purpose and enable it only after your consent. Voice input is primarily used for teleprompter following, pace control, and highlight positioning.

3.5 Payment and Subscription Information

If you purchase subscriptions or one-time purchases through the App Store, the payment process is handled by Apple. We generally do not have access to your bank card number, complete billing information, or payment password.

We may receive result information related to purchase status, such as whether a subscription is active, current plan type, and receipt verification status, for the purpose of identifying your usage entitlements.

3.6 Analytics and Improvement Information

If product analytics, crash analytics, or anonymous statistics are enabled, we may process anonymized or de-identified data for:

Determining whether features are functioning properly
Discovering crashes and performance issues
Identifying commonly used pages and key conversion paths
Improving website content and teleprompter experience.

We do not sell your script text, voice input, purchase status, or diagnostic information to any third party, nor use it for ad targeting or cross-app tracking unrelated to product functionality.

4. How We Use This Information

We use information only within the following purposes:

Providing teleprompter, online trial, mirror mode, full-screen teleprompting, voice following, and other features
Saving your display settings, subtitle styles, font size, color, spacing, and scroll configuration
Processing purchases, subscriptions, restore purchases, and entitlement verification
Improving stability, performance, usability, and content presentation
Conducting security protection, abuse detection, and troubleshooting
Responding to your customer support, feedback, or rights requests
Complying with applicable laws and regulations, App Store rules, or regulatory authority requirements.

5. Permission Descriptions

We may request your separate authorization before using the following permissions:

Microphone: Used for voice following, voice teleprompting, reading recognition, or related audio input
Camera: Used for features related to recording, preview, or associated recording workflows (when enabled by you)
Photos/Files: Used for importing or exporting documents, media, or screenshots
Network: Used for online trial, purchase verification, cloud sync, or website access.

You can revoke permissions in system settings at any time, but after revocation, related features may not function properly.

6. Information Sharing, Delegated Processing, and Third Parties

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share or delegate processing of information only in the following scenarios:

Apple: For App Store distribution, purchases, subscriptions, and system capability invocation
Cloud Service Providers: If you actively enable cloud sync, backup, or online storage
Analytics/Crash Analytics Services: For anonymous statistics and stability improvement
Legal Requirements: As required by government authorities, judicial bodies, or mandatory legal requirements.

If new third-party SDKs or services are added in the future, we will update this policy and, where possible, provide advance notice of their purpose, scope, and privacy impact.

7. Default Local Processing and Storage

We prioritize local processing mode.

This typically means:

Your script content is saved locally on your device by default
Font, color, spacing, scroll speed, and other settings are saved locally
The online trial page may use browser local storage to save temporary content
Only when you explicitly enable cloud sync, sharing, export, or related online capabilities will data enter network transmission or server processing workflows.

8. Data Retention Period

We retain information only for the period necessary to provide the service.

General principles are as follows:

Local settings and scripts: Retained until you delete, clear cache, uninstall the app, or proactively reset
Logs and diagnostic information: Retained only for the reasonable period needed for troubleshooting, performance analysis, and security audits, after which they are deleted or anonymized
Purchase status and subscription credentials: Retained for the period required by compliance and accounting needs
Cloud sync data: Saved or deleted based on your account status, service settings, and your proactive actions
Feedback and customer support records: Retained until issue resolution and for a necessary subsequent support period.

If retention periods differ across features, we will endeavor to specify them separately.

9. Your Rights and Deletion Requests

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you may:

Access information we hold about you
Correct inaccurate information
Delete your local data or cloud data
Withdraw authorization and consent
Delete your account (if an account system is supported in the future)
Obtain explanations about processing rules.

If you wish to delete data, disable cloud sync, withdraw authorization, or request deletion of feedback records, you can contact us through in-app entry points, website pages, or our contact email.

We will respond to your requests within a reasonable period and complete processing within the scope permitted by laws and regulations.

This service is intended for users with full civil capacity or those using it under guardian supervision.

If you believe a child has provided personal information without guardian consent, please contact us immediately. We will take deletion, restriction, or other necessary measures in accordance with applicable law.

11. Cross-Border Transfer

If your information needs to be transferred or stored across borders, we will provide necessary notice as required by law and take reasonable protective measures.

Applicable legal and regulatory requirements may differ for users in different regions. We will endeavor to process data in a transparent, minimized, and revocable manner.

12. Security Measures

We take reasonable technical and administrative measures to protect your information, such as:

Least-privilege access control
Encrypted transmission (where applicable)
Log and anomaly monitoring
Supply chain and third-party dependency review
Access auditing and permission management.
