Privacy Policy

Utter is designed with privacy as the foundation. Your tasks, thoughts, and voice stay on your iPhone. No personal information is collected, stored, accessed, or sold.

This isn't marketing — it's how Utter is architecturally designed.

• ✕No user accounts or registration
• ✕No tasks or lists sent to any servers
• ✕No voice recordings sent to any servers
• ✕No usage analytics or tracking
• ✕No advertising identifiers
• ✕No location data
• ✕No contact information
• ✕No third-party SDKs

Utter has achieved Apple's "Data Not Collected" privacy label because Utter genuinely does not collect, transmit, or process any of your information.

Utter uses your iPhone's microphone and Apple's Speech framework to convert your voice into tasks. This is done entirely on your device — Utter is configured to require on-device recognition.

• Voice audio is never recorded or saved
• Voice audio is never sent to any server (Apple's or anyone else's)
• Speech-to-text conversion happens locally, using Apple's on-device models
• Your voice is never heard, seen, or received in any form

Utter is not AI-powered. Task categorisation uses simple rule-based keyword matching that runs entirely on your device.

The first time you tap the orb or mic button, iOS will ask for permission to access:

You can revoke these permissions at any time in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security. Utter will still work for typed input without these permissions.

All your Utter data is stored locally on your iPhone using Apple's secure storage:

• Task titles, completion states, and categories (My List, Grocery)
• Brain Dump thoughts and saved sessions
• List snapshots / history
• Settings (voice choice, sounds, transitions, etc.)
• Trial start date and purchase status

Your data never leaves your device unless you explicitly share it using the iOS share sheet or enable iCloud backup.

Utter supports optional iCloud backup through iOS. If you enable iCloud backup for Utter, your data will be stored in your personal iCloud account.

Utter offers three paid tiers after a 7-day free trial:

All payments are processed by Apple through the App Store. Apple handles the transaction, billing, and your payment information — payment details are never seen by the developer.

Utter does not integrate with:

• ✕Analytics services (Google Analytics, Firebase, Mixpanel, etc.)
• ✕Advertising networks
• ✕Social media platforms
• ✕Cloud hosting services
• ✕Any third-party data processors
• ✕Any AI or large language model services

There are no third-party SDKs in Utter that could collect data.

Under UK GDPR, you have rights including access, correction, deletion, and data portability.

Since you already have complete control of your data on your device, you can exercise these rights directly — open Utter to access or edit, remove items to delete, or use the share sheet to export. You don't need to contact anyone to exercise these rights.

This privacy policy may be updated to reflect changes in app functionality, legal requirements, or to add clarifications. The core commitment to not collecting your data will never change.

Updated policies will be posted at this URL. The "Effective Date" at the top shows when changes were made.

Utter complies with:

• UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR)
• Data Protection Act 2018
• Apple App Store Review Guidelines
• Apple's Privacy Nutrition Label requirements
