Privacy Policy
Studio154 ("we", "us") makes the ScanWyse app and website. ScanWyse helps you understand documents written in English by translating and summarizing them in your language and reading them aloud. This policy explains what happens to your information. Contact: contact@studio154.net.
What you send us
When you scan a document or choose a photo, the image is sent over an encrypted connection to our server, which passes it to Anthropic's Claude API to read, translate and summarize it. The text of the result (and, when you tap Listen, the text to be read aloud) is sent to our text-to-speech server so it can produce audio.
- We do not save your photos or documents. Images and text are processed to produce your result and are not stored on our servers.
- Our server logs contain only technical data (for example, how many tokens a request used). They never contain the content of your documents or the results.
- Your IP address is used briefly to limit abuse (rate limiting). It is not stored with your documents.
What stays on your phone or browser
Your scan history (the translated results) and your chosen language are stored only on your phone, or in your browser if you use the website. You can delete all saved scans at any time in Settings. Deleting the app removes them as well.
Subscriptions and payments
ScanWyse is a subscription with a free trial. On iPhone and Android, purchases are handled by Apple or Google, and on the website by Stripe. We never see or store your card number. If you subscribe on the website, Stripe gives us your email address and a subscription status so we can recognize your subscription. We do not sell this information.
Service providers
We use these providers to run the service. They process data only to provide it:
- Anthropic (Claude API): reads, translates and summarizes your document.
- Cloudflare: hosts our server and handles request routing.
- Fly.io: hosts our text-to-speech server.
- Stripe (website subscriptions), and the Apple App Store and Google Play (app subscriptions): handle payments.
We do not sell your information, use it for advertising, or track you across other apps or websites. The app contains no advertising or analytics SDKs.
Permissions
- Camera: to scan documents. Photos are not saved to your photo library.
- Photo library: optional. When you choose a photo to upload, only that photo is shared with the app.
Sensitive documents
Documents may contain personal information such as names, addresses, or medical or financial details. We process them only to give you your translation. Please avoid scanning documents you are not comfortable sending to the services listed above.
Not professional advice
ScanWyse provides machine translation and summaries that may contain mistakes. It is not legal, medical or financial advice. For anything important, check with the sender of the document or a qualified professional.
Children
ScanWyse is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect information from them.
Your choices
Because we do not keep your documents or build a profile of you, there is generally nothing for us to delete or export. For questions or requests about subscription data, contact us at contact@studio154.net.
Changes
If we change this policy we will update the date above and, for significant changes, notify you in the app.
