Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

This Privacy Policy explains how 617SW, LLC("617SW," "we," "us," or "our") handles information in connection with SpiritBox (the "App"), an entertainment audio app for iPhone and Android.

2. Summary

SpiritBox is designed as a local-first entertainment experience. Session logs, saved responses, favorites, and app preferences are stored on your device unless you choose to export, share, or otherwise send them elsewhere. The App also uses limited third party services for speech recognition and subscription status, as described below.

3. Information the App Processes

• Spoken questions captured through the microphone and transcriptions returned by your device's speech-recognition service. Depending on your device and service settings, that service may process voice audio remotely to provide the transcription;
• Generated static, synthesized voice fragments, timestamps, and session notes;
• Saved session entries and favorite status stored locally on your device;
• Magnetic-field readings and other device sensor values used for atmospheric effects.

SpiritBox does not operate an account system, and we do not receive your session content or microphone audio through our own servers.

4. Device Permissions

The App may request microphone access when you choose to capture a spoken question, speech-recognition access to transcribe that question, and magnetic-field sensor access for atmospheric tools. You can manage permissions in your device settings.

5. Sharing and Third-Party Services

Your device's speech-recognition provider may process microphone audio to return a transcription when you use the optional Open Mic feature. We use RevenueCat to verify subscription access; RevenueCat processes purchase history and related transaction status for that purpose. If you export, share, message, email, save, or open information from the App in another app or service, that action is controlled by you and may be handled by the selected third party. Apple and Google may also process store downloads, updates, billing, and related platform information under their own policies.

6. Support Communications

If you contact us for support, we may receive your email address, message contents, screenshots, diagnostics, and any information you choose to include. Please avoid sending sensitive audio, location, or personal information unless it is necessary for support.

7. Data Retention and Deletion

Local app data remains on your device until you delete it in the App where available, remove saved items, or uninstall the App. To request deletion of subscription data held by our service provider, use our contact form. Support messages may be retained as needed to respond to requests, maintain business records, and comply with legal obligations.

8. Children's Privacy

SpiritBox is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

9. Entertainment Use and Your Choices

SpiritBox is for entertainment, experimentation, and atmosphere. You are responsible for deciding what to record, save, delete, export, or share, and for using the App only where you are legally allowed to be.

10. Changes and Contact

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the effective date above. Questions can be sent through our contact form.
