What we collect

- Transcripts — text generated from your files, including timestamps and speaker labels when enabled.
- Account information — if you sign in: email address and profile name from Google or your login provider.
- Usage data — daily upload counts and file metadata (size, duration, language) to enforce plan limits.
- Technical logs — basic server logs (IP address, browser type, error reports) for security and reliability.
