Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 13, 2026
BoldEdit (“we”, “our”, or “the app”) turns long videos into short, captioned clips. This policy explains what data the app handles and how. It reflects how the app actually works today.
Core principle: your media stays on your device
Your videos, audio, and the transcripts generated from them are processed entirely on your iPhone. We never upload, store, or transmit your video or audio content to our servers or to any third party. Speech-to-text (transcription) runs fully on-device — your audio is never sent anywhere for processing.
Data processed on your device only (never sent to us)
- Videos and audio you import or record.
- Transcription: on-device speech recognition. Audio never leaves your device to be transcribed.
- Edits, captions, styles, and project files: stored locally on your device.
Deleting the app removes all of this local content.
Settings sync (your own iCloud)
A few small preferences — your caption language and default style — may sync across your devices through your personal iCloud account (Apple’s iCloud key-value storage). This lives in your iCloud, not on our servers, and we cannot read it. Your videos, audio, transcripts, and projects are not uploaded, synced, or backed up by the app — they stay on your device.
Data we collect
To manage subscriptions, we process a limited set of data through our payment processor. BoldEdit does not use any third-party product analytics or usage tracking.
| Data | Purpose | Processor |
|---|---|---|
| Purchase history (subscription status) | Manage your subscription and unlock premium features | RevenueCat |
| A device / user identifier | Associate your subscription with your device | RevenueCat |
This data is linked to a device identifier but is not used to track you across other companies’ apps or websites.
We do not collect: your name, email, phone number, contacts, precise location, your photo library, or the content of your videos or audio.
Third-party services
- RevenueCat — subscription management — revenuecat.com/privacy
- Jamendo — if you add background music from the in-app music library, tracks are streamed/downloaded from Jamendo — jamendo.com/legal/privacy-policy
- Apple — the App Store processes purchases under Apple’s standard terms.
Accounts
BoldEdit does not require an account. There is no sign-up or login, and the app does not use Sign in with Apple.
Your choices and rights (GDPR / KVKK / CCPA)
Depending on your region, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your data.
- Media: your videos/audio never leave your device; deleting the app removes them.
- Purchase data held by our processor (RevenueCat): contact us (below) and we will action access or deletion requests.
- Analytics: BoldEdit collects no product analytics or usage-tracking data, so there is nothing to opt out of.
Children
BoldEdit is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from them.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. The “last updated” date above reflects the current version.
