Privacy Policy - Lecture Recorder: Bookmarks

Publisher: Veltis Labs LLC. Contact: contact@veltislabs.com. Published at https://apps.digitalshijil.com/lecture-recorder/privacy/

The short version. The app has no account, no server of ours, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking. Your recordings, bookmarks and notes live in the app's storage on your phone. We cannot see them.

The microphone. Recording a lecture needs the microphone, and Android asks for it only when you press the red record button for the first time, after a notice reminding you to ask permission before you record other people. The sound is encoded into an audio file in the app's private storage on your phone. It is never sent anywhere. If you refuse the permission, the rest of the app still opens, but nothing can be recorded.

Notifications and the screen off. To keep a recording running when the screen is off, the app runs a foreground service of the microphone type and shows a notification with Bookmark and Stop buttons and the running time. Notifications are optional; without them the recording still runs.

Files you choose. When you share a lecture, the app writes a temporary file (audio, ZIP, Markdown or PDF) to its cache and hands it to the app you pick in the Android share sheet. It also writes a backup or a data CSV only to a place you pick in the system file dialog, and reads a backup only when you pick one. The app asks for no storage, photos, contacts, location or Bluetooth permission.

What Google collects. Pro is bought through Google Play Billing, and the optional review prompt uses Google Play's in-app review. Google handles those under its own privacy policy. The Play data safety form lists App info and performance > Diagnostics as collected by Google Play Billing, not shared by us, required for purchases to work. The app itself sends nothing over the network and does not request the internet permission.

Your controls. Settings > Export my data saves a CSV of your courses, lectures, bookmarks and notes (without audio). Settings > Back up everything saves your notes and all the audio to one file you choose, and Restore reads it back. Settings > Delete all data erases every recording, bookmark, note and setting and returns the app to a fresh install; your Pro purchase stays with your Google account and can be restored. Deleting a single lecture removes its audio file, bookmarks and notes. Uninstalling removes the data as well. If Android backup is on for your phone, the app database and settings can be part of your Google backup; the audio files are not. Turning backup off in Android settings stops that.

Recording rules. Laws and school rules about recording people differ from place to place. You are responsible for asking permission and recording lawfully. The app shows a reminder before the first recording and on the recording screen.

Children. The app is not designed for children under 13 and collects nothing from anyone.

Changes. If this policy changes, the new version is published at the address above with a new date. Last updated: 2026-11-05.
