What this policy covers
This Privacy Policy explains how Scriba ("we", "us") collects, uses, and shares information when you use the Scriba macOS app, the Scriba web client, and this marketing website.
Meeting content — audio, transcripts, summaries, and chat — is designed to stay on your Mac first. We do not store meeting content in our authentication database.
Information we collect on this website
Depending on how you interact with getscriba.app, we may process:
- Technical data such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited (only if you enable Analytics cookies).
- Email addresses you submit for waitlists or newsletters (only if you enable Marketing cookies).
- Theme preference stored in your browser (Essential).
- Cookie consent choices (Essential).
Account and billing data
When you sign in, we store your account profile, subscription status, and billing relationship through Supabase and Stripe. This includes your email address, plan tier, and payment metadata. Stripe processes card payments; we do not store full card numbers.
Meeting data in the Mac app
Scriba stores meetings in a local SQLite database on your Mac. Audio files sit in an application support folder on the same machine. This is the primary copy of your data.
If you are signed in, the app may sync meeting metadata and audio to AWS (DynamoDB and S3) for cross-device access, subject to your plan and storage limits. Sync credentials are scoped per user.
Managed transcription and AI
When you use managed mode, audio chunks are sent to our streaming relay for transcription (AssemblyAI, EU region) and text is returned to your device. Chat and summary requests are proxied through Supabase Edge Functions to Anthropic. We enforce usage quotas on these requests.
Providers process data only to deliver the feature you requested. We do not use your meeting content to train public models through these managed integrations.
Service providers
We rely on trusted processors to operate Scriba, including:
- Supabase — authentication, billing records, and edge-function proxying.
- Stripe — subscription payments.
- AssemblyAI — managed speech-to-text.
- Anthropic — managed chat and summaries.
- Amazon Web Services — optional cloud sync storage and relay infrastructure.
Cookies and similar technologies
We use cookies and local storage to run the site and remember your choices. Non-essential cookies are only set after you consent.
You can review or change your preferences at any time via Cookie settings in the footer or our /privacy page. Categories: Essential (required), Marketing (waitlists and newsletters), Personalization (reserved), and Analytics (usage measurement).
Retention
Account and billing records are kept while your account is active and as required for tax, fraud prevention, and legal obligations. Local meeting data remains on your Mac until you delete it or uninstall the app.
Cloud sync data may be archived or deleted when you delete your account, subject to our data-deletion procedures.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or export personal data, or to object to certain processing. Contact us at the email below and we will respond within a reasonable time.
You can export meetings from the Mac app at any time. You may also manage marketing and analytics cookies through the site banner.
Children
Scriba is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
