Privacy and document handling

The operator responsible for processing your personal data is identified in our Impressum / Legal notice. For privacy requests, contact swiftyturtlesoftware@gmail.com.

Doc2Audio processes the files you upload to extract text and generate audio. You must have permission to upload and convert the material. Do not upload confidential material or sensitive personal information during this preview release.

When you request audio, the text is sent to OpenAI for adaptation and speech generation. AI narration may contain mistakes. Only request a preview or conversion if you agree to that processing.

No account is required. Your order link is a private access link: anyone who has it can access the order. Keep it private. Audio downloads use expiring links, and private order pages are excluded from indexing.

Unconverted documents expire after 24 hours. After a full conversion, the source upload is removed and audio expires after seven days. Expired source text and audio are removed by an hourly cleanup task. Limited operational records may remain for service maintenance and payment administration.

IP addresses are used temporarily to limit abuse. Optional first-party analytics starts only after you select Accept analytics. It records random visitor and session identifiers, visit times, and page-view counts, not document contents, filenames, email addresses, or private link tokens. While the page is visible, it sends a once-per-minute activity signal. Visitor cookies last up to 90 days and session cookies expire after 30 minutes without recorded activity. Analytics records are deleted after 90 days of inactivity when analytics or the admin dashboard is accessed. Counts exclude visitors who decline analytics and are not a count of identifiable people.

You can reject analytics or withdraw consent using Cookie settings in the footer. Withdrawal deletes analytics records for the current browser identifier and removes its analytics cookies. Consent preferences are stored for 180 days. Your chosen day or night theme is stored for one year. These preference cookies are used to remember your explicit choices. No advertising cookies are used.

If checkout is enabled, Stripe processes the payment; card details are not stored by this application. Resend receives your email address when a completion link is sent. Service totals such as uploads and completed conversions are calculated from operational order records independently of optional analytics.

This is a preview release. Paid checkout remains unavailable until the live payment, email delivery and operator contact information are configured.
