Privacy Policy

1. Overview

FlowCaptions ("we", "us", "our") operates the website at flowcaptions.com and provides free AI-powered content generation tools. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information.

By using FlowCaptions, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

2. Information we collect

Information you provide

When you use our tools, you enter text inputs (such as topics, keywords, or text to paraphrase). This input is sent to the OpenAI API to generate your result. We do not store, sell, or share your input text. It is processed solely to return a result to your browser in real time.

Automatically collected information

Like most websites, we may collect standard server log data including your IP address, browser type, referring URL, and pages visited. This data is used in aggregate for security and performance monitoring.

3. Cookies and analytics

We use Google Analytics (GA4) to understand how visitors use our site. GA4 collects anonymised usage data (pages visited, session duration, device type) via browser cookies. No personally identifiable information is sent to Google Analytics.

We display advertisements through Google AdSense. AdSense may use cookies to serve personalised ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ad Settings.

4. Third-party services

FlowCaptions uses the following third-party services, each governed by their own privacy policies:

• OpenAI API — processes your tool inputs to generate AI results. See OpenAI's Privacy Policy.
• Google Analytics (GA4) — anonymised website analytics. See Google's Privacy Policy.
• Google AdSense — advertising network. See Google's Privacy Policy.

5. Data retention

FlowCaptions does not maintain user accounts. We do not retain the text you enter into our tools beyond the time needed to generate your result. Server logs may be retained for up to 30 days for security purposes and are then deleted.

6. Children's privacy

FlowCaptions is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.

7. Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights under applicable privacy laws (such as GDPR or CCPA), including the right to access, correct, or delete personal information we hold about you. Because we do not collect or store personal data beyond anonymised analytics, most such requests can be fulfilled by adjusting your browser or device settings.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected by the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of FlowCaptions after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
