Privacy Policy

This privacy policy applies to the Lorvo app for mobile devices, together with any related services operated by Murat Tanrikologlu (collectively, the "Application"). Murat Tanrikologlu is hereby referred to as the "Service Provider".


Summary

Lorvo is a translation application. To produce a translation, the content you choose to translate (the text you type, the photo you capture or select, and your voice while you are using a voice feature) is sent to third-party artificial intelligence services, specifically OpenAI and Google. This is the core function of the Application and it cannot work offline.

The Application asks for your explicit consent inside the app, and explains what is sent and to whom, before any of this content is sent for the first time. If you do not consent, the translation features are not used and no content is sent. You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting the Service Provider or by uninstalling the Application.

Your conversations, photos and voice recordings are not stored by the Service Provider.


Artificial Intelligence Processing and Third-Party AI Services

The list below describes, for each feature, exactly what data leaves your device, who receives it, how it is transmitted, and how long it is kept.

Use of your content by the AI providers. The Service Provider uses the paid, commercial service tiers of OpenAI and Google. Under the terms of those tiers, content submitted through the interface is not used to train their models. The Service Provider has reviewed the privacy and data-processing terms of both providers and requires them, by contract, to provide a level of protection for your data that is equal to or greater than the protection described in this privacy policy, and to process your data only for the purpose of returning the requested translation.

Please do not submit highly sensitive information. Because the content you translate is sent to a third-party AI service, you should avoid entering passwords, payment card details, government identification numbers, or other highly sensitive personal information into the Application.


Information Collection and Use

The Application collects information when you download and use it. This information may include information such as


Cookies and tracking technologies

The Application or its third-party SDKs may use cookies, SDKs, pixels, and similar technologies to support functionality, analytics, or service delivery. Where required by applicable law, the Service Provider will obtain consent before using non-essential tracking technologies.


Your Rights

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data held by the Service Provider. To exercise these rights, or to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, contact the Service Provider at dev.murattan@icloud.com.


Your California privacy rights (CCPA/CPRA)

If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information is collected, the right to delete personal information, the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, and the right to non-discrimination for exercising these rights. To exercise your CCPA/CPRA rights, contact the Service Provider at dev.murattan@icloud.com.

The Service Provider may use the information you provide to send important information, required notices, and, where permitted by law, marketing communications.


For a better experience while using the Application, the Service Provider may require you to provide certain personally identifiable information, including but not limited to dev.murattan@icloud.com. The information the Service Provider requests will be retained and used as described in this privacy policy.


Camera and Photo Processing

When you use the Application's camera translation feature, the photo you capture or select is sent to the Service Provider's server and forwarded to OpenAI, a third-party artificial intelligence service, for the sole purpose of reading and translating the text contained in that image.

The image is processed in memory only, for the duration of that single request. It is not saved to any database or file storage, it is not written to logs, and it is not retained after the translation has been returned. Images are not used for any other purpose, are not shared with any other party, and are not sold.

The Application does not detect, analyze, or store faces. It does not collect biometric identifiers, facial geometry, or any face data that could be used to identify a person, and it does not attempt to identify people appearing in the images.

The Application accesses only the single picture you take with the camera or choose from your device. It does not read, scan, or upload the rest of your photo library.


Microphone and Voice Processing

The Application uses the microphone only while you are actively using a voice feature: during a live voice conversation, or while you are dictating text. The microphone is not used at any other time and the Application does not listen in the background.

As described above, this audio is streamed directly from your device to the relevant AI provider (Google for live voice conversations, OpenAI for dictation) and is not routed through, recorded by, or stored by the Service Provider. No audio file is written to your device.


Third Party Access

Only aggregated, anonymized data is periodically transmitted to external services to aid the Service Provider in improving the Application and their service. The Service Provider may share your information with third parties in the ways that are described in this privacy statement.


International Data Transfers

The Service Provider or its third-party service providers may transfer personal data to countries outside your country of residence, including outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Where applicable law requires safeguards for international transfers, the Service Provider will use appropriate mechanisms.

Data protection laws in other countries may differ from those in your jurisdiction. Where required by law, the Service Provider will apply appropriate safeguards and obtain any consent required for the transfer.


Please note that the Application utilizes third-party services that have their own Privacy Policy about handling data. Below are the links to the Privacy Policy of the third-party service providers used by the Application:


The Service Provider may disclose User Provided and Automatically Collected Information:


Opt-Out Rights

You can decline the artificial intelligence processing described above when the Application asks for your consent. If you decline, the translation features are not used and no content is sent to any AI provider.

You can stop further collection of information from your mobile device by uninstalling the Application. Uninstalling will stop the Application from collecting data from your device, but it does not automatically delete information that has already been transmitted to the Service Provider or to third parties.

To request deletion of your personal data, to withdraw consent, or to exercise any of your rights, contact the Service Provider at dev.murattan@icloud.com.


Data Retention Policy

The Service Provider retains personal data based on its necessity for the stated purposes:

You may request deletion of your personal data, subject to any legal obligation to retain it. If you want the Service Provider to delete User Provided Data submitted through the Application, please contact them at dev.murattan@icloud.com. Please note that some User Provided Data may be required for the Application to function properly.


Children

The Application is not intended for children under 4 years of age, or such higher age as required by applicable law. The Service Provider does not knowingly solicit data from children or market the Application to them.


Where parental or guardian consent is required under applicable law, the Application is not intended for use without that consent. The Service Provider does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 4 years of age in violation of applicable law. In the event the Service Provider discovers that a child has provided personal information, the Service Provider will immediately delete this from their servers. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided the Service Provider with personal information, please contact the Service Provider (dev.murattan@icloud.com) so that they will be able to take the necessary actions.


Security

The Service Provider is concerned about safeguarding the confidentiality of your information. The Service Provider provides physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect information the Service Provider processes and maintains.


Data Breach Notification

If a data breach occurs that affects your personal data, the Service Provider will notify you in accordance with applicable legal requirements, including, where required, providing information about the nature of the breach and the steps being taken to address it.


Changes

The Service Provider may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The Service Provider will notify you of material changes by posting the updated Privacy Policy with an effective date. Where required by law, the Service Provider will seek your consent to material changes before they take effect.


Previous versions of this Privacy Policy will be maintained and made available upon request by contacting the Service Provider at dev.murattan@icloud.com.


This privacy policy is effective as of 2026-09-22


Your Consent

Where processing is based on consent, you provide that consent by affirmatively opting in inside the Application before any content is sent to a third-party AI service. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting processing carried out before withdrawal. Processing based on other lawful bases is carried out as described above.
