How we share information
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it to track you across other companies' apps or websites. We share data with service providers that help us run the Service, only as needed to perform their work and under terms that protect it to the standard described here: Amazon Web Services (audio and file storage), Railway and Vercel (hosting), Resend (email), Stripe (payments), Apple (Sign in with Apple and push notifications), Dropbox (only if you connect your Dropbox account), and Google (only if you connect Google Drive). The people you add to a project can see its audio, comments, and your username. We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect the rights, safety, and integrity of STEMR, our users, or others.
If you connect Google Drive, we only access the files you choose, and only to copy them into your project.STEMR's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements. You can disconnect at any time from the Google Drive import window.
Data retention
We retain account and project data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. You can delete your account at any time in Settings, under Delete account. That removes your account, your sessions, and every project only you belong to, including its audio, and cancels any paid plan. Projects you share with other people stay with them, and your comments there stay without your name on them. We may keep limited records where the law requires it.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies to run the Service, remember your preferences, and keep you signed in. We do not use analytics or advertising cookies unless you accept them in our cookie banner. For a full list of cookies, how long they last, and how to manage them, see our Cookie Policy.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal information. Contact us at contact@stemr.co.uk to make a request. See also our Data Compliance page.
Children
The Service is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
