LiveTranslator - Privacy Policy

Last updated: 1 July 2026. Developer: Marek Sima, DesignLeaf. Contact: marek@designleaf.co.uk

LiveTranslator is a translation tool for speech, conversations, text and photos. This policy explains what data the app processes and how.

1. Data stored on your device

The app has no developer server. The following is stored locally on your device only and is never sent to us: translation history, saved sessions and call transcripts; voice recordings you create in the Recordings tab; your glossary, quick phrases and app settings; your OpenAI API key, if you enter one, stored encrypted using the Android Keystore. You can delete this data at any time within the app, or by uninstalling the app.

2. Third-party processing, OpenAI - only if you enable AI features

Some optional features require your own OpenAI API key: AI reply suggestions, context-aware AI translation, AI conversation summary, and Whisper transcription of recordings. When you use these features, the relevant text and/or audio is sent over an encrypted HTTPS connection to OpenAI for processing, and the result is returned to your device. This happens only when these features are turned on and a key is set. See the OpenAI privacy policy at https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy

On-device translation with Google ML Kit, photo text recognition and speech recognition are used for core translation and may download language models over the internet.

3. Permissions

Microphone - to recognise and translate speech. Camera, optional - to translate text from photos. Internet - to download translation models and, if enabled, to use OpenAI features. Notifications and foreground service - to keep listening reliably while translating.

4. What we do NOT do

We do not collect your data on our servers, we have none. We do not use advertising or analytics SDKs. We do not sell or share your data with third parties, except the OpenAI processing described above that you explicitly enable.

5. Children

The app is not directed at children under 13.

6. Changes

We may update this policy; the last updated date will change accordingly.
