Speakroll Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 18, 2026

Speakroll helps you turn written copy into short lines you can say on camera, hear them once for pacing, and read them from a teleprompter. This policy follows a script from the moment you paste it to the moment you finish reading, and says what happens to your information at each cue.

Before the first line

  • There is no Speakroll account and no Speakroll server. Your scripts are not uploaded to us.
  • Scripts, drafts, backdrops and settings live in the app's private storage on your iPhone.
  • AI rewriting is optional. Only after you tap Allow does Speakroll send the text you are rewriting to DeepSeek.
  • Speakroll shows no ads, includes no analytics or attribution SDKs, does not track you across apps, does not show an App Tracking Transparency prompt, and sells nothing in the app.

Cue 1: Pasting your copy

You paste text into Speakroll, type it, or start from the bundled sample, and choose a target length of 30, 60 or 180 seconds. The text stays on your device unless you choose to rewrite it with AI.

Cue 2: Making it speakable

Writing it yourself. You can type your own lines or use the sample. Nothing leaves your iPhone.

Rewriting with AI (optional). The first time you ask for a rewrite, Speakroll shows a consent screen that names DeepSeek and links to its privacy policy. If you tap Allow, and while Use AI stays on in Settings, each rewrite sends DeepSeek:

  • the text you pasted, or for Rewrite again, the spoken lines of that one script;
  • the target length you picked;
  • your most recent pace and sentence-length preference (Slower pace, Shorter sentences), if you set one with Change;
  • any instruction you typed for Rewrite again.

DeepSeek sends back short spoken lines and pause marks. You review them before anything is saved to your library.

What is not sent: your other scripts, your rewrite history, photos, audio, location, contacts, or any account, device or advertising identifier.

The request goes over an encrypted connection straight to DeepSeek, which receives your IP address as part of the connection and handles the request under its own privacy policy. We cannot control how long DeepSeek keeps what it receives, so leave confidential or personal details out of text you rewrite.

Stopping AI: choose Not now on the consent screen, or turn Use AI off in Settings. Rewrites stop and manual lines keep working. Turning AI off does not recall text DeepSeek already received.

Cue 3: Listening and rehearsing

Listen reads your lines aloud with the iPhone's built-in voice, on the device.

Practice mic turns on your iPhone's audio session so you can rehearse with the microphone and speaker ready. Speakroll does not record, transcribe, store or send your voice.

Cue 4: The prompter

The teleprompter scrolls your lines at the speed you set and remembers where you stopped so you can resume. That position is saved on your iPhone only.

Cue 5: Backdrops, snapshots and copies

  • Stage backdrop: you can pick a photo from your album or take one with the camera. Speakroll saves a copy for that script in its private storage. It is never sent to DeepSeek or anywhere else.
  • Cue snapshot: you can save an image of a cue card to your Photos library.
  • Copy cue card: places the script text on the iOS clipboard, where other apps you paste into can read it.

Permissions

| Permission | When asked | Why | | --- | --- | --- | | Photos | When you import a stage backdrop | Choosing an album image for the cue card | | Camera | When you take a stage reference shot | Capturing a backdrop photo | | Photos (add only) | When you save a cue snapshot | Writing the snapshot to your library | | Microphone | When you turn on Practice mic | Readying audio for rehearsal; nothing is recorded |

Every permission is optional and can be changed in the iOS Settings app. Declining one does not stop you writing, listening to or reading scripts.

What stays on your iPhone

  • your script library, pins and the current draft;
  • pace and sentence-length preferences from Change;
  • prompter positions and stage backdrop photos;
  • your AI choice, scroll speed and other settings.

Speakroll does not use iCloud sync, and none of this is copied to us.

Keeping and removing

  • Not this discards a draft before it reaches your library.
  • Deleting Speakroll from your iPhone removes its scripts, backdrops and settings. There is no cloud copy, so we cannot restore them.
  • Snapshots saved to Photos and text you pasted elsewhere are managed outside Speakroll.

Purchases and Apple

Speakroll has no in-app purchases or subscriptions. Apple handles App Store downloads under its own terms.

Children

Speakroll is a general-audience tool and does not knowingly collect information from children.

Changes

If Speakroll starts collecting or sharing information differently, we will update this policy and its effective date before that release.
