Privacy policy
Last updated August 19, 2026
Tee reads a video you shared and keeps the names of what was in it: the film, the song, the book, the recipe, the place. This page says what we hold while we do that, and what we throw away.
Who is responsible
The controller of the data described here, meaning whoever is answerable for it under UK and EU data protection law, is Min Lwin Kyaw (Sut Sawat, Rama 2 Road, Bangmod Subdistrict, Chow Thong District, Bangkok, 10150). You can reach us about anything on this page at [email protected].
What happens to the video
You share a link. We fetch the clip, read the spoken words, the text on screen and the caption, and hand back the findings. The video file itself is not kept. The service that reads it is stateless: it holds the clip only for the moments it needs to read it, then discards it. No copy of your video, its audio, or its transcript is stored anywhere.
What we store
- Your account. When you sign in with Apple or Google, we keep the identity Apple or Google returns, which normally includes your name and email.
- Your library. The videos you have shared, kept as their URL and title, plus the findings we kept from them, the covers, the addresses, and the folders you sort them into.
- Your settings. Preferences like which folders and features you use.
Payments
Subscriptions are sold and billed by Apple through the App Store. Tee never sees your card number or any other payment detail.
What we do not do
- We do not sell your data, rent it, or share it with advertisers.
- We do not use your videos or findings to train models.
- We do not track you across other apps or websites.
- We do not run third-party analytics. The only usage measure is an anonymous install identifier, random per install, used to understand how the app performs, and deleted when the app is deleted.
There is no advertising identifier (IDFA), no tracking permission prompt, and no cross-app tracking in Tee. Apple's rules require us to say so, and they are true.
Cookies on this site
This site sets no cookies. It stores nothing in your browser, runs no analytics and embeds nothing from anyone else. The fonts and images are served from this domain, so loading a page here tells no third party that you visited. That is why you were not asked to accept anything when you arrived.
Our host records the usual web server log for each request, including your IP address, and keeps it briefly to keep the site up and to stop abuse. If we ever add something that does store data in your browser, such as a sign-in for your library, we will say so here and, where the law requires it, ask you first.
Notifications
When a video is done, Tee pings you through Apple's push notification service. You can switch notifications off any time in iOS Settings.
Deletion
Hide or delete a finding and it is gone from your library. To delete your whole account and everything in it, write to [email protected] and we will remove it, normally within 30 days. Deleting the app does not delete your account, so say the word and we will do it.
Children
Tee is not aimed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child has given us data, tell us and we will remove it.
Changes
If this policy changes in a way that matters, we will update this page and note it in the app. If the change affects your rights, we will ask for your agreement inside the app before it applies.
Why we are allowed to hold it
If you are in the UK or the European Economic Area, the law wants us to name a reason for each thing we hold, so here they are.
- Your account, your library and your settings. We hold these to give you the app you asked for. The legal basis is performance of our contract with you.
- Reading a video you shared. Same reason. Sharing the link is how you ask for it, and the reading is the service.
- Push notifications. Your device permission is the consent, and iOS Settings is where you take it back.
- Server logs, anti-abuse and the anonymous install count. Our legitimate interest in keeping the service up, unabused and working. You can object to this, and the section below says how.
Who else sees it
Reading a video means sending what we read to a language model, and looking a finding up means asking whoever holds that catalogue. So a transcript goes to DeepSeek, and a title, a song name or a place name goes to services like TMDB, Spotify, Google Books, Google Places and GeoNames. Apple and Google give us your sign-in identity, Apple bills your subscription and Apple delivers the notifications. Nobody in that list is given your data to use for their own advertising.
Some of them sit outside the UK and the EEA. DeepSeek is in China and most of the rest are in the United States, so the transcript and the lookups leave Europe. Where the law requires a safeguard for that, we rely on the European Commission's standard contractual clauses. Ask us and we will tell you which ones cover which service.
How long we keep it
Your account and your library stay until you delete them or ask us to close the account, and then they go within 30 days. The video, its audio and its transcript are never kept at all. Web server logs are kept for a short period for security, and no longer.
Your rights
You can ask us for a copy of what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, ask us to delete it, ask us to stop or limit what we do with it, or ask for it in a portable file. Where we rely on legitimate interest you can object, and where we rely on consent you can withdraw it without that unpicking anything we did beforehand. Write to [email protected] and we will answer within a month. It costs you nothing.
Nothing here is decided about you by a machine on its own in a way that carries a legal effect. The findings are suggestions, and you choose what to do with them.
If you think we have handled your data badly, you are entitled to complain to your national data protection authority. In the UK that is the Information Commissioner's Office; elsewhere in the EEA it is the supervisory authority for the country you live or work in. You do not have to come to us first, though we would rather you did.

Questions about this policy: [email protected]. This page is plain English on purpose; if you want the legal version of anything here, ask and we will point you at it.
