Privacy Policy

Effective July 20, 2026

Slop Hound is built to respect your privacy. It has no accounts, shows no ads, and contains no analytics or tracking. Unless you upload to Claude for analysis, nothing you do in the app leaves your device.

Information we collect

None. We do not collect personal information, we do not create user accounts, and we do not use advertising identifiers or third-party tracking of any kind.

Microphone

When you tap Listen, the app uses your microphone to transcribe nearby audio into text on your device. The audio is processed locally in real time and is never recorded, saved, or transmitted. Only the resulting transcript text is kept, and it stays on your phone.

Transcripts

Transcripts (from listening or from text you paste) remain on your device. They are not uploaded anywhere by default.

Optional analysis with Claude

If you add your own Anthropic API key and tap Analyze with Claude, the app sends the current transcript text to Anthropic's API for analysis, authenticated with your key. This is the only time any data leaves your device, and only when you explicitly request it. That request is handled under Anthropic's Privacy Policy. The developer of Slop Hound never receives or stores your transcripts.

Your API key

If you provide an Anthropic API key, it is stored securely in your device's Keychain and is used only to authenticate your own requests to Anthropic. It is never sent anywhere else. You can remove it any time in Settings.

Children

Slop Hound is not directed to children and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone.

Data retention & deletion

Because we collect and store nothing off your device, there is nothing for us to retain or delete. Removing your API key in Settings or deleting the app clears everything from your phone.

Changes

If this policy changes, we'll update the date above.
