RecMac privacy policy
Last updated: 13 September 2026
RecMac is built so that your meetings never leave your Mac. This policy describes exactly what the app does with data.
What RecMac records and stores
- Audio of meetings you choose to record (microphone, and — with your permission — system audio of online calls). Stored in the app's private container on your Mac. Raw audio is deleted automatically after a retention window you control (default 10 days); the transcript is the archive.
- Transcripts, minutes, decisions and action items, generated from that audio. Stored on your Mac until you delete the meeting.
- Calendar event details (title, time, attendees) for meetings you link a recording to, read from macOS Calendar with your permission. Stored on your Mac.
- Optional window screenshots of the conferencing window, if you turn on Read context from the meeting window. They are read on-device for participant names and shared text and then discarded, unless you choose to keep them.
Where processing happens
All transcription (WhisperKit) and all summarisation (Apple Intelligence) run on your Mac. RecMac operates no servers and sends no audio, text or metadata to Ulstein Media or to any third party.
Network use
The only network access is a one-time download of the transcription model from Hugging Face on first use. No personal data is sent with that request beyond what any file download entails.
Analytics and telemetry
None. RecMac contains no analytics, crash reporting or tracking of any kind. Debug logs written on your Mac contain identifiers and processing state only, never meeting content.
Sharing
Data leaves your Mac only when you explicitly share or export it (the Share button, Copy as Markdown, Export all meetings). What you share, and with whom, is entirely under your control.
Your control
Delete any meeting from the app, or everything at once via Settings → Data & privacy → Delete all meeting data. Removing the app removes its container.
Children
RecMac is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect information from them.
Changes
Changes to this policy will be published at this address with a new date.
