Zunova Privacy Policy
Last updated: 11 November 2026
Zunova stores your expenses, savings, reminders, categories and grocery list in Supabase; it sends your voice recordings to ElevenLabs to turn them into text, and that text to Anthropic to work out what you meant. There is no advertising in the app. Optional ad measurement with Meta stays off until you agree.
Who is responsible
Sergio Nicolás Guijo Sastoque, based in Australia, is responsible for the information Zunova collects. He decides what data is collected, what it is used for, and who it is shared with.
For any question or request about your data, write to nicolas@zunova.me.
This policy covers the Zunova mobile app on iPhone and Android and the Android waitlist on zunova.me. It does not cover the third-party services named below, which have their own policies.
What we collect
Everything Zunova stores, you put there. The app does not read information from other apps on your phone, or from your contacts, calendar, photo library or location.
| Information | What it includes |
|---|---|
| Your account | Your email and password, or your Apple or Google identity if you sign in that way. Your name, if you choose to add one. The currency you pick and your plan type. |
| Your expenses and income | Amount, category, description, date, and whether it is income or an expense. |
| Your savings | The savings goals you create (name and target amount) and the money you add to them (amount and date). |
| Your grocery list | Each item's name, quantity, aisle and when you marked it as bought. Zunova also keeps “Your usuals”: how many times you've bought an item and when you last bought it, so it can suggest it again. |
| Your reminders and events | Title, category, date, time and color. |
| Your own categories | Name and color. |
Your password is handled by Supabase, the service that stores the information. Zunova never sees it or stores it.
Profile photo: if you add one, it stays on your phone. Zunova never uploads it or sends it anywhere, and it's deleted when you remove it, log out or delete your account.
How voice works
Before you use voice or AI for the first time, Zunova asks for your permission and explains what is sent and to whom. Nothing is sent to ElevenLabs or Anthropic until you agree. You can turn voice input off at any time in Settings → Voice & AI and use Zunova by typing only.
Zunova never stores your recording. It is deleted from your phone as soon as it has been sent, and neither the audio nor the transcript ever reaches Zunova's database.
The recording is sent to ElevenLabs only to turn it into text. We have turned off ElevenLabs' use of our data to train its AI. Right after each request, Zunova asks ElevenLabs to delete the transcript. What ElevenLabs keeps after that (for example the audio, backup copies for up to 30 days, or technical logs for troubleshooting and abuse checks) is governed by ElevenLabs' own privacy policy.
Anthropic doesn't use what Zunova sends to train its models, and deletes it within 30 days. The only exception is content flagged for breaking Anthropic's usage rules, which it can keep for up to 2 years.
Three things worth underlining:
- The recording is always deleted from your phone, even if the conversion fails or the connection drops.
- The transcript is not stored either. It only appears on the confirmation screen for you to review. The only thing that reaches the database is what you accept and save.
- Text you type takes the same path. What you type into the field on the home screen is also sent to Anthropic to be interpreted, exactly like a recording.
Who we share it with
Six services, each with one specific job, plus Meta only if you turn on ad measurement (see “Ad measurement with Meta” below). None of them receives your password, and apart from that optional ad measurement, none of them receives anything for advertising purposes.
| Service | What it receives | What for |
|---|---|---|
| Supabase | Your account, expenses, savings, reminders, categories, grocery list | Storing your information and handling your sign-in |
| Resend | The email address you sign up with | Sending your account emails: confirming your sign-up, resetting your password and verification codes |
| ElevenLabs | The voice recording | Turning it into text |
| Anthropic | Text you said or typed, app language, your currency, date and time, and a random account number (never your name or email), so Anthropic can detect abuse | Working out whether you meant an expense, an income, a saving, a reminder or something for your grocery list |
| Your email and name, if you choose to sign in with Google | Signing in | |
| Apple | Your Apple identity, if you choose to sign in with Apple. We also keep a token Apple gives us, used only to disconnect Zunova from your Apple ID when you delete your account. | Signing in |
| Meta (only if you agree) | Your device's advertising ID, basic device info, your IP address and these events: app installed and opened, account created, trial started, subscription bought (price and currency) | Measuring our ads on Facebook and Instagram |
Fonts: from version 1.4.1, the app's fonts are included in the app, so nothing is downloaded for them. Older versions download the fonts from Google Fonts the first time you open Zunova; Google receives your phone's IP address and basic device details for that download. Nothing else is sent.
Before your first voice or text request, the app asks for your permission to send it to ElevenLabs and Anthropic. If you say no, nothing is sent and you can still add expenses and reminders manually. You can withdraw your permission anytime in Settings → Voice & AI.
Each of these services receives only the minimum it needs for its one job, and is bound by its own privacy commitments to protect that information with a level of care equal to the one described in this policy.
Each of these services has its own privacy policy, which governs what it does with what it receives.
Beyond this, your information may be disclosed if a competent authority requires it by law.
Ad measurement with Meta
Only if you agree (iPhone: “Allow” on the tracking prompt; Android: the switch, off by default), the Meta SDK sends Meta Platforms, Inc. (USA) your device's advertising ID, basic device info (such as model, system version, language and time zone), your IP address and these events: app installed and opened, account created, trial started, subscription bought (price and currency). We use this to measure our ads on Facebook and Instagram. Meta handles it under its own policy.
We never send your name, email, phone, account ID, expenses, amounts, reminders, lists, categories, chat or voice, and we don't use Facebook Login.
On iPhone, if you choose “Ask App Not to Track”, nothing is sent to Meta. Apple may still tell Meta, without any of your data, that an ad led to an install (Apple's SKAdNetwork).
Turn it off in Settings › Privacy in the app, or in iPhone Settings › Privacy & Security › Tracking. Turning it off stops new events. Events already sent stay with Meta under its own policy. You can also reset your phone's advertising ID in your phone's settings.
Meta Platforms, Inc. is in the United States. If you turn on ad measurement, the data above is sent there.
When you turn ad measurement on or off we keep the date, the version of this text and your phone's platform, to show what you agreed to. It is deleted with your account.
What we don't do
Zunova shows no advertising inside the app. Specifically:
- We do not sell your information to anyone, and we do not hand it over for commercial purposes.
- There is no advertising inside the app.
- The only tracking is the optional ad measurement with Meta described above, off until you agree. Without it, nothing in the app follows you or reports what you do to another company.
- There is no automatic crash reporting that sends your information anywhere.
- We do not build profiles about you and we do not make automated decisions that affect you.
- We don't access your contacts, calendar or location. For your profile photo, the app only gets the one photo you pick, and it stays on your phone. The app doesn't ask for any of these permissions.
Phone permissions
Zunova asks for up to four permissions, and you can withdraw any of them at any time from your phone's settings.
| Permission | What for | If you refuse |
|---|---|---|
| Microphone | Recording when you tap the voice button | You can keep using the app by typing |
| Notifications | Alerting you about your reminders | Reminders are saved, but they will not alert you |
| Exact alarms and boot (Android only) | Making reminders arrive on time and keep working after you restart your phone | Alerts may arrive late or not at all |
| Tracking (iPhone only) | Only for the optional ad measurement with Meta | Nothing is sent to Meta and the app works the same |
The microphone activates only when you tap the voice button. Zunova does not listen in the background and does not record unless you ask it to.
Android waitlist on zunova.me
If you join the waitlist on zunova.me, we keep your email, the language of the page and, if present, the name of the ad or link that brought you. Nothing else: no IP address, no cookies and no tracking.
We use your email only to tell you when Zunova launches on Android. We do not use it for advertising, we do not sell it and we do not share it.
It is stored in Supabase, through Lovable Cloud, separately from the app's data.
You can ask us to delete it at any time by writing to nicolas@zunova.me. We delete the whole list once the Android launch announcement has been sent.
Your rights
At any time you can ask to:
- See what information we hold about you.
- Correct anything that is wrong or incomplete.
- Delete your account and all your information.
- Take your data with you in a file you can use elsewhere.
- Object to a specific use, or withdraw your consent.
- Complain to the data protection authority in your country.
Three of these you can do yourself, without writing to anyone: in Settings you can change your name, change your currency and delete your account.
For anything else, write to nicolas@zunova.me. We respond within the deadline set by the law in your country, and where none applies, within 30 days.
Depending on where you live, the law may give you additional rights: Ley 1581 of 2012 in Colombia, the GDPR in Europe, or the Privacy Act in Australia.
How long we keep your information
For as long as you have an account. Your expenses and reminders stay there until you delete them, or until you delete your account.
Grocery list items stay until you delete them or your account. “Your usuals” stay until you delete your account.
When you delete your account from Settings, everything is removed: your sign-in, your expenses, your savings, your reminders, your own categories, your grocery list and your usuals. This cannot be undone and there is no way to recover the information afterwards.
The Apple token mentioned above is deleted together with your account, after Zunova uses it to disconnect from your Apple ID.
Server backups may retain your information for a limited time before being overwritten, as happens with any database.
To prevent abuse and control costs, we keep a record of the date and time of each voice or text request, and of each Sign in with Apple step, made from your account. These records contain no content — not what you said or typed. We delete them automatically after 48 hours and use them for nothing else.
For each voice note we also keep how long it was — a number of seconds, never the recording itself — so we can apply the daily voice limit. It is deleted with the rest after 48 hours.
We also keep anonymous daily totals, such as how many reminders and expenses were created each day. They contain no personal data and are used only to understand how the app is used.
Zunova never stores voice recordings, so they are not part of this.
Security and where it is stored
Your information travels encrypted between your phone and the servers, and access to your data requires that you be signed in to your account.
Your account and entries are stored by Supabase in Sydney, Australia. ElevenLabs and Anthropic process requests mainly in the United States. By using Zunova, your information may be processed and stored in those countries. If you turn on ad measurement, Meta processes that data in the United States.
No system is completely secure. If a security failure affects your information, we will tell you and notify the relevant authority, as the law in your country requires.
Children
Zunova is not aimed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. If we learn that an account belongs to a child under that age, we delete it along with their information.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child created an account, write to nicolas@zunova.me and we will delete it.
Changes and contact
When something changes, we update this document and the date at the top. If the change is substantial — a new service that starts receiving your information, for example — we will tell you inside the app before it takes effect.
