Privacy Policy

Askwho Casts Pro · Last updated 7 July 2026

Short version: we keep only what the service needs to work, we don't run ads or sell data, and you can ask us to delete everything.

What we hold

Account: your email address, from Google sign-in or the email link you use. That's the whole identity — no profile beyond it.
Your library: the article links you submit, the text extracted from them, the generated audio, and your private feed address.
Usage records: credit history, episode generation logs, and subscription state — the bookkeeping the meter runs on.
Payments: handled entirely by Stripe. We never see or store card numbers; we keep Stripe's reference IDs and what was bought.

Cookies

One session cookie to keep you signed in. No advertising or cross-site tracking of any kind.

Who processes data for us

Cloudflare — hosting, storage, and delivery of the whole service.
Stripe — subscriptions and payments.
Replicate — speech synthesis: the text of articles you submit is sent there to be spoken.
OpenAI — spoken image descriptions: images from articles you submit are sent there to be described (you can switch this off per episode).
Google — sign-in, if you choose it.

Each receives only what its job needs, and nothing is shared for advertising.

Retention and deletion

We keep your data while your account exists. Email hello@askwhocasts.com from your account address to delete your account — we remove your library, feed, and personal data within 30 days, keeping only what tax and accounting law requires us to hold about payments.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR you can ask for a copy of your data, correction, deletion, or restriction of processing — same email as above. If you're unhappy with how we've handled something you can complain to the ICO (ico.org.uk).
