Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2026

Your privacy matters. This policy explains how Queen Mama collects, uses, and protects your information.

Introduction

Queen Mama (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our macOS application and website.

Important: Queen Mama does not sell your data. We do not train AI models on your data. Your conversations and transcriptions are never stored on our servers.

Information We Collect

Information You Provide Directly

  • Account Information: If you create an account, we may collect your name and email address.
  • API Keys: You provide your own API keys for AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) and transcription services (Deepgram, AssemblyAI). These are stored locally in your macOS Keychain and are never transmitted to our servers.
  • Support Communications: If you contact us for support, we collect the information you provide.

Information Collected Automatically

  • Usage Data: We may collect anonymous usage statistics to improve our application, such as feature usage patterns and error reports.

  • Your screen content or screenshots
  • Your AI conversation history
  • Your session data or mode configurations

How Your Data is Processed

Queen Mama operates primarily on your local device. Here's how data flows:

Audio & Transcription

When you start a session, audio from your microphone is streamed directly to your chosen transcription provider (Deepgram or AssemblyAI) using your API key. The audio is processed in real-time and is not stored by Queen Mama.

AI Processing

When you request AI assistance, your transcribed text and screen context are sent directly to your chosen AI provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google) using your API key. We do not route this data through our servers.

Local Storage

Session history, preferences, and custom modes are stored locally on your Mac using SwiftData. This data never leaves your device unless you explicitly export it.

Third-Party Services

Queen Mama integrates with third-party services that have their own privacy policies. When you use these services through Queen Mama, your data is subject to their privacy policies:
