Dotta – Privacy Policy

Last Updated: February 19, 2025

This Privacy Policy explains how Dotta (“the App”), created by PermaEvidence SA (“we,” “us,” or “our”), collects, uses, discloses, and safeguards your information when you use our iOS application. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By using Dotta, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.


1. Introduction and Scope

Dotta is an AI chat application that operates without its own servers. All conversation data and credit balance information are stored locally on your device. Please note that while we do not store or access your data on our servers, some information may be shared with third-party providers to facilitate functionality such as voice transcription and LLM (Large Language Model) responses.


2. Information We Do Not Collect


3. Information Shared with Third Parties

  1. Voice Input:
    When you use Dotta’s voice input feature, your audio is sent to Groq Inc. for transcription. This means Groq Inc. receives the raw audio from your device to provide you with a text transcription.
  2. LLM Prompt and Response:
    When you input text or use the transcribed text from your voice input, the prompt is sent to Openrouter, which then routes the prompt to an LLM provider of our choice. The App actively blocks Openrouter from using certain providers (such as providers based in China).

Important: Any personal information you choose to include in your audio or text prompts will be transmitted to the respective third-party provider. You are responsible for ensuring that you do not share sensitive information if you do not wish to have that information processed by these services.


4. Local Data Storage

4.1 Conversations

All conversation history (text or transcribed audio) is stored only on your device. We do not have the ability to access, view, or retrieve this data.

4.2 Credits

Credits purchased through in-app purchases are stored locally on your device. We do not store or track any credit balances on our servers.

4.3 Loss of Data

Because all data is stored on your device, if you lose or break your device, or if you reset it, your conversations and credit balances will be permanently lost. We cannot restore this information as it is never transmitted or saved on our servers.


5. Children’s Privacy

Dotta is not directed to individuals under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you become aware that a child has provided us with personal information without parental consent, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.


6. Legal Basis for Processing

Since we do not collect personal information directly, our primary legal basis for any limited processing is to fulfill our contractual obligations to you (i.e., provide the App’s functionality) and to comply with applicable laws.


7. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the security of any information processed by the App, but please note:


8. Third-Party Links and Services

The App may contain links or references to third-party websites or services that are not operated or controlled by us. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of any third-party websites or services. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of all third parties with whom you interact.


9. International Users

Dotta is developed by PermaEvidence SA based in Costa Rica. If you access the App from outside Costa Rica, please note that your data may be transferred to and processed in countries where our third-party providers operate. By using the App, you consent to these transfers.


10. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will provide notice within the App or through other appropriate means. Your continued use of Dotta after any modifications to this Privacy Policy indicates your acceptance of the updated terms.
