This notice describes the current Cuevilo application for iPhone, iPad and Mac and its Apple Watch remote. Publisher and privacy contact: TES MED LINK GmbH, Viktoriastraße 3B, 86150 Augsburg, Germany. Email: tesmedlink@gmail.com.
Cuevilo stores scripts, titles, folders, projects, favourites, emphasis and pause marks, editing history, recorded video and audio, subtitle drafts, selected editing assets and preferences in its app storage on your device. This content provides the reading, recording, editing and library features you choose. Cuevilo does not automatically upload your library to a developer-operated server. The current app includes no advertising trackers or third-party analytics SDKs and does not require a developer account.
Camera and microphone permissions let you record video, audio and microphone tests. Speech recognition permission supports speech-following and subtitles. System pickers provide access to the documents, images, logos, videos or music you choose. Saving a video to Photos adds your selected output to that library. QR pairing uses the camera to read a code; it does not create a video or microphone recording. You can change permissions in system settings. Declining a permission may limit its related feature.
Cuevilo prefers on-device speech recognition when the selected language and device support it. If on-device recognition is unavailable, online recognition requires your separate choice in the speech-following or subtitle controls. When allowed, audio needed for recognition is processed by Apple’s speech-recognition service under Apple’s privacy terms. Speech-following uses microphone input; subtitle generation uses audio extracted from your selected video. Recognition is not performed by a TES MED LINK server. You can use steady scrolling without speech-following and can decline online recognition.
iCloud sync is off by default. Enabling it uploads supported library content, including scripts, folders, favourites, projects, videos and subtitle information, to your Apple Account’s private CloudKit database and transfers changes to your devices using the same account. Transfers can use network traffic, iCloud quota and local storage. A Wi-Fi or wired-network preference is available. Sync runs while the app is open; interrupted transfers can resume later. This private library is not made available to other users or to the developer through the app. Apple’s iCloud processing, hosting and system backups are subject to your Apple settings and Apple’s terms. Turning sync off does not delete previously stored local or cloud copies.
Computer-to-device text transfer starts only when you enable it. A temporary local web page and access code accept a script over your local network. This text-transfer connection uses local HTTP without transport encryption: use a trusted network. Received text is shown for review and saved only when you choose to save it.
This is separate from Apple Watch remote control. Watch control uses Apple WatchConnectivity with the paired iPhone; Mac and iPad commands are relayed over an authenticated encrypted local connection. Control information includes device identifiers, a short script title, recording and reading status, elapsed time and speed, rather than a video or audio stream. Pairing keys are stored in the device Keychain and are not included in Cuevilo’s iCloud sync or text backup. Pairing QR codes contain a secret: display or share them only with someone you intend to authorise. You can forget pairing on iPhone, disable the target connection or renew its key.
You choose when and where to export a text backup, share a document or video, or save to Files or Photos. The selected destination and its own privacy settings control those copies. A text-library backup does not include videos. Links to our other apps open their App Store pages only when selected and do not install anything automatically. Visiting product or support websites, including this Google Sites website, is subject to the hosting service’s own data processing and privacy terms. This notice does not mean that a website visit is free of server logs or cookies.
Local content remains until you delete it, clear relevant temporary files or remove the app, subject to system backup behaviour. Items in the app’s trash still occupy space until permanently deleted. With sync enabled, deletion changes can move records to trash on other devices; the current version does not automatically purge existing CloudKit copies. You may need to manage Cuevilo cloud data through Apple’s iCloud storage controls. Uninstalling Cuevilo, disabling sync or deleting a local item does not automatically remove copies in Photos, Files, exports, another device or system backups. Manage those copies separately. Cuevilo does not retain a developer-server copy of your library.
If you email support, we receive your email address, message and any attachments you choose to send, and use them to respond and handle the request. Avoid passwords, payment details and unnecessary private recordings. We retain support correspondence only as needed to handle the request, meet applicable recordkeeping duties or resolve a dispute. Where applicable, responding to support relies on our legitimate interest in assisting users. Optional processing based on consent can be stopped through the relevant controls, without affecting earlier lawful processing.
Depending on the circumstances, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability of personal information we hold, object to processing, withdraw consent and complain to a competent data-protection authority. Contact tesmedlink@gmail.com. We cannot retrieve or erase private device or Apple Account content that we do not possess.
Cuevilo is a general-purpose recording tool. We do not knowingly request personal information from children through a developer account or advertising profile. If a child has sent information to support, a parent or guardian may contact us about deletion. We will update this notice when Cuevilo’s data handling changes. The date above identifies this version; material new optional processing will be explained through the relevant feature and permissions.
