Your data & deleting

Short version: your words are yours, audio is never kept, and deleting means deleting.

What Ruxpin keeps

Your entries (both your verbatim words and the cleaned version), your sources, and the analysis built from them. That's the record. It's what the Library, Rux, and the Reader portrait are made of. That work uses one AI provider, Google's Gemini API, only after your OK: AI processing and your OK says what is sent and what never is.

Rux also keeps one short note about you as a reader, your reader file, rewritten weekly from your own themes and your conversations. Read it, and the themes behind it, at Profile → Reader file; deleting your account removes both, or ask us to clear them on their own.

What Ruxpin doesn't keep

Your audio. A recording exists only long enough to be transcribed. The file is deleted right after every transcription attempt, success or failure. What persists is the text.

What Ruxpin records about how you use it

Ruxpin records what you do in the app, never what you write or read: that a recording started, that an entry landed, which kind of screen you opened. It is how we see where the app is letting readers down. Those records are tied to your account, so deleting it takes them too, and each one expires on its own after 90 days. What Ruxpin records lists exactly what is kept, the two rules that stop it becoming a record of your reading, and what the website keeps.

Deleting an entry or a source

Open an entry → Edit → Delete this entry. Open a source and scroll to the foot of the page → Delete this source, which takes its entries with it. Deleted items leave your record immediately and are purged from our systems within 30 days.

Signing out on a shared phone

A capture that has not sent yet stays on the phone when you sign out, waiting for you: it is your thought, and it goes up the next time you sign in. Anyone else who signs in on the same phone cannot send it, see it, or delete it.

Deleting your account

Profile → Delete account erases the whole record: entries, sources, portrait, everything. The app confirms before it acts. Your data disappears from the app immediately and is permanently purged within 30 days; the same email can't quietly resurrect the old record.
