Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026

Overview

Hearrd ("we", "us", "our") provides a voice feedback tool that businesses embed into their products. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that data.

Hearrd operates as a data processor on behalf of our customers (the businesses that embed the widget). If you have submitted voice feedback through a product that uses Hearrd, the business that owns that product is the data controller and their privacy policy also applies.

What we collect

From end users (people who use the widget):

-

Voice recordings submitted through the feedback widget

-

Transcriptions of those recordings, generated automatically

-

User ID and email address, if the product owner passes these to us

-

Duration of the recording and timestamp of submission

-

Basic browser information (browser type, operating system) for error monitoring

From customers (businesses that use Hearrd):

-

Account information: name, email address, and password (hashed)

-

Project configuration: widget settings, prompts, and API keys

-

Payment information — we do not store card details

How we use your data

To provide the Hearrd service: transcribing, analysing, and storing voice feedback on behalf of the product owner

Microphone consent

The Hearrd widget always shows a consent notice before any recording begins. Users must explicitly grant microphone permission through their browser, this is a browser-level requirement that cannot be bypassed. Recordings only occur when the user actively presses the record button.

Hearrd is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has submitted feedback through a product using Hearrd, please contact us and we will delete it immediately.
