CrewTalk Privacy Policy
Effective Date: 8 November 2026 (applies to app version 2.0 and later)
Developer: Digital NEXUS
Package Identifier: com.crewtalk.nexus
1. What CrewTalk does
CrewTalk has two kinds of channels:
- Voice-log channels record short voice notes and keep them on your phone. Nothing from these channels leaves your phone.
- Crew channels are live push-to-talk: while you hold the button, your voice is sent live to everyone who joined the channel with the same code. Crew-channel audio is not recorded or stored by CrewTalk.
2. Data used by crew channels
- Your voice, only while you hold the talk button. It is relayed in real time to the other people on the channel and is not recorded.
- The display name you choose, shown to the other people on the channel.
- A random device ID created by the app (it contains no personal information), used to tell participants apart.
- The channel code you created or joined.
- Your IP address and connection details, which any internet connection uses, processed by the service providers below to carry the audio.
We do not ask for your phone number, email, contacts or location, and we do not build a profile of you.
3. Service providers
- LiveKit relays crew-channel audio between phones. Our LiveKit project is hosted in the European Union (Frankfurt). LiveKit processes this data for us under its own privacy policy and keeps connection logs for a limited time.
- Cloudflare runs the small service that lets a phone join a channel. It sees the channel code, display name and device ID in each join request.
We do not sell data and we do not use advertising, analytics or tracking services.
4. Data on your phone
Voice notes, channel names and codes, your display name and settings are stored in the app's private storage on your phone. The app keeps your 30 most recent voice notes. You can delete everything by clearing the app's storage in Android settings or by uninstalling the app.
5. Permissions
- Microphone: used only while you hold the button.
- Notifications and background service: while you are connected to a crew channel, CrewTalk shows a notification and keeps running so you can hear your crew with the screen off. Leaving the channel or closing the app stops it.
- Internet: used for crew channels only.
- Vibration: short vibration on the button (can be turned off).
6. Other people and reports
Anyone with a channel's code can join it, so share codes only with people you trust. You can mute a person on your phone, and report them from the channel's crew list. A report opens an email to us with the channel code and the name shown. We use reports only to deal with abuse.
7. Children
CrewTalk is meant for adults at work and is not directed at children under 13.
8. Your rights and contact
Because crew-channel audio is not stored, there is no recording we could give you or delete. For questions or data requests, contact us:
