Malbeot Translator Privacy Policy

Effective date: September 29, 2026

Code and Vision ("we", "us") respects your privacy and complies with applicable data protection laws, including the Personal Information Protection Act of the Republic of Korea. This policy explains how Malbeot Translator (the "App") handles your information.

Our core principle: translation, speech recognition and conversation history are processed only on your phone. What you type or say is never sent to us or to any other server. The App does not require an account or sign-in.

1. Information We Process and Why

A. Information processed only on your phone (never transmitted)

· Text you enter and its translation: to provide chat translation.

· Voice (microphone input): recorded only while you press the Speak button or while Auto mode is on. It is used for transcription and translation and is not stored afterwards.

· Translation history: stored only on your phone so you can review and search it in the History screen.

· App settings (tone, situation mode, etc.): stored only on your phone.

B. Information that may be transmitted

· Translation model download: on first launch, the App downloads a translation model file (about 2.6 GB) from the internet. As with any internet connection, the server providing the file (Hugging Face) may receive connection information such as your IP address. Your conversations are never included.

· Advertising: the App is free and shows ads through Google AdMob. To show ads and measure their performance, your advertising ID, device information (device model, OS version, etc.), app usage information (ad impressions and clicks, etc.) and IP address may be sent to Google. Your conversations and voice are never used for advertising.

C. Permissions the App requests

· Microphone (optional): used only for voice translation. Chat translation works without it.

· Internet: used to download the translation model and to show ads. After the model is downloaded, translation works without an internet connection.

2. Third-Party Processing

We do not share your conversations or voice with anyone. The following service providers process information to operate the App:

· Google LLC (Google AdMob): showing ads and measuring ad performance

Information: advertising ID, device information, app usage information, IP address

· Hugging Face, Inc.: providing the translation model file download

Information: connection information such as IP address at the time of download

3. International Data Transfers

While you use the App, information may be transferred outside your country as follows:

· Recipient: Google LLC (United States)

Information: advertising ID, device information, app usage information, IP address

When and how: when an ad is shown, over an encrypted network

Purpose: showing ads and measuring ad performance

· Recipient: Hugging Face, Inc. (United States)

Information: connection information such as IP address

When and how: when you download the translation model, over an encrypted network

Purpose: providing the translation model file

If you do not want these transfers, you may stop using or uninstall the App. In that case, translation features will not be available.

4. Retention

· Translation history and settings: kept on your phone until you delete them in the App or uninstall the App. We never receive or keep this information.

· Voice recordings: discarded as soon as translation is complete; never stored.

· Translation model file: removed when you delete it in Settings or uninstall the App.
