- • We don't train any model on your files.
- • We don't sell your data to anyone.
- • Delete any deck anytime from My decks. To delete your account and all data, email privacy@unfill.io.
- • Payments are handled by Stripe. We never see or store your card number.
Who we are
unfill.io is a product of Cloud Vertex LLC, a Florida limited liability company based in Jacksonville, FL, United States. When we say "we," "us," or "unfill" on this page, we mean Cloud Vertex LLC.
For any privacy question, email privacy@unfill.io. A real person reads it.
What we collect
Account information
If you create an account, we store your email address and a secure identifier from our authentication provider (AWS Cognito). We do NOT store your password — Cognito hashes and stores it on their infrastructure.
Recordings you upload
When you upload an audio or video file (or paste a URL to one), we temporarily store that file in an encrypted Amazon S3 bucket. We use it only to generate your transcript and deck. The file is automatically deleted about 24 hours after upload — a lifecycle rule enforces this at the storage layer. AWS runs these deletions once a day, so occasionally removal can take up to about 48 hours.
Transcripts
The transcript we generate from your recording is stored with your account so you can regenerate or refine decks later. Transcripts are text-only and much smaller than the recording. Transcript text is kept with your account until you ask us to delete it (privacy@unfill.io).
Generated decks
The PowerPoint file we build for you is stored in an encrypted S3 bucket and available for you to download. Decks are automatically deleted after 30 days. You can also delete them earlier at any time from My decks. After a file expires, the deck's entry and slide text stay in My decks until you delete them.
If you create a share link, anyone with the link can view the deck's slides until you stop sharing or delete the deck. Shared pages are not indexed by search engines. If you add frames from a video to a deck, those still images are stored as part of the deck until you delete it, even after the original recording is deleted.
Payments and plan usage
If you upgrade to Pro, payment is processed by Stripe. We store your plan, a Stripe customer ID, and your renewal date. We never see or store your card number. We also count the decks you download each month to apply your plan's limit.
Usage information
We keep basic technical records: which endpoint you hit, the response, and error logs. We use this to keep the service working and to fix bugs. We do not build advertising profiles from this data.
Cookies
When you sign in, we set HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax, Secure session cookies to keep you authenticated. These cannot be read by JavaScript, which protects them from cross-site attacks. We also use a small cookie to remember whether you've acknowledged our upload consent notice. We do not use advertising or analytics cookies. We use Plausible, a cookieless analytics service, to count page visits and actions like downloads; it stores no cookies and no personal data.
Third parties we use
To provide the service, some of your data passes through the following processors. We picked each of them because they have strong security practices.
- Amazon Web Services (AWS) — hosts our servers, storage (S3), database (RDS), authentication (Cognito), email (SES), and CDN (CloudFront). Connections use HTTPS (TLS). Files in storage are encrypted at rest with AES-256 (S3), and the database is encrypted at rest with AWS RDS encryption.
- Deepgram — processes audio to produce the transcript; see Deepgram's privacy policy for their data handling.
- Anthropic — turns your transcript into slide content using their Claude API. Anthropic's terms confirm they do not train models on API traffic.
- Stripe — processes payments for Pro plans. Card details go directly to Stripe and never touch our servers.
- Plausible — privacy-friendly website analytics. No cookies, no personal data, no cross-site tracking. Used only to count visits and actions like downloads.
- Zoho Mail — receives email sent to our unfill.io addresses. Used only for you contacting us; we don't share your email with Zoho unless you email us.

Security

No system is perfect, but we take this seriously. More detail, including the full list of subprocessors, is on our security page.
