Explicit Consent Text
Operations that need no consent
Your account, goals, check-ins, subscription and the transfer abroad for AI assessment rely not on explicit consent but on performance of a contract (KVKK Art. 5(2)(c), GDPR Art. 6(1)(b)). No consent is asked for these.
Why not consent: Demostra's core undertaking is to assess your explanation, and that assessment cannot be produced without sending text to the AI provider. The transfer is therefore not an option within the service — it is the service. Tying such an operation to consent would be wrong twice over:
- The consent would be invalid. KVKK requires explicit consent to be given by free will; conditioning access to a service on consent vitiates it. The Board established exactly this against a private health institution in decision 2023/692 of 2 May 2023 and imposed sanctions.
- It would be worse for you. An invalid consent means the transfer has no legal basis at all — worse than never asking.
So the transfer is disclosed as part of the Terms of Service. If you do not accept the Terms, no account is created — that is not forced consent but the ordinary consequence of no contract being formed. We hide nothing about it: Privacy Notice §3 names the transfer, the recipient, the country and the risks.
The appropriate safeguard route for this transfer — a standard contract — requires the provider's signature, and that signature has not been obtained yet. Nor is there any country for which the Board has issued an adequacy decision. Detail: Privacy Notice §3.
The one operation that needs consent
Sharing dictation corrections
When you correct a term the speech recogniser misheard, you may agree to share only the misheard phrase → correct term pair. The sentence you spoke is not sent.
This is genuinely optional: it is not needed for the service to work, which is why it can rest on consent and is off by default. Refusing it affects no feature of the app.
It stays linked to your account for 30 days; if you withdraw consent within that window or delete your account, the contributions are deleted too. Withdraw at Settings → Data.
Consent is not a condition of service
KVKK requires explicit consent to be given by free will. The single consent on this page (dictation corrections) is not a condition of any feature. Accordingly:
- Refusing the dictation consent affects neither your account nor any feature.
- Withdrawing consent does not close your account.
- You are not asked to approve having read the privacy notice.
- Accepting the Terms of Service is required — but that is contract formation, not a consent.
Scope of consent
The consent you give is limited to the purposes listed above. Data transferred under it:
- Is not used for advertising or marketing
- Is not sold to third parties or passed to data brokers
- Is not used to train the provider's models — under the provider's published policy, API inputs and outputs are not used for model training by default
- If a new purpose arises, consent is asked again and separately — no “blanket consent” is taken
