Security & Trust

Your stories deserve heirloom-grade care.

The recordings you make with Tayle are some of the most personal data you'll ever create — a parent's laugh, a grandparent's accent, a story told in a voice that won't always be here. We treat them accordingly.

Encrypted, end to end of our stack

Every connection to Tayle is TLS. Stories, transcripts, and media are encrypted at rest in our storage layer.

Private by default

Every Tayle starts private. You decide which family members can listen, edit, or contribute — one person at a time.

Never used to train public AI

Your recordings and stories are not used to train general-purpose or third-party AI models. Our vendors are contractually held to the same line.

How we protect your data

We've made deliberate choices about how Tayle is built. Here's what that looks like in practice.

Encryption

All traffic between your device and Tayle uses TLS 1.2 or newer. Recordings, transcripts, photos, videos, and documents are stored encrypted at rest. Backups are encrypted.

Authentication and access

Sign-in is handled by Supabase Auth. Passwords are stored hashed, never in plain text. Access to your account requires your password and is rate-limited against guessing attacks. We recommend choosing a long, unique password and not reusing it elsewhere.

Sharing controls

Every Tayle is private until you decide otherwise. Collaborators are added by invitation. You can change permissions or revoke access at any time. Only you, as the owner of a Tayle, can delete it.

Infrastructure

Tayle runs on audited cloud infrastructure (Supabase for storage and database, Stripe for payments, Vapi for real-time voice AI). Each vendor is bound by a data processing agreement that restricts use of your data to providing services to us. The full list of subprocessors is in the Privacy Policy.

Internal access

Only a small number of Tayle team members can access production systems, and only for support, debugging, and infrastructure operations. Access is role-based and logged. Tayle Concierge team members work with recordings only for the engagement they're staffed on, under written confidentiality.

Backups and durability

Your stories are continuously backed up so a single hardware failure can't lose them. Backups are retained according to the windows in our Privacy Policy and deleted along with the underlying data when you delete an account.

Monitoring

We monitor service health and error rates continuously and review unusual patterns. If we detect a security event that affects your data, we will notify you and any required regulators within the timelines required by law.

Your control

You can export your stories, transcripts, and media at any time. You can delete individual stories, entire Tayles, or your whole account. We honor deletion within the windows described in our Privacy Policy.

AI & voice

A few important things about AI

Responsible disclosure
