Privacy
Your audio and video files are processed entirely inside your browser. They are never uploaded to us or anyone else.
What happens to your files
Files you choose are read by this page on your device and transcribed there. The transcript exists only in your browser tab until you copy or download it. Closing the tab discards it.
What is downloaded
The site's pages and code come from our server. The speech engine is downloaded once from a third-party file host, which, like any website, receives your IP address and browser details for that download. Your browser then keeps it so it does not need to download it again.
What is stored on your device
The page keeps a small note in your browser's local storage with the result of the device speed check (for example, which quality suits your computer) so it does not need to repeat it. It contains no personal information and never leaves your device. You can clear it, and the downloaded speech engine, by clearing this site's data in your browser settings.
What we do not do
No account, no tracking cookies, no advertising profiles, and no access to the content of your recordings or transcripts.
