Privacy Policy

Effective Date: January 2026

At Spoken, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your data when you use the Spoken application for Windows.

Core Principle: Your Audio Stays Local

Spoken is designed with privacy as a priority. All speech-to-text processing is performed locally on your device. We do not upload your audio recordings to the cloud for transcription.

1. Data Processing

  • Local Processing: All speech recognition and transcription happen directly on your personal computer using local AI models.
  • No Cloud Uploads: Your voice recordings are not sent to Spoken servers or third-party cloud services for processing.
  • Real-time Usage: Audio is processed in real-time buffers and is not permanently stored by the application unless you actively choose to save it (if such features are available).

2. Information Collection

We collect minimal data necessary for the operation of the software:

  • Model Downloads: When you download speech models (e.g., Tiny, Base), the application connects to public repositories (like Hugging Face) to fetch these files.
  • Updates: The application may check for updates to ensure you have the latest features and security fixes.
  • License Validation: We may verify your license key to validate your purchase.

3. Personal Information

We do not collect personal usage data, keystrokes, or transcript contents. Your transcribed text remains on your clipboard or in the application where you paste it.

4. Payment Information

All payments are processed securely through established third-party payment providers (e.g., PayPal). Spoken does not store your credit card details or financial information.
