Privacy Policy
Voicecape is built so that the sensitive part — your voice — never has to leave your device. This page describes exactly what does leave, and why.
What never leaves your device
There is no cloud transcription service behind Voicecape, so there is nowhere for this data to be uploaded. You can confirm this yourself with a network monitor such as Little Snitch or LuLu on macOS, or Resource Monitor on Windows — and dictation works with the device in airplane mode.
- Audio captured while you dictate. It is processed in memory and discarded.
- The recognized text, and the cleaned result inserted at your cursor.
- Your personal dictionary and your settings.
- Your dictation history, if you turn it on. It is off by default.
What the app does send, and when
The app lists its network activity in its own settings. If we ever add a network call, it appears there and in the release notes.
- Licence activation and validation: your licence key, the email address used at purchase, and a device identifier. This is what lets one purchase work across your devices, and it is the only routine network call the app makes.
- Model downloads: a request for the speech model file you chose. It contains no personal data.
- Update checks: the current app version, so we can tell you a newer one exists.
- Crash and error reports: only if you opt in, and never containing dictated text or audio.
What this website collects
This site uses no advertising trackers, no session recording, and no cross-site profiling. Aggregate, cookieless analytics may be used to count page visits; it does not identify you and sets no cookies for that purpose.
If you email us, we hold that email so we can answer it.
Payments
Purchases are handled by Polar Software, Inc. (Polar) as merchant of record. Card details are entered on Polar’s systems and are never seen by us. We receive the information needed to issue and support your licence — typically your email address, order reference and country for tax purposes.
How long we keep things
- Licence records: for as long as the licence exists, plus the period required by tax and accounting law.
- Support email: up to 3 years, so we can follow up on an earlier problem.
- Opt-in diagnostics: up to 90 days.
Sharing
We do not sell personal data, and we do not share it for advertising. We use a small number of processors to run the service — payment processing, email, file hosting for downloads — and they may only act on our instructions.
Your rights
You can ask us for a copy of the personal data we hold about you, ask us to correct it, ask us to delete it, or object to a particular use. Write to [email protected] and we will respond within 30 days.
Because dictation data never reaches us, a deletion request covers your licence and support records — the dictation itself is deleted by you, on your device, whenever you choose.
Children
Voicecape is not directed at children under 14, and we do not knowingly collect their personal data.
