Privacy
Live Captions is built for events where the audio may be confidential. The default path keeps audio on the device.
Audio
Microphone audio is processed locally by the Whisper model in your browser. It is not uploaded to our servers. We do not record or store raw audio.
Transcripts
Final transcript segments are stored in your account so you can export them after the event. Partial hypotheses are not stored long-term. You can delete a transcript from the dashboard or the transcript page, which removes its segments.
Translation
Translation is optional. When you enable it, the text of stable caption units is sent to the translation provider so it can be translated. No audio is sent. The provider is named in the app when translation is active.
Analytics
We record anonymous product events such as session started, export type and browser capability. We do not send transcript text, microphone audio or event metadata to analytics. The viewer page is public to anyone with the session link; the link is a short-lived capability token.
Your controls
You can delete a session and its transcript at any time. To delete your account and all associated data, contact support. We will confirm when it is done.
