Open the original- What it measures
- Covers dictation with the desktop app's floating button and with the Chrome extension. The policy says the extension does not send webpage URLs, page content or existing field text to the company, its transcription provider or analytics providers.
- What it does not show
- Nothing is kept, so the policy gives no period in days. A recording interrupted by the Chrome paywall may stay only in the extension's memory for a bounded retry, cleared after completion, cancellation or when the extension closes. The same policy says humans do not read private content except with consent for support, for security or when required by law. That is not written as a review rule here.
