Privacy Policy - Transcriber for WhatsApp, Mirko Dimartino, Mirko Dimartino, 2026, Section 1a, Audio Files and Transcriptions (Core Functionality).
Open the original- What it measures
- The policy covers the Android app Transcriber for WhatsApp, which transcribes audio files shared from messaging apps. It says the speech-to-text processing is not performed locally: audio is sent to Wit.ai, a service provided by Meta Platforms, Inc., before the text is returned to the device.
- What it does not show
- The sentence describes what the app itself keeps. It does not say how long Wit.ai keeps the audio it receives, and the policy refers to Wit.ai's own privacy policy for that. The policy says audio is anonymized before it is sent. It does not say whether people review audio or transcripts.
