Otter.ai Privacy Policy (effective June 16, 2026), Otter.ai, 2026, Section on aggregated and de-identified data.
Open the original- What it measures
- The clause explains how aggregated or de-identified data stops being covered once it is linked back to a person. It sits beside the policy's use of de-identified audio for training.
- What it does not show
- The clause concerns linking data to a person, not whether the audio itself was recognizably the user's voice. The policy leaves the method of de-identification open.
