- What it is
- The terms of service and privacy policy of 1Transcribe, an app for transcribing files, recording meetings and dictating. Its Data Retention and Deletion section sets out how long uploaded audio and video files, transcripts and dictation are kept, and says transcription partners delete audio after processing.
- How much weight it carries
- The company's own legal page, read on 2026-10-25. It states the company's rules, not an independent audit. The policy is dated only 'Effective Date: 2026', so the retention rules may have changed since it was last revised.
