- What it is
- Nuance's privacy statement says it may capture the voice and words a user speaks into its voice recognition products, and that snippets of voice data may be manually reviewed to build, train and improve its automated methods.
- How much weight it carries
- The company's own statement, but it covers Nuance voice products in general, not Dragon Professional specifically, and it uses "may" rather than describing a fixed practice. Read it with the product's own settings.
