Read the originalRead on October 25, 2026
- What it is
- The privacy policy of sideOS, a Mac assistant that does dictation, meeting recording and transcription, made by Stockimg AI, Inc. The page states it was last updated on 23 October 2026 and lists what stays on the Mac, what goes to the chosen AI provider, and how long each kind of record is kept.
- How much weight it carries
- The company's own policy, the primary source for what the company itself keeps and who sees it. It describes its own data flows and gives no independent check. Its claims about what stays on the Mac are the company's statements about its own design. Records sent to the AI provider are governed by that provider's policy, which is not part of this source.
