Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 10, 2026
Voice2Txt is designed with privacy as a core principle. We believe your voice data belongs to you and only you.
Data Collection
We do not collect any personal data. Voice2Txt does not:
- Record, store, or transmit your voice audio
- Collect usage analytics or telemetry
- Require user accounts or registration
- Use cookies or tracking technologies
- Connect to any external servers
Voice Processing
All speech recognition is performed entirely on your device using Apple's built-in Speech Recognition framework (SFSpeechRecognizer). Your audio data is processed locally by macOS and is never sent to our servers — because we don't have any servers involved in the transcription process.
Apple's Speech Recognition
Voice2Txt uses Apple's on-device speech recognition. Apple may process some speech data according to their own privacy policy. We recommend reviewing Apple's Privacy Policy for details on how Apple handles speech recognition data. When available, Voice2Txt uses on-device recognition which keeps all processing local.
Permissions
Voice2Txt requires the following macOS permissions to function:
- Microphone Access — to capture your voice for transcription
- Speech Recognition — to convert speech to text using Apple's framework
- Accessibility — to type transcribed text into the active application
These permissions are managed by macOS and can be revoked at any time in System Settings → Privacy & Security.
Data Storage
Voice2Txt stores only your app preferences (such as selected language and hotkey settings) locally on your Mac using standard macOS UserDefaults. No transcription history is stored.
Third-Party Services
Voice2Txt does not integrate with any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services.
Children's Privacy
Voice2Txt does not knowingly collect any information from children under 13 years of age.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated revision date.
