Privacy Policy

We do not collect your data. Here is the formal version of that promise.

Effective Date: April 29, 2026  |  Last Updated: April 29, 2026

The Short Version

TypeSay does not collect, store, transmit, or process any personal data. Your audio is transcribed locally on your machine and never leaves your device. There are no accounts, no analytics, no telemetry, and no tracking of any kind.

1. Information We Do Not Collect

TypeSay does not collect:

  • Audio recordings or transcriptions
  • Personal information (name, email, phone, address)
  • Usage data or analytics
  • Device identifiers or hardware information
  • IP addresses or location data
  • Cookies or tracking pixels

2. How TypeSay Works

TypeSay runs entirely on your local machine. When you activate the push-to-talk hotkey, your microphone audio is captured by the application, processed through the Whisper AI model running locally, and the resulting text is inserted into your currently focused application. The audio buffer is held in memory only for the duration of transcription and is discarded immediately afterward. Nothing is written to disk. Nothing is transmitted over the network.

3. Network Activity

TypeSay makes network requests only in two specific scenarios:

  • Model Download: When you first select a Whisper model, it is downloaded from HuggingFace. This is a one-time download. After the model is stored locally, no further network activity occurs.
  • OpenAI API (Optional): If you choose to use the optional OpenAI cloud provider instead of the local Whisper engine, your audio will be sent to OpenAI's servers. This is an opt-in feature and is disabled by default. When using the local provider (default), no audio data ever leaves your device.

4. Third-Party Services

TypeSay does not integrate with any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services. There are no embedded SDKs, no crash reporting tools, and no data brokers involved in the application.

5. Open Source Verification

TypeSay is open source under the MIT license. You can audit the entire codebase to verify that no data collection occurs. The source code is available at github.com/bgalvan1277/TypeSay-Website.

6. This Website

The TypeSay website (typesay.app) is a static HTML site. It does not use cookies, does not run analytics scripts, and does not collect visitor data. If you contact us via the contact form, the information you provide (name, email, message) is used solely to respond to your inquiry and is not shared with any third party.

7. Changes to This Policy

If we update this privacy policy, we will post the changes on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date. Given that TypeSay's core architecture is built around not collecting data, we do not anticipate significant changes to this policy.
