Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026

Overview

Dictify is designed with privacy as a core principle. All speech-to-text processing happens locally on your device. We never receive, store, or process your audio data.

• Email address
• Hashed password (we cannot see your password)
• Account creation date

Desktop Application

• Audio data: Processed entirely on your device. Never sent to any server. Audio is held in memory only during transcription and immediately discarded.
• Transcription results: Remain on your device. Not logged or transmitted.
• Configuration: Stored locally at ~/.config/glace/config.json.
• Logs: Stored locally at ~/.local/share/glace/logs/. Contain operational information only, never audio or transcription content.

What We Don't Collect

• Audio recordings
• Transcribed text
• Keystrokes
• Screen content
• Usage analytics or telemetry
• Device identifiers

Third-Party Services

The Whisper AI model is downloaded from OpenAI's public model hosting on first use. This is a one-time download. After that, the model runs entirely offline.

Data Security

Passwords are hashed using bcrypt with a cost factor of 12. Sessions use encrypted JWT tokens. The website enforces HTTPS with HSTS headers.

Data Deletion

You can delete your account at any time from your dashboard. This permanently removes all your data from our servers. Local app data can be removed by deleting ~/.config/glace/ and ~/.local/share/glace/.

Changes to This Policy

We will notify registered users of any material changes to this privacy policy via email.
