Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 15, 2025
🔒 Privacy First
Voxtype is designed with privacy as our top priority. All voice processing happens locally on your Mac. We don't collect, store, or transmit your voice recordings or transcribed text.
Information We Don't Collect
Voxtype operates entirely on your device. We do not collect, store, or have access to:
- Your voice recordings
- Transcribed text content
- Audio data of any kind
- Personal information or documents
- Usage patterns or analytics
- Device information beyond basic system compatibility
How Voxtype Works
Voxtype uses Apple's built-in Speech Recognition framework, which processes your voice entirely on your Mac. The process works as follows:
- You press Command+J to start recording
- Your voice is captured by your Mac's microphone
- Apple's Speech framework converts speech to text locally
- The text is inserted into your currently focused application
- No data is sent to external servers or services
Data Storage
Voxtype does not store any voice recordings or transcribed text. All processing is temporary and happens in your device's memory. Once text is inserted into your target application, Voxtype retains no record of the content.
Permissions
Voxtype requires the following permissions to function:
- Microphone Access: To capture your voice for transcription
- Accessibility Permissions: To insert text into other applications
- Speech Recognition: To convert your voice to text using Apple's framework
These permissions are used solely for the app's core functionality and are not used to collect or transmit data.
Third-Party Services
Voxtype does not integrate with any third-party analytics, advertising, or data collection services. The app operates independently using only Apple's built-in system frameworks.
Updates to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Since Voxtype doesn't collect data, changes will primarily relate to clarifications or new features that maintain our privacy-first approach.
