"
When you utilize the speech-to-text and content summary features, your audio input will be uploaded to our cloud for processing. If you utilize the Speaker Identification feature, we will analyze the voice characteristics to distinguish between different speakers. This allows us to generate transcripts and summaries that accurately attribute text to the specific speaker identities you have marked. Generally, audio and transcription data are promptly deleted from our cloud servers immediately after the transcription process is complete. However, to prevent data loss due to network instability or app closure (to ensure you do not lose your transcription credits), any unretrieved files (including audio and transcription results) will be temporarily stored in an encrypted format for a maximum of 7 days.
