This provision discloses that audio recordings of third parties who are not Superhuman users may be captured when a user activates transcription features, raising consent and notice obligations that may vary by jurisdiction.
Interpretive note: The policy does not specify what consent or notice mechanisms are provided to non-user participants before recording begins, creating ambiguity about whether third-party consent obligations under applicable law are operationally satisfied.
The updated policy now discloses that Grammarly collects voice data if you use transcription or Notetaker features, including recordings of other participants, and expands its list of collected content to explicitly include screen content and web pages. For users whose accounts are managed by an organization (employer, school, or other entity), the policy clarifies that Grammarly's privacy terms do not apply to the content you upload or output—your organization's privacy terms govern that data instead. This means organizational account users should review their organization's privacy policies rather than relying on Grammarly's policy to understand how their work or educational data is handled.
