Privacy at EarScribe

The selected audio is passed to browser audio APIs and a Whisper model running in a Web Worker. EarScribe does not upload that audio to its application server.

Transcript edits may be saved in this browser so they can be restored when you select the same file again. Audio is not included in that saved draft.

The page loads HTML, JavaScript, CSS and fonts or images used by the interface. On first use, the selected Whisper model is downloaded through EarScribe's model proxy and may be cached by the browser.

EarScribe uses Plausible Analytics to understand aggregate visits and real product actions such as selecting a file, starting a transcription, completing it, using subtitle checks and exporting a format.

EarScribe uses Google AdSense to display advertising. Google and its advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to measure ads and, where permitted, personalize them based on visits to this and other sites.

For users in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, the AdSense privacy and consent controls configured in Google's certified consent management flow apply before personalized advertising is served.

Local processing reduces exposure created by uploading recordings to a transcription service, but it does not make the browser, device, extensions, network or downloaded exports automatically secure. Use device and organizational controls appropriate to the sensitivity of the recording.
