Data protection & hosting

nFADP and GDPR compliant, flexible hosting in Switzerland

Data protection

Your recordings stay yours.

Where is the data processed? Exclusively in Switzerland

The service runs at Infomaniak in Switzerland. Audio and transcripts never leave Switzerland; we guarantee this contractually in our terms and the DPA.

Are audio and transcripts stored? Only for processing

When you use the API, audio is deleted right after transcription and the transcript right after it is retrieved. With on-premises, the data never leaves your network.

nFADP, GDPR, DPA? nFADP and GDPR compliant, the DPA is part of the contract

You are the controller; we are the processor and act only on your instructions. The data processing agreement (DPA) is part of every customer contract.

Is customer data used for training? No

We never use recordings or transcripts for our own purposes or to train or improve our models.

A data processing agreement (DPA) template is available as a PDF.
