Privacy Policy

The shortest privacy policy you'll ever read.

🎯 TL;DR

We don't track you. We don't have servers. We don't store your data. Your transcriptions go directly to OpenAI. That's it.

What we collect

Nothing. Zero. Nada. Zilch.

No analytics. No telemetry. No crash reports. No usage stats. We literally don't know you exist unless you email us.

What happens to your audio

We're just a pipe between your microphone and OpenAI. We don't touch, store, or look at your data.

What OpenAI sees

Your audio files when you transcribe. That's between you and them. Check out OpenAI's privacy policy if you care about that stuff.

Your API key

Stored in macOS Keychain. That's Apple's encrypted vault. We can't see it. Nobody can see it except your Mac.

Network connections

WhisperBar only talks to:

That's it. No secret connections. No phoning home. Check it yourself with Little Snitch if you don't trust us.

App permissions

WhisperBar needs:

We don't ask for anything else. No contacts. No calendar. No file system access. No accessibility permissions.

If you uninstall

Everything's gone. No traces. No leftover files. No "phone home to say goodbye" BS.

Changes to this policy

If we ever change this (we won't), we'll update this page. Check the date at the bottom.
