Talk‑si listens to speech and shows live captions and translations. This page explains how your data is handled: what is stored, what is only sent for processing, and who else can see it.
Who is responsible
Talk‑si is run by the people who operate talk-si.com. To ask about your data or have it deleted, email the address at the bottom of this page.
What is stored about you
We store your email address, which you use to sign in; a display name, if you set one; the language you read; the language spoken around you; your prepaid balance; and the history of changes to that balance. We do not ask for anything else, and you do not need a password to sign in.
What happens to your speech
During a session, audio from your microphone is sent to our speech provider, Soniox. Soniox turns the speech into text and translates it. Neither we nor anyone working for us records or stores the audio. It exists only until it has been turned into text, and is then deleted.
Transcripts
The returned text is stored so you can read the session again later. A transcript can be seen by the people who were in that session. You can ask us to delete it.
Payments
No payment company is involved. To add money to your balance, transfer it yourself and upload a photo of the receipt. Staff review the photo to confirm the payment. The photo, amount, and note you wrote are stored with your account as a payment record. Card numbers are never entered into or stored by Talk‑si.
Signing in with Google
If you sign in with Google, Talk‑si asks Google only to confirm that the account exists and provide its email address. Talk‑si receives nothing else. It cannot read your email, contacts, or files.
Who else sees your data
Soniox sees the audio only for the few seconds needed to turn speech into text. Nobody else sees your data. It is not sold, used for advertising, or given to anyone for their own purposes.
How long your data is stored
Your account and its records are stored while the account exists. Audio is never stored. If you close the account, everything else is deleted, except a payment record may be kept long enough to resolve a dispute about that payment.
What you can ask for
You can ask for a copy of your stored data, a correction if something is wrong, or deletion. Write to the address below and state what you want us to do.
Changes to this page
If how we use your data changes, we will update this page and the date at the top.
