Voicenotes

Voicenotes explicitly states that user data is NOT used for AI model training. The privacy policy clearly commits that data sent to OpenAI/Anthropic is not stored or used for training unless users explicitly opt in (which they do not by default), and the company never uses notes for internal model training or research.

“[Privacy] "We do not use your notes or recordings to train any AI models. Data sent to OpenAI or Anthropic via API is not stored or used for training by those providers, unless you explicitly opt in (which we do not)."”

The Terms of Service explicitly state that users retain ownership of all original content posted to Voicenotes. The vendor reserves only the right to remove content for policy violations, not to license or use it for any other purpose. This is a narrow, service-delivery-only license.

“[ToS] "You retain ownership of any original content you post, upload, share, store, or otherwise provide to Voicenotes. Your content is protected by copyright and other applicable intellectual property laws."”

Voicenotes shares data with essential service providers (OpenAI, Anthropic for AI processing; AWS for hosting; analytics and marketing partners) but explicitly states it does not share with advertisers or unauthorized third parties. However, the specific DPA terms with sub-processors and the exact scope of 'marketing services' sharing are not detailed, creating moderate ambiguity.

“[Privacy] "Service Providers: We partner with trusted companies for hosting, customer support, analytics, and marketing services, but only share what's necessary to offer you those services. We don't share your data with advertisers or unauthorized third parties."”

Voicenotes provides explicit, clear data retention and deletion policies. When users delete a note, it is instantly and permanently deleted with no backup retained. There is no retention period stated, and the company commits to immediate purge on deletion.

“[Privacy] "When you delete a note (voice or text), it is instantly and permanently deleted from our systems, with no backup retained. There is no retention period—once you delete, it's gone for good."”

The Terms of Service unambiguously state that users retain ownership of all original content. Voicenotes claims no rights to user-generated outputs and does not assert any license to generated content for reuse or sublicensing.

“[ToS] "You retain ownership of any original content you post, upload, share, store, or otherwise provide to Voicenotes. Your content is protected by copyright and other applicable intellectual property laws."”

Voicenotes claims GDPR compliance and states it is 'currently undergoing SOC 2 certification with Vanta,' but SOC 2 Type II certification is not yet complete. The company mentions regular third-party audits but does not provide published security documentation or a trust page. GDPR representatives are appointed, showing some compliance infrastructure.

“[Privacy] "Voicenotes is fully GDPR compliant. We are currently undergoing SOC 2 certification with Vanta. Regular third-party audits and compliance checks are performed to ensure your data remains protected."”
