What happens to the data

Deletion applies on all your devices and cannot be undone. Together with the recording, its text, notes, flashcards, quizzes and translations are deleted, and the uploaded file is removed from our server.

What deletion does not do

The copy that a third-party transcription service received stays with it for its own period — see the privacy policy. You cannot delete only the audio and keep the text by hand. To remove everything, delete the account.
