VoxType Privacy Policy
Last updated: 5 August 2026 · Contact: support@voxtype.dibolky.com
VoxType is a voice-dictation keyboard and floating mic button by Dibolky. This policy explains exactly what data the app handles and where it goes. The short version: your typing stays on your device; your voice is sent for transcription only when you tap the mic; we run a zero-log transcription proxy and store no audio.
What the keyboard can see — and what it does with it
As an input method (keyboard), VoxType technically processes the text you type in order to type it. VoxType does not log, store remotely, or transmit your keystrokes. Typed text never leaves your device, with two explicit exceptions you trigger yourself: voice dictation and the optional AI text features described below. Word suggestions and autocorrect run entirely on the device.
Voice recordings
- Audio is recorded only while you are actively dictating (after you tap the mic, until you stop or auto-stop).
- The recording is sent over HTTPS to a speech-to-text provider to be transcribed: either a provider you configured with your own API key (Groq, OpenAI, Sarvam AI, or a custom server), or the built-in VoxType Cloud service.
- VoxType Cloud is a zero-log proxy: audio passes through our server's memory to the transcription provider (Groq) and is never written to disk or stored. We keep only a per-device counter of transcribed seconds to enforce the free daily quota.
- If the history feature is enabled, recordings and transcriptions are saved on your device only, so you can replay or recover them. You can disable history or delete entries at any time in the app.
AI text features (optional)
AI polish, writing modes, and one-tap actions (rephrase, translate, etc.) send the dictated or selected text to a language-model provider (your configured provider, or VoxType Cloud → Groq) to produce the improved text. This happens only when the feature is enabled or tapped. The text is not stored by our server.
Account (optional Google Sign-In)
Signing in is optional and used for subscriptions, redeem codes, and syncing your Pro status across devices. When you sign in with Google we store: your Google account id, your verified email address, and your entitlement (plan and expiry). Session tokens are stored hashed. We do not access your contacts, Drive, or any other Google data. To delete your account data, email us from the signed-in address.
Cloud backup (optional)
Backing up your text history and API keys to your account is off by default. If you turn it on, everything is encrypted on your device before it is uploaded, and stored on our server as ciphertext (never plaintext). So the backup can restore automatically whenever you sign in on a new phone, the encryption key is kept for your account on our server (itself encrypted at rest); this means our servers can technically decrypt your backed-up text, but it is never read, logged, used for advertising, or shared, and it is transmitted only over HTTPS. A "Delete cloud backup" button in the app permanently wipes the server copy — text, keys, and the key — at any time. Voice recordings are never uploaded to backup.
Device identifier & quota
The app generates a random per-install identifier (a UUID). It is not linked to your
identity and is used to meter the free VoxType Cloud quota and rewarded-ad unlocks. If
anonymous diagnostics are enabled, PostHog also receives a stable device identifier based on
Android's ANDROID_ID so reinstall sessions can be counted accurately.
Anonymous diagnostics and product analytics
Diagnostics are enabled by default and can be disabled in Settings → Privacy → Share anonymous diagnostics. When enabled, Sentry may receive crash and ANR reports; PostHog may receive content-free feature events such as onboarding completion, dictation duration, language/engine choice, settings adoption, keyboard usage and ad impressions. The PostHog host is configured for the EU region; Sentry's region follows the DSN configured for the build. We do not send typed or dictated text, screenshots, view hierarchies, clipboard contents or session recordings. Diagnostics are used only to fix bugs and understand feature use.
Ads & purchases
Free users receive 3 minutes of VoxType Cloud dictation per day and can watch rewarded ads for additional temporary access. Pro is available as monthly, annual and lifetime Google Play products. AdMob may process data as described in Google's privacy policy. Purchases and subscriptions are handled by Google Play Billing; we receive a purchase token to verify the purchase but never see your payment details.
Clipboard & GIFs
The keyboard's clipboard panel reads your clipboard history locally to show it to you; it is never uploaded. GIF search queries are proxied through our server to the GIF provider (Klipy or GIPHY) without any account identifier attached.
Accessibility service (floating mic)
The optional floating mic button uses Android's accessibility service for one purpose: inserting your dictated text into the focused text field of other apps. It does not read your screen content, does not collect data from other apps, and is used for no other purpose. It runs only if you enable it in system settings.
What we do NOT do
- No sale or sharing of personal data with third parties for advertising.
- No keystroke logging or remote storage of typed text.
- No storage of your voice recordings on our servers.
- No collection of contacts, location, or browsing history.
Data retention & deletion
On-device data (history, clipboard, settings) is yours: delete it in the app or by uninstalling. Server-side account data (email, entitlement) is kept while your account is active. You can delete your synced data in-app (Profile → Delete cloud backup) and request full account deletion at voxtype.dibolky.com/delete-account. Usage counters reset daily.
Children
VoxType is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect data from them.
Changes
We'll update this page when the policy changes; material changes will be noted in the app's release notes.
