Voqilo privacy policy
Last updated:
If the English and Vietnamese versions differ, the English version applies.
1. Scope
This page summarizes the privacy part of the Voqilo End User License Agreement and Privacy Policy. The full agreement is shown when you install and first open Voqilo.
2. What Voqilo does
Voqilo listens to the audio your computer plays, such as other people in an online meeting, and shows live subtitles. It does not join meetings, does not connect to meeting platforms and does not use your microphone.
3. Audio stays on your computer
- Audio is processed in memory and discarded right after it becomes text. It is never saved, uploaded or sent.
- Transcripts and subtitles live in memory only and disappear when you clear the conversation or close the app.
- No server, no cloud AI, no login, account, password or email.
- No usage statistics, crash reports or analytics, sent to ByteTCore or anyone else.
4. When Voqilo goes online
| You click | Downloads from | Checked by |
|---|---|---|
| Download a speech model | huggingface.co (ggerganov/whisper.cpp) | Fixed HTTPS address + SHA-256 |
| Download the Vulkan runtime | sdk.lunarg.com | Fixed HTTPS address + SHA-256 |
| Update GPU driver | Driver maker’s page, in your browser | Voqilo sends nothing |
These sites may log your download request, such as your IP address, under their own privacy policies.
5. What Voqilo stores
| Data | Where | Protection |
|---|---|---|
| Settings | config folder next to the app | AES-256-GCM; key in Windows Credential Manager |
| Speech models you downloaded | models folder | — |
| Vulkan runtime copy, if downloaded | vulkan folder | — |
| Which Settings sections are collapsed | App’s local browser storage | View preference only |
6. Cookies
Voqilo sets no cookies and uses no tracking identifiers. The only item in the app’s local storage records which Settings sections you collapsed. Driver pages you open load in your own browser under that site’s cookie policy.
7. Other people in your meetings
Voqilo turns other people’s speech into text. Many laws regulate listening to, recording or transcribing conversations. You are responsible for telling the people in your meetings, getting any consent the law or your organization requires, and following your meeting platform’s rules. Do not use Voqilo on conversations you are not allowed to hear.
8. Accuracy
Subtitles and translations are produced by machine-learning models and can be incomplete or wrong. Do not rely on them for legal, medical, financial or safety decisions.
9. Deleting data
- Delete speech models in Settings at any time.
- Uninstalling removes the app and your settings file. Delete the program folder yourself if downloaded files remain.
- The settings key stays in Windows Credential Manager until you remove it there.
10. Third-party components
- whisper.cpp and OpenAI Whisper models (MIT).
- Vulkan loader by Khronos Group / LunarG (Apache-2.0).
- Tauri (MIT or Apache-2.0) and other open-source libraries under their own licences.
