The mic only opens when you press the mic button. Audio is streamed live to our speech-to-text provider (Deepgram or Speechmatics) and discarded after transcription. We do not retain raw audio. We keep the recognized text and the card we generate from it.
To understand how WordZam is used and to fix what’s confusing, we use two levels of analytics. First, WordZam records minimal first-party landing and product events without cookies, using a one-way hashed IP, so we can count visits and understand the basic conversion funnel. Second, we use PostHog, hosted in the EU. With your consent (the banner shown on your first visit) it captures usage events, page views, and session replays of how you interact with the interface; text you type into form fields is masked. Once you sign in, these are linked to your account. You can decline on the banner — if you do, PostHog is not used — and we never use this data to profile you for ads.
Sign in, go to Account, click Delete my account. Your user record, your saved words, your settings, and your subscription record are removed. Stripe records (required for tax / accounting law) are retained per Stripe’s policy.
