Trust & privacy
Most privacy pages are a list of reassurances you have no way to verify. This one is written to be checked: where a guarantee is real, we say how you can confirm it, and where a product genuinely needs a network or a third party, we name it.
What holds
Transcription, diarization, summaries, search and writing all run on your Mac through Apple Silicon. Recordings are never uploaded, there is no account to create, and unplugging the network changes nothing about what works.
Logue captures system audio directly. Nobody on the call sees a participant they didn't invite, because there isn't one.
Logue is MIT-licensed and the source is public. Privacy claims about an app you cannot inspect are just claims — these ones you can check, or fork.
Meetings, transcripts and audio are encrypted with AES-256-GCM and always stay that way. Documents are too, unless you deliberately turn on plain markdown storage — which trades encryption for ordinary .md files you can edit anywhere, and which Logue explains before enabling.
What doesn't
Every one of these is something a reader might reasonably assume goes the other way. They belong here rather than in a policy nobody opens.
Logue is offline out of the box. Web search sends your search query and nothing else — never a document, a meeting or a transcript. Deep Research does the same, repeatedly. And you may point Logue at an external model instead of the one on your Mac, which does send content to that provider; it is off unless you configure it. Update checks fetch a version file from GitHub. The Chrome extension talks to Logue over your Mac's loopback address, so nothing on that route reaches the network at all.
Aria's whole job is arranging work between you and another person, which means a network and a server. What we commit to instead is narrower and checkable: your payment is held until you approve the finished job, you can keep every booking as something you approve first, and you can clear what Aria remembers about you at any time.
Page views and download clicks, so we can tell which pages are doing their job. It is the one third-party script on the site. Block it and nothing here stops working.
Submissions are delivered through Web3Forms so an email address reaches us without us running a server for it. We ask for your email, your city, and whether you're hiring or working — nothing else.
