Overview
PunjabiSpeechToText.com is designed to help visitors create editable Gurmukhi text from their voice. This policy describes microphone use, transcripts, browser storage, cookies and third-party services. By using the site, you acknowledge the practices described here.
Microphone and transcript data
The tool requests microphone access only after you press the start button and approve the browser permission. Speech recognition is provided through your compatible browser and its speech service. We do not operate that recognition service, receive your raw microphone recording on our own server, or create a user account for your transcript.
Your visible transcript remains in the page while you use the tool. Copying or downloading it is an action you choose. Avoid speaking confidential, financial, medical or other sensitive information into any online recognition service.
Browser storage
We may use local browser storage to remember simple preferences, such as whether you dismissed the cookie notice. This information stays in your browser unless you clear it.
Advertising and cookies
If advertising is enabled, third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on a visitor’s previous visits to this website or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables Google and its partners to serve relevant ads. Third parties may place and read cookies in your browser or use web beacons, IP addresses and other identifiers to collect information as a result of ad serving.
You can manage personalized advertising through Google Ads Settings. Learn more about how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Analytics
We may use privacy-conscious analytics to understand aggregate traffic, device types and page performance. If Google Analytics or a similar service is activated, it may process device information, approximate location derived from IP address and interactions with this site. We do not intentionally ask analytics providers to collect your transcript.
Data sharing and retention
We do not sell personal information. Service providers may process limited technical information needed to deliver, secure, measure or monetize the site. Their handling of data is governed by their own policies. Server security logs, when collected by a hosting provider, may be retained for a limited period for reliability and abuse prevention.

- Decline or revoke microphone access in browser settings.
- Clear cookies and local storage through browser controls.
- Use advertising preference and opt-out tools.

Children’s privacy
This service is intended for a general audience and is not directed specifically to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect children’s personal information through an account system.
Changes and contact
We may revise this policy when the website or applicable requirements change. The updated date will appear above. Questions can be sent through our contact page.
