What is processed in the cloud?
Whispek sends recorded speech for speech recognition. Text cleanup processes the text needed to prepare the result. When you submit an assistant question, the messages and references needed for that answer are sent for processing.
These features require an internet connection and involve Whispek and its processing providers. Whispek is not presented as an offline recognition app or an end-to-end encrypted processing service.
What is saved on your computer?
Voice history can store recordings, transcripts and cleaned text locally. Assistant conversations, drafts and references also have local storage. Signing in on another computer does not transfer that history.
Voice history defaults to 50 retained records. You can change its retention count or clear it. Protect the computer and operating-system account that hold the history; local storage is not described as an independently encrypted vault.
How does dictionary learning differ?
The personal dictionary is associated with your account. Cloud learning is enabled by default and can send dictation and edit information, application context and related metadata to suggest reusable terms.
You can turn cloud learning off in dictionary settings. That stops new learning uploads while allowing manual dictionary management and use of existing hotwords. It does not turn cloud speech recognition into local processing.
What if I add a document or image to the assistant?
Supported documents are read locally to extract text; the text included with a submitted request is sent for the answer. Selected images can also be processed and sent with the request. Adding a reference is a reason to review its contents before submitting.
Document text extraction is not a promise to understand every file. For example, a scanned PDF without a text layer may not provide usable text.
Deleting one kind of data does not delete everything
Clearing voice history, deleting an assistant conversation, switching off dictionary learning and revoking a device session have different effects. Local deletion does not itself erase account, billing or operational records.

Before submitting sensitive material
Check whether you are allowed to send it to the processing services involved. If your organization requires a specific location, retention agreement or security assessment, confirm that requirement before use. Changing the website language does not choose a processing country.
