What data we collect and why

Account data

Your name, email address, hashed password, subscription status, and a monthly note usage counter. Lawful basis: contract (Article 6(1)(b) UK GDPR).

Voice memos (transient)

Audio you record or upload is sent directly to OpenAI Whisper for transcription and deleted immediately afterwards. It is never written to our database. Lawful basis: contract; legitimate interest in providing the service.

Transcripts (transient)

The text transcript is passed to our AI note-generation service and then discarded. It is never stored by Noted. Noted does not have access to the content of transcripts after they are processed.

Generated notes

Notes are streamed to your screen only. Noted does not store, retain, or have access to the content of any generated clinical note.

Special category data

Voice memos and transcripts may contain health-related information about your clients, which constitutes special category data under Article 9 UK GDPR. This data is processed transiently and solely to provide the transcription and note-generation service. It is not retained, profiled, or used for any other purpose.

You, as a therapist, are the data controller for your clients' personal data. Noted acts as a data processor on your behalf. By using Noted, you confirm you have an appropriate lawful basis (such as legitimate professional purpose) to process your clients' data in this way.
