Terms of Service

Last updated: October 2025

Agreement to Terms

By using Dictator, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't use the app. It's that simple.

What Dictator Does

Dictator is a desktop application that transcribes audio using local AI models. All processing happens on your device - no cloud, no uploads, no data collection.

Your Responsibilities

  • Use the app in compliance with applicable laws and regulations
  • Don't use the app for illegal activities
  • Respect the privacy of others when recording
  • Keep your app updated for security and performance

Intellectual Property

Dictator and its software are our intellectual property. You get a license to use the app, not ownership of it. Your data remains yours.

Limitation of Liability

Since all processing happens locally on your device, we can't be responsible for data loss, transcription errors, or other issues that arise from local processing. Use the app responsibly and keep backups of important data.

Privacy

Your privacy is important to us. See our Privacy Policy for details on how we handle your data (spoiler: we don't collect much because everything happens locally).

Termination

You can stop using Dictator anytime. We can stop providing the service with reasonable notice. Since everything is local, stopping the service doesn't affect your existing application.

Changes to Terms

We may update these terms occasionally. We'll notify users of significant changes. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance of the new terms.

TL;DR

Use Dictator responsibly, don't do anything illegal. Your data stays on your device, so you're responsible for it. We're not liable for local processing issues.
