Privacy in Parlissima

Last updated: 4 October 2026

This policy covers GrowingSmart's dictation app Parlissima for Mac, and future versions for iPhone. In short: the app does not collect any personal data. Your speech and your text stay on your own device.

Who is responsible

The app is published by GrowingSmart Strandberg Management AB. If you have any questions, email [email protected].

The microphone

The app only uses the microphone when you start a dictation yourself, by clicking the penguin or pressing the dictation key. Speech recognition runs entirely on your device with Klang Pianissimo. No audio is sent to us or to anyone else.

What is stored on your device

  • Recent dictations. Text and audio from your dictations are kept on your device for at most two hours, so you can copy a text again. After that they are deleted automatically. You can delete them at once from the menu.
  • Your vocabulary. Words you add for spelling are saved in a text file on your device.
  • The speech model. Klang's model is stored on your device so the app works offline.

None of this leaves your device, and we have no access to it.

Internet

The app uses the internet only once: to download the speech model from Hugging Face (huggingface.co) the first time you start it. As with any download, Hugging Face sees your IP address. The app sends no data about you or how you use it.

Permissions

On Mac the app asks for Accessibility permission. It is needed for the dictation key to work in every app and for the text to be pasted where your cursor is. The app only checks whether the cursor is in a password field, and in that case never pastes anything. It does not read the content of your other apps. Whatever was on your clipboard is put back after pasting.

What the app never does

  • Collect analytics, statistics or crash reports
  • Require an account or sign-in
  • Show ads or track you across apps and websites
  • Share or sell data to third parties

Your rights

Since the app collects no personal data, we hold no data about you to hand over, correct or delete. Everything the app stores is on your device and is removed when you delete the app. For other questions about personal data, GrowingSmart's privacy policy applies.

Changes

If the app changes in a way that affects your privacy, we will update this page and the date at the top.
