LiveToka – Live Translate & Captions for Any Video by Anders Lee
LiveToka – Privacy Policy for the browser extension
The LiveToka extension creates live captions and translations from the audio of a browser tab. It uses your LiveToka account at livetoka.com. The full LiveToka privacy policy is at https://livetoka.com/privacy.html (section 7.4 covers the extension).
What the extension accesses
- The audio of the tab where you click "Start captions" (or press the shortcut), only while captions are running. In Firefox this is the sound of the video and audio players on that page.
- Your microphone, only if you choose a microphone option.
- The extension shows captions on that tab. It does not read the text of web pages, your browsing history or other tabs.
Where the data goes
- The audio is sent over an encrypted connection to LiveToka (livetoka.com) for real-time speech recognition and translation, using our speech-recognition and translation service providers. The audio is not stored.
- Transcripts and translations are saved to your LiveToka history only while "Save to my LiveToka history" is on. You can delete them on livetoka.com at any time.
- Your account email and remaining minutes are loaded from livetoka.com to show in the extension.
What is stored in your browser
- A sign-in token for your LiveToka account, your extension settings (languages, audio source, caption size and position) and the transcript of the latest session (cleared when the browser closes). Removing the extension deletes them.
Sign-in token
- Created when you connect the extension on livetoka.com. Our server stores it only as a one-way hash. It expires after 90 days without use and is revoked when you click "Sign out" in the extension or "Disconnect all" on the Billing page at livetoka.com.
What we do not do
- We do not sell data, use it for advertising, or use your audio, transcripts or translations to train AI models. The extension contains no analytics or tracking.
