# Security

Your recordings are business records: customer conversations, research data, meetings you can't
repeat. Speak AI treats them that way. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest
, access is controlled at the [team level](/help/teams/permissions/),
and deletion is yours to control: files you delete enter a 7-day recovery window, then are
permanently removed {/* fact:security.deletion */}.

Speak AI has served research teams, healthcare organizations, and enterprises since 2018;
250,000+ people and teams use it, rated 4.9 on G2.

## The questions security reviews ask

**Where does my data live, and who can see it?** Your workspace's data is isolated to your
account; inside it, [groups and permissions](/help/teams/permissions/) control which teammates see
which folders.

**Is my data used to train AI models?** See the [third-party data privacy policy](/help/security/policies/third-party-data-privacy/)
for the contractual position on sub-processors and data use.

**Can I redact sensitive content?** Exports can redact names, emails, locations, brands, and
dates. *(Language coverage documented after middleware verification.)*

**What happens when I delete data?** [Data deletion](/help/account/data-deletion/): 7-day soft
delete, then permanent removal.

## The policy library

The complete set of 41 security, privacy, and governance policies is published and searchable:
[Policies](/help/security/policies/). Encryption, access management, incident response, business
continuity, retention, and the corporate policies procurement asks for.
