Encrypted transcripts
Stored transcript content is encrypted at rest by the application.
Security & privacy
Meeting context deserves deliberate protection.
WhyBecause combines workspace permissions, encrypted transcript storage, retention controls and source-aware access across the product.
The problem
A transcript can contain far more than ordinary meeting notes.
It may include personal data, strategic discussions and confidential operational detail. Security must apply to storage, access and retention.
Scoped access
Organization roles and workspace membership constrain access.
Retention by plan
Transcript availability follows the applicable retention policy.
Workflow
Protection throughout the transcript lifecycle
01
Ingest
Validate requests and avoid persisting uploaded files themselves.
02
Store
Encrypt retained transcript content before database storage.
03
Expire
Apply retention jobs and remove transcript content when due.
