Voice cloning consent and your rights
A voice clone should only be made with the clear agreement of the person whose voice it is. This page sums up what Windy has already published about consent and your recordings. It is a summary: the Terms and the Privacy Policy linked below are what count. This page does not ask you to agree to anything: consent to a voice clone is given separately, by you, when ordering opens.
A voice model of you is a separate choice
The Windy Word Terms of Service, which cover your Windy account, say that if Windy offers a feature built from your own recordings, for example a voice or likeness model of you, it will be something you choose, described to you before you choose it, and separately consented to. Turning such a feature down does not affect your free local licence for Windy Word.
Recording laws, and other people's voices
You are responsible for having the rights you need in anything you record or process, and for following the laws where you are. Recording laws differ from place to place, and some require the consent of everyone being recorded. You may not use Windy to process content you have no right to process, or to record people where recording them is unlawful.
What Windy does and does not do with your recordings
Windy does not use your content to train or improve its engines, and will not start doing so without asking you first. If you choose to donate recordings to the Windy Voice Project in Windy Word, they are used to train and test Windy's own speech models, but Windy does not use them to identify you or to make a voice of you.
Where your recordings are
Unless you turn on a cloud feature, Windy Word saves your recordings on your own computer. Voice samples recorded in Manage Voice Clones in earlier versions of Windy Word also stay on your computer. Windy Clone does not accept voice uploads yet.
Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, port, restrict or object to the processing of your personal data, to withdraw consent, and to complain to a supervisory authority. If you delete your Windy account, Windy Clone locks your voice data at once and erases it 30 days later, unless you undo the delete by signing in again before then.
