Pairot and Privacy

Freddy van Geel

A lot of our customers are thinking about privacy when using search related products like Amazon Alexa, Apple’s Siri or Google’s Home.
This is what the different company’s say about privacy themselves:

Amazon:
3.1 Information. The Software will provide Amazon with information about your use of Alexa, your Alexa Interactions, and your Alexa Enabled Products and Auxiliary Products (such as device type, name, features, status, network connectivity, and location). This information may be stored on servers outside the country in which you live. We will handle any information we receive in accordance with the Amazon.com Privacy Notice .

Apple:
The longer you use Siri and Dictation, the better they understand you and improve. To help them recognize your pronunciation and provide better responses, certain information such as your name, contacts, music you listen to, and searches is sent to Apple servers using encrypted protocols. Siri and Dictation do not associate this information with your Apple ID, but rather with your device through a random identifier.

Google:
If you have opted to share information with Google, Google uses that information, along with your Google history, to better assist you with customizations like your name and interests.
