How recording works
Inlocus does not send a bot to your meeting. We are a browser extension that runs in the same Chromium tab as your Google Meet call. When recording is enabled, the extension captures the meeting's audio stream locally on your device and uploads it over an encrypted channel to our processing infrastructure.
Because there is no third-party participant, your attendees never see "Inlocus has joined." Recording state is visible only to you, in the extension popup.
Data we store
For every meeting you record, we store:
- The audio file — used to generate a transcript, then optionally retained per your retention policy.
- The transcript — text version of the audio, used to draft action items.
- Drafted tasks — the action items we generate, including any edits you make before approving.
- Meeting metadata — title, date, duration, attendees (from your calendar, if connected), and the IDs of the Asana tasks we sync.
We do not store video. We do not store the contents of any other browser tab. We do not have access to anything outside the Meet tab.
Encryption
All data in transit is encrypted with TLS 1.2 or higher. All data at rest — audio, transcripts, drafted tasks — is encrypted with AES-256. Our infrastructure runs on Google Cloud Platform in us-central1 and europe-west1; you can choose your region during workspace setup.
Retention & deletion
Workspace admins set a default retention window. Options are 7, 30, or 90 days, or delete-after-each-meeting (recording and transcript discarded as soon as drafts are produced).
Individual users can override the default for any specific meeting from the meeting detail page. Deleting a meeting purges the audio and transcript from primary storage immediately and from encrypted backups within 30 days.
Approved Asana tasks are not deleted from Asana when the source meeting is deleted — those live in your Asana workspace, where you control them.
Access controls
Workspace admins control who has access to recordings and transcripts. By default, a meeting is visible only to the user who recorded it; admins can choose to make meetings visible to all members of the workspace or scope them to specific Asana projects.
Single sign-on (SSO) via Google Workspace is available on every plan. SAML SSO and SCIM provisioning are available on the Team / Enterprise tier.
No AI training
We do not train AI models on your meeting content. Period. No audio, transcript, or drafted task from your workspace is used to train, fine-tune, or evaluate any model — ours or a vendor's.
We use third-party model providers to run transcription and task drafting. Those vendors are contractually bound under our data-processing agreements to not retain or train on the content we send them. The current list is in Sub-processors below.
Consent & opt-outs
You are responsible for getting consent from meeting attendees before recording — laws vary by jurisdiction. Inlocus provides tools to help:
- Calendar pre-notice — admins can configure an automatic line in calendar invites announcing that the meeting may be recorded.
- Per-attendee opt-out — any attendee can email us to request their voice be excluded from a specific recording or globally.
- Pause — recording can be paused at any time from the extension popup, with a one-click resume.
Sub-processors
We work with a small set of vetted infrastructure providers:
- Google Cloud Platform — primary hosting and storage.
- OpenAI — transcription and task drafting (zero-retention API).
- Stripe — billing.
- Postmark — transactional email.
This list is the complete set of vendors with access to customer content. We notify customers in advance of any change.
