How do you guys at Deepgram deal with the data provided by users? Is there any document describing it?

I'd be curious to know where to look for any data retention policies concerning those of accidental streaming transcriptions when someone forgot to turn off their mic.

I want to understand if you guys store this kind of information that is given by your users (input audio). If it's stored, how you manage to keep it safe from public access. And if, for some reason, this data leak, what you guys will do, for example, alert people contacting through e-mail.
