[Revised August 8, 2023]
To address the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we have updated our privacy policy to reinforce our commitment to the privacy and security of user data.
At GMR Transcription, we believe in putting customer experience and satisfaction above everything else. Keeping these in mind, we have made a few updates to our Privacy Policy to make it easier for you to understand what information we collect from you, why we collect it, and how we use it. We have also taken necessary steps to improve our Privacy Checkup and other controls we provide to safeguard your data and protect your privacy.
While your current settings, interface, or how your information is processed will remain unchanged, we have gone a step further by improving the way we describe our practices and offering clarity in explaining the options you have for updating, managing, exporting, and deleting your data.
We encourage you to read on so you are fully aware of the changes. These updates give you more control over your personal information, support new data protection laws in the European Union, i.e., the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and allow you to make more informed privacy choices when you interact with us.
To become a GMR Transcription user, you must first register on our website. We collect information from you during this signup process. While registering on our website, as appropriate, you may be asked to enter your: name, email address, phone number, contact information, and credit card information (for verification purposes).
After registration, you may provide additional information to your profile. Providing additional information beyond what is required at registration is entirely optional but enables you to better understand our interface and makes placing orders easier. We keep the data that you provide until you delete it from your account. You can request us to close/delete it for you anytime. We offer users the ability to edit/modify/delete all the data that is there in our system. This is subject to legal, contractual, and technical limitations. You can ask us to stop using any or all personal data. Additionally, you may request a copy of all your personal data that you have provided us to build your profile.
We only process data that you have lawfully consented to provide to us. You may at any time request to withdraw your consent, and we will delete all data associated with your account. If you have any questions, you may contact us at info@gmrtranscription.com.
Your personal information is entered into our system (by you) when you register with us. This information is only used as contact information regarding your work. No one outside the authorized staff of our company can see or have access to your personal information, such as your name, address, phone number, and credit card number. Your personal information is never shared with a third party, as it is against our privacy policy to do so.
Any of the information we collect from you may be used in one of the following ways:
We implement a variety of security measures to safeguard your personal information when you place an order. Our server is SSL-encrypted. SSL means "Secure Socket Layer." Whenever your transcribed files are sent over the internet, they are encrypted. This is automatically done by our server for your protection so that no unauthorized person can access them.
We offer the use of a secure server. All sensitive/credit card information is transmitted using SSL technology and then stored in an encrypted form in our Payment gateway database. This information can only be accessed by the few who are authorized with exclusive access rights to such information, and these personnel sign a confidentiality and privacy agreement with us to keep such information confidential. After a transaction, your confidential information (credit cards, social security numbers, financials, etc.) will be stored upon your consent for any further transactions.
Should you find that your need to ensure privacy and security is above and beyond what is stipulated in this privacy policy, please contact info@gmrtranscription.com or call the number at the bottom of this page.
Your audio materials are used for transcription purposes only. The audios are used solely by the transcriptionists who type out the audio, after which they are deleted from our database. All typists are required to sign a legally binding Confidentiality/ND Agreement with us upon hire. These typists are US based. You can rest assured that none of your audio/ video/ text materials will be shared with any third party by us.
Our server is SSL-encrypted. You will note when you receive your automated emails concerning the completion of your files that the transcripts are encrypted. This is automatically done by our server for your protection. Should you find the need to ensure that privacy is above and beyond this policy, please contact info@gmrtranscription.com or call the number at the bottom of this page.

We take every reasonable step to safeguard the Personal Data provided by you to us from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
