How to Stop Google From Storing Your Voice to Text Recordings

Today, I ran across an article pointing out that Google is storing your searches and queries, including your voice to text dictation data.

I forgot that, many years ago, I had turned off all of these features, so Google doesn't report to me any history of my activity on any of their websites. But, I surprised some friends when I showed them how Google was storing their info. It is relatively easy to see what personal data they're recording. Simply visit the following webpage when you're logged into one of your Google accounts:
https://history.google.com

All clear - there's nothing to see here.


The following link will take you, step by step, through a Google privacy checkup where you can tell them what personal data you want them to record:
