Among smart assistants, Alexa has the most comprehensive and straightforward set of privacy controls. Amazon recently released the Alexa privacy hub, which has a thorough explanation of the types of data collected by the virtual assistant and how to change its privacy settings.
Here’s how to opt out of human vetting:
- Open the Alexa app on your smartphone and tap Settings and then select Alexa Privacy.
- Tap Manage How Your Data Improves Alexa.
- For the control that says Help Improve Amazon Services and Develop New Features, toggle the switch to the off position.
Here’s how to delete your voice recordings:
- In the same Alexa Privacy menu, select Review Voice History.
- In date range, select the time frame of recordings you want to delete, such as All History.
- Tap Delete All Recordings for All History.
