A note on privacy
Minut sensors monitor sound levels — not recordings. No audio is ever stored or transmitted. The sensor measures decibel levels only, which means guests are never recorded and your use of Minut is compliant with privacy laws in most jurisdictions.
See our privacy and compliance guide for details.
