Yes, all your text is being sent to Grammarly servers. It's done over HTTPS, so no third party can see what you type in, only you and Grammarly see your texts.

- stjohnswarts 5y agoThat's really bad actually. Especially if they are storing it away in a database associated with your unique ID for surveillance for 3rd party companies and the government.

- registeredcorn 5y agoHmm, so if I understand things correctly: The means of transmitting that information is (supposed to be) secure, but the information within it - if the means of transmission (HTTPS) is compromised in any way - means a third party would then be able to read that information. Right?
- Dma54rhs 5y agoYes and grammarly obviously reads it, since it works over the Internet. Do they store it? Probably not but read their TOS and obviously you have to trust them as well.
- TedDoesntTalk 5y agoWhy wouldn’t they store it? That’s a good mine of information in many different ways (product improvement, upselling, ad targeting, etc)
