If you are building your own assistant, you may want to consider a hardware-switch for disabling the microphone. Keep tabs on issues and check the code, to ensure you are happy with how it works, from a privacy perspective
## Bonus: Alternatives to Google
Moving away from Google, and using multiple alternative apps will mean there is no single source of tracking. Open source and privacy-focused software is best

## Additional Self-Hosted Tools
Hosting an open source application on your own server or using a secure cloud provider, immediately means that you own all data and logs. Hence no one other than you can easily get to this. However it is worth noting that you will ensure the server is properly secure, and keep all software up-to-date yourself
