Unlike tons of shitty "cloud" bloatware/spyware, it is a standalone program, it don't need any internet connection to work. So, it does not upload anything to third-party server to recognize birds. It is a simple neural network (TensorFlow Lite based) that use trained model provided with program source.
You could make your RPi with birdnet accessible from internet if you wish, but do not have to.

Even on birdnetpi.com page there ar a lot of italic highlited word "local". Local recognition, local database, local webinterface, rare thing nowdays, really. Nice project.
