Is Confidante white noise, pink noise, or sound masking?
No. White noise and pink noise are engineering technical terms defined by ANSI standards that sound very uncomfortable. They are both unsuitable for speech privacy. Sound masking refers to plenum-based sound systems that are mounted inside the ceiling plenum and produce muffled, indistinct, non-uniform sound. They are complex and difficult for even professionals to tune. They are also expensive. They seldom deliver effective, comfortable privacy.
