For any questions about how we handle your data, please contact us using the details above.
When you create an account, we collect your chosen display name, email address (if provided), and profile preferences (avatar, theme, language). You are not required to use your real name. If you sign in with a third-party provider (e.g., Google or Apple), we receive only the information you authorize that provider to share (typically email and display name).
Audio files you record within the App are stored locally on your device. We do not access, transmit, or process your audio recordings unless you explicitly choose to publish them to the community library. Published recordings are stored on our EU-hosted servers. You can delete published recordings at any time, and they will be removed from our servers within 30 days.
Profile customizations, community interactions (likes, follows, comments), playlists, and other content you create within the App. Content you publish to the community is visible to other users.
Your in-app progression (level, achievements, unlocked features, completed missions, equipped items, fuel balance) is stored locally and synced to our servers when you are signed in. This data is essential for providing the App's core functionality.
We collect anonymized device information (device type, operating system version, app version, screen dimensions) and usage analytics to improve the App. This includes screens visited, features used, session duration, and performance metrics. This data is collected in aggregate and cannot be used to identify you personally.
If the App crashes or encounters an error, we automatically collect diagnostic data through our crash reporting service (Sentry). This may include device state, stack traces, app configuration, and breadcrumbs (recent actions before the crash). Crash data is stripped of personally identifiable information before transmission. We use this solely to identify and fix bugs.
If you enable push notifications, we store a device token (provided by Google Firebase Cloud Messaging or Apple Push Notification Service) to deliver notifications. You can disable notifications at any time in your device settings or in the App's settings.
If you make in-app purchases or subscribe to AudioLaunch Pro, payment processing is handled entirely by the Google Play Store or Apple App Store. We receive a purchase receipt confirming your subscription status but never receive or store your payment card details, bank information, or billing address.

Your account data is stored on secure servers within the European Union (Supabase, Frankfurt). We implement industry-standard security measures including:
Audio recordings remain on your device unless you explicitly choose to share them.

The App uses automated systems for in-app progression (leveling, achievement tracking, content recommendations). These systems personalize your experience based on your activity within the App. No automated decisions are made that produce legal effects or similarly significantly affect you. Community content moderation may use automated filters, with human review for enforcement actions.
AudioLaunch is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or 16 in the EEA). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately at privacy@audio-launch.com and we will delete it within 72 hours.

| Account & profile data | Until account deletion + 30 days |
| Published recordings | Until deleted by user + 30 days |
| Crash reports | 90 days |
| Analytics data (anonymized) | 24 months |
| Purchase records | 7 years (Dutch tax law) |

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes through the App or via email at least 14 days before changes take effect. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
