Privacy Policy for LydMate

Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how LydMate ("we", "our", or "us") collects, uses, and protects information when you use our mobile application and website.

1. Information We Collect

Mobile App:

• Microphone Access: The app uses your device’s microphone solely for pitch detection to assist in instrument tuning. No audio is recorded, stored, or transmitted.
• Firebase Analytics: We use Firebase Analytics to understand user interaction with the app (e.g., screen views, session duration). Collected data is anonymized and not linked to your identity. Firebase handles this data according to its own privacy practices.
• AdMob: We use Google AdMob to display advertisements. AdMob may collect and use data such as device information, general location (e.g., country-level geodata), and ad interactions to serve personalized ads. These services manage data independently under their own privacy policies.

Website:

• Cookies and Analytics: Our website may use cookies and analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics) to improve user experience, analyze traffic, and personalize content or ads. You can manage cookie preferences in your browser settings.

2. How We Use the Information

• Improve app functionality and user experience
• Analyze user engagement (via Firebase)
• Display relevant ads (via AdMob)

3. Data Sharing

We do not sell or share your personal data. However, third-party services (Firebase, AdMob, RevenueCat, Google Analytics ) may process anonymized data in accordance with their respective privacy policies.

4. Your Choices

• You can opt out of personalized ads through your device settings (e.g., “Opt out of Ads Personalization” on Android).
• On iOS, you can turn off tracking in Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking.
• You can restrict microphone permissions in your device settings. Note: disabling microphone access will prevent tuning functionality from working.

5. In-App Purchases

The app may offer optional in-app purchases or subscriptions. These purchases are managed with the help of RevenueCat, which acts as an intermediary between the app and the Google Play Store or Apple App Store. All transactions are securely processed through the respective platforms. We do not collect or store any payment information. Please refer to the privacy policies of the app stores and RevenueCat for more information.

6. External Links

The app may contain links to external websites or third-party services. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of these external sites. We encourage users to review the privacy policies of any third-party websites they visit.

7. Cookies and Tracking

The app itself does not use cookies. However, third-party services — including external websites opened via WebView — may use cookies or similar technologies to collect data as described in their respective privacy policies.

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Store user preferences
• Analyze visitor traffic through Google Analytics
• Provide personalized content or ads (via third-party services)

You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the app or our data practices. Please review this page periodically for the latest version. Continued use of the app after updates indicates your acceptance of the revised Policy.
