Biophony Privacy Policy

Summary

Biophony does not collect data, track you, show ads, require an account, or use a developer-operated backend. The developer does not sell or share personal information from the app.

Information on Your Device

The app may store recordings, spectrogram settings, notes, tags, and optional coordinates. These records remain in the app's local container and are not transmitted to the developer.

Device Permissions

• Microphone access, only while recording a field sound. The information stays on your device and is not sent to the developer.
• Optional location access to attach coordinates to a local recording. The information stays on your device and is not sent to the developer.

Sharing and Exports

When you choose a share or export control, content is created locally and passed to an Apple system interface. You choose the destination. The developer does not receive the export.

Network Access and Third Parties

The app has no developer-operated account service, advertising SDK, analytics SDK, tracking SDK, or crash-reporting SDK. A clearly labeled external reference link may open a website only when you choose it; that website is governed by its own policy.

Retention and Deletion

Local information remains until you delete it with available controls or remove the app. Apple-managed device backups are controlled by your Apple settings.

Product Scope

Reference-call comparisons are field-study aids and are not a guarantee of species identification.

Children's Privacy

No personal information is knowingly collected from children or any other user because the app transmits no user data to the developer.

Changes

This policy and the App Store privacy disclosure will be updated before a future release changes these practices.
