Welcome to TaiwanSounds (“we,” “our,” or “us”). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you use the app and how it is used.

1) Information We Collect

No Account Information: TaiwanSounds does not require an account. We do not collect personal information such as your name, email address, or phone number.
Usage Data (Analytics): We use a privacy-focused analytics tool (PostHog) to collect anonymous information about how the app is used. This may include events such as app opens, sounds played, and features used. This data is not linked to your identity.
Device Data: The app may collect limited technical information (such as device type or app version) to help improve performance and fix issues. This information is not used to identify you.
Local Data: Some data, such as your favorite sounds, is stored locally on your device and is not transmitted to our servers.
Feedback Information (Optional): If you choose to contact us or submit feedback, you may provide an email address or message content. This information is only used to respond to your inquiry and is not used for marketing or shared with third parties.

We do not collect sensitive personal data and do not use tracking for advertising purposes.

2) How We Use Information

To operate and improve the TaiwanSounds app
To understand how users interact with features (in an anonymous, aggregated way)
To fix bugs and improve performance

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information.

3) Analytics

We use PostHog, a privacy-focused analytics platform, to understand general usage patterns. PostHog uses anonymous identifiers and does not track you across other apps or services.

4) Data Storage and Third-Party Services

App content such as audio files and metadata may be delivered through third-party infrastructure (such as Supabase). These services process data only as needed to deliver app functionality.

5) Data Retention

Anonymous usage data may be retained to help improve the app over time. Since we do not collect personal information, there is no user account data to retain or delete.

6) Security

We implement reasonable safeguards to protect data. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

7) Your Rights

Because we do not collect personally identifiable information, we generally cannot associate data with a specific individual. If you have questions or concerns, you can contact us using the information below.

8) Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The latest version will always be available with the updated date.
