Your music stays personal.

1. Summary

WayVibe does not require you to create an account to use the core app. The app is designed to keep your library, playlists, playback state, and zone settings primarily on your device.

2. Information We Process

Local music library information

When you add music files or folders, WayVibe reads file and metadata information such as track title, artist, album, duration, embedded art, and the file path needed to play your music.

Location information

If you enable location permissions, WayVibe uses your device location to power zone-based playback. Location checks are used to determine whether you are inside or outside a zone. Core zone logic runs on your device.

Purchase information

If you choose to upgrade to Pro, purchases are handled by Google Play and RevenueCat. Those services may process app user identifiers, product identifiers, transaction status, country or storefront data, and related subscription or entitlement information.

Metadata and artwork lookups

If you use metadata enhancement or artwork discovery features, the app may send track-related search information, such as artist and title, to third-party metadata providers to find artwork or metadata matches.

3. How We Use Information

• To import, organize, and play your local audio files.
• To save playlists, listening history, settings, and zone behavior on your device.
• To trigger location-based playback when you enter or leave saved zones.
• To fetch map tiles and fonts for the zone map screen.
• To fetch optional metadata and artwork matches when you ask the app to do so.
• To validate and restore Pro purchases and unlock paid features.

4. Where Data Is Stored

WayVibe stores most app data locally on your device using on-device storage. This includes your library database, cached artwork, playlists, app settings, and zone configuration.

We do not currently require a WayVibe user account for core playback, and we do not upload your local music library to our own servers just to run the app.

5. Third-Party Services

WayVibe may interact with the following third-party services:

• Google Play for Android billing and purchase processing.
• RevenueCat for purchase validation, paywall, restore, and entitlement handling.
• OpenFreeMap for map tiles and map fonts used in zone screens.
• MusicBrainz for optional music metadata lookups.
• Cover Art Archive for optional album artwork lookups.

These services may receive technical information such as your IP address, device request headers, purchase status data, or search terms needed to fulfill their part of the service.

6. Your Choices

• You can choose not to grant location permission. Zone-based features will then be limited or unavailable.
• You can remove imported music from the app and clear cached artwork from Settings.
• You can disable auto-resume and adjust playback behavior in Settings.
• You can manage or cancel purchases through Google Play.
• You can uninstall the app to remove locally stored app data, subject to your device behavior.

7. Data Retention

Data stored locally remains on your device until you remove it, clear app data, uninstall the app, or change related settings. Purchase records and entitlement data may also be retained by Google Play and RevenueCat according to their own policies.

8. Children’s Privacy

WayVibe is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the app. If you believe a child has provided personal information through WayVibe, contact us and we will review the request.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the effective date on this page.
