Privacy Policy for Audio Tag Editor

This Privacy Policy describes how Audio Tag Editor ("we", "us", or "our") handles your information when you use our mobile application (the "App").

1. Information We Collect and Access

Audio Tag Editor is primarily a local offline audio metadata editor designed to respect your privacy. We do not collect or store your personally identifiable information on external servers.

A. Local Audio and Storage Access

To provide metadata editing and playback features, the App requests permission to access audio files stored on your device:

• READ_MEDIA_AUDIO / READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE & WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Used exclusively to scan, organize, read, and save updated metadata tags to your local audio files.
• Local Storage: Saved metadata edits, cached artwork, and user preferences are stored locally on your device only.

B. Network Access

The App uses network permissions for third-party service features:

• INTERNET: Required to serve advertisements via Google AdMob and perform necessary network requests for third-party services.

2. Third-Party Services & Advertising

To keep the App free, Audio Tag Editor integrates third-party services (Google AdMob) that may collect and share anonymous device data for advertising, analytics, and diagnostics.

Google Mobile Ads (AdMob)

Google AdMob may collect and share the following data types to serve personalized or non-personalized ads and ensure service stability:

• Device or other IDs: Advertising identifiers (e.g., Google Advertising ID / AAID) and device characteristics.
• Approximate Location: Coarse location data (derived from IP address) used for localized ad serving.
• App Info and Performance: Crash logs, diagnostics, and performance data related to ad rendering and app stability.

For more details on how Google handles your data, please review:

• Google Privacy & Terms Policy
• How Google uses information from sites or apps that use their services

3. Data Retention and Deletion

Because all your audio file metadata edits, artwork caches, and app preferences are stored locally on your device, we do not retain your personal data on any server. You can remove all locally stored app data at any time by clearing the App's data in your device settings or by uninstalling the App.

4. Children's Privacy

Our App is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

5. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
