Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 25 March 2026

Lysoniq ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use Lysoniq across iOS, macOS, and tvOS ("the App") and our website at lysoniq.app ("the Website").

1. Information We Collect

Within the App

Lysoniq does not require you to create an account or sign in. We do not collect your name, Apple ID, contacts, location, or any personally identifiable information through the App. Any analytics we collect are anonymous and cannot be used to identify you.

Through the Website

If you submit a beta request or subscribe to our mailing list via the Website, we collect the email address you provide along with any optional information you choose to share (such as device preferences or feedback). When the beta form is accessed from within the App, basic non-identifying device information (such as app version and platform) may be included automatically.

2. Apple Music Usage

Lysoniq integrates with your Apple Music account using official APIs provided by Apple. Access is limited to displaying and controlling your Apple Music library and playback. We do not transmit or store your Apple Music data outside your devices.

3. Last.fm Integration

If you choose to connect your Last.fm account, your credentials are stored securely on your device using the operating system's built-in security features. Listening data is sent directly from the App to Last.fm's servers for scrobbling purposes. We do not have access to your Last.fm credentials on our servers.

4. Analytics

We use a third-party analytics service to collect anonymous usage data. This helps us understand how the App and Website are used and improve the experience. Analytics may include:

  • App version and device preferences
  • Feature usage events
  • Crash or error information

All analytics are anonymous and are not linked to your identity.

5. Email Communications

We collect email addresses in two separate contexts:

Beta testing: If you submit a beta request through the Website, your email is used solely to send you a TestFlight invitation. Beta testers will not receive marketing or product emails unless they also opt into the mailing list.

Mailing list: If you choose to subscribe to our mailing list, we may send you occasional updates about Lysoniq and related projects. You can unsubscribe at any time by contacting us.

We never share your email address with third parties.

6. Advertising

Lysoniq does not display advertisements and we do not sell data to advertisers.

7. Data Retention

Playback and session data remains on your device and is not transmitted to us. Anonymous analytics data is retained by our analytics provider in accordance with their privacy policy. Email addresses provided through the Website are retained until you request removal.

8. Age Requirements

Use of Lysoniq requires an Apple Music subscription, which is subject to Apple's own age and consent requirements. We do not independently collect personal information from anyone under the age of 13. If you believe personal information has been submitted on behalf of a minor through the Website, please contact us and we will remove it promptly.

9. Security

All sensitive data is stored using the operating system's built-in security features. Network communications between the App and external services use encrypted connections. We follow industry best practices to protect your information.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Effective Date" at the top of this page. Continued use of the App or Website after changes are made constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
