In short: Sound Deck collects nothing. It has no account, no ads, no analytics and no access to the internet. Your sounds, recordings and decks stay on your phone.
Who we are
Sound Deck is made by Business Object, a small independent developer. This policy covers the Sound Deck app for Android and this website.
What the app stores, and where
Everything you make in Sound Deck is stored only in the app's own storage on your phone:
- the audio files you import, and the sound taken from a video you pick;
- the recordings you make with the microphone;
- your decks, sound names and settings, such as loop and volume.
None of this is sent to us or to anyone else. The app cannot do so: it does not ask for access to the internet. Uninstalling the app, or clearing its data, deletes all of it.
The microphone
Sound Deck asks for the microphone only when you choose to record a sound. The recording is saved on your phone and goes nowhere else. You can refuse or withdraw the permission at any time in your phone's settings; everything else in the app keeps working.
Files you pick
When you import a sound, Android's own file picker lets you choose a file. The app reads only the file you choose, and keeps a copy of its audio.
What we collect
Nothing. There is no account, no sign-up, no advertising, no analytics and no crash reporting in the app, and no third-party code that collects data.
Backups by Android
If you have turned on backup in your phone's settings, Android may include the app's data in your own backup with Google, or move it to a new phone when you switch. That backup is kept in your Google account under Google's terms; we cannot see it. You can turn backup off in your phone's settings.
Buying the app
Sound Deck is sold through Google Play. Google handles the payment and shares with us only what it shares with every developer, such as the country and the order details of a purchase, never your card. Google's own privacy policy applies to Google Play.
This website
This site uses no cookies, no analytics and no tracking, and loads nothing from other companies. Like any web server, our host (Cloudflare) briefly processes the technical details of each request, such as your IP address, to deliver the page and protect it from abuse.
Children
The app collects no personal information from anyone, children included.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
