Privacy Policy

Thank you for using MPD Pilot! This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and disclose information obtained through our app. By using our app, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect and store certain information about your usage of our app. This information is collected in an anonymized and aggregated form, which means it does not personally identify you. The information we collect may include:

  • App Logs: We may collect app logs that record certain events, errors, and usage statistics related to the functioning of our app. These logs help us identify and troubleshoot technical issues and improve the performance and user experience of our app. The app logs are stored in a manner that does not link them to any identifiable information.

2. Use of Information

The information we collect is used solely for the purpose of improving our app and enhancing the user experience. Specifically, we may use the collected information for the following purposes:

  • App Improvement: We analyze the app logs to identify and fix bugs, errors, and other technical issues within our app. This helps us provide a more stable and reliable app experience for our users.

  • User Experience Enhancement: The collected information allows us to understand how users interact with our app, including the features they use most frequently or encounter difficulties with. This enables us to make informed decisions to enhance the user interface and overall user experience.

3. Personal Data

We want to emphasize that our app does NOT collect any private or personal data, including the following:

  • MPD server credentials (host names, ports, passwords)
  • Contents of your MPD queue and library
  • Titles of songs you listen to
  • Local playback stream URLs

We respect your privacy and are committed to ensuring that no private or personal data is collected through our app.

4. Data Sharing and Disclosure

  • No Sale or Trade of Information: We do not sell, rent, or trade any information collected through our app, including app logs or metadata. All collected information is stored in an aggregated and anonymized form on our virtual private server, for internal use only.

  • Third-Party Services: Certain features of our app may rely on sending song metadata (such as song title, artist, album name) to third-party services solely to enhance functionality, like displaying cover art or other related information. This data is shared only as necessary for the intended purpose, and not for commercial purposes or resale.

  • User Control: Users have full control over the sharing of this metadata. Any features requiring song metadata sharing with third parties can be disabled at any time in the app settings. We ensure clear indication within the app when such data is shared externally, allowing users to make informed choices about their information.

5. Data Retention

We retain the collected information, including the app logs, for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy. Once the information is no longer required, we will securely delete it.

6. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the collected information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, please be aware that no security measures are foolproof, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of the information we collect.

7. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time. Any changes to this policy will be effective immediately upon posting the updated Privacy Policy in our app. Please review this Privacy Policy periodically for any updates.
