This Privacy Policy describes how Noisescape ("we", "us", or "our") handles information when you visit noisescap.app.
Information we collect
Noisescape does not require registration or any personal information to use the service. We do not collect names, email addresses, or any personally identifiable information directly from users.
When you visit the Site, certain information is collected automatically through third-party services: pages visited, time on page, browser type, operating system, referring website, and approximate geographic location (country/region level). This is aggregate data and cannot identify individual users.
Audio data: All sounds are generated entirely within your browser. No audio data, sound preferences, or listening sessions are transmitted to our servers or any third party.
Cookies
Noisescape itself does not set cookies. However, Google Analytics and Google AdSense — third-party services we use — may set cookies on your device. These include Google Analytics cookies (_ga, _gid) for aggregate traffic statistics, and AdSense cookies for advertising.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use Noisescape. It collects aggregate information such as page visits, session duration, and device type. We do not combine this with personally identifiable information. You can opt out via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. Google's use of this data is governed by the Google Privacy Policy.
Google AdSense and advertising
Noisescape displays advertisements provided by Google AdSense. Google AdSense uses cookies to serve ads based on users' prior visits to this and other websites. Google may use this information to serve personalised ads across the internet. You can opt out of personalised advertising at Google Ads Settings or aboutads.info. For more information see How Google uses data when you use our partners' sites.
How we use information
Aggregate analytics data is used solely to understand how visitors use the Site and to improve it. We do not sell, trade, or transfer user information to third parties beyond the service providers described above.
Third-party links
The Site may contain links to third-party websites with their own privacy policies. We have no responsibility for their content or practices.
Children's privacy
Noisescape does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so we can delete it.
Your rights
Since Noisescape does not collect personal data directly, rights over personal data primarily apply to Google's systems. You can exercise these through Google's privacy tools or your browser's cookie settings. EEA/UK users may exercise GDPR rights via Google's Privacy Policy.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy periodically. Changes will be posted here with an updated date. Continued use constitutes acceptance of changes.
