2. App Permissions & System Access

Sonic requests the following system permissions only to deliver its core features. You may grant or revoke any permission at any time via your device Settings → Sonic.

Microphone

Required to record audio within the App. Recordings are initiated only by your explicit action. Sonic does not access the microphone in the background.

Storage / Files

Used to save audio recordings and processed files to your device, and to import existing audio files for editing or processing. The App accesses only files you explicitly select.

Photo Library / Media Access

Accessed only when you explicitly choose to import an audio or media file for processing. The App does not scan or read your files without your direct action.


3. Categories of Personal Data We Collect

A. Content You Create

All audio content is stored locally on your device. Sonic does not upload your audio recordings or processed files to remote servers.

B. Subscription & Transaction Data

Payment and billing details are handled entirely by the App Store. Sonic does not collect or store your payment card information. Please refer to Apple's Privacy Policy for details.

C. Device & Usage Data

4. How We Use Personal Data


5. On-Device AI Processing

Sonic includes an AI music generation feature. All AI processing is performed entirely on your device. Your audio data and generated content are not transmitted to external servers or third-party AI service providers for this purpose.

AI-generated outputs are automated and may not always meet expectations. Please review results before use.


6. Data Sharing & Service Providers

We may share limited non-content data (such as crash reports and usage analytics) with trusted third-party service providers solely to operate and improve the App. These may include analytics and crash reporting services.

All service providers are contractually obligated to protect your personal data and may not use it for their own purposes.


7. International Data Transfers

If personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area, we implement appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent legal mechanisms.


8. Data Retention

Audio files and processed content are stored locally on your device and remain under your control. Usage and diagnostic data is retained only as long as necessary to operate and improve the App.


9. Data Security

We implement industry-standard safeguards including encryption in transit (HTTPS/TLS), restricted access controls, and monitoring systems to protect your personal data.


10. App Tracking Transparency (ATT)

Sonic does not track you across third-party apps or websites for advertising purposes. The App does not request App Tracking Transparency (ATT) permission.

Any analytics data we collect is used solely for internal product improvement and is never shared with advertising networks or data brokers.

13. Data Removal

Since Sonic identifies your session by device, no account registration or login credentials are required. All audio content created within the App is stored locally on your device and can be deleted at any time from within the App or by uninstalling the App.

To request deletion of any usage or diagnostic data we may hold, contact us at lucasbrown301@outlook.com.


14. Children's Privacy

The App is not directed to children under 13 (or 16 in the EU). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.


15. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Updates will be posted within the App and on this page with a revised effective date. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
