Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 6, 2026
Overview
This Privacy Policy applies to the Vibe app ("the App") published by Musicus LLC ("we", "us", "our"). Vibe is designed with privacy in mind. We believe your practice data is yours and should stay on your device.
By using the App, you acknowledge the data practices described in this policy. You can disable telemetry in the App's settings and manage advertising choices through the App's privacy controls. If you do not agree with this policy, discontinue use of the App.
Data Controller
Musicus LLC is the data controller responsible for the processing of your personal data. For contact information, see the Contact section below.
Data We Collect
Vibe collects the following categories of data to improve the App and support advertising:
Usage Telemetry
We collect usage and diagnostic data to understand how features are used and to improve app quality. This includes:
- Session duration and feature usage flags (e.g., whether tap tempo, count-in, or presets were used)
- Performance metrics (audio timing accuracy)
- App version and upgrade history
- Device model, operating system version, screen size, and country (derived from device locale)
This data does not include your name, email address, saved practice content, or audio recordings. It does include device and app-usage information such as device model, OS version, screen size, country derived from locale, feature usage, session duration, and crash diagnostics. Telemetry is enabled by default and processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in improving the App. You can disable it at any time in the App's Settings under Privacy.
Crash Reports
When the App crashes, we collect error details and stack traces to diagnose and fix issues. Crash reports include device model, OS version, and app version. They do not contain personal data. Crash reporting is processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in maintaining App stability.
Advertising Data
Vibe displays banner ads provided by Google AdMob. AdMob may collect and use device advertising identifiers, device data, IP-based approximate location, and usage data for ad delivery, fraud prevention, measurement, and, where permitted, ad personalization. In the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, and Switzerland, advertising choices are managed through Google's consent message and privacy options flow where required. Depending on your region and the choices you make, ads may be personalized, limited, non-personalized, or unavailable. For details on Google's data practices, see the Google Privacy Policy.
Legal Basis for Processing
We process your data under the following legal bases:
- Legitimate interest: Usage telemetry and crash reporting, to maintain and improve the App
- Consent: Advertising choices that require consent, including ad personalization where applicable. You can withdraw or change consent at any time through the App's privacy controls
- Contractual necessity: On-device data storage required for the App to function
Data We Do Not Collect
- We do not collect your name, email, or contact information through the App
- We do not record or transmit audio from or to your device
- We do not track your precise location
- We do not sell or share your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising
- We do not create profiles for targeted advertising based on your activity across other apps or websites
On-Device Data
Settings, presets, and practice preferences are stored locally on your device. This data is not transmitted to our servers. If you delete the App, this data is removed.
Third-Party Services
Vibe uses the following third-party services, all operated by Google LLC:
- Firebase Analytics — usage analytics
- Firebase Crashlytics — crash reporting
- Google AdMob — advertising
These services may collect device identifiers, IP addresses (for approximate geographic location), and usage data as described in the Google Privacy Policy. Data transmitted to these services is sent over encrypted channels (HTTPS/TLS). Google handles data collected through these services under its own platform terms and privacy commitments.
International Data Transfers
Data collected through the third-party services listed above may be transferred to and processed in the United States and other countries where Google operates. For users in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, Switzerland, Brazil, or Canada, these transfers are made under appropriate safeguards, including Google's Standard Contractual Clauses and their compliance with applicable data protection frameworks.
App Store Platform Data
When you install or update Vibe through Google Play or the Apple App Store, the platform operator may process technical and diagnostic information (for example, install/update status, device compatibility details, and platform-level crash diagnostics). We may access aggregated reports (such as installs, crashes, and device/country breakdowns), but we do not receive direct personal identity data from these reports. Google and Apple handle this platform data under their own systems and policies.
How We Share Data
We share usage telemetry, crash reports, and advertising data with Google through the third-party services listed above. We do not sell personal data. We do not share personal data with any other third parties except as described in this policy. We may disclose data if required by law or to protect our legal rights.
Your Choices and Controls
You can control data collection through the App's Settings under Privacy:
- Usage Telemetry: Toggle off to stop the App from sending usage analytics and crash reports to Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics
- Ad Choices: Open the privacy controls to manage advertising choices. In some regions, this opens Google's consent and privacy options flow
You can also reset your device's advertising identifier or, where supported by your platform, limit ad personalization through your device's system settings. These system controls do not replace the in-app consent flow where regional law or platform policy requires it.
Data Security
Practice data stays on your device. Data transmitted to third-party services (analytics, crash reports, ads) is sent over encrypted channels (HTTPS/TLS). We implement appropriate technical measures to protect data in transit, though no method of electronic transmission is 100% secure.
Data Retention and Deletion
On-device settings and preferences remain on your device until you delete them or uninstall the App. Usage analytics and crash data retained by Google are subject to Google's retention policies. Vibe does not offer user accounts, so there is no account data to delete. If you contact us about deleting telemetry data, we will review whether we can identify the relevant records.
Children's Privacy
Vibe is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 in jurisdictions where a higher age threshold applies). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. The App does not require an account or personal information to use. If you believe we have inadvertently collected data from a child, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.
Limits on Identification
Vibe does not use user accounts and does not collect direct identifiers such as your name or email address through the App. Because of that, we may not be able to identify which telemetry records belong to a particular person.
If you ask us to access, export, correct, or delete telemetry data, we may need additional information to determine whether we can identify the relevant records. In some cases, we may not be able to do so. We do not collect extra identifying information solely to respond to these requests.
