Effective date: Nov 13 2026
Echoboard ("the app", "we", "us") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information is collected when you use Echoboard on iOS and Android, how it is used, and the choices you have.
You don't need an account. Echoboard doesn't ask for your name, email address, phone number or postal address.
Your sounds stay on your device. Audio you record with the microphone or import from your files is stored only on your device. We never upload it to our servers. The microphone is used only while you are recording a sound.
Information collected by third-party services. Echoboard uses the services listed in section 4. They may automatically collect:
Device and app information, such as device model, operating system version, app version, language and approximate (country-level) location derived from your IP address.
Identifiers, such as an app instance ID and, where you allow it, your device's advertising identifier (the IDFA on iPhone or the Advertising ID on Android).
Usage and diagnostics, such as which features are used, ad impressions and clicks, and crash or performance data.
Purchases. If you buy Echoboard Pro, the payment is handled entirely by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play). We never see your payment details. We receive only confirmation that the purchase was made, so we can unlock Pro and restore it on reinstall or on a new device.
To provide the app's features: recording, playback, boards, themes and backups.
To unlock and restore Echoboard Pro and time-limited Pro passes earned by watching rewarded ads.
To show ads that support the free version of the app.
To understand general usage and fix crashes, so we can improve the app.
We do not sell your personal information.
The free version of Echoboard shows ads from Google AdMob. You can also choose to watch a rewarded ad to unlock Pro features for a limited time.
iPhone (App Tracking Transparency): on iOS, Echoboard asks for your permission before your device's advertising identifier is used to track you across other companies' apps and websites. If you allow it, you may see more relevant ads. If you choose "Ask App Not to Track", you will still see ads, but they will be less personalized. You can change this at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
Android: you can reset or delete your Advertising ID, or opt out of personalized ads, in your device's Google settings (Settings → Google → Ads or Settings → Privacy → Ads, depending on your device).
EEA, UK and Switzerland: where required, Echoboard shows a consent message from Google before personalized ads are shown. You can choose which purposes you agree to.
Echoboard Pro: if you own lifetime Pro, the app shows no ads, does not ask for tracking permission and does not load any ads.
These services process data under their own privacy policies:
Google AdMob (advertising): https://policies.google.com/privacy and https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads
Google Firebase Analytics (usage analytics): https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy
Apple App Store in-app purchases: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/
Google Play billing: https://policies.google.com/privacy
Your recordings, boards and settings are stored on your device until you delete them in the app or uninstall it.
Analytics and advertising data are kept by Google according to its own retention settings and policies.
We don't operate our own servers that store your personal data.
Delete your sounds at any time in the app. Uninstalling the app removes all app data from your device.
Control tracking and ad personalization using the device settings described in section 3.
Remove ads by purchasing Echoboard Pro.
Depending on where you live (for example, in the EEA, UK or California), you may have rights to access, delete or object to the processing of your personal information. Because we don't hold personal data on our own servers, most of these requests are handled by the third-party services above. You can still contact us and we will help.
Echoboard is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the app, please contact us and we will help remove it.
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the effective date above and post the new version on this page.
