This Privacy Policy explains how InAudioTag: Music Tag Editor (the “App”), developed by Krepel Studio (“we,” “us,” or “our”), accesses and handles information.
InAudioTag is an offline Android application designed to view and edit metadata in audio files stored on or made accessible through your device, including supported MP3, FLAC, and M4A files. It does not require an account.
To provide its features, the App may access and process:
Audio files and metadata: file names, file references, song titles, artists, album information, genres, years, track and disc numbers, comments, and embedded album artwork.
Selected images: pictures you choose through Android’s photo picker or document picker to use as album artwork.
Local editing information: selected files, unsaved changes, editing drafts, batch-processing progress, temporary working copies, recovery copies, and operation records.
App preferences: settings such as language, theme, and haptic feedback preferences.
This information is used to display your music library, read and edit selected metadata, update album artwork, save your changes, display processing progress, and support recovery of interrupted file operations.
The App does not use your audio content for advertising, profiling, or music playback.
The App processes music files and related editing information locally on your device.
The App does not automatically transmit your audio files, album covers, music metadata, editing drafts, or editing history to Krepel Studio. We do not operate a server that receives or stores this content for the App.
The App does not use advertising services, advertising identifiers, third-party analytics, or an account system. We do not sell information obtained through the App or share it with advertisers or data brokers.
Background processing does not introduce cloud synchronization or upload your files to Krepel Studio.
Depending on your Android version and the feature you use, the App may use the following permissions and system mechanisms:
Audio access — READ_MEDIA_AUDIO: on Android 13 and later, to discover and display supported audio files in the device’s shared media library.
Legacy read access — READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: on supported Android versions up to Android 12L, to read audio files in shared storage.
Legacy write access — WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: on Android 9 and earlier, when needed to save changes under the older Android storage model.
Notifications — POST_NOTIFICATIONS: on Android 13 and later, to display batch-processing progress, processing status, and a Cancel action in notifications.
Foreground service — FOREGROUND_SERVICE and FOREGROUND_SERVICE_DATA_SYNC: to continue user-started local file processing when the App is no longer visible. The Android service type named “dataSync” is used for local processing; the App does not use it to synchronize your music with a server.
Temporary processor wake lock — WAKE_LOCK: to help active batch processing continue while the screen is off. The App uses a time-limited partial wake lock during processing and releases it when processing ends or the service stops. This does not require keeping the screen on.
Android’s system file picker: to open individual files you select through the access granted by Android.
Android’s system write-approval mechanisms: to request confirmation before modifying protected media files where Android requires it.
Android’s photo picker or document picker: to access an image you select for album artwork without requesting broad access to your photo library.
Permissions and file access are used for the relevant App features.
You can decline permission requests and change available permission settings through Android. If audio-library access is denied, you may still be able to open individual files through the system file picker.
Foreground-service and wake-lock permissions are system-declared permissions and do not involve a separate runtime permission dialog. Notification permission is requested separately where required by Android.
The App does not request location, microphone, camera, contacts, or unrestricted all-files-access permissions.
When you start a batch operation, the App may continue reading selected metadata or saving your requested changes while you use another app or turn off the screen.
Background processing is initiated by your actions in the App. It is used to complete the selected operation and does not continuously monitor your device or automatically process unrelated files.
Before requesting notification permission on supported Android versions, the App explains why notifications are useful. You can continue without granting this permission.
Declining or disabling notifications does not by itself prevent file editing or background processing. Progress and processing controls remain available in the App. Android may also show an active foreground service through its own system interface.
When notifications are enabled, the App can show:
The current processing stage and progress.
The number of files processed.
A Cancel action while processing is active.
A completion or paused status after processing stops.
Progress notifications do not include audio content, album artwork, file names, or file paths. Notification visibility, including lock-screen visibility, is controlled by Android and your device settings.
Using Cancel requests that the App stop processing the remaining files. The current file operation may need to reach a safe stopping point first. Changes already successfully saved are retained; cancellation does not automatically undo completed edits. Remaining work can be resumed through the App where available.
Android may restrict or stop background processing because of system time limits, device conditions, or user actions. Interrupted operations may require review, recovery, or an explicit Resume action after you reopen the App.
The App does not automatically restart batch processing after a device reboot, process termination, or a system Stop action.
The App may store editing drafts, file references, selected images, batch-operation records, and temporary copies of selected audio files in app-private storage.
These local files support editing, progress tracking, verification, and recovery. Working copies and recovery material are removed as operations are completed or resolved and cleanup becomes appropriate. Unresolved drafts or recovery records may remain available until you resolve them or remove the App’s local data.
The App does not provide its own cloud backup or synchronization service.
Editing drafts, device-specific file references, working audio copies, batch records, and recovery information are stored in locations configured to be excluded from Android cloud backup and device transfer. Eligible preferences may be backed up or transferred by Android according to your device and backup settings.
Changes successfully saved to your original music files remain in those files until you modify or delete them. Uninstalling the App does not reverse completed edits.
Uninstalling the App or clearing its data can remove App-managed drafts and recovery copies. Resolve pending recovery operations before taking these actions.
The App uses Android system functionality and an on-device audio metadata library, TagLib, to handle supported files. These components support local editing.
The App does not integrate Google AdMob, advertising consent services, third-party analytics, or in-app billing.
Purchase and installation of this paid App are handled separately by Google Play under Google’s own terms and privacy practices.
If you select a file or image through a third-party document or media provider, that provider may store, retrieve, or synchronize content according to its own policies. InAudioTag does not operate that provider.
Opening an external website, including the Privacy Policy page, uses your browser or another system component. The website and its hosting provider have their own privacy practices.
We aim to minimize access to user files and use Android’s permission controls and app-private storage to protect local editing information.
Before saving supported edits, the App is designed to create recovery material and verify the result to reduce the risk of file damage.
No software or storage system can guarantee protection against every device failure, interruption, or technical problem. Keep an independent backup of important music files.
You control:
Which files you open and edit.
Which images you select for album artwork.
Whether to grant audio and notification permissions where Android requests them.
Whether to start, cancel, or resume batch processing.
Whether to retain or remove the App’s local data.
You can manage permissions and notification settings through Android. You can also clear the App’s local data or uninstall it using Android system controls.
Clearing App data removes App-managed information; it does not automatically delete your original audio files or undo changes already saved to them.
Krepel Studio does not maintain an App account or a developer-hosted music library for you. There is no such remote account or music database to delete.
If you contact us by email, we receive your email address and the information you choose to include in your message. We use this information to respond to your request and address the issue you report.
Please avoid sending audio files or other personal information unless needed for your request. Email correspondence is handled through the email providers involved and is subject to their privacy practices.
For questions about local data handling or information you have provided to us, contact Krepelstudio@gmail.com.
The App is a general-purpose music metadata editor and is not specifically directed to children.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the App. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us using the email below.
We may update this Privacy Policy when the App’s features, technical implementation, or applicable requirements change.
The updated policy will include a revised “Last updated” date and will be available through the App’s Privacy Policy link.
