Dulcimer ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how our application uses your data.
Summary: We do not collect, store, or share your personal information. Dulcimer is an offline-first local music player.
We do not collect any personal data. We do not require you to create an account, and we do not track your usage, location, or identity.
To function as a music player, Dulcimer requires access to specific permissions on your Android device:
Storage / Photos, Media, and Files:
Purpose: To scan, display, and play audio files stored locally on your device.
Data Usage: This data is processed locally on your device. We do not transmit your music library or file metadata to any external server.
Notifications:
Purpose: To display playback controls (Play, Pause, Next) in the notification shade while music is playing in the background.
Dulcimer does not integrate with third-party advertising networks or analytics services that track user behavior.
Since we do not collect user data, we have no data retention policy. Your preferences (like theme settings or playlists) are stored locally on your device and are removed if you uninstall the application or clear its data.
Our application does not address anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children.
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. Thus, you are advised to review this page periodically for any changes.
If you have any questions or suggestions about our Privacy Policy, do not hesitate to contact us.
