Our goal is to provide an enjoyable musical experience while respecting your privacy and giving you control over your musical creations.
1. Information We Collect
Retro Pocket Synth does not require account registration or ask you to provide your name, email address, or other personal information to access its main features.
However, certain information may be stored locally on your device or processed by third-party advertising services.

The App stores certain information locally on your device, including:
Synthesizer settings and sound presets

The recording feature captures the musical notes you play rather than recording sound through your device's microphone.
When you use this feature:

Playback reproduces your performance using the App's synthesizer sounds.

You can delete or share your saved performances.

Microphone permission is not required to use the recording feature.

Description of the issue
Screenshots or screen recordings
We use this information to respond to your inquiries, investigate technical issues, and provide customer support.

3. Privacy Consent and Tracking
Retro Pocket Synth respects your privacy choices regarding advertising and tracking.
Depending on your location and applicable privacy regulations, the App may display a privacy consent message when you first launch it.

You can choose:
Allow: Permit tracking for advertising purposes where applicable.
Ask App Not to Track: Deny permission for tracking across other companies' apps and websites.
Declining tracking permission does not restrict access to the App's main synthesizer, recording, playback, or sound-customization features.
You can manage your tracking permissions through:
Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking
3.2 Android
On Android devices, advertising preferences and privacy consent options may vary depending on your location, device settings, and applicable privacy regulations.
You can manage available advertising privacy controls through your device's settings.
4. Local Data Storage
Retro Pocket Synth stores your musical performances and application preferences locally on your device.
We do not operate a cloud database for storing your personal recordings or synthesizer settings.
Your locally stored data remains on your device unless you choose to delete, export, or share it.
Uninstalling the App may permanently remove locally stored application data.
Files exported to another application, external storage, or cloud service may remain available after the App is uninstalled.
5. Sharing Your Musical Creations
Retro Pocket Synth allows you to share your saved musical performances using your device's sharing functionality.
Sharing is always initiated by you.
We do not automatically upload, publish, or distribute your musical performances.
When you export or share a recording, the receiving application or service may process the shared content according to its own privacy policy.
We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party services before sharing your content.
6. Data Retention and Deletion
Your musical performances and application preferences are stored locally on your device.
You can delete saved recordings using the App's recording-management features.
We do not retain copies of your locally stored musical performances on our servers.

Third-party advertising providers are responsible for implementing appropriate security measures for information they process.
Although we take reasonable precautions, no electronic storage system or internet transmission method can guarantee absolute security.
