2. Privacy notice
The app does not require user registration and does not intentionally collect account data, names, email addresses, contact lists, precise location data, photos, camera data, microphone recordings or private files from the user’s device.
When the app connects to the internet, technical data may be processed by the services required to deliver the app content and radio stream. This may include IP address or anonymized IP address, device type, Android/WebView information, operating system, access time, connection data, stream request data and technical logs.
3. Data processed
Depending on how the app is used, the following categories of data may be processed:
- technical connection data needed to access the radio stream and online services;
- local app preferences, such as selected theme and volume level;
- technical cache or app data stored by Android WebView, app runtime or browser engine;
- audio playback state and visualizer data processed locally on the device;
- basic interaction data needed for play/pause, volume, theme switching, visualizer mode and app display.
The app does not intentionally create personal user profiles and does not require login credentials.
4. Local storage & cache
The app may store limited technical data locally on the user’s device. This may include theme preference, volume level, app cache, WebView data, service worker/PWA-related cache where applicable, and other technical data necessary for app functionality.
In the current app code, local storage is used for preferences such as theme and volume. This information remains on the device unless deleted by the user or cleared by the operating system.
Users can clear app data or cache through Android settings. Clearing app data may reset saved preferences and cached files.
This page uses “cookies and similar technologies” broadly. The app may not use classic browser cookies, but it may use local storage, WebView storage, cache or similar technical storage.
5. Third-party services
The app may connect to or rely on third-party services necessary for its operation:
- Radio.co, used to provide the Global Radio stream;
- WorldTimeAPI, used to obtain or synchronize UTC time for the schedule display;
- Google Fonts, used to load the Orbitron and Space Grotesk fonts;
- Android WebView / browser engine, used to render the app interface and run web-based app functions;
- Hosting provider, used to serve app-related files, assets or updates where applicable.
These third-party services may process technical data and may apply their own privacy policies, terms, logging practices, security measures and data retention rules.
6. Radio streaming
The app connects to the online radio stream when the user starts playback. The streaming provider may receive technical connection data necessary to deliver the audio stream.
The app may use local audio processing features such as Web Audio API, analyser nodes, gain control, compression/limiting, visualizers and VU meters. These functions are used to improve playback, display visuals and manage audio levels locally on the device.
The app does not intentionally record microphone audio.
7. Device APIs
The app may use device or browser/WebView features to provide the app experience, including:
- MediaSession, to integrate playback controls with Android media controls where available;
- Wake Lock, to help keep the screen active while listening where supported and allowed by the device;
- Battery API, where available, to adjust visual performance or frame rate behavior;
- Vibration, for short haptic feedback when interacting with controls where supported;
- AudioContext / Web Audio API, for playback, audio processing and visualization;
- localStorage, for theme and volume preferences;
- service worker / manifest, where applicable, for PWA-style behavior, caching or install-like functionality.
The app is not designed to access contacts, camera, microphone recording, precise GPS location, SMS, phone calls or private files.
8. APK installation
The app may be distributed as an Android APK file outside an official app store. Users are responsible for deciding whether to install it and for managing their own device security settings.
Users should install the app only from trusted Global Music Recordings sources and should avoid modified or unofficial copies.
9. Terms of use
The app is provided for personal, non-commercial use. Users may not modify, reverse engineer, redistribute, resell, misuse, overload, interfere with or use the app in any unlawful or unauthorized way.
Users may not attempt to disrupt the radio stream, bypass security measures, inject malicious code, scrape app resources, impersonate the app, create unauthorized copies or use the app in a way that damages Global Music Recordings, its providers or other users.
