Information used by the app
- Account information: email address, account ID, password authentication handled by Supabase, username, account type, and account creation information.
- Profile information: the handle, theme, background, profile photos, and song titles or artists you add to your profile. Profile photos are stored in a publicly readable image bucket; anyone with an image URL may be able to view that image.
- Connections and safety: friend requests and connections, blocks, live-room and co-host details, and reports you submit, including the report category, reason, and time.
- Audio you choose to share: if you turn on the microphone in a live room, your microphone audio is sent to room participants. A local music file you send from a deck is uploaded to your private account storage so it can be delivered to the live mix. The current app also includes soundboard clips that can be sent into a live room when you trigger them.
- Comments and mixer controls: comments and real-time mixer controls are sent through the active live room. The current app code keeps comment text in session memory and does not save it in the app database.
- Website requests: Cloudflare receives technical request information needed to deliver and protect this website. The exact request-log fields and retention settings are still being checked.
How information is used and shown
We use this information to create and secure accounts, show profiles, connect friends, operate live rooms, deliver audio you choose to share, receive safety reports, answer support requests, and maintain the service. Your handle, theme, background, profile photos, and song details may be shown to other signed-in users. People in a live room can hear audio and see comments shared there. Participants may capture or record audio outside the app.
Microphone, music, and live audio
The app asks for microphone permission when you use the microphone control. The local level meter measures input on your device. When you broadcast with the microphone enabled, audio is transmitted to the live room. The current app code does not include a broadcast recording feature. The production live-audio service is not configured yet, so its processing and retention behavior must be confirmed before this policy is final.
Music and soundboard files you send into a live mix are delivered to people in the room. Broadcasters does not own or claim rights to music or other third-party audio you choose to play. You are responsible for having permission to broadcast or reproduce it. Copyright or other rules may restrict recording, copying, or redistribution; unauthorized use may result in removal, account restrictions, claims, or legal penalties.
Service providers
The app is configured to use Supabase for account authentication, app records, and file storage. The current app configuration points to a staging project; production settings have not been completed. A LiveKit audio client and token API are present in the code, but production audio service settings have not been deployed. Cloudflare Pages hosts this website. Apple or Google may process information when you download or use the app through their platforms. The final provider list and each provider’s processing and retention settings must be reviewed before launch.
If you email support, your message and email address will be processed by your email provider and by the app operator so we can respond.
Retention and account deletion
Account and profile information is kept while the account is active. You can start deletion in the app under Settings → Account deletion → Delete account, or follow the instructions on the account deletion page. The current deletion function removes the account’s profile-photo and uploaded-track files, then deletes the account so related profile and social records are removed. Production deletion still needs an end-to-end check.
Deck files uploaded for live delivery may remain in private account storage until they are removed with the account; automatic cleanup of individual uploaded tracks is not implemented in the current app code. Provider backups, technical logs, and records required for security or by law may remain for periods set by the relevant service provider or legal obligation. Those exact periods are not yet confirmed.
Your choices
You can edit profile details, choose whether to enable the microphone, block or report accounts, sign out, or request account deletion. You can manage microphone and photo-library permissions in your device settings. To ask about your information, contact [email protected].
Children
The app’s minimum age and child-safety approach have not been finalized. This section must be completed before the policy is published as final.
Changes
We will update this policy if the app’s data practices or providers change. The final version will include its effective date and a way to contact us about questions.
