Who we are
Aural Ace is made by Greyledger, the trading name of Angus Taylor, a sole trader in the United Kingdom, who is the controller of any personal data described here. Contact: [email protected].
What the app does with your data
Microphone
With your permission, during a singing test the app listens through the microphone, from the start of the test to its end, and works out on the phone the pitch of the notes you sing. The sound is not recorded, saved or sent anywhere. You can refuse or turn off the microphone and play the notes on the app's keyboard instead.
Your practice
The grade and voice you choose and a record of your practice (which tests you tried, when, and how they went) are stored only on your iPhone, in the app's own storage, to show how ready each test is.
Nothing is sent to us
Aural Ace contains no analytics, advertising or tracking code and does not use the internet for its tests. We never receive your singing, your practice record or anything else from the app.
Purchases
The app is bought through Apple on the App Store. We do not receive your payment details or who you are.
iCloud and device backups
If your iPhone backs up to iCloud or a computer, iOS may include the app's practice record in that backup, under Apple's terms.
If you email us
If you write to [email protected], we receive your email address and what you send, and use them only to reply. We keep the correspondence for as long as needed to deal with your request and for our records, and delete it on request where the law allows. Our email is hosted by service providers acting on our instructions.
Children
Many people using Aural Ace are children practising for music exams, often with a parent or teacher. The app collects no personal data from anyone, children included: there is no account, no sign-in and nothing for a child to share. If a child emails us, we reply only to answer the question.
Your choices and rights
You can allow or turn off the microphone at any time in the iPhone's Settings. Deleting the app deletes everything it stored on the phone (other than copies in your own backups). Under UK data protection law you have rights to access, correct and erase personal data we hold, and to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk). The only personal data we can hold about you is email you send us.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted here with its date.
