PRIVACY POLICY — Guitar Tuner
Last updated: July 8, 2026
Guitar Tuner is a free mobile app. This policy explains what information the app
handles, why, and the choices you have. We designed Guitar Tuner to need as little
of your data as possible — there are no accounts, no sign-in, and no analytics.
1. OVERVIEW
Guitar Tuner does not require you to create an account or provide any personal
information. Your settings live only on your device. The only data that leaves
the app is what Google AdMob needs to serve ads.
2. MICROPHONE
Guitar Tuner uses your device's microphone for one purpose only: detecting the pitch
of the note you are playing so the tuner can show how sharp or flat you are.
All audio is processed on your device in real time and is immediately
discarded. Audio is NEVER recorded, stored, or transmitted anywhere, and the
microphone is only active while the tuner screen is open. You can revoke the
microphone permission at any time in your device settings (the tuner cannot
work without it).
3. INFORMATION WE HANDLE
Stored on your device (not sent to us): your selected tuning preset and app
settings. This is removed when you uninstall the app.
Collected automatically by our advertising provider:
- Advertising identifiers (e.g. Google Advertising ID), device information
(model, OS version, language, coarse region), IP address, and ad-interaction
data — used by Google AdMob to serve and measure ads.
We do not collect your name, email, contacts, photos, or precise location, we
run no analytics of our own, and we do not operate our own tracking servers.
4. ADVERTISING (GOOGLE ADMOB)
Guitar Tuner displays banner and occasional interstitial ads through Google AdMob.
Ads are timed so they never interrupt you while you are actively tuning. Where
required (for example in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland), we show Google's
consent request the first time you open the app, letting you choose between
personalized and non-personalized ads. You can change this any time from
Settings -> Privacy options inside the app, or limit ad personalization at the
device level (Reset advertising ID / Opt out of Ads Personalization on
Android). See https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
5. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
Guitar Tuner is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children
under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your country). We do not knowingly
collect personal information from children.
6. YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS
Depending on where you live (e.g. under the EU/UK GDPR or the California
CCPA/CPRA), you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data.
Because we store no personal data on our own servers, you can exercise the main
controls directly:
- Change ad consent: Settings -> Privacy options in the app.
- Microphone: revoke the permission in your device settings.
- Delete local data: uninstalling the app removes all settings.
- Ad identifier: reset or opt out via your device settings.
For any other request, email us at allthemyth@gmail.com.
7. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
- Google AdMob & Google User Messaging Platform — https://policies.google.com/privacy
8. DATA RETENTION & SECURITY
App settings live on your device until you uninstall. Data handled by Google
AdMob is retained per Google's policies. No method of transmission is 100%
secure, but industry-standard safeguards are used.
9. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
We may update this policy from time to time; material changes are reflected by
the "Last updated" date above.
