Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 4, 2026

This Privacy Policy, provided by Sparkplg ("We," "Our," "Us," or "Sparkplg"), is based on Our respect for Your privacy. We are committed to the responsible handling and protection of Your personal information.

This Privacy Policy governs the manner in which We collect, use, maintain, and disclose information collected from users ("Users," "You," or "Your") of the Sparkplg App and all of Our Services. This Privacy Policy applies to all information collected or submitted on Sparkplg's website and Our apps for iPhone and any other devices and platforms.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to any third-party websites or platforms. To understand how any third party (including Apple and Google) treats Your information, You should read their own privacy policies. By downloading and/or registering to use Our mobile app ("Sparkplg App"), visiting Our website (currently located at https://sparkplg.com), or accessing or using Our Services, You have agreed to be subject to this Privacy Policy, as well as Our Terms of Service.

Please read this entire Privacy Policy BEFORE using any of Our Services. Do not use any of Our Services if You are unwilling or ineligible to accept the terms of this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

We consider "Personal Information" to be information that identifies an individual (like a name or email address) or that relates to an identifiable individual (like an IP address).

Account Information: When You create an account on the Sparkplg App, You provide Us with the following Personal Information: Your email address and password. Your password is encrypted and We never see or have access to it. You may optionally provide Your name.

• Tracks You listen to, play history, and listening duration
• Playlists You create
• Tracks You like or save
• Categories and content You interact with

We carry out this processing for the purposes of providing personalized recommendations and improving Our Services. We do not use Your Usage Data for identification purposes, but may use such data as anonymous or aggregated information.

Device Information: We may collect information about Your device, including device type, operating system, unique device identifiers, browser type, and IP address.

Third-Party Sources: If You create or log into Your account through a third-party service (such as Apple Sign-In or Google), We may have access to certain information from that account, such as Your name and email address, in accordance with the authorization procedures set by that service.

2. Information Collected When You Make Purchases

We do not collect or process credit or debit card data for Your purchase of any Sparkplg products or services. Apple and Google collect such data with respect to in-app purchases made through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store (collectively, "Payment Processors").

Payment Processors will utilize Your financial information in order to process Your payments. By utilizing Our Services, You agree that You are bound by the applicable Payment Processor's terms and policies.

We have no control over, and are not responsible for, any Payment Processor's use of Your Personal Information. We do not receive or store any of Your financial information as part of Your transactions with such Payment Processors.

3. How We Use Your Information

5. Analytics Tools

We may use third-party analytics tools to monitor and analyze the use of Our Services and collect usage information. These analytics tools collect information about how Users interact with Our Services, such as how often Users access the app, what content they engage with, and device information including IP addresses.

The analytics tools' ability to use and share information about Your use of Our Services is governed by the applicable third party's terms and privacy policies.

6. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website may use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to customize and improve Your experience, analyze trends, and gather demographic information. A cookie is a small data file stored on Your device used to identify the user and collect information.

You can manage cookies in Your browser settings. If You choose to disable cookies, certain functions and features may not work as intended.

7. Data Storage and Security

Sparkplg takes data security seriously, and We use appropriate technologies and procedures to protect Personal Information in accordance with industry standards. Your data is stored securely using industry-standard encryption. We use Supabase as Our backend service provider, which employs robust security practices.

Our Services may be hosted on servers located outside the country in which You reside, including in the United States. By using Our Services, You consent to the transfer, storage, and processing of information as described in this Privacy Policy.

Unfortunately, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. While We implement commercially reasonable security measures, We cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information that You transmit to Us.

8. Data Retention

We retain Your Personal Information for as long as Your account is active or as needed to provide You with Our Services. We may retain Your Personal Information even after You have closed Your account if retention is reasonably necessary to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, or enforce this Privacy Policy and Our Terms of Service.

When We no longer need Personal Information for such purposes, We will delete or anonymize it in accordance with Our security procedures. When You delete Your account, We will delete or anonymize Your Personal Information within 30 days, unless We are required to retain it for legal purposes.

9. Data Deletion

You can request all data associated with Your account to be permanently deleted from Our Services at any time. You may delete Your account directly within the Sparkplg App through Your account settings. You may also request data deletion by contacting Us at [email protected] and We will act promptly.

Please note that permanently deleting Your account will erase all of Your Personal Information stored by Us and Our service providers. Consequently, You will no longer be able to use or access the Services and Your account cannot be restored.
