Applicability Of This Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to Audio’s online tools, collectively called our “Services”, and other interactions (e.g., customer service interactions) you may have with Audio. If you do not agree with the terms, do not access or use the Services, or any other aspect of Audio’s business.
Information We Collect And Receive
Audio may collect and receive Customer Data and other information in a variety of ways:
Customer Data. Authorized Users relates to anyone who has created an account for the purposes of using the Services. Authorized users routinely submit Customer Data to Audio when signing up to use the Services, including name and email address.
Other Information. Audio also collects, generates and/or receives Other Information that is optional for the Authorized User to provide, and since this is an audio recording application, the audio that is recorded is stored for the purposes of playback.
Services Metadata. When an Authorized User interacts with the Services, metadata is generated that gives additional context about the way Authorized Users use the Services. For example, Audio logs the account, pages, and recordings that are interacted with, etc.
Log data. As with most websites and technology services delivered over the Internet, our servers automatically collect information when you access or use our Website or Services and record it in log files. This log data may include the Internet Protocol (IP) address, the address of the web page visited before using the Website or Services, browser type and settings, the date and time the Services were used, information about browser configuration and plugins, language preferences and cookie data.
Device information. Audio collects information about devices accessing the Services, including type of device, what operating system is used, device settings, application IDs, unique device identifiers and crash data. Whether we collect some or all of this Other Information often depends on the type of device used and its settings.
Cookie Information. Audio uses cookies and similar technologies in our Website and Services that help us collect Other Information. The Websites and Services may also include cookies and similar tracking technologies of third parties, which may collect Other Information about you via the Websites and Services and across other websites and online services.
Third Party Data. Audio may receive data about organizations, industries, Website visitors, marketing campaigns and other matters related to our business from our partners or others that we use to make our own information better or more useful. This data may be combined with Other Information we collect and might include aggregate level data, such as which IP addresses correspond to zip codes or countries. Or it might be more specific: for example, how well an online marketing or email campaign performed.
How We Use Information
Customer Data will be used by Audio in accordance with our Terms of Use to fully, properly, and legitimately deliver the Services to our customers. We do not sell or repurpose Customer Data.

With Consent. Audio may share Other Information with third parties when we have consent to do so.
Security
Audio takes security of data very seriously. Audio works hard to protect Other Information you provide from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access or disclosure. These steps take into account the sensitivity of the Other Information we collect, process and store, and the current state of technology.
