Policy
Overview
Album Rambler ("we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights in relation to it.
By using Album Rambler, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
Data We Collect
We collect only what is necessary to provide the app's features:
- Account data — your email address and display name, used to create and identify your account
- Ramble data — albums listened to, distance walked, duration, mood, and any reflections you choose to log
- Location data — GPS coordinates recorded during a ramble to draw your route map. Location is only collected while a ramble is active
- Health data — step count and workout data written to Apple Health, if you grant permission. We do not read any existing Health data
- Music data — album and track information accessed via Apple Music to power playback. We do not store your listening history beyond your rambles
How We Use Your Data
- To provide core app functionality — tracking rambles, saving history, and generating insights
- To display your route map and walking statistics
- To generate AI-powered album insights and recommendations (Premium feature). Album titles are sent to Anthropic's API for this purpose — no personal data is included
- To manage your subscription via Apple's StoreKit
We do not sell your data. We do not use your data for advertising.
