This Privacy Policy describes how Apes Audio (referred to as “we”, “our”, and “us”) uses and discloses the information that we collect from you when you visit www.apesaudio.com (“Site”), or use products, applications, or services that reference this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Services”). Our Services are diverse, so additional policies may apply in certain cases, which will be available with the relevant Services. These additional policies become part of your agreement with us when you use those Services.
For the purposes of applicable EU data protection laws and unless otherwise stated, Apes Audio is the data controller and is responsible for the collection and use of your Personal Data. This Privacy Policy is incorporated into the Terms of Use. Please read both documents carefully, as they contain important information about your use of the Services. If you do not understand our Privacy Policy or our Terms of Use, please contact us using the information below.
Key Definitions
“Aggregate Information” is information that has been combined with information about other users and analyzed or evaluated as a whole, such that no specific individual may be reasonably identified. For example, Aggregate Information may include a statement that says “50% of our users have used the mobile app in the last month”.
“Cookies” are text files, typically small in size, that are placed on your computer by a webpage server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
“Personal Data” is any information that can be used to identify you, either alone or in combination with other information. Personal Data does not include Aggregate Information or other anonymized information (including metadata) collected by Apes Audio that cannot be used to identify you, even if such information was derived from your Personal Data.
