Privacy Policy

This policy explains how Feather Player (“the app”, “we”, “us”) handles information when you use the Feather Player iOS app and this website. If you have any questions, contact us at support@featherplayer.com.

We do not collect personal information. Feather Player does not ask you to create an account, and the app does not send your name, email address, contacts, location, music files or listening history to us.

To work, the app keeps the following on your iPhone:

• Your playlists, settings, equalizer presets and theme choice.
• Music Insights results (key, tempo, structure and similar details) so songs don’t need to be re-analyzed.
• Temporary cached copies of audio files so they can play smoothly.
• If you connect Dropbox, the access token that lets the app reach your Dropbox, stored securely in the iOS Keychain.

This data never leaves your device except through Apple’s own device backups (iCloud or computer backups), which Apple governs. Deleting the app removes it.

The app reads audio files from its folder in your iCloud Drive using Apple’s standard iOS file APIs. Those files stay in your iCloud account and are handled by Apple under the Apple Privacy Policy. We have no access to your iCloud account.

Connecting Dropbox is optional. When you choose to connect, you sign in on Dropbox’s own page and authorize Feather Player through Dropbox’s official OAuth flow. We never see your Dropbox password.

Once connected, the app communicates directly between your iPhone and Dropbox to:

• List the folders and files in your Dropbox so you can browse them.
• Read (stream or download) the audio files you choose to play.

Your Dropbox data is used only to provide these features inside the app. It is not sent to our servers, not used for advertising, not used to train machine-learning models, and not shared with anyone. The app does not modify or delete files in your Dropbox.

You can disconnect at any time in the app’s settings, or revoke access from your Dropbox account under Settings → Connected apps. Disconnecting deletes the stored access token from your device. Dropbox’s handling of your data is covered by the Dropbox Privacy Policy.

Songs are analyzed on your iPhone the first time they play. Audio is never uploaded for analysis, and the results are stored only on your device.

The app contains no third-party analytics, advertising or tracking SDKs, and it does not track you across other companies’ apps or websites. If you have opted in to share analytics with app developers in iOS settings, Apple may provide us with anonymous, aggregated crash reports and usage statistics. You can change this under Settings → Privacy & Security → Analytics & Improvements.

Any purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store. We do not receive or store your payment details.

This website does not use cookies or analytics. Like most websites, our hosting provider may automatically record standard server logs (such as IP address, browser type and the pages requested) for security and reliability. These logs are not used to identify you.

We do not sell, rent, trade or share personal information with third parties, because we don’t collect it in the first place.

Because your data lives on your device and in your own cloud accounts, you are always in control. You can edit or delete playlists and settings in the app, disconnect Dropbox, or delete the app to remove everything it stored. Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in the EU/UK or the CCPA in California), you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal data. As we hold no personal data about you, there is usually nothing for us to return or delete, but you’re welcome to contact us at support@featherplayer.com with any request.

Feather Player is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Connections to Dropbox use encrypted HTTPS, and Dropbox credentials are stored in the iOS Keychain. Data on your iPhone is protected by iOS’s built-in encryption.

If we change how the app handles data, we will update this page and the effective date above. Significant changes will also be noted in the app’s release notes.
