Privacy Policy
The short version: everything Tunagram does happens on your own device — your Mac, or your iPad. The songs you import, the recordings of your practice takes, and your scores are stored locally and never transmitted — the app contains no networking code at all. There is no Tunagram account, no analytics inside the app, and no third-party tracking of any kind.
Two things sit outside that, and both are below rather than buried. This website collects something if — and only if — you fill in the beta invite form yourself. And while the app is in beta it is distributed through TestFlight, which is Apple's, and which reports install dates, session counts and crashes back to us. Neither is the app talking, and keeping them as separate claims is deliberate: merging them would blur all three.
What Tunagram accesses
Tunagram asks for your microphone the first time you sing a scored take — listening to a song never opens the mic. You can revoke the permission at any time under System Settings → Privacy & Security → Microphone on a Mac, or Settings → Privacy & Security → Microphone on an iPad. Beyond that, the app reads only the audio files you explicitly import as songs (via the import dialog or by dropping them on the library); it does not scan your disk, and it does not request access to your camera, contacts, calendar, location, or photos.
How audio is handled
Audio from your microphone is analysed in real time on your device, and it is used for one thing: comparing your voice against the melody of the song you're practising.
- Every scored practice take is saved on your own device — a recording of your voice plus the analysis alongside it. That is a feature, not a side effect: it is what lets you review a take and compare it with the next one. On a Mac the app shows you exactly where these files live (File → Reveal Practice Recordings) and they are ordinary files you can delete at any time. On an iPad they are held inside the app's own storage, which no other app can read.
- Songs you import are stored locally too, as separated audio and melody data — in Tunagram's application-support folder on a Mac, and in the app's own Documents folder on an iPad, where the Files app can see them.
- Nothing — audio, scores, history — is ever transmitted off your device, to us or to anyone else. The app has no networking code.
- Nothing is used to train any model.
Data the app collects
None. Tunagram has no account system, no sign-in, no telemetry, no crash reporting service, no advertising identifiers, and no embedded analytics SDKs. We do not know who you are, that you use the app, or how often you use it. Installing the app tells us nothing; the only way we learn your name is if you write to us, or use the form described below.
Network access
Tunagram makes no network connections of any kind — there is no update check, no telemetry, and no download inside the app. If a future version adds an update check, it will transmit only the information required to compare version numbers, and this policy will be updated before that version ships.
Files you create
Your imported songs and practice recordings are ordinary files stored locally, and they belong entirely to you. On a Mac they live in Tunagram's application-support folder, deleting the app does not silently delete them, and File → Reveal Practice Recordings shows you where they are so you can remove them whenever you choose. On an iPad they live inside the app's own storage, which means deleting the app deletes them with it — that is how iPadOS treats every app's files, and it is worth knowing before you remove the app if you want to keep anything. If you send a practice recording to anyone (for example, as beta feedback), that is your action and your choice; the app has no upload or sharing feature of its own.
This website, and the beta invite form
The claims above are about the app. The website is a separate thing and it is the one place anything about you is collected — so it gets its own section rather than a footnote.
Browsing tunagram.app collects nothing. There are no cookies, no analytics, no tag manager, no embedded fonts, scripts or images from anywhere else — the pages load no external resource of any kind, which is checked rather than assumed. Our web server keeps ordinary access logs, as every web server does.
If you submit the beta invite form, we receive exactly what you typed: your name, your email address, whether you'd be testing on a Mac or an iPad, and whatever you wrote about what you'd be practising. That is four things, and it is used for one purpose — inviting you to the beta, and getting in touch if we need to. It is not used for a mailing list, it is not sold or shared, and nothing about it is automated.
There is no form service in the middle, and no mail either. The form posts to our own server on our own hosting, which writes it to a file on that machine and does nothing else with it — it is not forwarded, not emailed onward, and not sent to any third-party processor. We read the file ourselves, and the beta invitation itself is sent through TestFlight rather than as an email from us. Requests are kept while the beta runs, so we know who is testing what; write to info@rocketcode.ca and we will delete yours.
Getting the app does involve Apple. Builds are distributed through TestFlight, so to invite you we give Apple the email address you gave us, and Apple's own privacy policy governs it from there — as does whatever TestFlight itself reports back to us, which is install dates, session counts and crash logs. That is Apple's telemetry about the beta, not ours about you, and it is the one thing on this page that isn't fully in our hands.
None of it changes the app. It still contains no networking code, so it cannot report back that you opened it, what you imported, or how you sang.
Children
Tunagram collects no personal information from anyone, including children under 13. The beta invite form is meant for adults; please don't submit it if you are under 13.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the revised version will be posted here with an updated date at the top. Material changes affecting how audio is handled will also be noted in the app's release notes.
