The App

Data We Collect

Good Ear does not collect any personal data. The app does not:

• Require an account or login
• Use analytics or tracking services
• Send data to external servers
• Access your contacts, location, camera, or microphone

Data Stored on Your Device

Good Ear stores the following data locally on your device:

• Practice statistics (accuracy, scores, streaks)
• App settings and preferences (selected scales, tempo, voicing options)
• Subscription status

This data is stored exclusively on your device using standard iOS and Android storage mechanisms. It is not synchronized, shared, or transmitted to any server. You can delete this data at any time by uninstalling the app.

In-App Purchases

Subscriptions and one-time purchases are handled entirely by the platform store — Apple through StoreKit on iOS/iPadOS, and Google through Google Play Billing on Android. Good Ear does not receive or store any payment information, billing details, or account credentials. For information about how these providers handle your purchase data, refer to Apple’s Privacy Policy and Google’s Privacy Policy.

All fonts are self-hosted on this website. No external font services are loaded, and no data is transmitted to third parties for font rendering.

Your Rights

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the following rights:

• Right of access (Art. 15) — You can request information about what personal data we process.
• Right to rectification (Art. 16) — You can request correction of inaccurate data.
• Right to erasure (Art. 17) — You can request deletion of your data.
• Right to restriction (Art. 18) — You can request that we restrict processing of your data.
• Right to data portability (Art. 20) — You can request your data in a machine-readable format.
• Right to object (Art. 21) — You can object to processing based on legitimate interest.

Since the app collects no personal data, these rights primarily apply to data submitted through the website contact form.

To exercise any of these rights, please use the contact form on our support page.

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. The competent authority is:

Children’s Privacy

Good Ear is suitable for a general audience, including music students aged 13 and up, and is listed with a mixed target audience (13-15, 16-17, 18+) on Google Play.

Children under 13 (COPPA)

Good Ear does not knowingly collect, use, or disclose personal information from children under 13. The app has no accounts, no login, no analytics, no advertising, no location tracking, and does not transmit any data off the device. Because no personal information is collected, no data is retained on any server — local data on the device can be deleted at any time by uninstalling the app.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information to us, please contact mail@good-ear.app and we will promptly delete it. Parents may review, delete, and refuse further collection of their child’s information using the same contact channel.

Children under 16 (GDPR)

The age at which children can consent to their own data processing under the GDPR varies by EU/EEA member state (between 13 and 16). Good Ear does not rely on consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) for any data processing — no personal data is collected or processed in the app, so parental consent under Art. 8 GDPR is not required.

In line with Recital 38 GDPR, Good Ear does not engage in profiling, behavioural advertising, or marketing of any kind.

Google Play Families Policy

On Android, Good Ear complies with the Google Play Families Policy: no advertising, no third-party analytics, in-app purchases handled exclusively by Google Play Billing, no user-generated content, and no location access. The app does not request the advertising identifier (com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID).
