LuSID
Privacy Policy
Effective: 2026-04-30
What we collect
Nothing.
LuSID Synthesizer does not collect, transmit, or share any personal information, device identifiers, usage analytics, location data, contacts, payments, or any other data about you or your device. The app contains no tracking technologies, no advertising identifiers, and no third-party analytics SDKs.
Local data on your device
Audio recordings you create with the Record tab are saved exclusively to LuSID's private Documents directory on your device. They are visible to you in the iOS Files app under On My iPhone → LuSID Synthesizer. They are never transmitted off-device by the app. You control sharing entirely — when you tap Share, the iOS share sheet hands the file to whichever destination you choose (Files, AirDrop, Messages, Mail, etc.); LuSID itself transmits nothing.
Required Reason API declaration
In compliance with Apple's privacy manifest requirements, LuSID's bundled PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy declares one Required Reason API:
NSPrivacyAccessedAPICategorySystemBootTime— reason code35F9.1("measure elapsed time between events that occurred within the app"). Used by the sequencer ticker to advance steps in tempo. The information stays on-device.
Network access
LuSID makes no network requests. The app does not connect to any servers, APIs, CDNs, or third-party services at any time. The only data path off-device is when you explicitly share a recording via the iOS share sheet.
Tracking
LuSID does not track you. The app does not present an App Tracking Transparency (ATT) prompt because no tracking takes place — Apple's guidelines reject apps that show ATT prompts unnecessarily, and we comply.
Children's privacy
LuSID does not knowingly collect data from anyone, including children under 13. Because the app collects nothing, it complies with COPPA by design.
Changes to this policy
If this policy ever changes, the new version will replace this page at the same URL. Material changes will be highlighted in the app's release notes.
