Sonare Privacy Policy.

1. Scope and Who We Are

This Privacy Policy applies to the Sonare mobile application, the website at sonareoperations.com, and privacy-related communications with Sonare Operations LLC.

Sonare is operated by Sonare Operations LLC. Sonare intellectual-property materials are held by Sonare IP Systems LLC or used under authorization. In this policy, “Sonare,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the applicable Sonare entity responsible for the relevant activity.

2. Information in the Sonare App

The current release of Sonare does not require account creation and does not directly collect personal listening histories or user-generated content.

The current app does not request or directly collect:

• Precise or approximate location
• Contacts, messages, photos, or files unrelated to app operation
• Microphone or camera data
• Health, fitness, biometric, or medical information
• Advertising identifiers for targeted advertising
• Complete payment-card information

The current release does not include third-party advertising or Sonare-controlled in-app analytics tracking. Session audio and visual assets may be stored locally on the device to support playback and offline access.

3. Purchases, Trials, and Subscriptions

Sonare may offer free access, trial access, subscriptions, or other in-app purchases. Apple App Store and Google Play process those transactions through the store account used for purchase.

The applicable store manages payment information, transaction records, subscription renewal, cancellation, taxes, and refund eligibility. Sonare Operations LLC does not receive or store your complete payment-card number.

The app or applicable store may use limited purchase or entitlement status to determine whether premium access is active. Apple and Google handle their information under their own privacy policies, terms, and account settings.

4. Website Data and Cookies

This website is hosted by Squarespace. Squarespace and its infrastructure may process technical and usage information needed to deliver, secure, and measure the site, such as IP address, browser or device information, pages viewed, referral information, and access timestamps.

Squarespace uses essential cookies to operate its services and may use analytics or performance cookies to provide traffic reporting. Available cookie choices depend on the site’s cookie settings, visitor location, and consent selections.

Sonare uses this information in aggregate to understand website traffic, maintain security, diagnose problems, and improve navigation and content. We do not use the website to sell personal information or serve targeted advertising.

5. Support and Other Communications

If you email Sonare or otherwise contact us, we receive the information you choose to provide, such as your email address, message, device model, operating-system version, session name, or support details.

We use that information to respond, provide support, investigate issues, maintain appropriate business records, protect the service, and comply with legal obligations. Do not send passwords, complete payment-card numbers, health records, or other information that is not necessary for the request.

6. How Information May Be Shared

Sonare does not sell personal information. We may disclose limited information in the following circumstances:

• To service providers that host, secure, support, or operate the website and communications
• To Apple, Google, device platforms, or related services involved in app delivery, subscriptions, security, or support
• When reasonably necessary to comply with law, legal process, or enforceable government requests
• To protect users, Sonare, intellectual property, or the rights and safety of others
• As part of a business transaction, subject to appropriate confidentiality and legal requirements

Third-party services process information under their own terms and privacy policies.

7. Retention and Security

Because the current app does not require a Sonare account or directly collect personal listening data, Sonare does not maintain a Sonare account database containing those records.

Website, security, and communication records are retained only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including support, fraud prevention, security, business records, dispute resolution, and legal compliance. Retention periods used by Apple, Google, Squarespace, email providers, or other platforms are controlled by those providers.

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures appropriate to the information we control. No transmission, device, or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.

8. Children

Sonare is not directed to children and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the app. If you believe a child has provided personal information directly to Sonare, contact us so we can review and address the request.

9. Your Choices and Privacy Rights

You can manage app-store purchases and subscriptions through the Apple or Google account used for the transaction. You can also manage device permissions and applicable cookie choices through your device, browser, or the website’s cookie controls.

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding personal information Sonare controls, such as requesting access, correction, deletion, or information about processing. These rights may be subject to legal exceptions and verification requirements.

To submit a privacy request, email admin@sonareoperations.com. Please describe the request without sending unnecessary sensitive information.

10. International Use

Sonare and its service providers may operate in different countries. Information handled through website hosting, app stores, or communications may therefore be processed in jurisdictions with different data-protection laws, subject to the safeguards used by the applicable provider and requirements of law.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy when Sonare’s features, providers, or legal obligations change. The effective date at the top will be revised when an updated policy is published. Material changes will be communicated through the website, app, store listing, or another appropriate method when required.
