Privacy Policy for "EV Engine Sound" Mobile Application

Effective Date: 01 Sep 2025

1. Introduction

Welcome to "EV Engine Sound". We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information we receive through our mobile application. If you have any questions or concerns about our policy, please contact us at contact@nanospiel.at.

2. Permissions and Data Collection

"EV Engine Sound" does not require user registration and does not collect any personal information from users. For the app to function as intended, it requires the following permissions:

• Bluetooth (BLUETOOTH_SCAN, BLUETOOTH_CONNECT): To detect and connect to your vehicle's Bluetooth system. We specify that Bluetooth scanning is never used to determine your location.
• Foreground Service (FOREGROUND_SERVICE, FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MEDIA_PLAYBACK): To allow the app to run in the background and play your selected engine sound when triggered by a Bluetooth connection, even when the app isn't open.
• Run at Startup (RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED): To ensure the background service can be re-activated after your device restarts, allowing for seamless operation.
• Local File Storage: To access the media files you select for the engine sounds.

All these permissions are used exclusively to enable the app's core features on your device. No data is collected, stored, or transmitted from your device to our servers.

3. How We Use Your Information

"EV Engine Sound" does not collect any personal information and therefore does not use it. The app uses Bluetooth and file storage access only for its core features, and all processing is done locally on your device.

4. Sharing Your Information

"EV Engine Sound" does not collect or share any personal information. The app operates locally on your device, and all interactions and data remain on your device. We do not store any user details on our servers.

5. Data Retention and Deletion

The app does not retain any personal data. All data is processed on your device and is not transmitted to any servers. If you wish to ensure no data is stored, you can do so by uninstalling the application or clearing the application cache.

6. Security of Your Information

We prioritize the security of the information on your device. Since "EV Engine Sound" does not transmit any data off your device, there are no additional security measures required beyond those provided by your device's operating system and the app's permissions management.

7. Your Privacy Rights

Since "EV Engine Sound" does not collect personal information, there are no privacy rights related to personal data to assert. If you have any concerns about permissions for Bluetooth or file storage, you can manage them through your device settings.
