# Privacy & Telemetry

What anonymous usage data MusicLaunch collects, and how to opt out.

MusicLaunch sends one small anonymous usage report a month to help us improve the app. It asks first: the first time you open MusicLaunch, a screen explains the report with a box that starts checked. Nothing is sent before you press Continue on that screen, and nothing at all if you untick the box. You can change your answer anytime in Settings → Privacy. This article covers only that usage report — for everything else, see the Privacy Policy at musiclaunchapp.com/privacy.

## What we collect

- App version and platform (macOS)
- A device identifier made by one-way hashing (SHA-256) a few details of your Mac — we receive only the hash, never the details themselves
- Which team features you use — counts only, not content
- How many Spark Plug ideas you recorded or added this month, and how they came in (Spark Plug, the phone inbox, AirDrop, Import, drag and drop), on how many days, and whether the phone inbox and the AirDrop prompt are on — counts only, never names or recordings
- Your team plan's name and how many profiles you have (a number, not their names)
- How many tokens your team used this month (for capacity planning)

## What the usage report never includes

- Your email address or name
- Your contact list, post content, lyrics, or any creative work
- OAuth tokens or API credentials
- License keys or payment info

## How to opt out

Settings → Privacy → toggle 'Anonymous Usage Data' off. Takes effect immediately. No further data is sent. (Reports already sent can't be removed afterwards: they carry no name, email or license key, so we can't tell which ones came from you.)

## Data location

Reports are stored in a database operated by MBG Creative Services LLC (the company behind MusicLaunch) and used only for in-house product analytics. We do not sell them or share them with anyone else.
