Airshift privacy policy
Airshift is made by Johann Flores (dgtol.co). Contact: dgtol@me.com
The short version
Airshift has no accounts, no ads and no analytics, and I run no servers. What you put on
your station is public, because a radio station is. Nothing is sold or used to track you.
What Airshift stores, and where
Airshift stores its data in Apple's CloudKit, in a public database that belongs to the app.
Apple hosts it. Your identity there is your iCloud account; Airshift never sees your Apple
ID, email address or name unless you type them in yourself.
Visible to anyone using Airshift:
- the handle and display name you choose, and your avatar if you set one
- your station: its name, artwork, the list of songs in its programs, and voice clips you record
- your station's genres: up to three words Airshift works out from the songs you put on it,
or the ones you set yourself
- that you are tuned in to a station, unless you turn on Listen quietly, in which case you
are counted but not named
- who you follow
- a song you request from a host while they are live: your handle and the song, kept until the
host adds it or lets it go, and for at most a day
Stored only on your phone: handles you have blocked, stations you tuned in to recently,
whether you have bought the upgrade, the genres you told Airshift you like, and, only if you
turn it on, what Airshift counted in your own Apple Music library (genres and artists) to
suggest stations. Suggestions are worked out on your phone from those and from what each
host published. Nothing about what you listen to is sent anywhere, and there are no counts,
rankings or trends.
Music
Airshift never sends, records or stores music. Each song plays on your phone through your
own Apple Music subscription. Apple's privacy policy covers what Apple Music does with your
listening.
The microphone
Used only when you press record to make a voice clip for your station. Clips are uploaded to
your station and are public. Delete a clip and it is removed from CloudKit.
Reports and blocking
If you report a station or clip, the report (what you reported, why, and your handle) is
stored so I can review it. Blocking happens on your phone and is not shared.
Deleting your data
Delete your station and profile in Settings and the records are removed from CloudKit.
You can also email me and I will remove them.
Children
Airshift is not directed at children under 13.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted here with a new date.
