Privacy Policy
Effective date: July 14, 2026
Data We Collect
We collect only the data needed to provide the app, stream music, maintain user accounts, and improve the service.
- Account data: your Tónar user ID, sign-in identifier, display name, and email address if provided by the sign-in provider.
- App activity: playlists you create, tracks you add or remove, music playback sessions, playback completion, release and track requests, and related library actions.
- Technical data: IP address, user agent, request logs, diagnostics, and security logs from our API and hosting systems.
- Notification data: if you opt in, an app installation identifier, device platform, app version, language, time zone, and your selected notification categories.
- Website analytics: cookie-free, aggregate page views and basic browser/referrer information for tonar.fo, processed with Usable Web Analytics without local storage or visitor fingerprinting.
The Android app does not request access to your location, contacts, camera, microphone, photos, videos, SMS, call logs, health data, calendar, or advertising ID. The Android app does not collect payment card numbers. If payments are offered on tonar.fo, card details are handled by the payment processor.
How We Use Data
- To let you browse and stream Faroese music.
- To manage sign-in, playlists, account state, and app preferences.
- To send only the device-notification categories you choose, such as app updates or new music releases.
- To measure playback, diagnose problems, secure the service, and prevent abuse.
- To understand aggregate usage so we can improve Tónar and support music catalogue operations.
Sharing
We do not sell personal data and we do not use personal data for third-party advertising. We may process data with service providers that help us operate Tónar, including hosting, authentication, storage, device notifications, analytics, security, and payment providers. We may also disclose information when required by law or to protect the service and users.
Security And Retention
Data is transmitted over HTTPS in production. We use access controls, authentication, and operational safeguards to protect the service. We keep account and app data while your account is active, and retain logs or backups only as long as needed for security, reliability, legal, accounting, or abuse-prevention purposes.
Your Choices
You can turn device notifications or individual notification categories on or off under Profilur at any time. Turning notifications off unregisters that app installation from delivery. You can also sign out of the app at any time and request deletion of your Tónar account and associated app data from inside the app or by using the public deletion instructions.
Children
Tónar is not directed to children. If you believe a child has provided personal data to Tónar, contact us and we will review the request.
Changes
We may update this policy as Tónar evolves. The latest version will be available at this URL with the effective date shown above.
