Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Q Radio ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to your privacy and protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding data collection and privacy for our Q Radio mobile application.

Important: Q Radio does not collect, store, or transmit any personal information or user data. While internet access is required for streaming radio stations, your privacy is our top priority.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 No Data Collection Policy

Q Radio does not collect, store, or transmit any personal information or user data. This includes:

• No user accounts or registration required
• No email addresses, names, or personal identifiers
• No device information, location data, or IP addresses
• No usage analytics, listening habits, or behavioral data
• No advertising identifiers or tracking information

2.2 Local Storage Only

All data in Q Radio is stored locally on your device:

• Favorite radio stations are saved only on your device
• App settings and preferences are stored locally
• No data is synchronized with external servers
• Your favorites and settings remain private on your device

3. How We Protect Your Privacy

Since Q Radio doesn't collect any data, we don't need to "use" or "process" personal information. The app's core functionality (browsing stations, managing favorites) works offline, but streaming requires internet:

• Radio station database is included in the app installation
• You can browse and favorite stations without internet
• Internet is only required for streaming live radio stations
• No external services or APIs are contacted for data collection
• No user data transmission occurs during app usage

4. Third-Party Services

Q Radio may link to external radio stations that stream content over the internet. However:

• We do not control or monitor third-party radio station content
• Third-party streaming services may have their own privacy policies
• We are not responsible for third-party data collection practices
• We recommend reviewing each station's privacy policy separately

5. Data Security

Since no data is collected or transmitted, traditional data security concerns don't apply to Q Radio. However, we recommend:

• Keeping your device secure with passwords and screen locks
• Using reputable app stores for downloading the app
• Regularly updating your device's operating system
• Being cautious with device permissions requested by the app

6. App Permissions

Q Radio may request certain device permissions for optimal functionality:

• Internet Access: Only for streaming radio stations (optional)
• Storage: To save favorite stations locally on your device
• Audio: To play radio content through your device's speakers

All permissions are optional and the app works without them (except for basic audio playback).

7. Children's Privacy

Q Radio is suitable for all ages and does not collect any personal information from users of any age. Since no data is collected, there are no privacy concerns regarding children.

However, we recommend parental supervision for children using internet-connected features.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Since Q Radio doesn't collect data, changes to this policy would primarily relate to app functionality or legal requirements. We will notify users of significant changes through app updates.

9. Free and Open Source

Q Radio is completely free to use with no hidden costs, subscriptions, or premium features. The app includes access to over 300,000 radio stations worldwide without any usage limitations or paywalls.
