Orpheus β World Radio Stations Policy
This Policy explains what data Orpheus β World Radio Stations (the "App") processes and why, in accordance with GDPR.
1. Controller
- Developer: Ekaterina Varvara Kokaj
- Email: contact@kotoolabs.com
No Data Protection Officer is appointed, as none is required at this processing scale under Art. 37 GDPR.
2. Data We Process
The app uses Firebase Crashlytics (crash reports), Firebase Performance Monitoring (aggregate performance metrics), and Firebase Analytics (basic app-usage events) β all Google LLC / Google Ireland Ltd. services. These include general device attributes (model, OS version), a city-level IP-derived location, and a pseudonymous, resettable per-installation identifier (app_instance_id) used only to group events from the same install. None of this is linked to your name, account, or an advertising identifier β the App does not use the IDFA, does not serve ads, and does not request App Tracking Transparency authorization.
The App also fetches radio station metadata from the open Radio-Browser API (api.radio-browser.info); this involves only standard connection data (e.g., IP address) inherent to any web request.
Reminders you set are stored locally on your device only and are never transmitted to the Developer or any third party.
3. Purposes and Legal Basis (GDPR Art. 6)
Diagnosing crashes and performance issues β Art. 6(1)(f), legitimate interest.
Local reminder notifications, which you enable via the iOS permission prompt and can revoke anytime in iOS Settings β Art. 6(1)(a), consent.
Delivering the App and processing any optional in-app purchase β Art. 6(1)(b), contract.
4. Recipients & International Transfers
Data processors: Google LLC / Google Ireland Ltd. (Firebase) and Apple Inc. (in-app purchase processing only β the Developer never receives your payment details). Firebase may process data outside the EEA, including in the US, under appropriate safeguards such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses. Retention follows Google's standard Firebase periods; the Developer keeps no separate copy.
5. Your Rights
Under the GDPR you have the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection, and the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Because App data is not linked to any identifier, the Developer generally cannot match stored technical events to a specific person, but you can contact the Developer at the email in Section 1 with any request.
Lead supervisory authority: Berliner Beauftragte fΓΌr Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit, Alt-Moabit 59β61, 10555 Berlin, Germany. Email: mailbox@datenschutz-berlin.de Β· Web: www.datenschutz-berlin.de.
