Overview
WaveCraft is a local-first multi-track audio editor. Your recordings, imported audio and video, projects, and exported files all stay on your device. WaveCraft has no account system and does not upload your audio to our servers — including AI vocal separation, denoise, and other processing, which all run entirely on-device. The only personal data that leaves your device is what you actively send us via in-app feedback, plus standard anonymous diagnostics.
1. Data We Handle
| Data | Where it lives | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Microphone recordings | On your device only | Multi-track recording |
| Imported audio and video | On your device only | Editing & audio extraction |
| Projects, clips, exported files | On your device only | Your creative work |
| Feedback (message, optional email, optional screenshot) | Sent to us when you submit feedback | Reply and improve the app |
| Anonymous diagnostics & crash data | Aggregated analytics | Stability and quality |
| Subscription status | Apple / on-device | Unlock Pro features |
WaveCraft does not require an account and does not collect your name, contacts, precise location, or browsing history.
2. Microphone Access
Recording requires microphone permission. The system requests authorization the first time you record. Recorded audio is written only to the app sandbox for use in your multi-track projects and is never uploaded. You can revoke microphone access at any time in iOS Settings.
3. File & Media Access
When importing audio or extracting an audio track from a video, WaveCraft uses Apple's system file/media picker. Selected items are copied into the app sandbox for editing. WaveCraft only accesses items you explicitly choose and never reads your entire media library.
4. On-Device Processing (incl. AI)
All recording, mixing, effects, mastering, and AI vocal separation / denoise / vocal enhance / de-essing / loudness normalization / auto-mix / silence removal run locally on your device using Apple frameworks (AVFoundation and others). Your audio is never transmitted to us or any third party for processing — this is core to WaveCraft's design: your audio never leaves your device.
5. Third-Party Services
WaveCraft embeds no third-party advertising or social tracking SDKs. Purchases are handled by Apple In-App Purchase, and subscription status is provided by Apple. Anonymous diagnostics may be processed by analytics infrastructure operated by SignalRender Inc.
6. Subscriptions
WaveCraft Pro (monthly, yearly auto-renewing subscriptions, or a one-time lifetime purchase) is billed through your Apple ID via In-App Purchase. We do not receive or store your payment card details — all billing is handled by Apple.
7. Data Retention & Deletion
- Your recordings, audio, and projects: stored locally; removed from your device when you delete a project or uninstall the app.
- Feedback: retained only as long as needed to handle your request.
- Diagnostics: retained in aggregated, anonymous form.
8. Your Rights
Because WaveCraft is local-first and account-free, you stay in control of your data: delete projects in-app, revoke microphone access in iOS Settings, and uninstall to wipe all local data. For questions about feedback data you've submitted, contact us.
9. Children's Privacy
WaveCraft is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
10. Security
Your audio and projects are protected by the iOS app sandbox and device-level encryption. Data used for feedback or diagnostics is transmitted over encrypted connections.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date reflects the latest revision; material changes will be announced via in-app notice.
