Welcome to Radioage. This Privacy Policy explains how Naveen Kumar Boopalan, sole proprietor trading as Adyantic Studio ("we", "us", or "our"), collects, uses, stores, and shares information when you use our mobile application ("Radioage" or "the App"). Adyantic Studio is the business name under which Radioage is developed and operated.
Radioage does not require you to create an account. We do not intentionally ask you to provide direct contact details such as your name, email address, or phone number to use the App. However, certain information is processed by the App and its service providers to provide radio, location-related, subscription, and diagnostic features.
Radioage uses device location for the "Stations Near You" and "Stations › Near Me" features. The App requests location permission when needed. If permission has already been granted, the Stations screen may read your current or last-known location automatically when that screen opens and when the App returns to the foreground.
You can revoke location permission at any time in your device settings. Location-dependent features will not work without the required permission.
When you launch Radioage and when you return to it after it has been in the background, the App uses GeoJS and, if necessary, Cloudflare as a fallback to determine your approximate country from your public IP address.
Radioage stores app preferences and listening-related information locally on your device. Depending on the features you use, this may include:
Local storage: This information is stored on your device using the App's local storage. Adyantic Studio does not maintain a server-side database of these preferences, collections, favourites, or listening state. Some temporary operational state, including the current GPS coordinates and sleep-timer end time, is held in memory rather than saved as persistent app data.
Search: Station search is performed locally against station information already downloaded by the App. Search terms are not sent to Radioage or to Radio Browser by the search feature.
If you purchase a Radioage PRO subscription or other in-app purchase, payment is processed by Apple or Google through the applicable app store. RevenueCat provides subscription-management services used by Radioage to validate purchases, check subscription status, manage renewals and restore purchases, and enable or disable PRO features.
For more information, see RevenueCat's Privacy Policy and the privacy information provided by Apple or Google.
Radioage uses Sentry, a third-party crash reporting and error-monitoring service, to help identify, diagnose, and fix technical errors and improve app stability. In supported store builds, diagnostic events may be sent automatically when the App encounters a reportable error, application crash, Android Application Not Responding (ANR) event, or iOS app-hang event. Ordinary development builds do not send events under the production Sentry configuration.
Information that may be included: Diagnostic events may contain error messages and stack traces; app version, build, release, and environment information; device model and operating-system details; language or locale; time zone; memory, storage, and screen information; and selected technical breadcrumbs describing recent app activity, app lifecycle, connectivity, or system events. The precise contents depend on the event, platform, and SDK.
Information and features not intentionally collected: Sentry sessions, performance tracing, replay, screenshots, view-hierarchy capture, and audio recording are not enabled in the current Radioage configuration. Radioage does not intentionally attach your name, email address, account details, purchase credentials, or RevenueCat App User ID to diagnostic events.
Privacy safeguards: Radioage sets Sentry's sendDefaultPii option to false and removes selected user and device identifiers from JavaScript and supported native events. URL-bearing HTTP breadcrumbs are dropped. In Radioage Android 1.7.0 (versionCode 53) and iOS 1.7.0 (build 6), and later versions that include this safeguard, the App also applies URL redaction to supported event text fields, including error messages, exception causes, breadcrumbs, and extra data, before events are sent. Earlier versions do not include this URL-redaction change. This redaction is a technical safeguard; it should not be interpreted as a guarantee that every possible piece of text generated by every third-party component is free of personal or sensitive information.
IP address and geographic data: Sentry necessarily receives network traffic when an event is transmitted. The current Sentry organisation settings enable prevention of IP-address storage, required data scrubbing, default scrubbing, and Enhanced Privacy. These are Sentry-side configuration controls and may be subject to Sentry's service behaviour and configuration changes.
Processing location and retention: Radioage's Sentry organisation is configured in the United States. Under the Sentry Developer (free) plan currently used by Adyantic Studio, diagnostic events are retained for 30 days. The retention period and available controls may change if the account plan, service settings, or Sentry's terms change. Radioage does not intentionally store Sentry crash-report attachments. See Sentry's Privacy Policy and Sentry's data-retention documentation.
Radioage relies on third-party services and radio-station infrastructure to provide its features. Those services may receive your IP address and other standard network information when your device connects to them.
Radioage/<version> User-Agent. When playback starts, Radioage sends a station "click" request containing the station ID to Radio Browser. Radio Browser may process request information under its own policies.clients3.google.com/generate_204. These requests expose standard network information, including your IP address, to Google. Android uses the operating system's network validation rather than this app-level Google probe.Unencrypted connections: Some radio stations provide streams or metadata over HTTP rather than HTTPS. Where a station uses HTTP, that connection is not encrypted in transit. The security and privacy practices of the station and its hosting providers are outside Radioage's control.
These third-party services and station operators have their own privacy policies and terms. Adyantic Studio does not control how independent radio stations, broadcasters, geocoding providers, network services, or content-hosting providers handle information they receive.
Adyantic Studio does not sell or rent your personal information. Radioage does not use the information described in this policy for third-party advertising or cross-app advertising tracking.
Information is shared with service providers only as needed to operate the App's features, including:
If you choose to share a station using your device's share sheet, Radioage passes the station name and a store link to the platform share interface. You decide whether and with whom to share it.
Information may also be disclosed where required by law, legal process, or a valid request from a competent authority, or where reasonably necessary to protect the rights, safety, and security of users, the App, or Adyantic Studio.
Radioage's preferences, favourites, collections, listening-mode choices, Recently Played list, and other app state are stored locally on your device and remain there until you remove the App or clear its local data, subject to the operating system's storage behaviour. On Android, the RevenueCat SDK may separately back up the anonymous App User ID using Google's Block Store so purchases can be restored after reinstalling or on a new device; removing the App may therefore not remove that backed-up identifier.
Radioage does not maintain its own server-side database of these local preferences or listening records. The App does not maintain a timestamped listening-history service.
RevenueCat's anonymous App User ID and cached subscription information are stored by the SDK and processed by RevenueCat under its own privacy policy and retention practices. Purchase records are also subject to the applicable app-store policies.
Sentry diagnostic events are retained according to the account plan and service settings in effect at the time. Sentry controls this retention and may change it if the account plan or service settings change. Diagnostic reports may be temporarily queued on your device while offline and sent when connectivity becomes available.
Where the UK GDPR or EU GDPR applies, we rely on the lawful basis or bases appropriate to the purpose and circumstances of the processing. Depending on the feature and applicable law, these may include:
The applicable basis depends on the specific processing activity and the law that applies to you. Where we rely on legitimate interests, those interests include operating and securing Radioage, diagnosing technical problems, and protecting the service from misuse.
Depending on your location and the circumstances, UK and EEA data protection law may give you the right to request access to personal data, correction of inaccurate data, erasure, restriction of processing, and (where applicable) a copy of data you provided in a portable format. You may also have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests and the right to withdraw consent where processing relies on consent. These rights are subject to legal conditions and exceptions.
To exercise a right, contact hello@adyantic.studio. We may need information reasonably necessary to understand and verify your request. Because Radioage does not require an account and some diagnostic information is not linked to a verified identity, we may be unable to identify a particular record from identity details alone.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection supervisory authority. If you are in the UK, this is the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). If you are in the EEA, you can contact the data protection authority in the country where you live, work, or where you believe an infringement occurred.
If you have questions or requests about information processed by our service providers, including RevenueCat subscription records associated with an anonymous App User ID, contact us at hello@adyantic.studio. We will assess and respond to requests as appropriate under applicable law and the capabilities of the relevant service provider. Because Radioage does not require an account and diagnostic events are not linked to a verified identity, we may not be able to identify or retrieve a particular person's diagnostic event from identity details alone. For purchase-related requests, an app-store order or transaction reference may help the relevant provider locate the record.
Our service providers may process information in countries other than the country where you live. Sentry is configured to process and store event data in the United States. RevenueCat, app stores, Radio Browser, geocoding providers, and radio-station or content servers may process information in the countries where they or their service providers operate. The legal and contractual safeguards for any particular transfer depend on the relevant provider and service arrangement.
Radioage is not directed to children under 13, and Adyantic Studio does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a child has provided personal information through the App, please contact us so we can assess the request.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the App, service providers, or applicable requirements. We will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy and, where appropriate, provide additional notice within the App.
