Privacy Policy
This privacy policy defines how we collect and use personal information about you that we collect when you use our websites or acquire an app or product shown on our websites. So that you can use our websites with confidence, AudioKit Pro strictly observes the laws protecting your personal information, and it is our highest priority to ensure that this information is collected, used, and managed appropriately. When using this website and our apps, please make sure that you understand this privacy policy, and provide personal information only if you accept the privacy policy.

We do not share your personal information
AudioKit Pro and the team members and contributors do not share your personal information with any third party without your consent. AudioKit Pro may provide your personal information if we are ordered to do so in accordance with the laws of the applicable country.

Access log files
AudioKit Pro uses access log files to analyze app and website usage trends, site management, user trends, and broad demographic data. From this data, we are able to obtain overall site usage data such as the pages that were visited, the time spent on each page, the immediately preceding location from which the site was accessed, how users transition between pages, and the browser and operating system that are used.

Crash Logs
By default, if one of our apps crashes while you’re using it, anonymized data about the crash will be collected to help us identify the cause of the crash and hopefully fix it in a future update. These “crash logs” contain information such as the state of the app, operating system, and device at the time of the crash, but not your private data. Apple may also collect crash logs if the privacy settings of your device allow it.
