AI & Data Use Disclosure

Effective Date: June 18, 2026

Last Updated: June 18, 2026

SonifyMusic uses artificial intelligence to power core features. To provide them, some of your data is sent to third-party AI providers for processing. This document explains who receives your data, what is sent, and why — and we ask for your explicit permission before any of it is shared.

You can decline. Because these features are central to SonifyMusic, declining means the AI-powered parts of the app won’t be available. You can withdraw your permission at any time in Settings → Privacy → AI & Data Use.

We do not sell your data, and we do not share it with these providers for advertising.

Google (Gemini API)

What is sent: Your AVA chat messages and any attachments you include; and the prompts we generate from your uploaded tracks during analysis.
Why: To generate AVA’s responses and to analyze and score your music.
How Google handles it: On Google’s paid Gemini API service, Google does not use your prompts or responses to train or improve its models, and retains them only briefly to detect and prevent misuse.

Deepgram

What is sent: Your voice audio, when you use voice features.
Why: To convert your speech to text so AVA can understand and respond.
How Deepgram handles it: Deepgram does not train on your audio by default, and keeps it only for as long as needed to process your request.

Cyanite

What is sent: The audio you upload for analysis.
Why: To analyze your music’s characteristics (genre, mood, similarity) as part of your Soundscore.
How Cyanite handles it: Cyanite is an EU-based (German) provider and processes your audio under GDPR to produce the analysis; you retain ownership of your audio. Cyanite may also create anonymized, aggregated data — combined across many users and no longer identifying you or your audio — to operate and improve its service. Your uploaded audio is deleted when your account is closed.

Withdrawing your permission

You can withdraw at any time in Settings → Privacy → AI & Data Use. After you withdraw, AI features stop and no further data is sent to these providers.

Changes to this disclosure

If we add, remove, or change a provider — or change what data is sent or why — we will update this disclosure and ask for your permission again.
