Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

At ChordFlow (available at chordflow.online), one of our main priorities is the privacy of our visitors. This Privacy Policy document outlines the types of information we collect, how we store and use it, how cookies are utilized, and how third-party services operate on our platform.

2. Local Storage and Preferences

ChordFlow is a client-side browser-based music tool. We do not require account registration, and we do not store your chord progressions or private data on any remote backend database. To enable features like saved chord progressions, tempo preferences, and drum groove settings, we store this information locally in your browser (using technologies such as localStorage and local first-party cookies).

3. Google AdSense and DoubleClick Cookies

Google is one of the third-party vendors on our site. Google uses cookies, known as DoubleClick cookies, to serve ads to our site visitors based on their visit to chordflow.online and other sites on the internet. These cookies allow Google and its partners to serve ads to your browser based on your history, interest profiles, and search intent.

We explicitly disclose that third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting the following links:

• **Google Ads Settings**: You can opt out of Google's use of the DoubleClick cookie for interest-based advertising by visiting the Google Ads Settings page.

4. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. Google Analytics uses cookies to help us analyze how visitors interact with the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website is transmitted to and stored by Google. We use this data to analyze traffic, improve usability, and understand page performance.

5. Cookie Consent

When you first visit ChordFlow, we ask for your consent to load cookies related to Google Analytics. You can accept or dismiss this consent. If dismissed, we block Google Analytics scripts from executing. However, please note that third-party ad networks (like Google AdSense) may still serve generic, non-personalized or context-based advertisements where allowed by law.

6. Third-Party Privacy Policies

ChordFlow's Privacy Policy does not apply to other advertisers or websites. Thus, we advise you to consult the respective Privacy Policies of these third-party ad servers (such as Google's Advertising Policy pages) for more detailed information.
