Privacy Policy

1Quick Summary

The full sections below are legally binding, but here are the essentials:

• Jammr records your voice. Recording happens only during the recording part of a dub, jam, or Mimic Party round. The microphone is never on in the background. See Section 3.
• A dub host can create a video room. In that kind of room, the App asks each player for camera permission and can film them while they record. You can decline and continue with voice only. The camera video has no sound. See Section 4.
• Other players hear your recordings and see any video you filmed. That is the point. Anyone holding a room’s four-character code can join it. See Section 6.1.
• A completed dub becomes a shareable video. When every line is recorded, a service we operate combines the clip, voices, captions, and any filmed video into one video file. Every participant can play that file and send it through the device’s share sheet, including to social apps or the photo library. Once someone shares it, the copy is outside our control.
• Your account is anonymous. We do not require a legal name, email address, phone number, or date of birth. There is no password and no sign-in step. If you contact support by email, we receive your email address and message.
• We do not show ads and we have no advertising partners. We do not track you across other apps or websites, we do not collect your advertising identifier, and we never show Apple’s tracking prompt because we have nothing to track you with.
• We measure how the App is used. We use PostHog, a product-analytics service, to count things like which game mode is chosen, how many rounds a party plays, and where a dub is abandoned, so we can improve the App. Usage data is tied to your anonymous account identifier, never to a name, email, or advertising identifier, and it never includes your recordings, your display name, or a room code. See Section 2.2.
• We do not sell your personal information or share it for cross-context behavioural advertising. We disclose it only to other players and service providers as described in Section 6, or when otherwise permitted by this Policy.
• We do not create voiceprints, and we do not use your recordings or clips to train AI models.
• If you submit a clip for the catalog, a person watches it. Approved clips are edited and published to all users. See Section 5.
• Most recordings do not expire on their own. Dub and jam recordings, finished dub videos, rooms, and submissions can be kept indefinitely. Mimic Party recordings are deleted when the host starts another game in the same room, but may otherwise remain. See Section 8.
• You can delete your account and data at any time from Profile in the app, or by emailing support@jammr.app.

2Information We Collect

2.1 Information you provide

Account. Your Jammr account is anonymous. It is created automatically on your device the first time you open the App, and it consists of a randomly generated identifier. We do not require a legal name, email address, phone number, or date of birth to create or use the account.

Display name. Asked for on the App’s first run, up to 40 characters; you choose it and can change it in Profile. Other players in your room see it. A copy of it is stored on each room you join, so the room can still show who recorded what.

Profile photo. Optional. You can take one with the camera or choose one from your photo library. If you set one, the other players in your room can see it — beside your name on the room’s roster, and beside your voice when the finished dub is played back. If you do not set one, a cartoon character is shown in its place. Nobody outside a room you are in can see it, and it is not public. You can remove it at any time from Profile; see Section 7.

Voice recordings. The audio you record during a jam part, a dub line, or a Mimic Party round. See Section 3.

Filmed video. In a dub whose host selected video mode, the video of you saying your line if you allow camera access. See Section 4.

Mimic Party choices and scores. The character you choose, whether you are ready, and a score calculated from the timing and loudness shape of each sound you imitate. Other players in that party see these details.

Room titles. For a jam, the song title and artist the host types in.

Submitted clips. If you use “Submit your own,” the video file you choose from your photo library, the title you give it, its duration and file size, the version of our Terms you accepted, and the time you confirmed you hold the rights. See Section 5.

Reports. If you report a player, a clip, or a room, we receive the reason you select and any detail you type (up to 1,000 characters), along with your account identifier and what you reported.

Blocks. If you block someone, we store your account identifier, theirs, and a copy of the display name they were using, so you can recognise and lift the block later.

In-app ratings and feedback. After a game — and once, at the end of the practice round the App opens with — the App may ask you to rate it from one to five stars. If you answer, we store the number of stars, any feedback you choose to type (up to 1,000 characters), which screen asked (which kind of game you had just finished, or the opening practice round) and, for a game, its room identifier, your platform and App version, and your account identifier. If you give five stars, the App asks your device’s app store to show its own rating prompt; anything you enter there goes to Apple or Google under their terms, not to us. You can close the prompt without answering.

Support communications. If you email support@jammr.app, we receive whatever you send.

2.2 Information collected automatically

Room and game activity. The rooms you create or join, which clip, song, or voice packs they use, your slot in the room, whether you are ready or have recorded yet, the number and progress of rounds, and timestamps.

Recording metadata. For each take: how long it is, a small timing offset used to line the audio up with the picture, and a waveform — a list of loudness values, one for every 50 milliseconds, on a scale of 0 to 100 — which is what draws the moving bars or character movement during playback. For a Mimic Party take, the App also calculates a score by comparing that loudness pattern with the sound being imitated, allowing a small timing difference. The waveform and score are derived from your audio. They are not transcripts, cannot be turned back into speech, and are not used to identify you.

Finished dub video. When a dub is complete, we create and store one video containing the source clip, each participant’s voice, captions, display names, and either filmed video or player images. See Sections 3, 4, and 6.1.

Push notification token. If you allow notifications, the App registers a push token issued by Expo for your device, along with whether the device is iOS or Android and the language the App is displayed in, so the notification can be worded in that language. See Section 6.3.

Purchases. Your subscription status, held by our purchase-management provider. We receive whether an entitlement is active — not your payment card details.

Technical data. Our service providers process limited technical data such as IP address and app version as needed to operate, secure, and troubleshoot the App.

Product-usage data. The App sends PostHog a record of what you do in it: which screens you open, which game mode you choose, when a room is created, joined, started, completed, or replayed, how many people and rounds a party had, which voice packs and clips were chosen, when you finish recording your lines, whether the paywall was shown and whether a purchase followed, how far through the opening practice round you got and what it scored, and when something fails. When you answer the age question on the App’s first run, the record also carries an age bracket — 13–17, 18–24, 25–34 or 35 and over — and never the number you typed; if you enter an age under 13 the App stops there and sends nothing about it. Each record carries your anonymous account identifier, a session identifier for the room, the App version, your device model and operating system version, and your language and time zone. The IP address the request arrives from is seen by PostHog in transit; we have turned off its use to estimate your location, so no location, even approximate, is recorded. It never carries your recordings, the waveform of your voice, any video, your display name, your profile photo, a room code, or the text of a report. We use this data only to understand and improve the App. We do not use it for advertising, and we do not combine it with data from other apps or websites.

2.3 What we do NOT collect

To be explicit, because apps like this often do collect these things:

• No advertising, attribution, or marketing measurement. No advertising SDK, no attribution provider, no advertising partners. We do not collect the IDFA or any advertising identifier, and we never present Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt.
• No cookies in the App.
• No precise or approximate location.
• No contacts, calendar, or health data.
• No date of birth. The App’s first run asks your age once and keeps only the bracket described in Section 2.2, never the number.
• No email address, phone number, or legal name for your App account. If you email support, we receive your email address and message.
• No third-party login. There is no Sign in with Apple, Google, or Facebook.

2.4 Permissions the App asks for

• Microphone. Asked during the App’s opening practice round, before recording, or when you mark yourself ready or start a Mimic Party. Used for recording your voice for the practice round, a jam part, dub line, or Mimic Party round. Never active in the background.
• Camera. Asked on entering a video-mode dub recorder, or for a profile photo. Used for filming you saying your line (recorded without sound), or taking a profile photo. You can decline filming.
• Photo library (read). Asked only if you choose a photo from your library, or submit a clip. Used for reading the one image or video you pick. We do not browse, index, or collect anything else in your library.
• Notifications. Asked when you ask to be told a dub finished. Used for sending that one notification. See Section 6.3.

Each is optional in the sense that declining limits a feature rather than the App: without the microphone you can still join rooms and listen; without the camera you can still record your voice; without the photo library you can still play.

3Your Voice Recordings

This section explains the most sensitive thing Jammr handles. Please read it in full.

What we record. Audio captured through your device microphone while you are recording a line in a dub, a part in a jam, or your turn in a Mimic Party. A jam part is capped at 60 seconds. A dub line follows the line in the clip. A Mimic Party take follows the short sound and recording window shown on screen. The practice round the App opens with records one such take, scores it on your device, and discards it: it is never uploaded or kept.

When the microphone is on. Only during an on-screen recording sequence, including brief setup immediately before capture begins. It is not active on other screens, not while the App is in the background, and there is no always-on listening. The App is built with background recording explicitly disabled.

What we do with it.

• Store it so it can be played back to you and to the other players in your room.
• For a completed dub, send it to our rendering service to create the finished shareable video described in Section 2.2.
• Play it during a Mimic Party and calculate the timing-and-loudness score described in Section 2.2.
• Derive the waveform described in Section 2.2 so the App can draw it.

What we do not do with it.

• We do not create voiceprints or any biometric identifier. We do not use recordings to identify, authenticate, or match you, and we perform no speaker recognition or biometric processing. Mimic Party scoring compares only the timing and loudness pattern described in Section 2.2; it does not analyze what you said or who said it.
• We do not use your recordings to train artificial-intelligence or machine-learning models, and we do not provide them to anyone else for that purpose.
• We do not share recordings with advertisers. We have no advertisers.
• We do not sell recordings.
• We do not transcribe recordings.

Who can hear them. Everyone in the room you are playing in. See Section 6.1 — this is the most important practical privacy consideration in the App.

Be careful what you say. Your recording is heard by everyone in your room. Do not say anything you would not want repeated. Do not record other people without their knowledge or consent, and do not record where others have a reasonable expectation of privacy. Do not include financial account numbers, passwords, addresses, health information, or other sensitive details in a recording.

Moderation. We do not pre-screen recordings made inside rooms, and we do not run automated content classification over them. Where a recording is reported by another player, a member of our team may listen to it in order to enforce our Terms of Use.

4Filmed Video in Dubs

Before creating a dub, the host chooses either voice mode or video mode for the whole room. In a video-mode room, the App asks each player for camera permission when they enter the recorder.

• You can decline. You can still record your voice; the finished video uses your player image instead.
• It is recorded without sound. The camera captures picture only; your voice comes from the microphone recording.
• It is per line, not continuous, and only around the time you are recording that line.
• Who sees it. The other players in your room see it in the result, and it is included in the finished video that every participant can share.

Filmed video is stored, used, retained, and deleted on the same terms as your voice recordings throughout this Policy.

5Clips You Submit for the Catalog

If you use “Submit your own,” a different and broader set of consequences applies. Please also read Section 5 of the Terms of Use.

What we receive. The video file you pick from your photo library, the title you type, the clip’s duration and file size, the version of the Terms you accepted, and the timestamp at which you confirmed you hold the rights to the clip. The last two exist for one purpose: to show what you agreed to and when, if the rights in a clip are ever disputed.

Where it goes. Into a private storage area that no other user can see, read, or reach, and a private queue.

A person reviews it. Every submission is watched by a member of our team before anything happens to it. Nothing is published automatically, and most submissions are not published.

If it is approved, it becomes public. We edit the clip — typically removing its dialogue, re-cutting it, choosing a thumbnail, and dividing it into lines — and publish the result to the catalog, where all Jammr users can see and use it. Your account identifier is not shown alongside it, and we do not attribute published clips to a submitter. The link between your account and the clip remains in our records.

If it is rejected, it is not published and no other user ever sees it. The record of the submission, and the video file, are retained as described in Section 8 unless you delete your account.

Limits. Clips must be under three minutes, and there is a limit on how many you can send in a day.

6How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for advertising. We share it only as described below.

6.1 With other players — please read this

Jammr is multiplayer, and the following is visible or audible to other people by design:

• Your recordings, to every player in your room.
• Any video you filmed, to every player in your room.
• Your display name, to every player in your room.
• Your profile photo, if you set one, to every player in your room.
• Your chosen character, ready status, and round scores in a Mimic Party.
• Your progress (whether you have recorded yet) while a room is in progress.

Your profile photo is shared only inside a room. Players you share a room with can see it; nobody else can, and it is never public. Remove it from Profile and it stops being shown, in rooms you are already in as well as new ones. If you would rather not show your face at all, do not set a photo — the cartoon character shown in its place is the default.

Anyone with the code can join. Rooms are joined with a four-character code or an invite link. Codes and links are shareable and can be forwarded, and we cannot control who receives them. Only share a code with people you want in the room.

Every participant can share a completed dub. The finished video can contain your voice, display name, profile photo or character, and any video you filmed. Any player in the room can send it through the operating system’s share sheet to Messages, social-media apps, cloud services, their photo library, or another available destination. We do not learn which destination they choose. Once shared, that copy is controlled by its recipient and the destination service, not by Chaptr. Screen recording and filming the screen are also possible. Do not record or display anything you would be uncomfortable having shared.

If you block someone, their recordings stop playing for you and the two of you will not be placed in the same room again.

6.2 Service providers

• Supabase — hosting, anonymous authentication, database, file storage, realtime updates. Receives everything in Section 2 that is stored server-side: your account identifier, display name, recordings, filmed and finished video, profile photo, submitted clips, room and Mimic Party data, reports, blocks, in-app ratings and feedback, and push tokens.
• Google Cloud Run — runs our video-rendering service. Receives, for one completed dub: its source clip, recordings, filmed video, profile photos, display names, captions, and timing data. Temporary working files are discarded when the render request ends; the finished file is returned to Supabase.
• Expo (Expo Push Service) — delivers push notifications. Receives your Expo push token and the notification’s title, body, and room identifier.
• Apple (APNs) / Google (FCM) — deliver the notification to your device. Receive the notification, from Expo.
• RevenueCat — manages subscriptions and entitlements. Receives your anonymous account identifier as its app-user ID, and purchase/receipt data from the app store.
• Apple App Store / Google Play — process purchases under their own terms. Receive payment details, which we never see; we receive confirmation that an entitlement is active.
• Expo (EAS Update) — delivers over-the-air app updates. Receives technical request data needed to serve an update.
• PostHog (PostHog Inc., US) — product analytics. Receives the product-usage data described in Section 2.2: your anonymous account identifier, what you did in the App and when, and device, App-version, language and time-zone details. Never your recordings, video, display name, photo, or a room code.

Providers acting as our processors may use your information only to provide their services to us, subject to our agreements with them. The app stores also process purchases under their own terms. There are no advertising, attribution, or marketing providers in this list, because the App uses none. PostHog is the only analytics provider, and it receives no advertising identifier and does not track you across other apps or websites.

6.3 Push notifications

Jammr sends one kind of notification: a message telling you that the finished video for a dub is ready to watch and share. You opt in per room. If you do, we store your device’s Expo push token, the language the App is displayed in, and your opt-in for that room. After the last line is recorded and the finished video has been created, our database sends the notification through Expo’s push service to everyone who opted in, worded in the language stored with each token. The notification contains the clip’s title and the room identifier. You can turn notifications off in your device settings.

6.4 Other disclosures

Legal reasons. We may disclose information to comply with a subpoena, court order, or other legal process; to enforce our Terms of Use; to protect the rights, property, or safety of Chaptr, our users, or the public; or to address fraud, abuse, or security issues.

Child safety. We report apparent child sexual abuse material to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and, as appropriate, to law enforcement.

Corporate transactions. If Chaptr is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you before your information becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

With your consent. We may share information for other purposes if you give us permission.

7How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide the App — run rooms, capture and store recordings, calculate Mimic Party scores, create finished dub videos, support sharing, and operate your account.
• Publish the catalog — review submitted clips and prepare approved ones.
• Process purchases — unlock paid clips for subscribers.
• Send the one notification described in Section 6.3.
• Keep the App safe — review reports, enforce blocks, remove content, and ban accounts.
• Fix problems — diagnose failures using technical data and, where you have contacted support, what you tell us.
• Comply with law — respond to legal obligations and process.

We do not use your information for advertising, AI training, or automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

8Data Retention

Be aware: most data has no scheduled expiration. Jammr has no general retention timer for rooms, dub or jam recordings, finished videos, or submissions. Mimic Party recordings are cleared when a host starts another game in the same room, but may otherwise remain indefinitely.

• Account (anonymous identifier, display name, profile photo) — until you delete your account.
• Dub and jam recordings and filmed video — indefinitely, until you delete an unlocked take, delete your account, or the dub host deletes the room or their account.
• Finished dub videos — indefinitely, until the host deletes the dub room or their account. Copies shared outside Jammr are not deleted by either action.
• Live Mimic Party recordings and waveforms — until the host starts another game in that room, removes you, deletes their account, or you delete your account; otherwise indefinitely.
• Rooms, rosters, settings, and other recording metadata — indefinitely, until an available deletion action or account deletion removes them. Mimic Party rooms are not currently listed for individual deletion in the App.
• Finished Mimic Party history — scores, durations, chosen sounds, player count, and room/game identifiers are kept indefinitely for internal product measurement. If you delete your account, your user identifier is removed from this history, but the game tally remains.
• Submitted clips (approved, rejected, or pending) — indefinitely, until you delete your account.
• Published catalog clips made from a submission — indefinitely; deleting your account does not remove a clip already published, and the licence in Section 5 of the Terms survives.
• Incomplete submissions (upload never finished) — deleted automatically, about an hour later.
• Content reports — kept as an enforcement record. A report about you survives the deletion of your account, with the link to your account removed.
• Blocks — until you lift the block or either account is deleted.
• In-app ratings and feedback — kept indefinitely for product improvement. If you delete your account, the link to your account is removed and the rating and feedback text are kept anonymously.
• Push tokens — until you delete your account, or the token is claimed by another account on the same device.
• Purchase records — held by our purchase-management provider and the app stores under their own retention rules.
• Product-usage data (Section 2.2) — held by PostHog under our account. In-app account deletion resets the App so future activity uses a new analytics profile; historical events remain associated with the former anonymous identifier unless they are separately deleted.

In the Rooms tab, dubs older than 24 hours stop being listed. This is a display rule only — the room, its recordings, and its results still exist and are not deleted.

After account deletion, we may retain aggregated or de-identified data that cannot be linked back to you, and records we are required to keep by law or as evidence of enforcement.

9Deleting Your Data

Deleting individual dub recordings. Before a dub is complete, you can undo your own submitted lines in the App. This removes their audio, any filmed video, and associated metadata. When the last line is submitted, the room locks so the finished video can be made; individual takes can no longer be changed or deleted. Account deletion still removes your source takes as described below.

Deleting a dub room you host. Swipe the dub in Rooms and confirm. Because you made the room, this deletes all of it: the room, every player’s slot, every take in it — including the other players’ recordings and filmed video — and the finished video if one was made. It cannot be undone, and the other players are not asked first. Only the host can do this; joining a room gives you no power over it beyond your own unlocked takes. Mimic Party rooms are not currently listed for individual deletion in the App.

Mimic Party recordings. Starting another game in the same room deletes the prior game’s live recordings and waveforms. A private history of scores, durations, sounds, and participation remains as described in Section 8.

Removing your profile photo. From Profile.

Deleting your account. Profile → Delete account. This removes:

• your profile, display name, and profile photo;
• every recording and filmed video you made, in every room;
• every room you hosted, together with the other players’ slots, takes, and recordings in those rooms (a room cannot outlive its host);
• your slots and takes in rooms hosted by other people;
• your submitted clips and their video files;
• your push tokens, notification opt-ins, and blocks;
• reports you filed;
• the account itself.

It also removes your user identifier from retained Mimic Party history. The remaining game tally is not deleted.

What deletion does not do.

• It does not cancel a subscription. Cancel that in your App Store or Google Play settings, ideally before deleting.
• It does not withdraw a clip we have already published to the catalog.
• It does not erase a report someone else filed about you; the report is kept as an enforcement record with the link to your account removed.
• It does not erase an in-app rating or feedback you gave; it is kept with the link to your account removed.
• It does not erase historical PostHog events automatically. The App stops using the old anonymous identifier and starts a new profile. You may email us to request deletion of analytics data tied to the old identifier.
• It does not erase copies of finished videos that a participant already shared outside Jammr.
• It does not delete other people’s recordings in rooms you merely joined.
• Because your account is anonymous, deletion is irreversible and we cannot recover anything afterwards.

You can also email support@jammr.app to request deletion. Because accounts are anonymous, we may need your account identifier to find your data.

10Security

We use commercially reasonable technical and organizational safeguards, including encryption in transit (TLS), encryption at rest for stored files, row-level access controls in our database so that one account cannot read another’s data, private storage for recordings, filmed and finished videos, profile photos, Mimic Party takes, and submissions, and short-lived signed links for private media access. No system is perfectly secure. If you believe your account or a recording has been compromised, contact support@jammr.app.

11Age Requirement and Teen Users

Minimum age 13. Jammr is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. The App’s first run asks your age once; an answer under 13 stops the App on that screen and nothing about it is sent or stored. We do not verify the answer, so we otherwise rely on the age representation in our Terms of Use rather than on verification. If we learn that someone under 13 has an account, we will delete the account and the associated information, including recordings.

Users aged 13 to 17. Jammr treats all users the same, and that works in a teen’s favour here: there is no advertising, no advertising identifier collection, and no tracking across other apps, at any age. The product-usage data in Section 2.2 is collected the same way for everyone, is tied only to an anonymous account, and is never used for advertising. The protections that other apps apply only to minors are the default for everyone on Jammr.

A note for parents. Jammr records your child’s voice and, if they choose, films them, and shares both with the other people in their room — who may be anyone their room code was forwarded to. Any participant can share a completed dub video outside Jammr, and screens can also be recorded by other means. If you have questions, or want a teen’s account and recordings deleted, email support@jammr.app.

If you believe someone under 13 is using Jammr, contact support@jammr.app.

12Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or export your personal information, or to object to or restrict certain processing. To make a request, email support@jammr.app. Because your account is anonymous, we may ask for information (such as your account identifier) to locate your data and verify your request. We respond within the time required by applicable law.

California. The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA) applies to businesses meeting certain thresholds. To the extent it applies to Chaptr, California residents have the rights described above, plus the right to be free from discrimination for exercising them. We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising — we have no advertising partners and run no advertising. We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information beyond the purposes permitted under the CCPA.

Biometric information. We do not create, collect, capture, or store voiceprints, facial geometry, or any other biometric identifier as those terms are defined under the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act, the Texas Capture or Use of Biometric Identifier Act, or similar laws. Voice recordings are stored and played back as audio only and are not processed to identify you. Filmed video is stored and played back as video only, and no facial recognition or facial-geometry processing is performed on it.

EU / UK / EEA. If the EU or UK GDPR applies to our processing, the controller is Chaptr Inc. at the address above. Our lawful bases are: performance of a contract (providing the App); consent (microphone, camera, photo library, and notifications, each of which you grant through your device and can withdraw in device settings); legitimate interests (security, moderation, abuse prevention, and keeping the App working); and legal obligation. You have the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection, and you may lodge a complaint with your local data-protection authority. We do not process your data for direct marketing. Where we transfer data internationally, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses. Contact support@jammr.app.

13International Transfers

Chaptr is based in the United States, and our providers process data in the United States and other countries. If you use the App from outside the United States, your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States, where data-protection laws may differ from those in your country. Where required, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or another lawful transfer mechanism.

14Hosted Policy Page

The App does not use browser cookies. When you visit this Policy at jammr.lol, the hosting provider may process ordinary request information such as your IP address, browser type, requested page, and time of access to deliver and secure the page. This Policy is focused on the Jammr mobile App and does not describe separate products or account features that may be offered on the broader jammr.lol website.

15Changes to This Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. Material changes will be communicated by in-app notice or a prominent notice on the hosted Policy page at least 30 days before they take effect. The “Last Updated” date above reflects the most recent version.
