1. Introduction

Grace Waves ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information when you use our mobile application (the "App").

2. Data Collection and Usage

We do not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data. Grace Waves is designed to be a privacy-first application. All your settings, podcast subscriptions, and listening history are stored locally on your device.

3. Required Permissions

To provide our core features, the App requests the following device permissions:

• Internet Access: Required to stream live radio stations, fetch podcast feeds, and download audio content.
• Microphone / Audio Recording: Required exclusively for the App's "Radio Recording" feature. The audio stream is captured and saved directly to your device's local storage. We do not listen to, upload, or have access to any of your recordings.
• Storage (Read/Write): Required to save your downloaded podcasts and radio recordings locally, and to read your local audio files for playback.
• Wake Lock / Background Processing: Required to keep the audio playing and scheduled recordings running while your phone screen is off.

4. Third-Party Services

The App may fetch content (such as podcast episodes or radio streams) directly from third-party RSS feeds and streaming servers. These third-party services may collect your IP address when your device connects to them to download content. We do not control these third-party privacy practices.
