Who to contact
STech Technology UK Limited operates Beatlab by Bobby. For questions about privacy or your information, email b@weezboo.com.
Music in the native app
The current app stores projects and imported or recorded audio on your device. Music stays there unless you choose to publish a community preview or share a file. Device backups may include Beatlab data, depending on your system settings.
Beatlab does not place its own ads, track you across other apps or websites, or automatically upload the music you make. YouTube pages you choose to open may show ads under Google's own policies.
Community profiles and previews
Creating an account does not create a public profile. When you choose to join the community, we store your chosen handle, creator name and bio. When you publish a preview, we store its audio, title and caption. A moderator reviews these before they appear publicly. Your account email and login username are not automatically added to your public profile.
We store upvotes and follows to show counts and build your following feed. Your follows are associated with your public creator identity. Reports and blocks are private and available to the moderation service. Moderators can review reported content and restrict community access.
Vercel stores previews in private object storage in London. Beatlab checks publication status before serving audio. You can delete a preview from your creator studio; public access stops and the underlying file is queued for deletion. Account deletion removes your creator profile, previews, votes, follows, blocks and reports from the active database. Failed file deletions are retried automatically.
Community sign-in uses a necessary, secure session cookie. It is not available to browser JavaScript and lasts until sign-out or session expiry, up to 30 days. We do not use advertising or analytics cookies.
Your account and subscription
Your Beatlab account connects your subscription across devices. You can sign in with Apple or a username and password. If you use Apple, we receive your Apple account identifier and the name and email address you choose to share. You can use Apple's private relay address. Your sign-in session is kept in your device's secure storage.
For username accounts, we receive your username and password over an encrypted connection. We store a salted password hash, not your password. These accounts do not require an email address.
Our servers verify your login and Apple purchase records to manage access, renewals, expiry and refunds. We store your account identifier, profile, sign-in credentials needed to maintain or revoke access, and subscription records. We do not receive your payment card details.
We record when a signed-in account opens or returns to the app, at most once every 15 minutes, to count active users. We also use subscription records to understand renewals and cancellations. We do not record which notes you play, your editing steps or your audio. Activity records are removed after 90 days.
Account and subscription processing lets us provide the service you request. Security and aggregate usage reporting support our legitimate interests in running and improving Beatlab. We do not sell personal information or use it for advertising.
Optional app reports
In Account, you can turn on Share usage and error reports. This is off by default and applies to your account on that device. When enabled, the signed-in app sends feature counts, handled error categories, platform, app version and build, and the major OS version to our account service. Reports are linked to your account identifier and a temporary app session identifier. They do not include recordings, notes, project names, file paths, passwords or raw error messages.
We use these reports to find faults and understand which features are useful. Each category is reported at most once per minute. Reports stay in memory briefly before sending; unsent reports are cleared on logout or when you turn sharing off. Turning it off stops new reports. Stored reports are removed after 90 days, or when you delete your account. You can also contact us to request deletion. These optional reports are separate from the basic account activity described above.
Services we use
Apple provides an optional sign-in method and handles App Store payments. Vercel hosts our website and account service, Neon stores account records in a London database, and Cloudflare protects access to the owner dashboard. These providers process information needed to deliver their services. Their operations and support may involve processing outside your country, under their applicable data protection arrangements.
We keep your account records until you delete your account. Encrypted credentials needed to revoke Apple access are removed when revocation completes. Provider backups and operational logs expire under their retention settings. Apple may retain purchase and financial records under its own policies and legal obligations.
Microphone and files
The app asks for microphone permission when you choose to record. You can use the other music tools without granting it. Imported audio is copied into your project. When you import a video file, Beatlab extracts its audio on your device and saves that audio in the project. When you export or share a file, the destination you choose handles that copy under its own privacy policy.
YouTube browsing and link imports
When you choose Search YouTube, Beatlab opens YouTube or YouTube Music pages in an in-app browser. Searches, links you open and technical connection details go directly to Google/YouTube. Their pages may use cookies and display ads under their own privacy choices and privacy policy.
Beatlab uses temporary browser storage for this browsing session. Beatlab does not send your project, imported files or Beatlab account credentials to YouTube, or include your searches in app reports. If you choose Open in Browser, your usual browser's settings apply.
When you check or import a public media link in the direct Mac edition, Beatlab contacts the source site and its media hosts from your Mac. Those services receive the requested link and technical connection details, such as your IP address. Downloaded audio is processed on your device and saved with your project. Link imports do not use your browser's signed-in session or send your Beatlab account credentials to the media hosts.
The browser playground
The demo generates sound on your device. It does not use your microphone, upload your beat or send your editing activity to us. Your pattern stays in the open tab and disappears when you reload or leave. Save WAV creates a file for you to download.
The public website does not set analytics or advertising cookies. Fonts and images are served with the site; they do not require a connection to a third-party font service.
Direct Mac updates
The Mac download checks for signed updates and can download them automatically. Our hosting services receive technical connection details such as your IP address and app version. Update checks do not include your music or account credentials. Sparkle system profiling is disabled. You can change automatic downloading in the update window.
Website requests
Hosting and network services process technical details such as your IP address, requested page, browser information and request time to deliver and protect the website. Operational logs may retain these details according to the service's settings. We do not use them to build advertising profiles.
Support messages
If you email us, we receive your email address, message and any attachments. We use them to answer your request and investigate the issue. Email providers process those messages to deliver and store them.
We keep support correspondence while it is needed to handle your request and any related record-keeping obligations. You can ask us to delete it. Avoid sending sensitive information or private recordings unless they are needed for your request.
App Store payments
Apple handles App Store payments under its own privacy policy. We do not receive your full payment card details. Purchase reporting may give the developer information about sales and transactions. It does not give us a directory of buyers' email addresses.
Deleting data and making a request
In Account, choose Delete Account to remove your profile, sign-in sessions, password hash (if you have one), activity and subscription records from our active database. Your local projects remain. Account deletion does not cancel an Apple subscription: use Manage Subscription in the app to stop future charges. Signing in again with the same Apple account lets you restore an existing purchase. Creating a username account does not link it to a separate Apple sign-in account. Deleting a username account permanently removes that account; reusing its username creates a new account.
In the app, use Projects to delete a saved project and its recordings. Open another project first if you want to delete the current one. Exported copies remain wherever you saved them; delete those with Files or Finder.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal information, restrict its use, object to processing or complain to a data protection authority. Send requests to b@weezboo.com. We may need to verify that a request comes from the person concerned.
