This Privacy Policy explains how Audio Splitter ("we", "us", or "our") handles information when you use our browser-based audio/video separation tool (the "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
1. Local Processing
Audio Splitter is designed to process your files entirely within your web browser. When you upload a video, it is loaded into your browser’s own memory and processed locally using client-side technology. We do not upload, receive, store, or access your original video files or the resulting audio/video files on our servers.
Because processing is local, you are responsible for the security of your own device and browser. Any downloaded output files are stored on your device according to your browser settings.
2. Information We Collect
We may collect limited technical and usage information to help us operate and improve the Service. This may include:
- Browser type and version;
- Device type and operating system;
- General usage statistics and feature interactions;
- Error logs and crash reports;
- IP address and approximate location (if used for analytics or security).
We do not collect the content of your video or audio files, their metadata, or any information derived from them unless you explicitly choose to use a feature that requires server-side processing and you consent to that processing.
3. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We may use cookies or similar technologies to remember your preferences, understand how the Service is used, and improve performance. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Essential cookies that are strictly necessary for the Service to function cannot be disabled without affecting your experience.
4. How We Use Information
We use the limited information we collect to:
- Provide, maintain, and improve the Service;
- Diagnose and fix technical issues;
- Understand usage patterns and improve user experience;
- Protect the security and integrity of the Service.
5. Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited technical data with trusted third-party service providers who help us operate the Service (for example, hosting, analytics, or error-reporting services). These providers are contractually bound to use the information only for the purposes we specify and to protect it appropriately.
We may also disclose information if required to do so by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of us, our users, or the public.
6. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing of your data. To exercise these rights, please contact us using the information below.
If you are located in the European Economic Area, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
7. Data Retention
Because we do not receive your media files, we do not retain them. Technical and usage data is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.
8. Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the limited information we collect from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Children’s Privacy
The Service is not intended for use by children under the age of 13 (or the minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have collected information from a child, please contact us so we can delete it.
10. International Users
If you access the Service from outside [Insert Jurisdiction], please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in [Insert Jurisdiction], where our servers and service providers may be located. By using the Service, you consent to such transfer.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the new policy on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.

Before relying on it for a live service, you should have it reviewed by a qualified legal professional in your jurisdiction to ensure it accurately describes your practices and complies with applicable laws, including GDPR, CCPA, or other local privacy regulations.
