Privacy
Super Simple Chords needs no account, on the website and in the iOS app. Make one only if you want what you save on every device.
What stays in your browser
The songs you save, the patterns you save, what you have heard and your last Playground settings are kept in your browser's own storage. They never leave it, and clearing the site's data removes them.
What stays on your phone
The iOS app keeps the songs you make, the songs and patterns you save and what you have heard in the app's own storage on your phone. It has no ads and no tracking. Unless you sign in, it sends nothing about you anywhere, and deleting the app deletes them.
If you make an account
An account is your email address, nothing else: you sign in with a code we email to it (no password). We keep the address and what you save to the account (the songs you made, the songs and patterns you saved) so they show on every device where you sign in, and a hash of each signed-in device's token. We never sell it or share it, and send no email but the sign-in codes you ask for.
To delete your account and everything it keeps, open your account on the website, or My music in the app, and choose Delete my account. It is gone at once, on every device.
If you talk to the assistant
What you write to the assistant goes to our server with the page you are on and what its player is doing, and from there to the services that read it and answer: TypeSafe and Anthropic. We keep the conversation (what you wrote, the page, the answers and what they did) to see how the assistant helps and to make it better. If you are signed in, it is kept with your account; if not, with a hash of your address, never the address itself. We never sell it or share it.
What reaches the server
When you share a song by link, from the website or the app, its settings and the name you gave it are stored so the link can open it. A song code shared by hand never reaches the server. With them we keep a one-way hash of your network address and the day, only to limit how many songs can be shared from one place in a day; the address itself is not stored.
Like every website, the servers that deliver the pages (Amazon Web Services and Cloudflare) keep short-lived logs of requests for security and to keep the site running.
Google Analytics counts visits to understand which pages are useful; it sets its own cookies.
