Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 07, 2026

Pocket Radio is committed to providing a high-quality radio experience without compromising your privacy. This policy explains how we handle information.

1. Information We Collect

Personal Data: We do not collect any personally identifiable information (PII) such as your name, email address, phone number, or location.

Usage Data: We do not track your usage habits, the stations you listen to, or your interaction with the app's controls.

2. Third-Party Services

Pocket Radio uses the Radio Browser API to provide you with a directory of radio stations. When you stream a station, your device connects directly to that station's stream URL. These third-party stream providers may receive your IP address as part of the standard HTTP request needed to stream audio, similar to visiting a website.

3. Local Storage

The app uses local storage (SharedPreferences) on your device to save your UI preferences (e.g., Knob vs Slider mode) and to cache station lists for faster loading. This data stays on your device and is never uploaded to our servers.

4. Background Audio

The app requires permission to play audio in the background and show media notifications so you can enjoy music while using other apps.

5. Changes to This Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
