Privacy policy for the Rawda web app

1. What we collect

The information Rawda uses depends on how you use the web app. The main categories are below.

Information you give us directly

• Email address and password if you create an account with email login.
• Basic account details made available by a sign-in provider such as Google or Apple if you choose those login methods.
• Feedback, bug reports, feature requests, and related details you submit through the app.

Information tied to your account activity

• Liked tracks, playlists, followed reciters or artists, and recent activity.
• Playback-related preferences and account-linked library settings.

Technical data used to keep the web app working

• Authentication and session cookies needed to keep you signed in securely.
• Short-lived cookies used to complete OAuth sign-in flows and return you to the right page after login.
• Browser storage used for interface preferences, such as mini-player behavior, panel sizes, and sign-in prompt cooldowns.

2. How we use your information

• To create and maintain your account.
• To sync your library, favorites, playlists, and followed artists across sessions.
• To authenticate sign-in through email login, Google, Apple, or Google One Tap.
• To respond to support requests and review bug or feature submissions.
• To secure the service, prevent abuse, and troubleshoot product issues.
• To operate, improve, and maintain the Rawda web experience.

3. Cookies and local storage

Rawda uses a limited set of cookies and browser storage entries that are mostly functional rather than advertising-related.

• Essential cookies help manage login sessions and complete sign-in flows.
• Local storage keeps UI preferences on your device for a smoother experience.
• Blocking cookies or local storage may prevent sign-in or some personalized features from working correctly.

As of April 9, 2026, this web app is not built around third-party ad targeting or selling personal information.

4. How sharing works

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information only when needed to run the service or comply with the law.

• With service providers that support hosting, authentication, storage, and related infrastructure for Rawda.
• With Google or Apple when you choose those sign-in methods and their systems are needed to complete authentication.
• If required by law, legal process, or a good-faith need to protect users, the service, or our rights.
• In connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or asset transfer, subject to the usual confidentiality and transition needs.

5. Retention

We keep information for as long as reasonably necessary to operate the service, maintain your account, respond to requests, protect the platform, and comply with legal obligations.

• Account and library data may remain associated with your account until deletion.
• Support and feedback records may be kept as long as needed to resolve issues and maintain product history.
• Backups and residual system data may remain for a limited period after deletion or change.

6. Your choices and rights

• You can sign out of the web app at any time.
• You can clear browser cookies or local storage from your browser settings.
• You can manage many library preferences directly inside your account.
• You can request access, correction, or deletion by emailing info@rawda.app.

If privacy laws in your region give you additional rights, we will handle requests in line with applicable law after verifying the request.

7. Children

The Rawda web app is not intended for children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information through this service, contact info@rawda.app so we can review the situation and take appropriate action.

8. International transfers

Rawda and its service providers may process information in countries other than the one where you live. That can mean your information is subject to different privacy laws. When this happens, we aim to rely on reasonable contractual, technical, and organizational safeguards appropriate to the services we use.

9. Changes and contact

We may update this page when Rawda changes how the web app works, when we add or remove vendors, or when privacy law requires a different disclosure. If we make a material change, we will update the date at the top of this page.
