Privacy Policy
Last Updated: August 27, 2026
1. Introduction
Note Dance Studio ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information
when you use our mobile application Little Concert: Band Beats (the "App"), and describes
the security practices we apply to that data.
2. Information We Collect
We collect the following types of information:
- Account identifiers: a user ID (username) for every player. If you register with
email and password, we also collect and store your email address.
- Profile information you provide: nickname, selected or uploaded avatar image
(including a profile picture pulled from your platform's sign-in service, such as Game Center or
Google Play Games, when you sign in that way), and, if you choose to add them, social media handles
(e.g. Facebook, Twitter/X, WeChat).
- Gameplay data: song play history, scores, stars, note-hit detail, unlocked/owned
songs, instrument collection ("garage"), in-game currency and energy balances, player level/XP,
and content preferences (genre, language, year).
- Purchase records: when you make an in-app purchase, we verify the purchase with
the app store you purchased through (e.g. Apple App Store, Google Play, or another supported app
store) and keep a ledger entry (transaction reference, item, amount) used to grant and audit the
reward. We do not receive or store your card, bank, or other payment account details — those are
handled entirely by the app store.
- Rewarded-ad activity: when you watch a rewarded ad, our ad-mediation partner
(IronSource/LevelPlay, which may serve ads from networks such as AdMob or Meta Audience Network)
notifies us of the ad event and the reward granted, tied to your user ID.
- Device and app identifiers: a device identifier and platform (Android/iOS/web) tied
to your push-notification token, plus device model and app version sent at login.
- Diagnostics: crash logs, stack traces, phone model, and OS version when the App
encounters an error, used solely for debugging.
- App activity: in-app interactions (taps/plays), in-app song search queries, other
user-generated content (e.g. nicknames, favorites), and other in-app actions (e.g. reward claims),
used to operate and improve the App.
- App info and performance: crash logs, diagnostics, and other performance data as
described above.
We do not collect financial account numbers, health/fitness data, contacts, calendar,
precise location, messages, photos/videos beyond an optional profile picture, or browsing history from
outside the App.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information to:
- Create and authenticate your account, and keep your game progress and preferences in sync
- Operate core gameplay features: songs, scoring, instrument collection, currency and rewards
- Verify and fulfill in-app purchases and rewarded-ad rewards, and prevent fraudulent claims
- Send push notifications (e.g. new song releases) via Firebase Cloud Messaging
- Diagnose crashes and performance issues to keep the App stable
- Analyze aggregate app activity (e.g. play counts, search terms) to improve the App
- Respond to support requests
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for third-party advertising profiles
beyond the rewarded-ad mediation described above.
4. Data Storage and Security
Your account and gameplay data are stored on Google Cloud (Firestore), with local caching on your
device for offline play. All data in transit between the App and our servers is encrypted (HTTPS/TLS),
and data at rest is encrypted by our cloud provider's platform-level encryption. Account passwords are
never stored in plain text. Access to production data is restricted to authorized service accounts and
engineers.
5. Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services, which may process data as described in their own privacy
policies:
- Google Cloud Platform / Firebase — hosting, database, authentication support, and
push notifications (Firebase Cloud Messaging)
- App store billing (e.g. Apple App Store, Google Play, or another supported app
store) — processing in-app purchases and purchase verification
- Firebase Crashlytics — crash and diagnostic reporting
- ironSource / LevelPlay ad mediation (and the ad networks it mediates, such as
AdMob or Meta Audience Network) — serving rewarded ads and reporting completions so we can grant
in-game rewards
6. Children's Privacy
The App is suitable for users aged 4 and above. We do not knowingly collect personal
information from children under 13 without parental consent. If you believe we have
collected such information, please contact us immediately.
7. Your Rights and Data Deletion
You have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your account and associated data
- Opt out of push notifications via your device settings
The App does not currently have an in-app "delete my account" button. To request deletion, contact us
at the email below with your in-app username; we will delete your account data manually within a
reasonable time, except where we must retain records to comply with law, prevent fraud, or resolve
disputes.
8. Data Retention
We retain your account profile and gameplay progress for as long as your account is active. Raw event
logs used for debugging and analytics (e.g. login/session events, currency ledger entries) are
automatically deleted after 180 days; aggregated, non-identifying statistics may be kept longer.
9. International Data Transfers
Our servers are hosted on Google Cloud Platform. Depending on the service, your data may be processed
in the United States or other countries where our cloud provider operates. We rely on our provider's
standard safeguards for any such transfers.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant
changes through the App or via email. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes
acceptance of the updated policy.
