Simple Band Notebook

In short: the app has no accounts and no server of ours. We do not collect, receive or store any of your data, and there is no advertising, analytics or tracking. Your band's material lives in the storage your band chose, such as a Nextcloud server or a Google Drive account.

Who we are

Simple Band Notebook is made by Rutger van Krieken, At Daybreak Studios, Nieuwegein, the Netherlands. Questions about this policy: info@atdaybreakstudios.com.

What stays on your phone

The name you enter and a random identifier that tells your phone apart from others in a band.
The connection details of each band you belong to: the storage address, a login name and an app password. These are kept in the phone's secure storage (iOS Keychain, Android Keystore).
Copies of band files, songs, audio and photos you opened or downloaded, and changes waiting to be sent while you are offline.

Leaving a band, or using "Clear downloaded audio" in Settings, removes the related copies from your phone. Deleting the app removes the rest.

What is stored in your band's storage

A band is a folder in a storage service that the band's administrator chose, for example a Nextcloud server, another WebDAV server or a Google Drive account. The app writes there the band's name and colour, the list of members with their names and roles, an optional picture of the band and of each member, and everything members add to songs: notes, lyrics, comments, voice notes, audio, photos and documents.

Everyone in the band can see this material, including member names.
The storage is run by the band's administrator or their provider, not by us. Their privacy policy and settings apply to it. We cannot access it, read it or delete it for you.
Whoever sets up the storage is responsible for the data in it. If you want something removed, ask your band's administrator.

Permissions the app asks for

Camera: to scan a band invite QR code and to take photos for a song or for your picture.
Microphone: to record voice notes.
Photos and files: only the items you pick, such as a picture for you or your band, or share into the app from another app.

Recordings, photos and files go only to your band's storage and are not sent anywhere else.

Google Drive

A band can use a Google Drive account as its storage. If you or your band's administrator choose that, this is what happens:

The administrator signs in to Google in the system browser. The app asks for one narrow permission, drive.file, which lets it see and change only the files and folders the app itself created in that Google account. It cannot see anything else in the account.
The app creates a folder called "Simple Band Notebook" in My Drive, with one folder per band. Your band's material (see above) is stored there, between your phone and Google. It does not pass through any server of ours.
Google gives the app a sign-in token (a refresh token). It is kept in your phone's secure storage and is included in the band's invites, so that bandmates can reach the band's folder. Treat an invite like a password. Everyone who has such an invite can reach that band's folder, but nothing else in the account. An administrator can end all access by choosing "Reset access" in the band's Members screen, after which everyone needs a new invite.
The Google account's email address is shown in the band, to administrators, so they know which account holds the band.
Google's own privacy policy applies to the data stored in Google Drive. You can see and remove the app's access in your Google Account settings under security, third-party access.

Simple Band Notebook's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. The app uses Google Drive data only to provide the band features described here. It is not transferred to anyone, not used for advertising, and not read by people at At Daybreak Studios.

Invites and account requests

An invite contains the login details for the band's storage. Treat it like a password and share it only with people you trust. When an administrator asks for an account, the answer is encrypted so that only the person who asked can read it.

What we do not do

No advertising, analytics, crash reporting or tracking of any kind.
No sale or sharing of data. We do not have your data to share.
No accounts with us and no profile of you outside your phone and your band's storage.

Children

The app is not aimed at children, and we do not knowingly collect any data from anyone.

Your rights

Because we hold no personal data about you, there is nothing for us to access, correct or delete. For data in a band's storage, contact the band's administrator or the storage provider. You can also lodge a complaint with your data protection authority; in the Netherlands that is the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with a new date.
