Privacy Policy

Reverse Voice & Song Challenge

Reverse Voice & Song Challenge records your voice or singing, plays it back in reverse for the challenge, and turns you into a personalized emoji. This policy explains exactly what leaves your phone when you do that, what we keep, and what we don't. It covers the Android app distributed on Google Play and nothing else.

The short version is in the panel below. Everything after it is the same story told properly.

At a glance What the app does with your data
Your recordings
Captured with the microphone, reversed and processed on your device, and saved only there. We never upload them and never listen to them.
Your emoji
Personalized emoji are built from the choices and inputs you give in the app and stored on your device. There is no account and no cloud copy.
Advertising
Google AdMob serves the ads and receives your Advertising ID, approximate location by IP, and device details.
Subscriptions
Handled entirely by Google Play. We never see your card number — only whether a subscription is active.
Selling data
We don't. Not now, not as part of any future deal.

Who we are

Reverse Voice & Song Challenge is published by Pol Teams ("we", "us"). We are the data controller for the information described here.

For anything in this policy — a question, a complaint, a request to delete something — write to nguyenvanchuug@gmail.com. A human reads that inbox.

Your recordings and microphone

This is the part most people care about, so it goes first.

When you take the challenge, the app asks for microphone access and records your voice or singing. That recording is reversed and processed entirely on your device so you can play it back. It is saved only in the app's local storage on your phone. We do not upload it, we do not archive it on any server, we do not use it to train models, and no employee ever listens to it.

A recording you don't save is discarded when you leave the screen. A recording you do save stays on your device until you delete it.

What we don't do with the microphone

The app opens the microphone only while you are on the recording screen and only after you grant permission. It does not record in the background and does not listen when you are not actively recording. If you decline the microphone permission, the recording features will not work, but the rest of the app still does.

Because recordings never leave your device, we cannot recover one for you if you delete it or uninstall the app, and there is nothing on our side for us to hand over or erase. That is the intended trade-off.

Your personalized emoji

The app can turn you into a personalized emoji — a custom character built from the features, styles, and options you pick in the editor.

Your emoji and the choices behind it are generated and stored on your device. They are not tied to an account, not uploaded to us, and not synced anywhere. If the app offers on-device effects or filters, those run locally too. Sharing an emoji is always something you start yourself — when you tap share, your phone's own share sheet hands the image to whichever app you choose, and what happens next is governed by that app, not by us.

If a future version ever sends anything to a server to build an emoji, we will update this section first, describe exactly what is sent, and where the law requires it, ask for your consent.

Information we collect

The app has no accounts. You never give us a name, an email address, or a password, and we have no way to tie the data below to your real identity. What we do receive falls into a few buckets.

Everything the app collects, and where it goes.
Data Why Who receives it Kept for
Voice recordings To reverse and play back your challenge Nobody — processed and stored on your device Until you delete it
Personalized emoji To create and show your custom character Nobody — it stays on your device Until you delete it
Advertising ID To serve and measure ads Google AdMob Per Google's policy
Device & app info Crash diagnosis and compatibility Firebase Crashlytics, Google AdMob Up to 90 days
Usage events To see which features get used Firebase Analytics Up to 14 months
Subscription status To unlock paid features Google Play Billing While subscription is active

Your content stays on your phone

Recordings you save, emoji you create, and settings you change are stored in the app's local storage on your device. They are not uploaded, not backed up to us, and not synced anywhere. If you uninstall the app or clear its data, that content is gone permanently and we cannot restore it. Keep your own copy of anything that matters to you.

What we never collect

  • Your name, email address, or phone number
  • Your contacts, messages, or call history
  • Precise GPS location
  • Payment card numbers or bank details
  • Any file on your device other than content you create in the app

Advertising and your Advertising ID

The free version of Reverse Voice & Song Challenge is paid for by advertising. We use Google AdMob, which may work with mediation partners to fill ad space. Our full list of authorised sellers is published at app-ads.txt.

To show ads, AdMob and its partners receive your device's Advertising ID — a resettable identifier Google assigns to your phone — along with your IP address (which gives an approximate, city-level location), device model, operating system version, and whether you tapped or viewed an ad. This is standard for ad-supported apps, but you should know it happens.

Ads may be personalised, meaning AdMob uses that identifier to infer interests and pick ads accordingly. This is the closest thing to tracking that the app does, and you can turn it off — see below.

How to limit ad tracking

  • Reset or delete your Advertising ID: Android Settings → Privacy → Ads. Deleting it stops apps from receiving the identifier at all.
  • Opt out of personalised ads: the same settings screen. You will still see ads, but generic ones.
  • Remove ads entirely: subscribe. Paid subscribers see no ads and no ad SDK requests are made.
  • In the EEA, UK, or Switzerland: a consent prompt appears on first launch. Your answer is respected and you can change it later in the app's settings.
Google's own handling of this data is governed by the Google Privacy & Terms, which we do not control.

Subscriptions and payments

The app offers optional subscriptions that unlock premium features and remove ads. All purchases go through Google Play Billing.

We never see your payment details. Your card number, billing address, and everything else stay between you and Google. What reaches us is a purchase token and an order identifier, which tell us only whether a subscription is currently valid. We use them for nothing else.

Manage, renew, or cancel a subscription in the Google Play Store → Subscriptions. Refunds are handled under Google Play's refund policy, not by us. Cancelling stops future billing; previously charged periods run to their end date.

Analytics and crash reporting

We use Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics, both from Google, to keep the app working.

Analytics

Records events like "a recording was started" or "the emoji editor was opened", together with a pseudonymous app instance ID, your device model, OS version, and country. It tells us which features earn their place. It is not linked to any identity because we hold no identities, and it never contains your recordings or your emoji.

Crash reporting

When the app crashes, Crashlytics sends us a stack trace, the device model, the OS version, and the app state at the moment of failure. Without this we would be fixing bugs blind. Crash reports do not contain your recordings or your emoji.

You can reset the analytics identifier by clearing the app's data in Android settings, which starts a fresh instance ID.

How we use information

We use what we collect for these purposes and no others:

  • To run the challenge — recording, reversing, and playing back your voice or song.
  • To create your emoji — building the personalized character you design.
  • To keep the app stable — finding and fixing crashes and errors.
  • To improve the app — understanding which features are used and which are ignored.
  • To show ads — funding the free version.
  • To deliver subscriptions — unlocking what you paid for.
  • To prevent abuse — detecting fraud and automated misuse.
  • To comply with the law — where we are legally required to.

Legal bases (EEA, UK, Switzerland)

Where the GDPR applies, we rely on: contract for running the challenge and delivering subscriptions; consent for personalised advertising and analytics, which you give or withhold on the first-launch prompt and can change at any time; and legitimate interests for crash reporting, security, and fraud prevention, where we have weighed our interest in a working app against your privacy and consider the impact minimal.

Who we share information with

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising beyond what AdMob does as described in section 05. We have never done so and have no plans to.

Information reaches only these parties:

  • Google AdMob — Advertising ID and device data, to serve ads.
  • Google Firebase (Analytics, Crashlytics) — usage and crash data.
  • Google Play — subscription and purchase validation.

Your recordings and your emoji are not on this list because they never leave your device. We may also disclose information if compelled by valid legal process, or where necessary to investigate fraud or protect someone's safety. If we are ever acquired, this policy travels with the data, and you will be told before anything about it changes.

How long we keep information

Recordings and emoji live on your device for exactly as long as you choose to keep them. Crash reports are kept up to 90 days. Analytics events are kept up to 14 months, then deleted automatically. Subscription records are kept while the subscription is active and afterwards only as long as tax and accounting rules require.

Your choices and rights

Because the app has no accounts, you already hold most of the controls directly.

  • Delete your content: remove individual recordings and emoji in the app, or clear the app's data in Android settings to wipe everything at once.
  • Delete everything: uninstall the app. Since your recordings and emoji never left your device, uninstalling genuinely ends it.
  • Revoke microphone access: Android Settings → Apps → Reverse Voice & Song Challenge → Permissions.
  • Stop ad personalisation: reset or delete your Advertising ID, as described in section 05.

There is no account to delete

Google Play requires apps with accounts to offer account deletion. This app has no accounts and no server-side profile tied to you, so there is nothing of that kind to delete. Uninstalling removes your data completely. If you would like written confirmation of this, ask us and we will send it.

If the GDPR applies to you

You have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection, plus the right to withdraw consent at any time. Write to nguyenvanchuug@gmail.com and we will respond within 30 days. In practice we hold no data that identifies you, so we may need you to help us locate anything relevant — and we may not be able to. You may also complain to your local data protection authority.

If you are in California

The CCPA and CPRA give you rights to know, delete, correct, and opt out of sale or sharing. We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined. To exercise a right, write to the address above. We will not discriminate against you for doing so.

Do Not Track

There is no accepted standard for honouring Do Not Track signals in mobile apps, so we do not respond to them. The Advertising ID controls above are the real mechanism.

Children's privacy

Reverse Voice & Song Challenge is not directed to children under 13 and is not listed in Google Play's Designed for Families programme. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13.

If you believe a child has used the app and something was collected, write to us. We will delete what we can find — though as explained throughout, we hold very little that could belong to anyone in particular.

Security

Because recordings and emoji are processed and kept on your device, the most sensitive content never travels over the network at all. The limited data that does — ads, analytics, and crash reports — travels over encrypted HTTPS connections. Access to our infrastructure is limited to those who need it.

We will not pretend any system is perfectly secure — nobody can honestly promise that. What we can say is that the safest data is the data that doesn't exist, and this app is built to keep almost none on our side.

International transfers

We operate from Vietnam, and our service providers — Google chief among them — run infrastructure worldwide, including in the United States. The limited data described above may therefore be processed in countries whose privacy laws differ from your own.

Where data leaves the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, Google's transfers rely on Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission, and the EU–US Data Privacy Framework where applicable.

Changes to this policy

When this policy changes, the effective date at the top of this page changes with it, and the previous version is superseded.

If a change materially affects your privacy — new data collected, a new category of recipient, a new purpose — we will tell you in the app before it takes effect, and where the law requires it, ask for your consent again. Continuing to use the app after a change means you accept the revised policy.
