Privacy Policy

This is the privacy policy for Woof Moo, an Android app for listening to the radio station WFMU.

This policy applies only to the app, not the WFMU website, radio station, or any other entity.

App Permissions

The app requires the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission (only on Android 5). This allows it to save downloaded episodes to either an SD Card (if available), or the device’s storage. No other file access is performed, or allowed.

No other permissions are required. The app is not allowed to access any personal information.

Data Collection

The app does not use an account or identity, and all interaction is anonymous. The app’s asset (images, help pages, etc) are hosted on various third-party independent web servers, that may store access logs, including the IP address of visitors.

Interaction with an official WFMU account is unrelated to the app, and only happens via your web browser. Neither the browser nor the app have the ability to communicate or exchange any information.

External Services

• Crash Reporting: The app uses Firebase Crashlytics to provide information on the cause of crashes. No personal information is included with this data. Crash reporting is not required to use the app, but it is enabled by default. This can be changed in the Settings page.

• Analytics: The app uses Google Analytics for Firebase to allow the developer to understand how the app is used. No personally identifiable information (PII) is transmitted or collected. Google Analytics for Firebase collects certain information in its default implementation. See this support page for more information. Analytics are not required to use the app, but they are enabled by default. This can be changed in the Settings page.

• Purchase Management: The app uses RevenueCat to manage in-app purchases. The service assigns users an anonymous ID for identifying in-app purchases and restoring previous purchases. It is not associated with any personal information. It is required for the app to function, and can’t be disabled.

• Web services: Web traffic to the app, such as this document, is managed by Cloudflare, for performance and scalability reasons. The Cloudflare privacy policy therefore also applies and should be read in addition to this document. No personal information is included with any requests.
