What we collect

Your email address, used to deliver the processed file, and the audio file you upload.

Free tier

You can upload without creating an account. Your email address and job details are stored temporarily in our Supabase job queue to process and deliver your file. Free audio uploads go directly to our own hardware.

Retention

Uploaded files are deleted after processing. Delivered files are deleted within 48 hours. This applies to all tiers.

Where processing happens

Audio processing runs on our own hardware within the EU. Creator, Studio and Founding uploads use private Supabase Storage in Frankfurt as temporary input storage before our hardware retrieves the file for processing. Completed, cancelled and expired cloud inputs are removed by automatic cleanup. Mastered files are served from our own hardware.

Paid accounts

Account details are stored to provide the service. Payments are handled by Stripe, acting as a data processor. Stripe may process data outside the EU under Standard Contractual Clauses.

Your rights under GDPR

Access, rectification, erasure, data portability, restriction and objection. Send requests to hello@saltwaves.studio. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (IMY).

Cookies

We use only what is required to operate the service. No advertising or cross-site tracking.

Data Processing Agreement

A Data Processing Agreement under GDPR Article 28 is available to business customers on request.
