Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 29, 2026

Waveward ("Waveward", "we", "us") operates the email-project tools at pst.aivismonitor.com. This policy explains what information we do and do not collect when you use the site. By using Waveward you agree to this policy.

Your Audacity projects never leave your device

Waveward is built to be local-first. When you open, play, convert, recover or downgrade an .aup4 or .aup3 project, the file is read and processed entirely inside your browser using the File API and a Web Worker. The contents of your project — files, attachments, addresses, and folder structure — are never uploaded to, transmitted to, or stored on our servers. You can disconnect from the network after the page loads and the tools keep working.

Information we do collect

  • Usage analytics. We use Google Analytics to understand aggregate, anonymised usage (for example which pages are visited, approximate region, browser, and device type). This never includes the contents of your Audacity project.
  • License activation. If you activate a Waveward Pro license, only the license key you paste is sent to our server to be verified with our payment provider. No part of your project is sent.
  • Payment & identity data. Purchases are handled by our payment provider, Creem, acting as the merchant of record, together with its identity-verification provider, Sumsub. Your payment card details and identity documents are provided directly to those providers — Waveward never sees or stores them.
  • Checkout reminders. If you begin a Waveward Pro checkout, enter your email address on Creem's payment page, and leave without completing the purchase, Creem may send a small number of reminder emails about that checkout. This uses only the email you entered on Creem's own page — Waveward never sees it — and every reminder includes an unsubscribe link.
  • Approximate region for pricing. To decide whether to show a regional purchasing-power discount, the page reads the country our hosting provider infers from your IP address. Only the two-letter country code is used, in your browser, and it is not stored.
  • Support correspondence. If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you choose to include in your file, and keep it only to answer you.

Cookies

We use cookies only for the analytics described above. If you visit from the EEA, the UK or Switzerland, we ask before loading Google Analytics and load nothing if you decline; elsewhere it loads on your first visit. You can change that choice here at any time, and you can block or delete these cookies in your browser without affecting the core tools, which run locally.

How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We share the limited data above only with the service providers that make the site work — Google (analytics) and Creem/Sumsub (payments and verification) — and only as needed to provide those functions, or where required by law.

Data retention

Because your projects are never uploaded, we have nothing to retain about their contents. Analytics data is retained according to Google Analytics' standard retention settings. Support emails are kept only as long as needed to resolve your request.

Your rights

You may contact us to ask what information we hold about you, to request correction or deletion, or to raise a privacy concern. For payment or identity data held by Creem or Sumsub, please also refer to their respective privacy policies.

Children

Waveward is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their data.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the date at the top of this page.
