Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026

Data We Collect

Timbrica is designed with privacy in mind. We collect minimal data necessary for the service to function. We do not require registration or personal information to use our tools.

Audio Files

When you upload audio files for processing:

  • Files are processed on our servers and immediately deleted after processing
  • We do not store, share, or analyze the content of your audio files
  • Processed files are available for download for a limited time (up to 1 hour) and then automatically deleted

Cookies

We use several types of cookies to ensure the best experience on our site. Essential cookies are required for session management and language preferences. Analytics cookies from Google Analytics and Yandex Metrica help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. Advertising cookies from Google AdSense are used to display relevant ads that help keep Timbrica free. You can manage or disable cookies at any time through your browser settings.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics and Yandex Metrica to collect anonymous usage statistics and understand how visitors interact with our site. This data helps us improve performance, fix issues, and develop new features. The information collected does not contain personally identifiable data and cannot be used to identify individual users.

Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services: Google Analytics and Yandex Metrica for anonymous usage analytics, and Google AdSense for displaying advertisements that help sustain the service. These services may set their own cookies and collect data in accordance with their respective privacy policies. All audio file processing is performed on our own infrastructure — your audio files are never shared with third parties.

Data Retention

We retain different types of data for different periods depending on their purpose:

  • Audio files: automatically deleted within 1 hour after processing is complete
  • Temporary files: cleaned hourly via an automated scheduled task
  • Ratings and comments: retained indefinitely as publicly submitted content
  • Analytics data: retained according to the default retention policies of Google Analytics and Yandex Metrica
  • Since Timbrica does not require user accounts, no personal data is stored on a long-term basis

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have specific rights regarding your personal data under applicable privacy laws:

  • GDPR (EU users): You have the right to access, rectify, erase, and port your data, as well as the right to restrict or object to its processing.
  • CCPA (California residents): You have the right to know what data we collect, request its deletion, and opt out of the sale of personal information. We do not sell your personal data.
  • To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at support@timbrica.com.
  • We will respond to all verified requests within 30 days.

International Data Transfers

Timbrica is hosted on servers that may process data in various locations worldwide. When you use our service, your data may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own. We take appropriate measures to ensure that any such transfers comply with applicable data protection laws and that your data remains protected. By using Timbrica, you consent to the transfer of your information as described in this policy.

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify users of any significant changes by updating the "Last updated" date.
