We may collect certain non-directly identifying technical information, such as:

• Access time and session duration.

To show what your friends are listening to in real time, the site can save to a database:

• Your Spotify ID.
• Your Spotify profile name and avatar.
• The track you are listening to or have recently listened to.
• Information about whether or not you have chosen to share global activity.

This information is used only to show your presence on the site to other users who have connected their account.

• Display the synchronized lyrics of the song you are listening to.
• Display the album preview and track information.
• Show other users of the site what you are listening to (if the social functionality is enabled).
• Ensure the correct functioning of the site (error monitoring, security, debugging).

4. Legal basis

The processing of your personal data is primarily based on your consent, expressed when you voluntarily connect your Spotify account to the site. It may also be based on the data controller's legitimate interest in keeping the service secure and functioning.

5. Methods and duration of storage

The data is processed using electronic and telematic tools. Real-time attendance data is retained only for the time strictly necessary to show the status of connected users.

You can disconnect your Spotify account and stop using the site at any time; in this case, the attendance information will be removed or rendered unusable as quickly as possible.

• Spotify, which provides access to your account data via its APIs (subject to Spotify's terms and privacy policy).
• Hosting and database services (e.g., Firebase/Google) used to run the site

The data is not sold to third parties. Display to your friends or other users only occurs within the site, in the context of social features.

• Access your personal data processed by the service
• Request the rectification or updating of your data.
• Request the deletion of your data within the limits established by law.
