Introduction

This Privacy Policy outlines how Mergify ("the App") collects, uses, and protects user data when interacting with the Spotify API. By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the App.

Information We Collect

When you connect your Spotify account to the App, we request access to certain data through the following Spotify API scopes:

1. playlist-read-private: Access to your private playlists to enable playlist merging or management.
2. playlist-read-collaborative: Access to collaborative playlists for reading and merging purposes.
3. playlist-modify-private: Permission to create or modify private playlists during the merge process.
4. playlist-modify-public: Permission to create or modify public playlists if selected by the user.
5. user-read-private: Access to basic user information, such as your Spotify user ID.

How We Use Your Information

The data collected is used exclusively for the functionality of the App and includes:

• Reading private and collaborative playlists to display and merge them.
• Creating new playlists or modifying existing ones based on user input.
• Fetching basic user information (e.g., user ID) required for playlist creation.

We do not collect, store, or share sensitive information such as your email address, listening history, or personal preferences outside of what is necessary for playlist merging.

Data Retention

We only process your data while you are actively using the App. Once you disconnect your Spotify account from the App, we cease all access and delete any cached data related to your account.

1. Access: You can view what permissions have been granted by checking your Spotify account settings.
2. Revocation: You can revoke access at any time by disconnecting your Spotify account from the App.
3. Deletion: Upon disconnection, all cached data related to your account will be deleted immediately.

Cookies

The App does not use cookies or track browsing activities outside of its core functionality.

Third-Party Services

The App relies on Spotify's API for data access and processing. Please refer to Spotify's Privacy Policy for details on how Spotify handles user data.

Security Measures

We implement industry-standard security practices to protect your data during transmission and processing. However, no system can guarantee absolute security.
