Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 31, 2026
This policy explains what information the Earworm app ("the app"), published by Azzo Software Inc. ("we", "us"), collects, how it is used, and your choices.
The short version: we collect as little as possible. We don't run servers that store your data, we don't track you across other apps, and we don't show ads.
Information stored on your device
- Game scores, stats and achievements
- Daily Challenge progress
- Your purchases, cached so the app doesn't have to look them up each time
- App preferences and settings
- Cached artist artwork, to speed up loading
This information stays on your device and is never sent to us.
Apple Music
Earworm asks for access to Apple Music to play song previews, show artwork, play songs from your own library in My Library mode, and add a song to your library if you choose to. Access is read-only unless you take that action yourself. Your library is never uploaded to any server. You can play Earworm without connecting Apple Music.
Game Center
Leaderboards, achievements and real-time Versus matches use Apple Game Center. If you are signed in, your Game Center nickname and scores are shared with Apple and shown to other players. During a Versus match, your answers and score are sent to your opponent through Game Center. Game Center data is handled under Apple's privacy policy.
Purchases
Packs are processed entirely by Apple through the App Store. We never receive or store your payment information. Purchases are verified with Apple and remembered on your device.
Notifications
If you turn on daily reminders, they are scheduled on your device. No data leaves your phone to deliver them. You can turn them off at any time in Settings → Notifications → Earworm.
Challenge and Versus links
A challenge link contains the Apple Music song IDs, your score, the game mode and the name you play under. A Versus link contains only a room code. These links are shared through the messaging app you choose. We do not collect or store them.
Analytics and advertising
The app contains no analytics, tracking or advertising SDKs. We may review aggregated, anonymous statistics that Apple provides through App Store Connect, such as download numbers and crash reports, to improve the app.
Children
The app is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with a new date.
