VA-1 — Privacy Policy.
Last updated: April 23, 2026
VA-1 is a virtual-analog synthesizer published by Gillespie Audio. We respect your privacy and your device.
Data we collect
None. VA-1 makes no network requests. It runs no analytics. It contains no advertising SDK, no tracking framework, and no third-party telemetry. The app never sends data off your device.
Data stored on your device
VA-1 uses Apple's standard UserDefaults store on your device to remember:
- The list of presets you have marked as favorites.
- MIDI Learn bindings you create on the macOS version (which hardware CC maps to which on-screen knob).
- Your last selected preset, so the app reopens where you left off.
This data never leaves your device. Deleting the app removes it.
User-saved presets are written to your device's Documents folder and are subject to the same iCloud / local-backup rules as any other document.
Children
VA-1 does not collect any data, so it collects no data from children either. The app is suitable for all ages (rated 4+).
