Data we collect

None. TEMPO-1 makes no network requests of its own. It has no accounts, no sign-in, no cloud service, no advertising SDK, no analytics SDK, no tracking framework, and no third-party telemetry. The app does not send personal data, usage data, audio, samples, presets, MIDI mappings, or project data to Gillespie Audio.

Data stored on your device

TEMPO-1 stores app data locally on your device so the workstation can reopen with your music-making state intact. This may include:

  • Factory and user preset selections, kits, patterns, and banks.
  • Imported user samples that you choose to load into the app.
  • MIDI Learn mappings you create for hardware controllers.
  • Playback, routing, mixer, FX, voice, tempo, swing, and workflow settings.
  • Exported WAV, MIDI, or bank files you choose to save or share.

This data stays on your device unless you choose to export, share, back up, or sync it using Apple or third-party tools outside TEMPO-1. Deleting the app removes app-local data, subject to normal iOS, iPadOS, macOS, iCloud, Files, backup, and host-app behavior.

Samples, exports, and AUv3 hosts

TEMPO-1 can import WAV samples you select, export WAV and MIDI files, import and export preset banks, and run as an AUv3 extension in supported host apps. Files you choose to import, export, save, share, or store in another app are controlled by you and by the Apple or host-app features you use.

When TEMPO-1 runs as an AUv3 extension, the host app may save plug-in state inside its own session or project files. That host app's privacy policy and storage behavior apply to the host project.

Purchases

App Store purchases are handled by Apple through the App Store and StoreKit. Gillespie Audio does not receive your payment details, Apple ID, or App Store account information from TEMPO-1. Apple's own privacy policy applies to App Store purchases and related account activity.

Device permissions

TEMPO-1 uses standard system audio, MIDI, document import, document export, and sharing features as needed for its music workflows. It does not request access to your location, contacts, calendar, reminders, health data, or advertising identifier.

Children

TEMPO-1 does not collect data from anyone, including children.
