HushRave Privacy Policy

Last updated: 28 July 2026

HushRave is a silent-disco listening service operated by Ambinost Labs Inc. ("we", "us"). This policy covers the listener apps — the HushRave iOS/iPadOS app, the Android app, and the web player at hushrave.com — which is what you use when you join a party.

It does not cover HushRave DJ, the separate macOS app a host installs to broadcast. That app does report anonymous diagnostics, and it is described in its own section below.

The short version

We do not collect personal information from listeners. HushRave has no accounts, no sign-up, and no advertising or tracking SDKs. You join a party by opening a link and tapping play.

What the app does

• To play a party, the app repeatedly requests a small “manifest” file and short audio segments from our servers over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection.
• Each listening session includes a random, anonymous session token generated on your device. It lets the server show a live listener count for a party. It is not linked to your identity and is discarded when the party ends.
• The app stores one setting locally on your device — your manual sync offset — using standard iOS storage. It never leaves your device.

Information we do not collect

In the listener apps:

• No names, emails, phone numbers, or accounts.
• No location, contacts, photos, or microphone access.
• No advertising identifiers and no cross-app or cross-site tracking.
• No analytics or third-party trackers in the listener apps.

HushRave DJ (macOS broadcaster app)

Hosts who broadcast a party install a separate macOS app, HushRave DJ. Unlike the listener apps, it sends us anonymous usage and crash reports so we can fix setup failures and crashes we would otherwise never hear about. This is processed on our behalf by PostHog.

What it sends:

• A random identifier generated on that Mac. It is not derived from your name, your hardware, or any account, and it exists only to tell one installation apart from another.
• App version, macOS version and processor architecture.
• Which actions occurred — app opened, audio driver installed or activated, broadcast started or stopped, how long a broadcast ran, and the anonymous listener count.
• Crash and error reports, including the technical error message and stack trace.

What it never sends:

• Your party path, party name, or guest link.
• Any audio. We never record, store, or transmit what you broadcast for analytics.
• Your microphone, speaker, or audio interface names.
• Your name, your Mac's name, or your home folder path — these are stripped from every report, including from inside crash stack traces, before it is sent.

You can turn it off. Open Settings in HushRave DJ and untick “Share anonymous usage & crash reports”. Nothing further is sent from that moment on. Broadcasting works exactly the same either way.

Server logs

Like virtually all websites, our content delivery network may record standard technical request data (such as an IP address and timestamp) transiently for security and reliability. We do not use this data to build profiles of individuals, and we do not sell or share it.

Children

HushRave is not directed at children under 13 and collects no personal information from anyone, including children.

Your choices

Because we don’t collect personal data from listeners, there’s nothing to access, correct, or delete on our side. Deleting the app removes the single local setting it stores.

If you host with HushRave DJ, you can switch its anonymous reporting off at any time in the app’s Settings, as described above.

Changes

If this policy changes, we’ll update the date above and post the revised version at this URL.
