GDPR and CCPA

This page documents your privacy rights under two major data protection frameworks: the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which applies to users in the European Economic Area and United Kingdom, and the California Consumer Privacy Act and California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA), which applies to California residents.

VocalRangeFinder.com is operated by Nance. This site does not sell personal data, does not operate advertising networks, and does not use behavioural tracking. The Vocal Range Finder processes microphone audio entirely within your browser — it is never transmitted to any server and does not constitute personal data held by this site.

If you wish to exercise any of the rights described on this page, contact Nance at contact@vocalrangefinder.com with the relevant subject line specified in each section below.


Part 1 — GDPR: European Economic Area and United Kingdom Users

Legal Basis for Processing

Where VocalRangeFinder.com processes personal data, it does so on the following legal bases under GDPR Article 6:

  • Legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)) — server log data (IP address, browser type, page requested) is processed for security monitoring, abuse prevention, and site diagnostics. This processing is proportionate and does not override your fundamental rights.
  • Contractual necessity (Article 6(1)(b)) — contact form data (name, email, message) is processed to respond to your enquiry. Without this data, it is not possible to reply to you.
  • Consent (Article 6(1)(a)) — microphone access is granted by you explicitly via the browser permission prompt. Because voice audio is processed entirely locally and never transmitted to this site’s server, it does not constitute personal data held by this site for GDPR purposes.

Your Seven GDPR Rights

Right of Access (Article 15) You have the right to request confirmation of whether this site holds personal data about you and, if so, to receive a copy of that data along with information about how it is processed.

Right to Rectification (Article 16) You have the right to request correction of any inaccurate personal data this site holds about you, and to have incomplete data completed.

Right to Erasure (Article 17) You have the right to request deletion of personal data this site holds about you — commonly referred to as the “right to be forgotten” — where the data is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or where you withdraw consent and no other legal basis applies.

Right to Restriction of Processing (Article 18) You have the right to request that processing of your personal data be restricted — for example, while the accuracy of data is being verified or while an objection is being assessed.

Right to Data Portability (Article 20) You have the right to receive personal data you have provided to this site in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format, and to transmit that data to another controller where technically feasible.

Right to Object (Article 21) You have the right to object to processing of your personal data where that processing is based on legitimate interests. Nance will cease processing unless compelling legitimate grounds that override your rights can be demonstrated.

Rights Related to Automated Decision-Making (Article 22) VocalRangeFinder.com does not use automated decision-making or profiling. No decisions with legal or similarly significant effects are made about you based on automated processing of your data.

International Data Transfers

VocalRangeFinder.com is operated within the territory covered by this policy. Where third-party services used by this site — such as hosting infrastructure — process data in countries outside the EEA, those transfers are made under appropriate safeguards in accordance with GDPR Chapter V. When advertising or analytics services are added in future, this section will be updated to document any Standard Contractual Clauses or adequacy decisions that apply.

Part 2 — CCPA/CPRA: California Residents

Your Six CCPA/CPRA Rights

Right to Know (Section 1798.100) You have the right to request disclosure of the categories of personal information VocalRangeFinder.com has collected about you, the specific pieces of personal information collected, the purposes for which it is used, and whether it has been disclosed to third parties.

Right to Correct (Section 1798.106) You have the right to request correction of inaccurate personal information this site holds about you.

Right to Opt Out of Sale or Sharing (Section 1798.120) VocalRangeFinder.com does not sell personal information. This site does not share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising purposes. There is no advertising-related data sharing to opt out of at this time.

If advertising services are added in future, this section will be updated before those services go live to include any opt-out mechanisms required under CCPA/CPRA.

Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information (Section 1798.121) VocalRangeFinder.com does not collect or retain sensitive personal information as defined under CCPA/CPRA. Voice audio is processed locally in your browser and never transmitted to this site.

Tool Data — Not Personal Data Held by This Site

For absolute clarity: voice audio, confirmed note measurements, session range data, and voice type classification results are all processed locally within your browser. None of this data is transmitted to VocalRangeFinder.com’s server. None of it is stored in any database. None of it is associated with your identity. None of it constitutes personal data held by VocalRangeFinder.com for the purposes of either GDPR or CCPA.

Nance has no access to your voice audio, your range measurements, or your classification results. They cannot be retrieved, reviewed, or deleted on your behalf — because they were never collected by this site.
