Privacy policy
Last updated: October 4, 2026
Trove is a local-first product, and this website follows the same principle: we collect as little as possible, and nothing without you actively giving it to us. This page describes what actually happens to your data — no legal boilerplate hiding the ball.
What this website collects
- Nothing automatic. This site runs no analytics scripts, no advertising pixels, and sets no tracking cookies. Our hosting provider (Cloudflare) processes standard server logs, such as IP addresses, to serve and secure the site. Download buttons are ordinary links to the App Store: tapping one sends you to Apple and records nothing here. (Between 4 and 7 September 2026 those buttons passed through a redirect that added 1 to a per-day total — no IP, no user agent, no identifier. That redirect and its counts are gone.)
- Email: if you write to [email protected] or [email protected], Cloudflare forwards the message to our inbox. We see your address and what you write, and use them only to reply and to fix what you report.
- No forms. Until 21 September 2026 this site had a feedback form and a product-news sign-up. Both are gone. Messages sent through the feedback form have been deleted. Addresses left on the sign-up list are kept for one purpose: telling those people about major releases, such as Trove arriving in a new region. No newsletters, no sharing, no selling.
The free tools run in your browser
The tools on this site (such as the LRC Maker and Album Art Finder) run entirely in your browser. Audio files and lyrics you load are processed locally on your device and are never uploaded to us. The Album Art Finder sends your search text directly from your browser to Apple's public iTunes Search API to find artwork; we never see or store those searches.
The Trove app
The app has its own, more detailed policy: Trove app privacy policy. The short version is that Trove is local-first — no account, no analytics, your library and passwords stay on your device, and your music files never pass through our servers. In Trove 1.5 and later, feedback you actively submit is sent over HTTPS through Cloudflare to our support inbox, with diagnostics only if you include them.
Your choices
You can request access to, or deletion of, anything you have sent us — a feedback report, an email, or your address on the old sign-up list — at any time by emailing [email protected]. One email, and it's gone.
Terms of use
- This website and its free tools are provided “as is”, without warranty of any kind. Use them at your own discretion.
- Album artwork and lyrics remain the property of their respective rights holders. The tools are intended for managing your own personal music library — you are responsible for how you use the output.
- Trove Player is an independent project, not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Apple Inc. Apple, Mac, iPhone, iTunes and Apple Music are trademarks of Apple Inc.
