Privacy Statement
This Privacy Statement was last updated on September 24, 2026 and applies to visitors of https://audiomaze.com and its related subdomains (including listen.audiomaze.com, bio.audiomaze.com, and radio.audiomaze.com).

2. What this statement covers
This Privacy Statement explains how we collect, use, store, and protect the personal data of visitors, fans, and newsletter subscribers across our websites. It is separate from our Cookie Policy, which explains the specific cookies and tracking technologies we use — this statement explains why we process the data those and other tools collect.
This statement covers our fan-facing activity only. It does not cover our handling of artist or business-partner data, which is governed separately.
3. What personal data we collect
Depending on how you interact with our sites, we may collect:
- Browsing data — IP address, browser type, pages visited, and general usage statistics, collected automatically via Google Analytics.
- Advertising data — interactions with our Meta (Facebook/Instagram) ads and pages, collected via the Meta Pixel, used to measure ad performance and build audiences for future campaigns.
- Newsletter data — your email address, if you subscribe to our mailing list via Acumbamail. Subscriptions use double opt-in, meaning you must confirm your subscription by email before you’re added.
- Streaming platform data — if you use a “Pre-Save” or “Follow” action on one of our release pages, Spotify or Apple Music may collect data in accordance with their own privacy policies in order to carry out that action on your behalf. We do not receive your personal account details from these interactions.
- Contact data — your name and email address, if you contact us directly.
We do not knowingly collect financial or payment information through these sites.
4. Why we process your data, and our legal basis
| Purpose | Legal basis |
|---|---|
| Understanding how our sites are used, to improve them | Consent (via our cookie banner) |
| Measuring and improving our advertising | Consent (via our cookie banner) |
| Sending you our newsletter | Consent (double opt-in) |
| Responding to your enquiries | Legitimate interest / performance of a request you made |

5. Who we share data with
We use the following third-party services, which may process your data on our behalf:
- Google (Google Analytics) — website statistics
- Meta Platforms, Inc. — advertising measurement via Meta Pixel
- Acumbamail — newsletter delivery and subscriber management
- Spotify and Apple — only when you actively use a pre-save or follow action on a release page
- Our hosting provider — to operate the websites themselves
Some of these providers may process data outside the European Economic Area (notably Google and Meta, both based in the United States). Where this happens, these providers are expected to rely on appropriate safeguards, such as the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework or Standard Contractual Clauses, as required under GDPR.
We do not sell your personal data to third parties.
6. How long we keep your data
- Newsletter subscribers: for as long as you remain subscribed, plus a reasonable period afterward for unsubscribe-request records. You may unsubscribe at any time via the link in any newsletter email.
- Analytics and advertising data: retained according to the default periods set by Google Analytics and Meta Pixel, as described in our Cookie Policy.
- Direct enquiries: retained only as long as needed to handle and resolve your request.
7. Your rights
Under the GDPR, you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Rectify inaccurate data
- Erase your data (“right to be forgotten”)
- Restrict or object to our processing of your data
- Data portability — receive your data in a portable format
- Withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent (this won’t affect processing that already took place)
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@audiomaze.com. We will respond within the timeframes required by law.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens) at autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl, or with the supervisory authority in your own EU member state.
8. Children’s privacy
Our websites are not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it.
9. Changes to this statement
We may update this Privacy Statement from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. The “last updated” date at the top of this page will always reflect the most recent version.
