Privacy
policy.

What data loudroom collects, why, who else sees it, and how to access or delete it. Plain language, no hidden tracking.

1. Who's responsible

loudroom is run by me, Andri Weder — self-employed audio mastering engineer.

Schwerzistrasse 4, 8606 Nänikon, Switzerland
andri@loudroom.ch

For any privacy question, data-access request, or deletion request, email me. Full operator details on the Impressum.

2. What data I collect

Three moments, three different reasons:

When you subscribe

  • Your name and email (typed into Stripe Checkout)
  • Your artist or project name (a custom field on Stripe Checkout — I use this to label your upload folder)
  • Payment details — these stay entirely with Stripe. I never see or store your card number.
  • Country and (for some payment methods) postal code, which Stripe needs for fraud prevention and tax handling

When you send tracks

  • The audio files you upload (WAV, AIFF, etc.) via the kDrive upload link in your welcome email
  • The filenames you give them

When you use the contact form

  • Your name, email, and message text

When you visit loudroom.ch

  • Anonymous page-view counts and performance metrics, via Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights
  • No cookies are set. No advertising profile is built about you.

3. Why I collect it

  • To run your subscription — name, email, payment, artist name. Standard contract stuff: I can't bill you or send your masters back without it.
  • To master your tracks — the audio files you upload. That's the job.
  • To answer your questions — contact form submissions go to my inbox so I can reply.
  • To keep the website running — anonymous analytics tell me whether the site is fast and which pages people use. No cookies, so no consent banner.
  • To meet legal obligations — Swiss tax law requires me to keep invoices and payment records for 10 years.

4. Third-party services

Running a small online service needs a few external providers. Each one only sees the data needed for its specific job:

  • Stripe Payments Europe Ltd. (Ireland) — payment processing, subscription billing, customer portal. Sees: name, email, payment details, artist name. policy
  • Resend, Inc. (USA, EU region) — sends your welcome email. Sees: email, name. policy
  • ImprovMX (France) — forwards andri@loudroom.ch into my regular inbox. Sees: email contents in transit. policy
  • Infomaniak SA (Switzerland) — kDrive cloud storage for your uploads. Sees: your audio files, filenames. Stored on Swiss data centres. policy
  • Samply.app (Germany) — hosts the listening links I send you with each finished master. Sees: email, mastered audio. policy
  • Web3Forms (Indo Innovations Pvt. Ltd., India) — relays contact-form submissions to my inbox. Sees: what you typed in the form. policy
  • Vercel Inc. (USA, edge-CDN worldwide) — hosts the website and the function that sends your welcome email. policy

I don't sell your data. I don't share it with anyone for advertising, profiling, or analytics beyond the providers above.

International transfers. Switzerland and EU providers sit under FADP/GDPR adequacy. USA (Resend, Vercel) — Standard Contractual Clauses. India (Web3Forms) — no adequacy decision; only what you type in the contact form goes there. Email andri@loudroom.ch for the relevant SCC excerpts.

5. How long I keep it

  • Subscription records (name, email, billing) — for the duration of your subscription, plus 10 years after cancellation as required by Swiss tax law.
  • Uploaded audio files — kept in your private kDrive folder while you're a subscriber. After cancellation, typically deleted within 30 days unless you ask me to keep them.
  • Mastered files I deliver to you — kept while your subscription is active, plus 12 months after cancellation, so you can request a re-download. You can request deletion any time, and I'll honour an extension request if you need them held longer.
  • Contact form submissions — kept in my inbox until you ask me to delete them.

6. Your rights

Under FADP (Switzerland) and GDPR (EU), you can:

  • Get a copy of the data I hold about you (access)
  • Correct inaccurate data (rectification)
  • Ask me to delete your data, subject to legal retention obligations (erasure)
  • Receive your data in a machine-readable format (portability)
  • Object to processing I do based on legitimate interest
  • Withdraw any consent you previously gave

To exercise any of these, email andri@loudroom.ch. I'll reply as soon as I can, and within one month at the latest.

You can also lodge a complaint with the regulator: Swiss residents with the FDPIC; EU residents with the data-protection authority of your country.

7. Changes to this policy

If I change this policy in a way that materially affects how I handle your data, I'll email active subscribers before the change takes effect.
