Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how MidiPro.org ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit midipro.org and use the Online MIDI Editor & Player.

1. Data Controller

The data controller responsible for this website is the operator of MidiPro.org. For contact details, please refer to our Imprint.

2. What Data We Collect

We collect only the minimum data necessary to operate this service:

Server log files: Your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URL, date and time of access. These are automatically transmitted by your browser and are stored temporarily for security and diagnostic purposes.
MIDI and audio data: Any MIDI files or audio you create or upload in the Editor are processed entirely in your browser and are not transmitted to or stored on our servers.

The MIDI Editor runs entirely client-side. Your compositions, uploaded files, and audio recordings never leave your device unless you explicitly choose to download or share them.

3. Cookies & Local Storage

MidiPro.org does not use tracking cookies or advertising cookies. We may use browser local storage to save your editor preferences (e.g. last instrument selection, tempo settings) between sessions. This data stays on your device and is never transmitted to us.

4. Third-Party Services

We use the following external services that may process your data:

Google Fonts: Fonts are loaded from Google's servers. Google may collect your IP address as part of this request. See Google's Privacy Policy.

We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any other behavioural tracking or advertising platform.

5. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)

If you are located in the European Union, our legal basis for processing server log data is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interests) — specifically, ensuring the security and proper functioning of the website. Log files are deleted after 7 days.

6. Data Retention

Server log files are retained for a maximum of 7 days and then automatically deleted, unless a longer retention period is required by law (e.g. in the event of a security incident).

7. Your Rights

Under applicable data protection law (including GDPR), you have the right to:

Access the personal data we hold about you
Request correction of inaccurate data
Request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten")
Object to processing based on legitimate interests
Lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority

To exercise these rights, please contact us via the address listed in our Imprint.

8. Children's Privacy

MidiPro.org is a general-purpose music tool and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
