Privacy Policy

Introduction & Scope

In offering the My Music Bridge App, our website [https://musbridge.com/] and any corresponding services (collectively, the “App”) for use, Bridge Innovations, LLC (“We” or “Us”) are mindful of the privacy concerns of our users, particularly those under the age of 18 (“Children”) and their parents or guardians (“Parents”). As the App is intended for use by children, this Privacy Policy addresses our data collection, use and sharing with respect to Children and Parents (see “Children” and “General” sections) but also applies to other App users (see “General” section).

This Privacy Policy is in accordance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”). Although COPPA applies to the personal information of children under the age of 13, We apply the same practices to children between the ages of 13 through 17. With respect to Children and Parents, in the event of a conflict between the terms in the “Children” section and the terms in the “General” section, the terms in the “Children” section shall prevail.

Children

Personal Information We Collect from Children:   We may ask users to verify their date of birth before collecting any further information from or about them. Users who indicate they are under the age of 18 are blocked from further activity and taken through a parent consent process. If parental consent is not obtained within five (5) days, any data obtained from or about such user is permanently deleted. Once We obtain parental consent, We may collect and store the following types of personal information directly from an App user:

  • Child’s First Name
  • Email Address being used by Child
  • Age of Child
  • Musical Instrument(s) being played by Child
  • Recording of instrument played by Child
  • Recording of voice of Child (incidental or otherwise)
  • Child’s feedback while using the App

We also passively collect the following personal information through the App:

  • Persistent Identifiers for Child (IP addresses, browser type used, cookies, etc.): Note that We may collect this type of information without obtaining parental consent for purposes of supporting our internal operation of App or as otherwise permitted under COPPA

How We Use and Share Information Collected from Children:  We use the personal information:                

  • To provide the services and functions available on the App
  • For analytical purposes, in an aggregated, non-identifiable format

We may share the personal information:

  • With your consent, including without limitation, recordings made through the App
  • With trusted service providers as necessary for them to provide a service or perform a support function for the App
  • As required by law or order from a court or tribunal
  • To protect the security or integrity of the App or other App users
  • With educators or academic organizations in an aggregated, non-identifiable format
  • We reserve the right to sell the personal information along with other business assets in connection with the sale of the App or other similar transaction
                     

How and When We Communicate with Parents:  We won’t require Children to disclose more information than is reasonably necessary to use the functionality of the App. Parents have the right to:

  • Review the personal information that We have from their Child(ren);
  • Direct that We delete the personal information that We have from their Child(ren); and
  • Refuse to allow any further collection or use of personal information from their Child(ren).

To exercise any of these rights, Parents may email us at [mmbsupport@musbridge.com] or write to [1165 Miners Run, Rochester, MI 48306] and include Parent’s name and current email address (and the email address you used to register for the App, if different) as well as your Child(ren)’s name and email address.

General

Additional Data Collection and Use Regarding Adults: In addition to our data practices described above, when you register your Child or yourself for the App and use the services and functions available on the App, We may collect your:

  • First and last name
  • Email address
  • Mailing address
  • Telephone number (required in order to facilitate user name or password recovery)
  • Other information you provide as may be necessary or helpful for us to provide the Services or offer you assistance and support

Information you provide that can be used to identify you individually, such as your name and address, is considered “personal information.”

We do not collect or retain any financial information or other personal information you provide to pay for the App. Instead, all payment processing must take place through the App Store.

Security of Information: Although We take reasonable measures in order to provide for the security of the App, We cannot fully control and therefore cannot be liable for interruptions, intrusions, errors, loss of data or any other interferences with the use of the App.

Links to Third Party Resources: We provide links to third party websites and other resources as a convenience to users. Such linked sites are outside of our control and responsibility and are not covered by this Privacy Policy. If you use any such linked sites, please consult the privacy policies posted on those websites.

Text Messaging: In the event that you wish to recover your user name or password, We may send a text to the telephone number that you have provided in order for you to complete the recovery process. You hereby consent to receiving text messages from or on behalf of Us relating to the recovery of your user name or password.

Deletion of Data: We may delete your personal information in our discretion when you cease using the App or if We suspend or terminate your access to the App for any reason. We will also use commercially reasonable efforts to delete any of your personal information that you request we delete, although doing so may prevent us from providing you with the full functionality of the App. If you chose to delete your account, we will delete the personal information from our records, except as required by law or necessary for accounting purposes.

Location of App: We control and operate the App from within the United States of America. Our privacy practices are governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Michigan, which may differ from privacy laws in your state or home country. By submitting your personal information to us through the App, you consent to the transfer of your personal information to any country and its use and disclosure in accordance with applicable laws of the United States and the State of Michigan, and with this Privacy Policy.

Right to Update: We reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will provide notification of the change through the App. The Privacy Policy does not create any contractual or other legal right in or on behalf of any party.

Contact Us: For any question or to request modification or deletion of your personal information, please email us at [mmbsupport@musbridge.com] or write to [1165 Miners Run, Rochester, MI 48306 ].
