Welcome to TransposeChord ("we," "our," or "the App"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how we handle your information. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your information.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information You Provide

  • Never leaves your device
  • Is not transmitted to our servers
  • Is not stored in any database
  • Disappears when you close your browser or clear the input field
