Privacy policy

This policy covers Tilephony and this website, provided by Software by Smith. Privacy enquiries: contact@softwarebysmith.uk.

The game and your device

Tilephony has no app accounts, advertising or analytics. Settings, favourite song IDs, gameplay records and imported music stay on your device. Practice does not save competitive records. Bundled and previously downloaded songs play offline. Device-level backups may include app data according to your Apple settings; Tilephony does not operate a separate cloud service.

The app does not request microphone, camera, location, contacts or tracking permissions. Manual Files import reads the file you select and does not upload it. Remove saved songs through the song picker, or remove the app and its local data through device settings.

Purchases through Apple

Apple processes Full Game Unlock payments and Apple Account authentication. Tilephony uses StoreKit product details and verified transaction/entitlement information on your device to grant or restore access and respond to refunds. We do not receive your card details or Apple Account password, and do not operate a transaction-upload server or purchase analytics service. Purchase and restore requests contact Apple. See Apple’s privacy policy.

Finding songs online

Find songs online contacts Hinai at mirror.hinamizawa.ai to search, check availability, display artwork, play requested previews and download selected mapsets. Requests disclose your IP address, Tilephony client identifier, search text and requested song/media IDs to that service. Hinai may obtain media from osu! or other mirrors; redirects may contact those providers. Those services control their own privacy and logging practices.

Tilephony does not send settings, favourites, scores, gameplay or imported files. Artwork and preview responses may be cached on your device; downloaded artwork is saved with its song. Source links open third-party websites. Avoid entering personal information in searches. Community music and artwork are not guaranteed suitable for children by the mirror’s explicit-content filter.

This website

This site uses no advertising, analytics, tracking pixels, cookies, browser storage or third-party fonts. Images and styles are served from this site. Your browser necessarily sends connection details, including your IP address and requested URL, to the hosting infrastructure to deliver pages.

Routine website access logs are disabled. Hosting providers, reverse proxies and error logging may still process connection information for operation and security. External links take you to other services whose privacy policies apply.

Questions and requests

Contact contact@softwarebysmith.uk to ask about personal information you have sent us or request access, correction or deletion. We will respond as applicable to your request and local law.
