FBMB Music — Privacy Policy

Last updated: 18 October 2026

This Privacy Policy applies to the FBMB Music mobile application for Android devices, developed and maintained by Fabio Bartucci (“the Service Provider”). The application streams FBMB Originals and music from open catalogues. Downloads and offline playback are not available.

Overview

No account creation is required, and we do not collect your name, email address, physical address, or payment details.
Favorite tracks and playlists are stored locally on your device.
The application is free to use and supported by advertising (Google AdMob), adhering to privacy standards and GDPR consent requirements.
FBMB Originals are streamed from the Service Provider’s music server. External music and metadata may come from open catalogues.

Information Collection and Use

When you use the application, certain information may be collected automatically by integrated third-party SDKs:

Device Identifiers: Android Advertising ID (AAID) and anonymous installation identifiers.
Usage Data: Pages visited within the app, track interactions, session duration, and feature usage.
Diagnostic and Performance Data: Crash reports and performance metrics (such as network response times and app start duration).
IP Address & Coarse Location: Used for network delivery, security and service diagnostics, approximate traffic statistics, and non-precise geographic ads.

Favorites and playlists are kept on your device. The Service Provider’s music server receives the network information needed to serve and protect FBMB Originals streams.

Third-Party Services

The application utilizes external third-party services that handle data in accordance with their respective privacy policies:

Google AdMob & Google User Messaging Platform (UMP): For ad serving and GDPR consent management. Users in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland are presented with a consent form upon first launch to choose between personalized and non-personalized ads. policies.google.com/privacy
Google Firebase (Analytics, Crashlytics, Performance Monitoring): For anonymized usage telemetry, stability monitoring, and crash diagnosis. firebase.google.com/support/privacy
Google Play Services and Firebase App Check: For core Android features and verification of requests to the FBMB Music service. policies.google.com/privacy
Open Music APIs & Catalogs: When you search for or stream an external track, your device may connect to its source using standard HTTP requests, which include network information such as your IP address and User-Agent.

Data Retention

The FBMB Music server removes request logs, including IP addresses, after 30 days. Firebase and AdMob process analytics and diagnostic information according to their own settings and policies. Data stored locally on your device (playlists, favorites, and temporary playback cache) can be removed by clearing application data in Android Settings or uninstalling the app.

If you reside in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you are entitled to rights granted under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including access, correction, deletion, and consent withdrawal. California residents have rights under CCPA/CPRA. To exercise any of these rights, contact the developer at app.fbmb@gmail.com.

You may also reset or delete your Android Advertising ID at any time via: Android Settings › Google › Ads.

Children’s Privacy

The application is not directed at children under the age of 13, and the developer does not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you become aware that a child has provided personal information, please reach out so that it can be promptly deleted.

Changes to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically. Any material changes will be reflected with an updated effective date at the top of this page.
