This policy describes what VIBESXS actually collects, why, and for how long — not a generic template. If anything here seems unclear, contact us using the details at the bottom of this page.
1. Who we are
VIBESXS (vibesxs.com) is a mood-driven music platform. This policy covers the main site, the Autonomous DJ (A-DJ) mixer, ISO Journey, the Immersive Player, and the contributor/upload tools. It does not cover third-party sites we link to.
2. What we collect
Account data
Creating an account only requires an email address — VIBESXS uses passwordless sign-in (a one-time code emailed to you), not a stored password, for regular listener accounts. We store your email address, an internal account ID, your listening tier, and account status (active or suspended). If you follow a contributor’s referral link to sign up, we record which contributor referred you.
Listening activity
To power features like Recently Played, your Sound Profile, and Mood Forecast, we record each track you play: which track, which mood context, how long you listened, and whether you finished it. We also record your favorited tracks, followed artists, and daily token/play allowance usage (an internal ledger of plays, not a payment record). If you set a mood target, we store that target and, if you choose to share it, a share link others can claim.
Guest (not-signed-in) activity
If you use VIBESXS without an account, your browser generates a random session ID stored in your browser’s local storage (not a cookie). We use it to track your favorites, listening activity, and daily play allowance the same way as above, but without any personal information attached. If you later create an account, this history is transferred into your new account so you don’t lose it — after that point, it’s no longer separately tied to the anonymous session ID.
Lighting integration
If you connect a smart-lighting device through My Lighting, we store an internal device identifier tied to your account so the platform can send it real-time mood/energy data during playback. We don’t collect any data from the device itself beyond what’s needed to address it.
Contributor and label data
If you upload music or manage a label on VIBESXS, we additionally store upload records, artist/track credit assignments, and — for the Contributor Rewards program — referral attribution and reward/gift-token history. Suspicious referral or reward activity may be flagged internally for manual review; a flag doesn’t affect your account unless and until an admin acts on it.
Support tickets
If you contact support, your ticket (including your email and message content) is handled through our support-ticketing plugin, stored in this site’s own database — not sent to a separate third-party support company.
Technical data
Your IP address is used briefly and automatically to prevent abuse — for example, limiting how many sign-in codes or support requests can be requested in a short window. It is not stored permanently in plain form. A one-way, non-reversible hash of your IP address (not the address itself) is retained in a small number of internal security/audit logs used to investigate abuse, such as fake plays or ban evasion.
What we don’t do
VIBESXS does not run third-party advertising or analytics trackers (no Google Analytics, no ad pixels) anywhere on the site. We don’t sell your data to anyone.
3. Cookies and local storage
We use standard WordPress login-session cookies to keep you signed in. We use your browser’s local storage (not cookies) to remember your guest session ID, your favorites (as a fallback), and basic player state like volume. If we ever add a bot-verification step (Cloudflare Turnstile) to the sign-up form, Cloudflare may set its own cookie/local-storage entries for that specific purpose only, on that page only.
4. Who we share data with
We use a small number of service providers to run VIBESXS, each only for the specific job listed:
- Hostinger
- Cloudflare
- Railway
We do not currently process payments or store payment information. If VIBESXS introduces paid subscriptions in the future, this policy will be updated before that happens to describe the data and what rights apply to it.
We don’t share your data with anyone else, except where required by law.
5. How long we keep data
We keep account and listening data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account (available any time from Your Vibe → Account Settings), your favorites, play history, and token/play ledger entries tied to your account are deleted immediately. Anonymized security/audit-log entries (the one-way hashes described in Section 2) may be retained longer for abuse-investigation purposes, since they can’t be traced back to you once anonymized.
6. Your rights
You can, at any time and without contacting us:
- Change the email address on your account (Your Vibe → Account Settings).
- Delete your account and its associated data (Your Vibe → Account Settings).
If you’d like a copy of your data, or want to make a formal data-access or deletion request under GDPR, CCPA, or a similar law, contact us using the details below and we’ll handle it directly.
7. Children’s privacy
VIBESXS is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from anyone under that age.
8. Changes to this policy
If we materially change what we collect or how we use it, we’ll update the date at the top of this page and, for significant changes, note it on the site.
9. Contact
Questions about this policy or your data can be sent to our support team through the Help/Support link on the site, or by emailing us directly.
