Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 19, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how VocalRangeTester.com collects, uses, and handles information when you visit the website, use its tools, or contact us.

VocalRangeTester.com is operated by John Mayer. We aim to collect only the information reasonably necessary to operate, improve, secure, and understand the website.

You do not need to create an account to use the site’s core tools.

Privacy at a Glance

In general:

  • no user account is required;
  • some voice tools request microphone permission only when live audio input is needed;
  • supported microphone tools are designed to analyze audio in the browser rather than require an uploaded voice recording;
  • contact forms collect information you choose to submit;
  • Google Analytics is used to understand website usage;
  • our hosting and website infrastructure may process standard technical and security logs;
  • cookies or similar technologies may be used for analytics and other website functions;
  • we do not sell personal information.

The sections below explain these practices in more detail.

Microphone and Audio Processing

Some VocalRangeTester.com tools need microphone access to analyze pitch, frequency, or other voice-related information.

Your browser or device controls microphone permission. A microphone-dependent tool cannot receive live microphone input through the normal browser permission process unless access has been granted.

Supported microphone tools are designed to process the relevant live audio signal within the browser for the purpose of generating the tool result. VocalRangeTester.com does not intentionally require you to upload or save a voice recording as part of this normal pitch-analysis workflow.

Tool results may include information such as detected notes, frequencies, range measurements, or other calculated values.

Microphone processing should be distinguished from other website technologies such as analytics, cookies, hosting logs, advertising, and contact forms, which may process different types of information.

For more information about how the voice tools work, see How It Works.

Information You Submit to Us

You may voluntarily provide information when you contact VocalRangeTester.com.

Depending on the form and the information you choose to provide, this may include:

  • your name;
  • email address;
  • message;
  • page or tool URL;
  • technical details about a problem;
  • supporting information submitted with a correction or inquiry.

We use this information to review and respond to your message, investigate technical problems, consider corrections, and manage legitimate site communications.

Contact submissions may be processed through WordPress, the site’s contact-form infrastructure, hosting systems, and email-delivery services where necessary to receive or manage the message.

We do not sell contact submissions or use them for unrelated email marketing.

Please avoid submitting passwords, payment details, medical records, or other unnecessary sensitive information through the contact form.

See the Contact page for more information about submitting questions or corrections.

Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, VocalRangeTester.com and its service providers may automatically process limited technical information when a page is requested.

Depending on the service and configuration, this may include:

  • IP address;
  • browser or user-agent information;
  • device or operating-system information;
  • requested pages or URLs;
  • date and time of requests;
  • referring pages;
  • error or security information;
  • approximate geographic information derived from technical data;
  • interactions with pages or site features.

This information may come from website hosting/server logs, security systems, analytics technologies, or similar infrastructure.

Hosting and Server Logs

VocalRangeTester.com uses Hostinger for website hosting and related infrastructure.

Hosting systems may process standard access, error, performance, and security information as necessary to deliver website pages, maintain reliability, investigate technical problems, and protect the website from misuse.

This can include information such as IP addresses, request times, requested URLs, browser or device information, and server-error information.

Hostinger handles information according to its own privacy practices. You can review the official Hostinger Privacy Policy.

Google Analytics

VocalRangeTester.com uses Google Analytics to better understand how visitors use the website.

Depending on the site’s Analytics configuration and your privacy/consent settings, Google Analytics may process information such as:

  • pages viewed;
  • site interactions;
  • browser and device information;
  • approximate location;
  • referral information;
  • cookies or similar identifiers.

Google states that Analytics may collect first-party cookies, browser/device information, site activity, and an IP address during collection, while Google Analytics does not log or store the IP address itself in Analytics reporting systems.

We use Analytics information to understand general site usage, identify popular or problematic pages, and improve the website. Analytics reporting is generally reviewed in aggregate rather than being used by us to identify individual visitors personally.

Google’s official documentation provides more information about how Google Analytics safeguards and processes data and offers a Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

Google requires websites using Google Analytics to disclose its use and relevant data processing.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small pieces of information that websites or services can store through your browser.

VocalRangeTester.com may use cookies or similar technologies for purposes such as:

  • website functionality;
  • analytics and measurement;
  • security or technical operation;
  • advertising, where advertising services are enabled.

For example, Google Analytics may use a first-party _ga cookie to distinguish users and sessions, depending on the site’s configuration and consent settings.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some technologies may affect how parts of a website or measurement system function.

For more information, see our Cookies Policy.

Where applicable law requires consent for particular non-essential cookies or similar technologies, those technologies should be handled in accordance with the site’s consent configuration and applicable requirements.

Advertising

VocalRangeTester.com may use third-party advertising services, including Google AdSense, when advertising is enabled on the site.

Advertising providers may use cookies, identifiers, device information, or related technologies to deliver, measure, secure, or personalize advertising according to their own systems, settings, and applicable consent requirements.

Advertising technologies are separate from the site’s microphone-processing workflow.

Google’s handling of information is governed by its own privacy policies and advertising settings.

If advertising services are disabled or changed, this policy may be updated to reflect the site’s current configuration.

Service Providers

We may rely on service providers to operate and maintain VocalRangeTester.com.

These may include:

Hostinger
Website hosting, server infrastructure, logs, reliability, and security.

WordPress and website plugins
Content management, site functionality, forms, and related website operations.

Google Analytics
Website analytics and usage measurement.

Google advertising services
Advertising and related measurement when those services are enabled.

These providers may process limited information where necessary to provide their services and generally operate under their own privacy terms and technical configurations.

How We Use Information

Information processed through VocalRangeTester.com may be used to:

  • provide and operate the website;
  • deliver requested website functionality;
  • generate tool results;
  • understand general website usage;
  • improve content and tools;
  • investigate bugs and technical problems;
  • maintain website reliability and security;
  • respond to messages and corrections;
  • prevent spam or abuse;
  • comply with applicable legal obligations.

We do not intentionally use microphone recordings to build personal voice profiles tied to registered user identities.

Data Retention

Different information may have different retention periods.

Contact submissions may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to manage correspondence, investigate an issue, maintain appropriate records, protect the website, or satisfy applicable legal requirements.

Hosting and technical logs may be retained according to the configuration and policies of the relevant hosting or infrastructure provider.

Google Analytics retention depends partly on the Analytics property’s configured settings and Google’s own retention controls. Google provides configurable retention periods for certain user- and event-level Analytics data.

We aim not to retain personal information longer than reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it is processed.

Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect the website and information processed through it.

However, no website, hosting system, form, email system, or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

The site’s local-processing approach for supported microphone tools is intended to reduce the need for VocalRangeTester.com to receive or store voice recordings during normal pitch analysis.

Children’s Privacy

VocalRangeTester.com is a general-audience educational website and is not designed to knowingly solicit unnecessary personal information from children.

If a parent or guardian believes that a child has submitted personal information through the site and wants to raise a concern, please contact us through the Contact page.
