When Connecting to Our Radio Streams
When you listen to our radio streams, your IP address is sent to our radio service provider. This is necessary to monitor listening trends and to fulfil licensing requirements for royalty reporting.
Once received, your IP is immediately anonymised and deleted, making it untraceable. This data is never sold or shared with any third party.

For iOS Apps
The DCRadio Hub iOS App does not collect any personal user data when installed or launched on your device.
⸻
For Android Apps
The DCRadio Hub Android App does not collect any personal data during use.
To support audio playback control while using your phone, the app may monitor the state of the phone app (e.g., idle, in-call, call ended). However:
• It does not access phone numbers.
• It does not record conversations.
• It does not collect any sensitive personal data.
The app may also request permission to access local storage. This is used solely to store configuration files to improve launch speed and overall performance.
