Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 2026

Chordna (chordna.com) is a music encyclopedia. We do not require user accounts, and we do not collect personal data beyond standard analytics. This policy explains what data is collected, why, and your rights under the GDPR.

1. What Data We Collect

Chordna does not require registration or login. We do not collect your name, email address, or any other personally identifiable information unless you contact us voluntarily.

When you visit Chordna, we collect anonymous usage data via Google Analytics 4 (GA4). This includes:

  • Pages visited and time spent
  • Browser type and operating system
  • Country/region (not city-level precision)
  • Referring website (how you found us)
  • Interactions with site features (search queries, song views)

This data is aggregated and anonymized — it cannot be used to identify you personally.

2. Cookies and analytics

Analytics runs only if you accept it. Nothing from Google is requested and no _ga cookie exists on your device until you press Accept on the banner — refusing is one click in the same place, and we remember either answer for up to 24 months before asking again.

If you accept, Google Analytics 4 places cookies (such as _ga and _ga_*) on your device to distinguish visitors and measure site usage.

We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels from social networks, or session-recording tools.

Google Analytics is provided by Google Ireland Ltd and may involve a transfer of data to Google LLC in the United States, covered by the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and Google's standard contractual clauses.

We also use Cloudflare Web Analytics for aggregate visitor counts. It sets no cookies, stores nothing on your device and does no fingerprinting, so it needs no consent and runs on our legitimate interest in knowing how many people visit.

Two things are stored on your device regardless, because the site cannot work without them: your language choice and your answer to the cookie banner itself.

You can change your mind whenever you like — the decision is yours to undo, and withdrawing is as easy as granting:

3. How We Use Data

Analytics data is used exclusively to:

  • Understand which songs and features are most useful
  • Identify and fix technical errors
  • Improve content quality and site performance

We do not sell, share, or monetize your data with third parties.

5. Your GDPR Rights

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have the following rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):

  • Right of access — request a copy of any personal data we hold about you
  • Right to erasure — request deletion of your personal data
  • Right to object — object to processing of your personal data
  • Right to restrict processing — request we limit how we use your data

Since Chordna does not collect personally identifiable information, most of these rights apply primarily to any voluntary contact you initiate with us. To exercise any right, contact us at the email below.

6. Children's Privacy

Chordna is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
