Privacy

Short version: Aura doesn’t track you.

In the app

  • No analytics, no telemetry, no crash reporting services.
  • Album art, track titles and colors are processed on your Mac and never leave it.
  • Aura asks for Automation access to Music and Spotify only if the standard Now Playing source stops working.

What goes over the network

  • License activation and a check at most once a day: your license key, an activation ID, your Mac’s model identifier (for example “Mac16,8”) and a random install ID. Sent to Polar, our payment provider.
  • Update checks: Aura downloads the update feed from this website. No system profile is sent.

Purchases

  • Payments are handled by Polar as the merchant of record. Your payment details go to Polar and its card processor, never to us.
  • We see the email address and country you enter at checkout, to send your license and handle support.

This website

  • No cookies, no analytics and no third-party trackers.
  • Our host keeps standard server logs to run the site securely.
