At Hummm, we believe privacy is a fundamental right. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our app.
Our Privacy Promise
We built Hummm with privacy at its core. We don't sell your data, we don't track you across the internet, and we collect only the minimum information necessary to provide our service.
Information We Collect
Information You Provide
- Profile Information: When you create a topic, you provide information about what you'd like to discuss and your general location (city/country).
- Voice Messages: The audio messages you send through the app are temporarily stored to facilitate conversations.
- Usage Data: Basic information about how you use the app (which features you access, when you're active).
Information We Don't Collect
- We don't require email addresses or phone numbers
- We don't collect your real name unless you choose to share it
- We don't track your location beyond what you voluntarily provide
- We don't access your contacts or other personal data on your device
How We Use Your Information
- To Provide Our Service: We use your information to connect you with other users based on shared topics and facilitate voice conversations.
- To Improve Hummm: We analyze usage patterns to make the app better (always in aggregate, never at an individual level).
- To Ensure Safety: We may review reported content to maintain a safe and respectful community.
Data Storage and Security
- Voice messages are stored securely on Amazon Web Services (AWS) servers
- Messages are automatically deleted after 24 hours
- All data is encrypted in transit and at rest
- We use industry-standard security practices to protect your information
Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes. We may share information only in these limited circumstances:
- Service Providers: We work with trusted service providers (like AWS for storage) who help us operate the app. They are contractually required to keep your information confidential.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law or to protect the safety of our users.
Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Delete your account and all associated data at any time
- Request a copy of your data
- Correct any inaccurate information
- Opt out of any optional data collection
Children's Privacy
Hummm is not intended for users under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected information from a child under 13, we will take steps to delete it immediately.
International Users
Hummm is operated in the United States. If you are located outside the U.S., your information will be transferred to and processed in the U.S. By using Hummm, you consent to this transfer.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes through the app. Your continued use of Hummm after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
