  • IP addresses

We believe in offering a privacy-first experience to our listeners, and as such, we do not require any user registration or login for accessing our content.

2. Cookies

Athens Noise does not use any first-party cookies on our website. However, certain third-party services embedded within our content may use cookies. These third-party cookies are beyond our control and are governed by the respective privacy policies of the third-party services.

Types of Third-Party Cookies You Might Encounter:

  • Embedded Media (e.g., YouTube, SoundCloud): Some of our embedded content (such as music players or videos) may place cookies from third-party services on your device to enhance your experience. These cookies may track usage metrics and interactions with the embedded media, but they do not give us access to your personal data.
  • Social Media Integrations: If you interact with social media plugins (e.g., "Like" or "Share" buttons), these platforms (such as Facebook, Twitter) may set cookies that track your behavior and interactions. Athens Noise does not access or store any of this data.

Managing Third-Party Cookies:

You can manage and block third-party cookies through your browser settings. Each browser provides controls that allow you to prevent third-party cookies from being installed or notify you when a site uses them.

3. Third-Party Services and Embedded Content

Examples of Third-Party Services We Use:

  • YouTube (for embedded videos)

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of these third-party providers to understand how they handle your data.

Athens Noise respects your privacy rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), applicable to users in the European Economic Area (EEA). Since we do not collect or store any personal data, we do not require consent to process data, nor do we need to implement data access or deletion processes.

However, the third-party services we may integrate (such as YouTube, SoundCloud, and social media platforms) might collect personal data, including cookies or tracking information, based on your interactions. These services have their own GDPR compliance measures in place, and we recommend reviewing their privacy policies for more details on how they process your data.

Athens Noise does not share, sell, or transfer any user data to third parties because we do not collect personal information. We also do not retain any user data from visits to our site.

The website uses standard security practices to prevent unauthorized access to any data potentially processed by third-party services.
