​

This Privacy Policy also describes the rights and choices that may be available to you regarding your personal information.

Our Terms of Service govern your use of the Services. Our Community Guidelines & Acceptable Use Policy establish additional rules regarding content and conduct on Sona.

​

If you become a Sona creator, we may also collect information reasonably necessary to administer that relationship, including payment or payout information, tax information where required, contractual records, and related business information.

​

Sona is an adult-oriented platform intended exclusively for individuals 18 years of age or older. Sona may include both SFW and NSFW content.

​

We recognize that information about how users interact with adult or intimate content may be particularly private.

5. Legal Bases for Processing

​

If you live in a jurisdiction that requires us to identify a legal basis for processing personal information, such as the European Economic Area ("EEA"), United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we may process personal information based on one or more of the following:

​

Performance of a Contract

​

We process information when necessary to provide Services you request or perform our contractual obligations to you.

For example, we may process creator information to administer a creator agreement or account and transaction information to provide a subscription or paid feature.

​

Legitimate Interests

​

We may process information when reasonably necessary for our legitimate business interests or those of another party, provided those interests are not overridden by applicable privacy rights.

​

These interests may include developing and operating Sona, reviewing creator applications, communicating with prospective creators, improving our Services, protecting users and creators, maintaining security, preventing fraud and abuse, enforcing our policies, understanding how the Services are used, and supporting our business operations.

​

Consent

​

We may process information based on your consent where required or appropriate, including certain marketing communications.

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time, subject to applicable law. Withdrawal does not affect processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn.

​

Legal Obligations

​

We may process personal information when necessary to comply with applicable laws, regulations, legal processes, tax or accounting requirements, or other legal obligations.

​

6. How We Disclose Personal Information

​

We may disclose personal information in the circumstances described below.

​

A. Service Providers

​

We may disclose personal information to vendors, contractors, and service providers that help us operate, develop, secure, and support the Services.

​

Depending on the services and technologies in use, these providers may assist with functions such as:

​

• Website hosting and development;

• Application and form processing;

• Cloud hosting and infrastructure;

• Payment processing;

• Creator payouts;

• Authentication;

• Analytics;

• Email and communications;

• Customer support;

• Security and fraud prevention;

• Software development and technical services; and

• Data storage and management.

• ​

These providers may process personal information as necessary to provide services to Sona and subject to applicable contractual and legal requirements.

​

As the Services develop, the providers we use may change.

​

B. Other Users and Creators

​

As public and community features become available, information you intentionally make public through your profile, published content, comments, creator page, or other public features may be visible to other users or the public.

​

Where necessary to provide subscriptions, tips, custom content, community features, or other user-to-creator interactions, limited information may also be provided to the applicable creator or user.

​

We do not intentionally provide creators with a listener's complete payment-card information.

​

Creator applications, auditions, portfolios, and materials submitted privately to Sona are not made public solely because you submit them through our application or audition process.

​

C. Legal, Safety, and Enforcement Purposes

​

We may disclose information when we reasonably believe doing so is necessary to:

​

• Comply with applicable law, regulation, subpoena, court order, legal process, or valid governmental request;

• Investigate or respond to suspected illegal activity;

• Enforce our Terms of Service, Community Guidelines, creator agreements, or other policies;

• Detect, investigate, or prevent fraud, security incidents, abuse, or prohibited activity;

• Protect the rights, privacy, property, or safety of Sona, our users, creators, or others; or

• Establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

 

D. Business Transactions

​

If Sona is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, reorganization, bankruptcy, sale of assets, or similar corporate transaction, personal information may be disclosed or transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.

​

E. With Your Direction or Consent

​

We may disclose information to another party when you direct us to do so or otherwise provide consent.

​

7. Sale, Sharing, Advertising, and Analytics

 

Sona does not sell personal information for money.

​

We may use service providers and technologies to support analytics, measure performance, understand how our website and Services are used, and support our communications and marketing activities.

​

Certain privacy laws may define terms such as "sale," "sharing," or "targeted advertising" more broadly than an exchange of personal information for money. If Sona engages in activities that are considered a sale, sharing, or targeted advertising under applicable law, we will provide any notices, choices, or opt-out mechanisms required by law.

​

8. Data Retention

 

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including operating and developing the Services, reviewing and administering creator applications and relationships, maintaining appropriate business records, complying with legal obligations, resolving disputes, preventing fraud and abuse, enforcing our agreements, and protecting the safety and integrity of Sona.

​

Retention periods may vary based on:

​

• The type and sensitivity of the information;

• The reason the information was collected;

• Whether you are an applicant, creator, user, or mailing-list subscriber;

• How long your account remains active, where applicable;

• Applicable legal, tax, accounting, or contractual requirements;

• Fraud, safety, or security considerations; and

• Whether information is relevant to an ongoing application, creator relationship, report, investigation, dispute, or legal proceeding.

 

Creator applications, auditions, portfolios, and related communications may be retained for a reasonable period to evaluate your application, administer current or potential opportunities, maintain appropriate business records, or consider you for future opportunities, subject to applicable law.

​

If you would like to request deletion of application or audition information you previously submitted, you may contact us using the information provided in the "Contact Us" section below. Certain information may be retained where permitted or required by law or reasonably necessary for legitimate business, contractual, security, or legal purposes.

​

Transaction and tax records may need to be retained for legally required periods even after an account or creator relationship ends.

​

When personal information is no longer reasonably necessary, we will delete, de-identify, or otherwise dispose of it in accordance with applicable requirements.

​

9. Account and Data Deletion

 

Where account functionality is available, you may request deletion of your Sona account and associated personal information using the account deletion functionality or designated account deletion process made available through the Services.

​

You may also contact us at hello@sonaaudios.com to request deletion of personal information associated with a creator application, audition, mailing-list subscription, or other interaction with Sona, subject to applicable law.

​

When applicable information is deleted, Sona will delete or de-identify personal information associated with your request, subject to information we are permitted or required to retain for purposes such as:

​

• Legal and regulatory compliance;

• Tax and accounting requirements;

• Contractual obligations;

• Fraud prevention;

• Security;

• Dispute resolution;

• Enforcement of our agreements and policies;

• Protection of Sona and our users; and

• Establishing, exercising, or defending legal claims.

 

Information may remain in secure backups for a limited period before being deleted through our normal backup processes.

We may retain aggregated or de-identified information that can no longer reasonably be associated with you.

​

Where applicable, deletion of your Sona account may not automatically cancel an active subscription purchased through a third-party marketplace or payment provider. You may need to separately cancel the subscription through the provider through which it was purchased.

​

10. Security

 

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, acquisition, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

​

However, no system, network, electronic transmission, or method of storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure. We therefore cannot guarantee the absolute security of personal information.

​

Where account functionality is available, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and should notify us promptly if you believe your account has been compromised.

​

11. Your Privacy Rights and Choices

 

Privacy rights vary depending on where you live.

​

Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to:

​

• Request access to personal information we maintain about you;

• Request correction of inaccurate personal information;

​

12. Exercising Your Privacy Rights

​

To exercise an applicable privacy right, contact us at hello@sonaaudios.com or use privacy controls provided through the Services where available.

​

Your request should provide sufficient information for us to understand your request and reasonably verify your identity.

​

We may request additional information when reasonably necessary to verify that the request relates to you. We will use information submitted for verification only for purposes related to processing the request, except as otherwise permitted by law.

We will not require you to provide highly sensitive information, such as a full Social Security number or complete payment-card number, solely to submit a privacy request.

​

If we cannot reasonably verify your identity or authority to make a request, we may be unable to fulfill some or all of the request.

Where applicable law permits an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf, we may require appropriate documentation establishing the agent's authority and may separately verify your identity.

​

We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.

​

If we deny a request in whole or in part, we will provide the information required by applicable law regarding the decision and any available appeal rights.

​

13. Marketing Communications

​

If you choose to join our mailing list or otherwise consent to receive marketing communications, Sona may send you launch updates, creator news, announcements, information about Sona, and other promotional communications.

​

You may opt out of promotional emails at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions contained in those communications.

​

Even if you opt out of promotional communications, we may continue to send non-promotional messages where applicable relating to your creator application, creator relationship, account, transactions, security, customer support, policy or legal notices, and other administrative matters relating to the Services.

​

Where Sona uses text messages, push notifications, or other marketing channels in the future, additional consent and opt-out mechanisms may apply.

​

14. U.S. State Privacy Rights

​

Subject to applicable law, California residents may have rights to request access, correction, or deletion of personal information and to obtain information concerning certain collection, use, disclosure, sale, or sharing practices.

​

If Sona engages in activity considered a "sale" or "sharing" of personal information under California law, we will provide the legally required mechanisms for exercising applicable opt-out rights.

​

California residents also have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment prohibited by law for exercising applicable privacy rights.

​

​

Complaint

You may have the right to lodge a complaint with the applicable data protection authority in your country or region.

These rights may be subject to conditions and exceptions under applicable law.

​

16. International Data Transfers

Sona is based in the United States, and personal information collected through the Services may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in the United States or other countries where Sona or its service providers operate.

​

Those countries may have privacy and data protection laws that differ from those in your country of residence.

​

Where applicable law requires specific safeguards for international transfers of personal information, Sona will use appropriate legally recognized mechanisms or safeguards for those transfers.

​

17. Children's Privacy

​

Sona is intended exclusively for adults and is not directed to individuals under the age of 18.

​

Individuals under the age of 18 may not apply or audition to become Sona creators or access age-restricted Sona Services.

​

We do not knowingly permit individuals under 18 to create accounts or otherwise participate in Services restricted to adults.

​

If we learn that we have collected personal information from an individual under 18 in violation of our age requirements, we will take appropriate steps to delete the information and terminate or restrict the associated account, application, or participation, subject to applicable legal obligations.

​

If you believe an individual under 18 is using Sona or has provided personal information to us in violation of these requirements, please contact us at hello@sonaaudios.com.

​

18. Third-Party Services and External Links

​

The Services may contain links to, integrate with, or rely upon third-party websites, applications, form providers, payment processors, app marketplaces, authentication providers, analytics providers, hosting providers, email providers, social networks, or other services.

​

For example, Sona may use third-party services to host its website, collect creator applications and auditions, deliver communications, process payments, or provide technical infrastructure.

​

Those third-party services are not controlled by Sona and may collect or process information according to their own privacy policies and practices.

​

This Privacy Policy does not govern information you provide directly to a third party or information collected independently by third-party services.

​

We encourage you to review the privacy policies and terms of third-party services you choose to use.

​

19. Changes to This Privacy Policy

 

We may update this Privacy Policy as Sona develops and launches additional features or to reflect changes to our Services, data practices, technology, legal requirements, or other circumstances.

​

When we update this Privacy Policy, we will post the revised version and update the "Last Updated" date.

​

Where required by applicable law, we will provide additional notice before material changes take effect.
