Hum – Privacy Policy

Last updated: 11 October 2026

This policy covers the Android app Hum (package com.omi.musicplayer), published by omidcc ("we").

What we collect

We do not collect, store or receive any personal information. Hum has no account of its own and runs no servers of our own. It plays the audio files already on your phone.

What stays on your device

Hum reads your phone's local media library (song files, embedded album art, and folder cover images) to build your Library, Home and Search screens. It never uploads this library, your file names, or your listening history anywhere. Your playlists, favorites, play history and preferences (shuffle, repeat, equalizer settings, sleep timer) are stored in a local database on your device only, and are removed when you clear the app's data or uninstall it.

Lyrics lookup

When you look up or sync lyrics for a song, Hum sends that song's title, artist and duration to lrclib.net, a free, open lyrics database, to find a match. No other file or personal data is sent. This only happens when you open a song's Lyrics screen or the lyrics editor.

Advertising

Hum shows ads through Google AdMob to support free use of the app: a small banner on a few screens, and an optional rewarded ad you can choose to watch for a temporary ad-free period. Before any ad is requested, Google's User Messaging Platform asks for your consent if you're in the EEA, UK or another region that requires it. AdMob may collect device and advertising identifiers to serve and measure ads, and, to the extent you've consented, to personalize them — handled under the Google Privacy Policy. You can view or reset your ad personalization choices any time in Google Ads Settings.

Permissions

Hum asks for permission to read your media library (to build your library), post notifications (for the playback notification and lock-screen controls), and modify audio settings (for the equalizer). It does not access your location, contacts, camera, microphone or files outside your media library.

Backups

Hum allows Android's standard Auto Backup, so your playlists and preferences may be included in the backup your phone already keeps in your own Google Account. That backup is managed by Android, not by us, and isn't accessible to us.

Sharing

We do not sell or share data with anyone. The only data that leaves your device is the lyrics-lookup request described above, and the advertising data described above.

Children

Hum isn't directed at children under 13 and doesn't knowingly collect information from anyone, including children.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
