Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 2026
1. Scope
This Privacy Policy explains how Lyricshala handles information when you browse the site, use search, interact with embedded media, or contact us directly. Lyricshala is designed as a lightweight, search-friendly lyrics and music-reference website, and we aim to keep data collection limited to what is reasonably necessary to operate, secure, and improve the service.
2. Information We Collect
We do not require user accounts, passwords, or paid subscriptions to access Lyricshala. In ordinary site use, we do not ask for your name, address, phone number, or payment details. Like most websites, our hosting and infrastructure providers may process limited technical data such as IP address, browser type, device details, timestamps, referring pages, and basic request logs to deliver and protect the site.
3. Messages You Send Us
If you email us for support, licensing, corrections, takedowns, business questions, or legal notices, we will receive the information you choose to provide, such as your name, email address, company name, and the contents of your message. We use that information only to review, respond to, and document the issue you raised.
4. Cookies, Analytics, and Similar Technologies
Lyricshala does not require first-party advertising cookies for normal browsing. We may use privacy-minded analytics or infrastructure analytics to understand traffic patterns, page performance, and broad geographic usage trends. Those tools may collect aggregated or pseudonymous usage data. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use site analytics to build individual cross-site behavioral profiles.
5. Third-Party Services and Embeds
Some pages may load or link to third-party services such as YouTube, Cloudflare, or external reference pages. On lyric pages, video embeds are loaded only when relevant and may involve third-party requests once you interact with them. Those services operate under their own privacy terms. You can review Google's Privacy Policy and Cloudflare's Privacy Policy for more information about those services.
6. How We Use Information
We use limited site and communication data to operate the website, monitor uptime and abuse, improve page performance, answer emails, process rights complaints, and maintain the security and integrity of the platform. We do not use contact messages for unrelated marketing unless you separately opt in.
7. Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell personal information. We may share limited information with hosting, analytics, security, email, legal, or infrastructure providers when reasonably necessary to run the site or comply with law. We may also preserve or disclose information if required to investigate abuse, protect rights, respond to legal process, or review copyright and licensing complaints.
8. Retention
We keep operational logs, analytics summaries, and email correspondence only for as long as reasonably necessary for security, troubleshooting, legal compliance, recordkeeping, or issue resolution. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of request and the service provider involved.
9. Children's Privacy
Lyricshala is a general-audience website. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in a manner that requires parental consent under applicable law. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us directly, please contact us so we can review and delete it if appropriate.
10. Your Choices
You can limit certain data collection by blocking third-party content, adjusting browser settings, or not contacting us directly through email. If you want us to review, correct, or delete information you sent to us in a direct communication, contact us and we will review the request in line with applicable law and our operational obligations.
11. Copyright Requests
If you believe content on Lyricshala infringes your copyright or related rights, please review our DMCA Policy for information about submitting a notice.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect legal, operational, or product changes. The updated version will appear on this page with a revised “Last updated” date.
