Hangar Labs
Privacy Policy
LAST UPDATED 2026-07-02
Hangar Labs LLC ("we," "us") builds small software in Virginia,
USA. This policy covers our apps — Overhead Sky and
Stochastic Music Tyrant — and this website. The short
version: we collect as little as possible, we never sell your data, and
we run no advertising or cross-site trackers.
What we collect, in general
We are built around keeping data on your device. Where information must
travel, it goes through our own servers (hosted on Cloudflare) or the
specific third parties named below, never to a data broker or ad network.
We do not build advertising profiles and we do not sell, rent, or trade
personal information.
Overhead Sky
Overhead Sky names the aircraft passing over you.
- Your location stays on your device. Overhead uses your
approximate location locally to know which patch of sky to ask about. Your
precise coordinates are not sent to us.
- Aircraft queries go to adsb.lol, the volunteer ADS-B
network, using a rounded position (about a kilometer of blur). Like any
site you visit, adsb.lol sees your IP address. Route lookups go through our
server (api.overheadsky.com), which keeps short-lived, coarse geographic
cache entries to reduce cost; these are not tied to your identity.
- No account is required to use Overhead's core features.
- Direct purchase records: if you buy from us directly, we
store your purchase email and a license record so we can issue and validate
your license key (see Payments).
Stochastic Music Tyrant
Stochastic Music Tyrant is a shuffle player for a library you already own
on Apple Music or Spotify.
- Sign-in. You authorize the app with Apple Music (via
Sign in with Apple) or Spotify. To keep you signed in across sessions and
devices, our server stores a stable account identifier and, for Spotify, an
encrypted access-refresh token. We use the minimum
permissions needed to read your library and control playback.
- Your listening is between your device and Apple/Spotify.
Playback and library reads flow directly between your device and the music
service; we do not receive or store your listening history.
- The tyrant's ledgers — banished songs, pardons, reign
history — are stored locally in your browser or app, not on our servers.
- Optional playlists. On Spotify, banishing or favoriting
a song can mirror to two private playlists in your own account
("The Block," "The Pardoned"). We never modify anything else in your
library.
- Purchase status is stored on our server, keyed to your
account identifier, so your one-time purchase follows you (see
Payments).
Payments
Purchases made directly from us are processed by Stripe.
Card details go to Stripe and never touch our servers — we
never see or store your card number. We retain only a purchase record: an
order identifier, your account identifier or purchase email, a timestamp, and
(for desktop products) an issued license key. Purchases made through the
Apple App Store or Google Play are handled by those platforms under their
terms.
Third parties we rely on
We share only what each service needs to do its job:
- Stripe — payment processing.
stripe.com/privacy
- Apple — Sign in with Apple and Apple Music (MusicKit),
and App Store distribution. apple.com/legal/privacy
- Spotify — library access and playback for the Spotify
edition. spotify.com privacy
- Cloudflare — hosting, our API proxy, and the licensing
service; standard server logs. cloudflare.com privacy
- Aircraft data providers (for Overhead Sky) — adsb.lol,
the source of live aircraft positions, queried by the app with a rough
position; route data is served through our proxy.
- Google Play — distribution of the Android app.
We are not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Apple or Spotify.
Your choices and rights
- Revoke access to your music account any time at
Apple ID settings or spotify.com/account/apps; this cuts the app off from
your library.
- Delete your data. Email us and we will delete your
stored account identifier, token, and purchase record. Note that deleting a
purchase record may end access you paid for.
- Local data (ledgers, caches) clears when you sign out
or clear the app's storage.
- Children. Our apps are not directed to children under
13, and we do not knowingly collect their data.
- Location. Depending on where you live (for example the
EU/UK or California), you may have rights to access, correct, or delete your
personal data; contact us to exercise them.
We may update this policy as the apps evolve; material changes will be
reflected by the date above. Questions or requests:
[email protected].
