This policy covers the Internet Radio Player extension for Chrome and other Chromium browsers. It adds the details for this extension to the general HotPanCake privacy policy.

Who is responsible

PayForSay s. r. o., Doležalova 3424/15C, Bratislava – Ružinov, 821 04, Slovakia (Reg. No. 54 455 073, VAT SK2121683322) publishes HotPanCake extensions and is the controller of personal data. Contact: info.hotpancake@gmail.com.

What stays on your computer

  • Your list of stations and the last station you played
  • Settings such as the volume and the interface language

This data is kept in Chrome's storage for the extension and is deleted when you remove the extension.

What is sent, and where

  • Station search goes to the public Radio Browser directory (community-run): your search words and, as with any web request, your IP address.
  • Playback connects your browser directly to the radio station's stream server, which sees your IP address like any website you visit.
  • Nothing is sent to HotPanCake.

What is not collected

  • Your browsing history
  • The content of the pages you visit
  • What you listen to (we have no server that could see it)

We do not sell or rent data, do not use it for advertising, and do not use it to determine creditworthiness.

How long data is kept

The extension's data stays in your browser until you delete it or remove the extension. Messages you send through our forms are kept as long as needed to answer, then up to two years.

Your rights

Under the GDPR you can ask for access to your data, correction, deletion, restriction and portability, and you can object to processing. Write to info.hotpancake@gmail.com. You can also complain to the Slovak data protection authority (Úrad na ochranu osobných údajov SR) or the authority in your country.

Changes

We update this page when the extension starts to process data differently. The date at the top shows the current version.
