Privacy Policy

Last updated: 20 October 2026

This policy explains how ChartMyMusic handles information when you visit the site or use its Last.fm and Spotify tools. For privacy questions, contact [email protected].

Information used by the site

You can browse the site without creating an account. When you use a tool, the site processes the information needed to provide it:

  • For Last.fm tools, the Last.fm username and collage options you submit are used to retrieve music information and create your collage.
  • For Spotify tools, Spotify authorisation is used to access the top tracks or artists needed for the collage. The requested permission is limited to reading your top items. The site does not ask for your Spotify password.
  • For picture-to-collage tools, the image you upload is processed to create the collage.
  • Like most websites, the hosting platform and service providers may process technical information such as your IP address, browser, device, and requests to deliver, protect, and operate the site.

Advertising, cookies, and analytics

This site uses Ezoic advertising services and a consent-management tool provided through Gatekeeper. These services may use cookies or similar technologies to remember consent, deliver and measure ads, and, where permitted by your choices and applicable law, personalise advertising. You can review or change your advertising consent using the consent controls shown on the site. You can also manage cookies through your browser; disabling them may affect site or ad features.

The site also uses Google Analytics to understand site usage. Google and Ezoic may receive technical or usage information through their services and handle it under their own privacy policies. The site loads third-party resources, such as fonts and scripts, which may also receive standard connection information from your browser.

Music services and operational notifications

Last.fm and Spotify provide music data or account authorisation when you choose to use their tools. Their handling of your information is governed by their own privacy policies and settings.

Storage and retention

Uploaded images are stored temporarily for processing and are scheduled for deletion after about one minute. Generated collages are temporary and are scheduled for deletion after about five minutes. Some intermediate processing files may be kept briefly to complete or troubleshoot a request. Information handled by third-party services, is subject to their retention practices.

Your choices and rights

You can choose not to use a tool, decline Spotify authorisation, or avoid uploading an image. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to, correction or deletion of personal information, or to object to or restrict certain processing. To ask a question or make a request, email [email protected].

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated as the site or its services change. The latest version will be published on this page with its updated date.
