AppRadio App
PRIVACY POLICY
AppRadio App (“App”) is a mobile application that allows you to launch AppRadio compatible applications from your smartphone.
Your privacy is important to Pioneer (“Pioneer” or “we”) and we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. To better protect your privacy and to be transparent, we provide this Privacy Policy explaining how we and some of the companies we work with collect, use, share and protect your information (“information” or “data”).
Before you use the App, you should read through this Privacy Policy completely and make sure that you are comfortable with our privacy practices.
Pioneer itself does not collect information from you (neither directly or indirectly identifiable nor non-identifiable information).
A third party called Flurry Inc. (“Flurry”) collects analytics information and device identifiers automatically collected from your device such as agent version, platform, SDK version, timestamp, API key (identifier for App), App version, iOS device identifier for advertising, iOS device identifier for Vendors, Android ID, BB Pin, Media Access Control (MAC) address, International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI), device model, manufacture and OS version of the device, session start/stop time, IP address, device type, locale (specific location where a given language is spoken), time zone, network status (WiFi etc.), events, errors, page views, mobile carrier, language setting, geographic region, number of new App users per day, number of sessions per day, number and type of third-party apps launched, and the App version.
The third-party analytics tool, called Flurry Analytics, uses data sent to Flurry’s servers from a Flurry software agent embedded in the App on your device. The Flurry Privacy Policy can be retrieved via http://www.flurry.com/privacy-policy.html.
Information collected through Flurry Analytics is used by Flurry to provide Pioneer with App and AppRadio aggregated, non-identifiable usage information.
In this regard, Pioneer Corporation is the controller for the processing of the information. It is a Japanese corporation, established at 28-8 Honkomagome 2-chome, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113-0021, Japan. Pioneer’s European representative is Pioneer Europe NV (European Emarketing Division - Privacy Office), established at Haven 1087 - Keetberglaan 1, 9120 Melsele, Belgium. Pioneer’s subsidiary in the US is Pioneer Electronics (USA) Inc., established at 1925 E. Dominguez Street, Long Beach, California 90180 U.S.A.
Information is also used to improve Flurry’s services, including Flurry’s analytics and advertising services. Flurry may especially use the information to target the advertising you see on some of the other apps on your device.
In this regard, Flurry Inc. is the controller for the processing of the information. It is a US based corporation, established at 360 3rd St. Ste. 750, San Francisco, CA 94107 U.S.A. (privacy@flurry.com).
Flurry Analytics “hashes” iOS device identifiers, MAC address and IMEI, meaning it transforms the identifiers into a new value or key representing the original identifier, a Flurry ID. Flurry does not hash platform device identifiers such as the iOS Identifier for advertising, Android ID and the BB Pin. The information will not be retained in a form allowing identification.
Pioneer receives aggregated, non-identifiable reports on usage from Flurry (“reports” or “App usage data”). Pioneer uses those reports to track how the AppRadio product, AppRadio App and compatible third-party apps are used in order to
- improve Pioneer products and services;
- conduct research, analysis, studies, and new product and service development;
- report to third party application providers on the use of their apps via Appradio.

- Flurry Analytics
Pioneer does not store any information on its servers.
Pioneer has instituted reasonable and appropriate measures to ensure the information is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and to help prevent it from becoming disclosed to individuals who are not described in this Privacy Policy.
We choose service providers (like Flurry) that we believe provide sufficient guarantees in respect of security. We demand the same security measures from the service providers as we impose on ourselves. We conclude a contract with every service provider and thereby stipulate the service provider’s duties to ensure data protection. Although we make every effort to protect your personal information and privacy, we are unable to guarantee the absolute security of the information.
Third parties with whom the information is shared, like Flurry, may have their servers outside the European Union.
By accepting this Privacy Policy, you consent to the transfer, storage, processing, and other use of the information in third countries outside the European Union. You acknowledge that the information may consequently be subject to the privacy and data protection laws that may not be the same as such laws and regulations in your country of residence.
You have the right to consult the information, have it corrected free of charge or have it deleted.
