Privacy Policy

Last Updated: November 4, 2025

Introduction

AI OR ME ("we," "our," "us") operates isingbetter.com. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you participate in our vocal competition platform.

Information We Collect

  • Email address for account registration and notifications
  • Artist name and stage name for public display
  • Original vocal recordings (acapella submissions only)
  • Voting activity and contest participation data
  • Payment information for royalty distribution via DistroKid

How We Use Your Voice Data

YOUR VOICE IS YOURS. We are crystal clear about this:

✅ We ONLY use your vocals for:

  • Contest voting and judging
  • Distribution to DistroKid for royalty-earning streams
  • Public leaderboards and promotional materials (with your entry)

❌ We will NEVER:

  • Sell your voice data to third parties
  • Use your vocals to train AI models without explicit written consent
  • Repurpose your recordings for commercial use beyond contest distribution
  • Share your voice data with AI voice cloning companies

Voice Conversion Transparency

  • Your uploaded vocal is your original, authentic voice
  • There is NO AI processing or voice conversion on submissions
  • This is a competition of real, unprocessed human vocals
  • Judges and voters hear your actual voice, not a conversion

Data Storage & Security

  • Voice files stored on secure encrypted servers
  • Payment data processed through DistroKid (we never store payment info)
  • Email communications via GetResponse (GDPR compliant)
  • SSL encryption on all data transmissions

Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Request deletion of your account and voice data at any time
  • Withdraw from contests before results are calculated
  • Opt out of promotional emails (you'll still get contest updates)
  • Request a copy of your data (email: [email protected])

Third-Party Services

We use the following services:

  • DistroKid: Music distribution and royalty payments
  • GetResponse: Email notifications (advancement/elimination alerts)
  • Hosting Provider: Secure file storage for voice recordings

These services have their own privacy policies. We've vetted them for security and data protection.

Cookies & Tracking

  • Essential cookies for login and session management
  • Analytics to improve contest experience (anonymized data)
  • No third-party advertising trackers

Affiliate Links

Some content may contain affiliate links to music distribution platforms. We may earn commission if you sign up through these links. This does NOT affect your contest participation or results.
