• Album artwork: Retrieved from Apple's MusicKit API and iTunes Search API to display on the vinyl record. These requests go directly to Apple's servers.
• Your saved collection: Records you save are stored locally on your Mac using SwiftData. This data never leaves your device.

Third-Party Services

VinylPlayer does not integrate any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services.
