That mission covers our offline activities and extends to our online community as well through our websites, applications, and connected services (which we collectively call the “Services”) and that’s why we also refer to our online community members as “Musicians & Music Teachers” Our privacy policy describes what Personal Data we collect online and offline and how we use and share that information.

Who We Are
We are Omamo LLP. See the Terms and Conditions of Use for additional information. We provide an internet and mobile application based service including the app below:
MyTractice
MyTractice Studio
MyTractice Social Hub
Information We Collect
MyTractice collects information to operate our business and provide you with innovative music education solutions. We collect both Personal Data and Other Information in support of these efforts.
- “Personal Data” is information that can be used, directly or indirectly, alone or together with other information, to identify you as an individual Musician. This may include your precise Location Data and your Performance Data.
- “Other Information” is information that is anonymous, aggregate, de-identified, or otherwise does not reveal your identity. Some examples include age, gender, browser and operating system, time spent using our Services, and webpages visited. We collect and use this information to understand how you and our community as a whole use our Services and constantly tune, enhance, innovate and build products and services to reflect the needs of Musicians. When you are using a mobile device, we also collect and use your Apple Identifier for Advertising (IDFA) and Google Advertising ID (AAID) to recognize your device and support advertising activities on our Services. These number values are not permanently tied to your device and, depending on your operating system, you can reset it through your device settings.
Generally, we do not consider Other Information to be Personal Data. Regardless, if we link together Other Information in a way that renders it individually identifiable, we will treat the combined information as Personal Data.
We collect Personal Data in the following ways:
- When you register with us, we collect registration and demographic details (.e.g., name, username and password, email address, age range, and location).
When you set up a MyTractice account, we will collect your name, username and password, email address, date of birth, and location (e.g., country). We may also collect your postal code, contact number and information about your mobile device (e.g., name of your wireless carrier and device identifier). In addition, we may collect certain demographic information at registration to tailor our Services to your needs, such as age, gender, fitness and physical characteristics, and sport preferences.
If you submit a job application or apply for a job with MyTractice online, we will collect Personal Data including your contact details, work history, employment needs and interests, and anything relevant to the job for which you are applying. That policy is governed by our Data Privacy Policy for Employees and Employee Candidates.
- When you use or interact with our Services, we collect Personal Data such as Performance Data and Location Data.
Performance Data: We collect your Performance Data to help you track your practice activity levels, goals and progress, to provide you with feedback (such practice insights and product recommendations) and to help us run our business.
We collect Practice Performance Data in several ways:
-
- when you input the data manually into the Services,
- when you employ features in the Services that are designed to capture the data (such as Location Data when using the practice tracker),
- when you leverage technologies that integrate/connect with our Services, such as certain mobile applications, wearables, or other music practice tracking technologies that share Performance Data with our Services, and
- when we calculate additional information from Performance Data you have previously provided (such as when we analyze performance over time).
Here are some examples of Performance Data we collect:
-
- Information about your age range;
- Details about your practice activities, such as topics and sub topics of practice, practice frequency, and performance goals;
- Data about musical performance, such as time spent practicing a topic, proficiency and focus and heart rate;
Location Data: We may collect precise location data as part of the functionality of our Services. For example, to understand the time, duration and locations in which your optimum practice results are achieved and you have enabled geolocation tracking, we will collect your Location Data as you practice and produce practice insights for you. We collect Location Data through the Services so we can offer you certain location-based services (like practice tracking described above), provide advertisements that are relevant to your geographic location, and conduct analytics to improve the Services.
We collect Location Data in several ways:
-
- from your wireless carrier,
- through a wearable or other device you have connected (for example, wirelessly) to our Services, and
- directly from the device on which you use our Services.
The way in which we collect Location Data is different depending on whether you are accessing the Services through a website or a mobile application. The collection of your Location Data may occur even when our Services are not actively open and running.
If you are accessing the Services through one of our mobile applications, the way we collect Location Data will differ depending on your mobile device’s operating system. In all events, we do not collect Location Data, unless you have “allowed” its collection. If you decline to allow Location Data collection in the app, we will not collect your Location Data unless you manually enter it in.
Other Information: We may collect Other Information about your use of our Services. This includes, for example, your device type, carrier provider, browser type, operating system, internet domain and host name, date and time of access as well as referring and onward URL, as well as transactional data about the activities you undertake and how you interact with the Services, such as what data is displayed, clicked on or shared, the click stream patterns, and the length of time spent on each site or page; and searches you may conduct on the Services.
Note on In-Store Tracking: We may collect Location Data in our business partner or third party stores in order to better understand musician preferences and provide product recommendations. If you allow push notifications, Location Data and push notifications may be leveraged to reach out to you if we detect you are in a store related to any aspect of music education. For example, musical instrument accessories, concert promotion or ticket sale
When you connect with us through social media, we may collect account or profile information.
You may choose to enable, log into or sign on to the Services through various social media or social networking services, such as Facebook or Twitter (“Social Networking Services”). When you connect using your Social Networking Services accounts, we may collect Personal Data that you have provided to that Social Networking Service. For example, when you log in with your Facebook credentials, with your consent we may collect Personal Data from your Facebook profile that is permitted under Facebook’s Terms of Use, such as your email address, profile picture, and friend list. If you do not want to provide us with this information you will need to amend the privacy settings on your Social Networking Services account. For more information, please review the privacy disclosures and terms of your Social Networking Services account, which govern how that account information is collected and shared with us.
- When you shop or browse online, we collect purchase and browsing data.
As you browse our products online or submit product inquiries, we may collect Personal Data such as your contact information and your specific requests. We also may collect information about whether or not you completed the purchase, your purchase details, refunds and other transaction information regarding your purchases, such as the product purchased and price you paid. If we are able to associate the purchases with an account you have registered with us (for example, if you use a common credit card, or provide a common email address at the time of purchase) we may add that purchase and transaction information to your account information. We also may collect Other Information when you browse our products but do not make a purchase, such as which products you added then removed from your shopping cart, the order in which you browsed and whether and how these actions appeared to impact the shopping experience. We do this using Data Collection Tools, as described in more detail below.
When you shop online, your transactions will be completed by MyTractice or one of our partners, vendors or suppliers. MyTracice will limit the use of your Personal Data by our partners, vendors and suppliers according to this Privacy Policy, contractual restrictions, and applicable law. If you choose to pay through a third-party mechanism offered on our website, the information you choose to share with that third-party will be treated in accordance with that third-party’s privacy policy.
- When we provide you access to third-party products and services.
If you are accessing third-party products and services that we have made available to you via the Services, we may collect your name, email address, city, payment information, and more, in connection with your registration for and access to those services. For example, we may allow you to register and pay for third-party products and services through the Services. We will only collect and share Personal Data with third parties with your permission.
- When you take surveys and enter challenges, promotions, contests, and sweepstakes, we collect contact, demographic and eligibility information.
We may sponsor contests, challenges, sweepstakes, and other promotions (“Promotions”) and we may request that you provide Personal Data, such as name, address, email address, telephone number and age and other information that may be appropriate in order to participate. If you win, we also may need to collect certain tax information, waivers and releases, depending on the prize.
We may also launch surveys that ask you to answer questions about a range of topics from personal information to brand and product preferences.
Promotions or surveys may also be run by one of our business partners. In such instances, Personal Data may be collected directly by and/or shared with MyTractice, the service provider and/or business partner via print, website, mobile applications or other means. Each Promotion or survey that treats your Personal Data in a way that differs from this Privacy Policy will state the privacy policy governing that collection of information in connection with that Promotion or survey.
Additionally, with your consent we may share your Personal Data associated with a Promotion with our business partners that sponsored or were involved with that particular Promotion.
- When we supplement your information, we collect additional Personal Data about you.
If you have registered or created an account with us, we may obtain demographic information about you from reputable third-party sources to help us improve our communication with you, give us better consumer insight into your needs and improve our business. We may combine your Personal Data, Performance Data and/or the Location Data with information we obtain from our Services, other users, or third parties to enhance your experience and improve the overall quality of our Services, such as providing you with a single point of sign on for our Services and/or building an account dashboard letting you understand how to access and control all the MyTractice Services you use from a single page. For example, we may obtain updated email address information from email-change-of-address vendors or purchase third-party marketing data and address information and add it to our database to better direct our advertising and provide pertinent offers we think you are more likely to be interested in.
- When you engage with our online communities or with advertising on the Services, we may collect Personal Data about those interactions.
We may collect your Personal Data when you engage with our online communities. This includes when you click on advertisements, interact with our social media pages, submit content, leave reviews, or otherwise enter information into comment fields, blogs, message boards, events and other community forums sponsored by or affiliated with MyTractice. These forums are public, so please exercise care in deciding what information and content you wish to disclose. We have the right, but not the obligation, to monitor any activity and remove content within the comment fields, message boards, events and other community forums on the Services (e.g., in order to protect other Musicians). Please review our “Community Guidelines” (found in our Terms and Conditions) for more information regarding appropriate use of our online communities.

How We Use Data Collection Tools and Online Advertising
MyTractice uses cookies and other data collection tools like web beacons to collect data that help us personalize your use of our websites and mobile applications. We also work with a variety of advertisers, advertising networks, advertising servers, and analytics companies (“Ad Partners”) that use various technologies including cookies to collect data about your use of the Services (such as pages visited, ads viewed or clicked on) so that we and our Ad Partners deliver ads to you based on your interests and online activities.
- Information about Cookies
“Cookies” are data files stored within your browser when you interact with a website. These data files allow the site to recall important information about your visit and help improve your experience. By using this technology, we are able to make it easier for visitors to register for accounts, order products, enter and participate in sweepstakes and contests, and offer other functionality on our sites, like showing you ads based on your interests or browsing history. For sites that permit online shopping, we use cookies to remember and process the items in your shopping cart.
We also use cookies to collect information about which device and browser you use to access our sites so we can optimize your access and continually improve functionality. For example, we collect information about your browser type (e.g., Internet Explorer, Safari, or Firefox) and operating system (e.g., Windows, Mac-OS X, IOS, Android etc.), domain name of your Internet service provider, websites visited before and after visiting our sites, pages viewed and activities at our sites, and ads seen or clicked on. We also keep aggregated statistics about the visitors to our sites to help us continually improve how we deliver our online content. For example, we can determine if more visitors prefer certain features or pages to others, which helps us keep our sites fresh and interesting to Musicians and Music teachers.
- Types of Cookies We Use
We use several different types of cookies:
-
- Required
- Strictly necessary cookies: these are cookies that are required for the operation of our websites. Without them, for example, you would not be able to register or log in for any Services that we may offer.
- Functional
- Analytical/performance cookies: these cookies allow us to recognize and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our websites. These helps us to improve the way our websites work, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily and do not encounter technical errors.
- Functionality cookies: these are used to recognize you when you return to our websites. Usage of cookies of this character enables us to personalize our content for you and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region).
- Advertising
- Targeting cookies: these cookies record your visit to our websites, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed. Usage of cookies of this character helps us and our Ad Partners to deliver ads or messages that are relevant to you and your interests. We may also share this information with third parties for this purpose. For example, these cookies allow us to identify and send you messages about items you have left in your cart and make other purchasing recommendations.
- Interaction cookies: because we are interested in your opinion about our brand and items, we use interaction cookies. These cookies allow us to communicate. For example, these cookies allow you to “like” us or recommend us on social media. These social media interaction cookies may collect information about your visit even though you do not interact with them.
- Required
- How We Use Web Beacons
Some of our websites and Services such as e-mail updates may contain electronic images called “web beacons” (sometimes known as one pixel GIFs, clear GIFs or pixel tags). Web beacons allow us to count visitors who have viewed content on websites or pages. In promotional e-mail messages and newsletters, web beacons allow us to count how many subscribers have read them. They also allow us to develop statistical information about the activities and features that most interest our Musicians and Music teachers in order to provide more personalized content. We do not use web beacons to access your Personal Data without your consent.
- We Allow Third-Party Cookies
We may allow third parties to use cookies and to advertise on our Services. We do not control the cookies of third parties. There are free programs you can download from reputable sources that allow you to set your preferences and block the vast majority of third-party cookies.
- How We Engage in Online Advertising
We display ads on websites and mobile applications that we own and operate. Through our Ad Partners, we also display ads for our MyTractice family of companies on websites and mobile applications of third parties. When you visit one of our websites or view ads that we or our Ad Partners serve elsewhere on the web, you may see different kinds of ads, such as text next to search results or video on web pages. Sometimes, these ads are based on the content of the pages on which they appear. Other times, they are generated when our Ad Partners match the ad to your interests, as inferred from your online activities. This is known as interest-based advertising. The goal is to show you ads that will most interest you.
To meet this goal, we and some of Ad Partners use technologies like cookies and web beacons to collect information about your interaction with our Services and other third-party websites (“Online Data”). Typically, Online Data is aggregated with other data to create segments – groups of users and certain general interest categories that our advertising partners have inferred based on a variety of factors (for example, “music fan”). Online Data can include information about:
-
- web pages, apps, products and services you view and links you click on when using our websites and services as well as third-party websites;
- our e-mails that you view and links you click on within that e-mail;
- whether you view or click on ads that are shown to you;
- demographic or interest data, including general geographic location;
- offline purchase data that may be combined with Online Data to create a better profile regarding your interests or purchasing preferences; and
- search terms you enter when using certain search services.
We and our Ad Partners use this Online Data to serve ads online that interest the audiences with whom we interact – including you.
In addition, our Ad Partners use this Online Data for a variety of other purposes, including (a) in conjunction with advertising that appears on our website or other websites, (b) to report website traffic, statistics, advertisement data and other interaction with ads and the websites on which they are served, and (c) to measure the effectiveness of web-based and e-mail ads.
Managing Your Privacy Settings
We provide you several ways to manage your privacy settings:
- Update your default settings for in-app data sharing
The Omamo LLP apps are designed for your practice benefit. As such, you are able to control what and with whom you share your Personal Data. We encourage you to adjust the sharing settings to best meet your objectives and sharing comfort level. In the interest of safeguarding your Personal Data, we have outlined some initial default sharing settings.
As we integrate our existing Services and roll-out new Services the default setting for sharing for MyTractice applications is set as follows.
-
- For Performance Data:
- Your “Practice Stats” are set as Public. For example your practice session data etc. See our profile feature for specific details on how to adjust these settings within our apps.
- Community Social Data once created will be set as Public. For example social posts where you have set your account up as “Follow” (in app and on the websites), community forums, public challenges (challenges set up by MyTractice), and photos. See our sharing standard for specific details on how to adjust these settings within our apps.
- Your Profile is set as Public. We believe that social motivation helps you achieve your goals faster and allowing your friends to be able to find you is crucial to this experience. Therefore, your first and last name, location, gender, username, practice activity, and profile picture are set as Public. If you set your entire account as Private, your lookup data will no longer be available for your friends to find you. See our sharing standard for specific details on how to adjust this setting within our apps.
- For Performance Data:
Details on how to update your sharing preferences and the default settings for our Services are outlined within the sharing standard. Note: When you share information from our Services externally with a Social Networking Service the information you post is governed by their privacy policy and settings.
Note: When you share information from our Services externally with a Social Networking Service the information you post is governed by their privacy policy and settings.
- Opt-out of cookies and interest-based ads
As a user of our Services, you have a number of ways you may communicate your privacy preferences to us. a. Setting your browser to reject cookies If you don’t want cookies, you can set your computer to (a) warn you each time a cookie is being sent or (b) turn off all cookies (except Flash cookies) through your browser. Check your browser “help” menu to learn the correct way to change or update your cookies or visit www.aboutcookies.org. To find out more about how to manage or delete Flash cookies, visit Adobe. Please note that if you do not accept cookies, some features or activities may not be available to you (for example, you may not be able to complete your transaction). You may still purchase online merchandise by calling one of our customer service associates who will gladly assist you in placing your order. b. Opting-out of interest-based advertising We support the Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising of the Digital Advertising Alliance in the US, the Canadian Digital Advertising Alliance in Canada, and the European Digital Advertising Alliance in the EU. Ads that we place online using interest-based data are expected to be delivered with the Enhanced Notice required by those principles. If you live in the United States, Canada, or the European Union, you can visit Ad Choices (US), Your Ad Choices (Canada), or Your Online Choices (EU) to find a convenient place to indicate your preferences, including the option to make one “universal” opt-out of interest-based advertising with participating entities for each region. These websites also provide detailed information about interest-based advertising and tips for managing your online privacy. When you opt-out using these methods, a cookie will be placed on your device indicating that you have opted-out of interest-based advertising. If you delete your cookies, you will need to opt-out again. In addition, when you opt-out using these methods, this does not mean that you will no longer receive advertising from us, or when you use the Internet. It just means that the advertising you see displayed on websites will not be customized to your interests. c. Opting-out of interest-based advertising on your mobile device For most mobile devices, you can control the interest-based ads you see in two different ways: (1) changing the privacy settings of the device itself; and (2) changing the privacy settings of your browser. For example, iOS version 6 and above devices feature Apple’s Advertising Identifier, which allows you to “Limit Ad Tracking” by going to your device’s settings, under “Privacy” and then “Advertising.” You can also modify the settings of your browser, such as Safari, by going to the settings of that browser and under “Privacy and Security,” select “Do Not Track.” Additionally, you can click on the Ad Choices link to opt-out. In addition, please note that if you use ad blocking software on your device, this may interfere with certain features and cause a disruption of service.
- Set your communication preferences
We respect your communication preferences and have created several ways for you to control how MyTractice communicates with you:
-
- Email Communication: You may stop receiving promotional email messages from us by following the unsubscribe instructions provided in any such message you receive. If you use more than one Service then opting out of the emails relating to that Service will not stop you from receiving emails from other Services. Please note that if you unsubscribe from “all emails” this means “all promotional emails” and you still will receive email communications from us that are not promotional in nature.
- Postal Mail: You may stop receiving promotional postal mail from us by following the opt-out instructions that may be included within those communications.
- Mobile Messages: You may stop receiving promotional messages on your mobile device by following the opt-out instructions that are included in any such message you receive.
- Push Notifications: With your permission, MyTractice may use push notifications to let you know about new messages or events even when you are not actively using a Service. You can manage the type of push notifications you receive from MyTractice by modifying the settings of your MyTractice applications and websites. For more information on how to update your push notification settings for our Services please visit here. You may set your mobile device to not allow push notifications from us.
You may also contact us through our Support Team to indicate or update your communication preferences.
- Manage your geolocation services
Most mobile devices provide users with the ability to disable location services. Disabling location services will not allow us to collect your Location Data (by virtue of the location of your mobile device) when you use our Services and may impact the operation of a Service, for example, it will not be possible to track or record your practice session. Most likely, these controls are located in the device’s settings menu. If you have questions about how to disable your device’s location services, we recommend you contact your mobile service carrier or your device manufacturer.
- Downloading App Choices
The DAA offers App Choices, a separate choice tool for users to exercise control over the collection and use of data across and through mobile applications for interest-based advertising and other related uses. To exercise choice for participating companies, you can install the DAA’s App Choices application on your mobile device. Visit here for more information on DAA’s App Choices tool.
