Log Files
Audioexperiment.com follows a standard procedure of using log files. These files log visitors when they visit websites. All hosting companies do this and a part of hosting services' analytics. The information collected by log files include internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamp, referring/exit pages, and possibly the number of clicks. These are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable. The purpose of the information is for analyzing trends, administering the site, tracking users' movement on the website, and gathering demographic information.
Cookies and Web Beacons
Audioexperiment.com uses 'cookies'. These cookies are used to store information including visitors' preferences, and the pages on the website that the visitor accessed or visited. The information is used to optimize the users' experience by customizing our web page content based on visitors' browser type and/or other information.
For more general information on cookies, please read the Cookies article on Generate Privacy Policy website.
Analytics
This site uses Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages are read. It is loaded only if you accept the "Performance and Analytics" category in the cookie banner, and it sets cookies beginning with _ga in your browser. If you decline, the script is never loaded. You can change your choice at any time from the cookie settings link, and Google's own policy is at policies.google.com/privacy.
What the tools store in your browser
The calculators and listening tests on this site run entirely in your browser. Audio you play, including any file you choose yourself, is never uploaded – it is decoded locally and it never leaves your computer.
Some tools remember settings so that you do not have to set them up again. This is kept in your own browser, in localStorage and sessionStorage, and it is not sent anywhere and not readable by us:
- the player's volume and whether its panel is collapsed
- the room reflection auralisation tool's room, speaker and listener settings, and – if you ask it to precompute a sharper directivity model – the result of that computation, which is a few hundred kilobytes
- the vertical reflections calculator's saved setups
Clearing your browser's site data for audioexperiment.com removes all of it.
Advertising
Audioexperiment.com carries no advertising, and there are no advertising partners or ad networks. No third-party ad servers, ad cookies or web beacons are used on this site. If that ever changes, this section will say what changed before it happens.
Third Party Privacy Policies

You can choose to disable cookies through your individual browser options. To know more detailed information about cookie management with specific web browsers, it can be found at the browsers' respective websites.
