High. Hokusai Audio Editor, as stated by its developers from Wooji Juice, tries to gather as little private information as possible about its customers. It clarifies that if someone installs and uses their apps without contacting them, they likely have no information about them at all. They explicitly mention that they do not collect data on your usage of their apps and that none of their apps store information on the cloud in a way that they have access to. They do not use analytics software to track users as they browse the internet, which enhances transparency. The policy respects user consent, especially when it comes to sending technical information or logs. Users have control over what information they send, and nothing is gathered automatically without their explicit action. Wooji Juice does not mention compliance with the GDPR, and the last policy update is from 2018. See more here.
