What the arena processes.

Local files and audio analysis

Audio or video files selected from your device are played and analysed in your browser. They are not uploaded to the Prismatic Arena media bridge. Analysis results and the temporary browser media URL remain on the device for the active page session.

Microphone

Microphone access is requested only after you choose live microphone mode. Audio is analysed locally for features such as level, frequency energy and tempo. It is not intentionally recorded, uploaded or routed back through the application speakers.

YouTube links

When you submit a supported YouTube URL after the rewarded access flow, the video identifier and your network request reach the Prismatic Arena server. The server uses yt-dlp to retrieve supported media and stores the resulting media and basic metadata in a shared cache. Cached media can be served to later requests for the same video. Do not submit private, confidential or unauthorized media.

Preferences and storage

Player preferences such as volume, graphics quality, camera mode and reduced-motion choices are saved in browser local storage. Google-managed web interstitials may also use local storage for frequency control where permitted.

Advertising and consent

Google Ad Manager supplies rewarded, banner and limited interstitial advertising. Test inventory is used until live publisher configuration is complete. For regions where consent is required, Google’s certified consent platform presents choices and communicates them to the advertising system. You can revisit those choices with the “Privacy choices” button in the footer.

Server logs and abuse prevention

The server may process IP addresses, request paths, timestamps and operational error information to deliver media, apply short-term request limits and protect the service. Rate-limit records are temporary and held in memory. Hosting infrastructure may retain access logs under its own configured retention.

Your choices

You may use the free demo without submitting custom media, decline a rewarded ad, avoid microphone access, clear local storage in your browser and use the consent controls where available. A public privacy contact is a release requirement and will appear on the contact page.
