AXION is a project personally operated from Ukraine by Stefan Zherliakov, Founder of AXION. The founder personally receives voluntary support for the project. “AXION Support” and “Founder of AXION” are public-facing labels, not the legal identity of a separate company.
Legal operator / personal-data controller: Stefan Zherliakov.
This notice covers the informational AXION website, questions sent by email, emails expressing interest in a future beta, and voluntary direct cryptocurrency support. AXION Player is in development. The current website does not provide an application download or activate a beta account.
Future application diagnostics and beta participation are outside the current flow. The diagnostics planning note is not a notice of an active collection system and does not authorize collection.
3. Email inquiries and beta interest
The beta-interest form prepares a draft in your mail application. It does not submit the entries to an AXION form server or save them in website storage. You must review and send the message yourself. Opening your mail application may place the draft and its contents with your mail provider, depending on your mail settings.
If you send a message, the founder receives your sender email address, any name shown by your email account, the message and attachments you choose to include, and ordinary email metadata. The prepared beta-interest message includes your selected platforms and website language, plus your name, device description and DAC information if entered. These details are used to answer your question or handle your request to be contacted about beta availability.
Sending a question or beta-interest email does not subscribe you to a newsletter or authorize general marketing emails. It does not confirm admission to a beta. Please avoid sending passwords, wallet recovery phrases, private keys, identity documents or unrelated personal information.
4. Website delivery and technical information
Cloudflare Workers Static Assets on the founder’s Cloudflare Free account is the selected hosting service. The website package serves static files without a custom application Worker, server-side form handler, AXION analytics or application telemetry. Optional Workers observability and external log exports are not part of the intended configuration.
Cloudflare may process IP addresses, traffic routing information and other technical or security information when delivering and protecting the website. Disabling optional application logging does not stop the provider’s necessary infrastructure or security processing. See Cloudflare’s Privacy Policy.
5. Voluntary cryptocurrency support
The website displays public receiving addresses supplied by the founder and identifies their networks. It does not connect to your wallet, initiate a transfer or verify receipt. If you choose to transfer cryptocurrency, your wallet or exchange and the relevant blockchain network process the transaction under their own arrangements.
Public blockchain records can include sending and receiving addresses, amounts, times and transaction identifiers. The founder may see incoming transfers to the displayed receiving addresses. If you email about a transfer, your correspondence may link your email identity to that transaction. The purpose of handling that correspondence is to answer your support-related inquiry.
Deleting an email or an off-chain record controlled by the founder cannot remove a transaction from a public blockchain. Do not include personal information in public transaction notes.
6. Who may receive information
The founder handles correspondence through the approved contact address above, which uses Google Gmail. Your own email provider and Google's email infrastructure handle delivery and storage under their applicable terms and privacy arrangements. Cloudflare is the selected website delivery provider and may handle website-request data. A cryptocurrency transfer is visible to participants in the relevant network and may be processed by a wallet or exchange you choose.
AXION correspondence is handled only in Gmail. The founder maintains no separate contact spreadsheet or separate record linking contributions to names or email addresses. If you include transaction details in an email, they remain part of that correspondence. Provider information is available in Google’s Privacy Policy and Cloudflare’s Privacy Policy.
7. Purposes and legal grounds
The founder uses ordinary inquiry and voluntary-support correspondence to answer the sender and keep the relevant conversation for the retention period stated below. The basis is the legitimate interest in responding to requests addressed to the project, limited to what is reasonably needed for that conversation and subject to the sender’s rights. These messages are not used for unrelated marketing.
Beta-availability contact is based on your voluntary, purpose-specific request and consent to receive messages about the beta platforms you selected. You can withdraw that consent or ask for contact to stop by emailing ssaudiodesign@gmail.com. Sending an ordinary question does not give consent to beta messages, a newsletter or application telemetry.
Website delivery and necessary security processing serve the legitimate interest in making the informational website available and protecting it. This covers necessary technical processing, not optional audience analytics or behavioural profiling. The founder’s purposes and grounds described here do not replace the terms governing Google’s and Cloudflare’s own processing.
8. How long information is kept
Email inquiries and beta-interest correspondence: retained for no more than 12 months after the last contact in the relevant correspondence. The founder reviews correspondence monthly to ensure deletion within this maximum period. You may request earlier deletion using the privacy contact below, subject to applicable legal requirements.
Website technical data: AXION does not maintain a separate application request-log database or export website request logs under the intended deployment configuration. Cloudflare handles provider-controlled infrastructure and security information under its applicable terms and privacy policy. The founder’s 12-month correspondence rule does not determine Cloudflare’s retention of that information.
Support-related correspondence: follows the same email retention rule. No separate contact or contribution-to-identity table is maintained. Public blockchain records are outside the founder’s deletion control.
The retention rule concerns correspondence under the founder’s control. Deletion does not remove copies held by senders or guarantee immediate deletion of all provider-held or backup copies. No automatic deletion system is claimed.
9. Your privacy requests
Contact ssaudiodesign@gmail.com to ask what information is held about you, why it is used, where it came from, who receives it, or to request access, correction or deletion. You may also ask the founder to stop contacting you about beta availability. Use only the information reasonably needed to identify the relevant correspondence; do not send identity documents unless a suitable verification process is specifically arranged.
Applicable Ukrainian law provides rights concerning access to personal data, objections to processing, correction or deletion where legally required, withdrawal of consent where used, protection against unlawful processing, and complaints to the Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights or a court. The scope and handling of a request depend on the relevant right and lawful retention requirements. Other rights may apply depending on the circumstances and applicable law.
Information about the Ukrainian supervisory authority is available at ombudsman.gov.ua.
10. International handling and future changes
AXION is operated from Ukraine. Correspondence is handled through Google Gmail, and Cloudflare is the selected website delivery service. These providers use international infrastructure, so information may be handled outside Ukraine. The website does not promise storage only in Ukraine or the European Union.
Google’s handling of email is described in its Privacy Policy and applicable service terms. Cloudflare’s handling is described in its Privacy Policy and applicable service and data-processing terms. The founder does not maintain a separate contact spreadsheet or a separate record linking contributions to names or email addresses. Requests about information under the founder’s control can be sent to ssaudiodesign@gmail.com.
Any future newsletter, server-side signup, analytics or application diagnostics requires a separate operational decision and a notice matching that processing before it starts.
1. About AXION
AXION is personally operated from Ukraine by Stefan Zherliakov, Founder of AXION. “AXION Support” and “Founder of AXION” are public-facing labels. The founder personally receives voluntary support for the project.
AXION Player is in active development, Android first. No public release or release date has been announced. Desktop and iOS screens are future design concepts. The website's Signal Explorer is an illustration, not a measurement of your device or evidence of a qualified output path.
Audio-format support and output compatibility depend on the particular software build, device, operating system, DAC, connection and output mode. Bit-perfect playback and Native DSD require a compatible, verified path. Illustrations and design concepts do not promise a release, a particular feature or universal compatibility.
3. Questions and beta interest
The contact flow opens an email draft that you review and send yourself. Joining the beta interest list and participating in a future beta are free of charge and do not require a contribution. An expression of beta interest is a request for contact about availability, not confirmed enrollment, access to software, a purchase or a newsletter subscription. Any future test must have notices and participation conditions appropriate to the actual build and test before participation begins.
This page does not impose beta confidentiality, a feedback licence or application-diagnostics requirements on website visitors or people who email a question.
4. Voluntary support
Support is voluntary and is received personally by the founder for the AXION project. It does not purchase a product or service, reserve a licence, guarantee beta access, confer ownership or investment rights, or promise a delivery date or financial return. No representation is made that a contribution is a charitable or tax-deductible donation.
The website displays receiving addresses for direct cryptocurrency support. It does not connect a wallet, initiate a transfer, take custody of your wallet or automatically confirm receipt. Card, Ko-fi and PayPal payments are not connected.
Before sending, check the asset, exact blockchain network and receiving address in your own wallet or exchange. A transfer uses real funds. Network or exchange fees may apply. Cryptocurrency transfers are generally irreversible, and a transfer on the wrong network or to the wrong address may be unrecoverable.
For a question about a contribution, email ssaudiodesign@gmail.com. This page does not promise that a transfer can be reversed or that a refund is available. It does not exclude any rights or remedies that applicable law makes mandatory.
5. Personal information
The Privacy notice describes email handling, website delivery metadata and public blockchain records. Application diagnostics are not activated by viewing this website or expressing interest in a beta.
6. Future beta participation
Any future beta conditions will describe the actual build and test before participation begins. This page does not select exclusive jurisdiction, waive statutory rights or introduce an “accept by continuing to browse” mechanism.
FUTURE PLANNING NOTE — NOT AN ACTIVE DIAGNOSTICS POLICY. The current website and email-interest flow do not collect AXION application diagnostics. This planning note does not mean that a beta, telemetry endpoint, provider or approved collection schema exists.
1. Current scope
The website is informational. Its beta-interest form prepares an email for you to send. That email is not consent to application telemetry. Website-hosting technical metadata and messages you send are separate matters described in the Privacy notice.
2. Future beta decisions
If a future beta needs diagnostics, the actual build, data fields, purposes, providers, legal grounds, retention and user choices must be decided and documented before that processing starts. Required and optional processing must be distinguished. Any consent or other legal requirement must be implemented in the actual flow; a website planning note is not a substitute.
No diagnostic or infrastructure retention period is approved here. No feedback licence, confidentiality condition or required-diagnostics condition is created by this note.
3. Machine-readable status
The accompanying telemetry status file has an empty approved-field list and is marked non-operative. It describes the status of this website draft, not a technical audit of any separate AXION application build.
4. Questions
Contact ssaudiodesign@gmail.com for questions about future testing. Do not send full music libraries, private keys, passwords or unrelated personal information.

Music should be the reason to open a player. Understanding the playback path should not require leaving it.
AXION starts with those two ideas: a focused listening experience and a clearer view of what happens between the file and the output. The interface should make room for both, without turning every listening session into a technical exercise.
The Android player is in active development. The wider AXION ecosystem is a direction we are building toward, not a collection of finished products. This journal will keep those differences visible.
We will show concepts as concepts, test results with their scope, and release notes when there is a release to describe.
A source and an output can have the same sample rate while their sample values differ. Changing the volume or applying digital processing does not necessarily change the displayed rate.
That is why the Signal Explorer separates format, processing, transport and integrity. Select the processed PCM example: the rate stays the same, but the state is no longer bit-perfect.
This is a teaching illustration, not a hardware measurement or a test performed by your browser. An actual compatibility claim needs evidence for the device, mode and build being discussed.
The player is still in a laboratory phase. Diagnostic screens help development, while concept screens show the intended direction of the interface. Neither should be mistaken for a finished consumer release.
The next public step is a beta program. Testing across different phones and external DACs will help identify compatibility and stability issues before release.
The beta-interest form prepares an email draft for the visitor to review and send. It does not submit to an AXION form server or save entries in website storage. A mail provider may save the draft. Correspondence is handled only in Gmail and retained for no more than 12 months after the last contact. There is no newsletter signup or application-diagnostics collection in this website flow.
