Privacy Policy

1. Overview

This Privacy Policy explains how audiophila. collects, uses, and shares information when you use the Service. By using audiophila., you agree to this policy and our Terms of Service.

2. Information We Collect

• Account details like your email address and authentication data.
• Profile information you choose to share, such as a username, bio, and avatar.
• Content you upload or create, including gear entries, reviews, and photos.
• Usage data such as pages viewed and actions taken to improve the Service.
• Technical data like device type, browser, and IP address.

3. How We Use Information

• Operate and maintain the Service and your account.
• Personalize your experience and show your public profile.
• Communicate about updates, security, and support.
• Monitor and improve performance, reliability, and features.

4. Sharing and Disclosure

Your public profile and content are visible to other users and visitors. We may share information with service providers who help us operate the Service (such as hosting and analytics). We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect our users.

5. Cookies and Analytics

We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, understand usage, and improve the Service. You can control cookies through your browser settings, but some features may not work properly without them.

6. Location

To sort events near you by default, we use an approximate location derived from your connection (your IP address). We do not store this against your account.

You can optionally save a home city on your profile. Saving one is optional, both now and after you accept this policy, and you can use the site fully without it.

If you choose a location on the events page, we remember it in a cookie named events_loc, which is kept for one year.

A toggle controls whether your city is shown on your profile and in event attendee lists. It is off by default.

To remove a saved location, use the Remove button on your profile edit page. A saved location is also deleted when you delete your account.

When you set a location, coordinates rounded to roughly one kilometre appear in the page address and in calendar subscription links you copy. Anyone you share those links with can see them.

7. Data Retention

We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. You can request deletion of your account and associated data, subject to legal and operational requirements.

8. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information, but no system is completely secure. Please use the Service responsibly and protect your account details.

9. Your Choices

You can update your profile information, control what you share publicly, and delete content through your account settings. For additional requests, contact us directly.
