• Personal Information: Name, email, profile details (when creating an account). • Location Data: Precise geolocation (when the App is open or in background for check-in detection, only for events marked "Attending" and during event hours, with your permission). Coarse location for nearby events. • Usage Data: Events viewed, attended/marked, check-ins, reviews, XP points, device ID, IP address, device type, OS, and analytics on App usage. • Automatically Collected: Crash logs, diagnostics via third-party tools (e.g., Firebase).

We do not sell your personal data. We may share with: • Service providers (e.g., cloud hosting, analytics like Firebase, push notifications). • In business transfers or legal requirements. Aggregated/anonymized data for trends (e.g., popular events).

We use precise location only for check-in verification (when you've marked "Attending") and briefly in background during event times. You control permissions in device settings. We do not track location constantly.

We use reasonable measures (e.g., encryption) to protect your data, but no system is 100% secure.

Depending on your location (e.g., CCPA, GDPR), you may request access, correction, deletion, or opt-out of certain processing. Contact us to exercise rights.
