Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 17, 2026

1. Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information when you use CMNE:

• Account information: your display name, email address, and zip code when you create an account.
• Location data: your approximate location (with your permission) to show nearby events on the map. We do not store your precise location on our servers.
• Event data: events you post, including title, description, address, date/time, photos, and ticket pricing.
• Activity data: RSVPs, ticket purchases, event comments, reviews, and saved events.
• Device data: a push notification token (with your permission) to send you alerts about events you follow.
• Calendar data: if you choose to save an event to your calendar, we request calendar access only to create that entry. We do not read or store your calendar data.
• Payment data: ticket payments are processed by Stripe. We do not store your credit card number or payment details — Stripe handles all payment data under their own privacy policy.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Display events near your location on the map and browse screen
• Manage your RSVPs, ticket purchases, and event hosting
• Send push notifications about new RSVPs, followers, and events (only with your permission)
• Enable comments, reviews, and community features
• Improve app performance and fix bugs
• Prevent fraud and enforce our Terms of Service

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We do not use your data for advertising purposes.

3. How We Share Your Information

We share limited information in the following ways:

• Public profile: your display name is visible to other users when you host events, post comments, or receive reviews.
• Event hosts: if you RSVP or purchase a ticket to an event, the host can see your display name on their attendee list.
• Service providers: we use Supabase (database and authentication), Stripe (payments), and Expo (push notifications). Each is bound by their own privacy policies and data processing agreements.
• Legal requirements: we may disclose information if required by law or to protect the safety of our users.

4. Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored on Supabase infrastructure with row-level security policies enforced at the database level, ensuring users can only access data they are authorized to see. All data is transmitted over HTTPS.

While we implement industry-standard security measures, no system is 100% secure. We encourage you to use a strong, unique password for your account.

5. Your Rights and Choices

• Access: you can view your profile and event history within the app at any time.
• Edit: you can update your display name, bio, and zip code from the Edit Profile screen.
• Delete events: you can delete any event you have hosted from the My Hosted Events screen.
• Push notifications: you can disable push notifications at any time from the app settings or your device settings.
• Account deletion: to delete your account and all associated data, contact us at the email below. We will process your request within 30 days.

6. Children's Privacy

CMNE is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

7. Third-Party Links and Services

Events may include addresses that link to Apple Maps or Google Maps. These services have their own privacy policies that govern their use of your data once you leave CMNE.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.

9. California Privacy Rights (CCPA)

If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect, request deletion of your data, and opt out of the sale of your personal information. We do not sell personal information. To exercise your rights, contact us using the information below.
