Privacy Policy
Effective date: October 8, 2025
BarChord respects your privacy. We collect only what we need to operate
the app and website and we never sell your data.
Information We Collect
- Account data (e.g., email and password) to let you sign in.
- Usage data (basic logs/analytics) to keep the service reliable.
- Profile Picture (Artists only) to display your photo on your profile.
- Notifications: if you enable push, we store a device token.
- Owner verification uploads (utility bill/license) only when an owner
submits a venue claim. These files are used solely to verify ownership and are deleted after
the request is approved/rejected.
- Location (if you grant permission) to show nearby venues/events in the app.
How We Use Information
- Provide and improve core features (accounts, events, artists, venues).
- Send notifications you opt into.
- Verify venue ownership for claims.
Sharing
We do not sell your data. We use trusted service providers (cloud hosting,
storage, email/push delivery, maps) who process data on our behalf to run BarChord.
Data Retention
Account data is kept while your account remains active. Owner verification uploads are
deleted once reviewed.
Your Choices
- You can request deletion of your account and associated data.
- You can disable notifications or location in your device settings.
Changes
We may update this policy. We’ll change the “Effective date” above when we do.
