Searching through Instagram for Cork's next rave? I built RaveRadar to fix that! This is my effort to centralise all upcoming Raves, Festivals, and EDM events in one place sorted by upcoming. No more endless Instagram scrolling to find the date, time or price. Tell your friends?

Privacy Policy

Introduction

RaveRadar ("us", "we", or "our") operates the RaveRadar website (the "Service"). This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data when you use our Service and the choices you have associated with that data.

This is a community-focused project, and we are committed to protecting your privacy. We only collect the minimum information necessary to operate and improve the Service.

Types of Data Collected

Usage Data (Server Logs)

Like most websites, our server automatically collects information that your browser sends whenever you visit our Service ("Usage Data"). This is standard practice for monitoring the health and security of the website.

This Usage Data may include information such as your computer's Internet Protocol address (IP address), browser type, browser version, the pages of our Service that you visit, the time and date of your visit, and the time spent on those pages. This data is generally anonymous and is not used to personally identify you.

Functional Data (Local Storage)

We use your browser's "Local Storage" technology to hold certain information to improve your experience on our site. Specifically, we store a value to remember your choice about the welcome banner so we don't show it to you again on your next visit. This information is stored only in your browser and is not transmitted to our servers.

Admin Session Data (Cookies)

If you are the administrator and log in to the admin panel, our Service uses a secure, functional "session cookie" to keep you logged in as you navigate the admin pages. This cookie is essential for the security and operation of the admin panel and is not used for tracking purposes on the public-facing site.

Use of Data

RaveRadar uses the collected Usage Data for the following purposes:

  • To provide and maintain the Service
  • To monitor the usage of the Service for performance and security
  • To detect, prevent, and address technical issues

Data Storage and Transfer

Your information may be stored and processed on servers located where our hosting provider (e.g., Render) operates. By using the Service, you consent to this. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely.

Disclosure of Data

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information to outside parties. We may disclose Usage Data in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, to protect the security of the Service, or to protect against legal liability.

Links to Other Sites

Our Service contains links to other sites that are not operated by us (e.g., ticket-selling websites). If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party's site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.

Children's Privacy

Our Service does not address anyone under the age of 18 ("Children"). We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 18.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
