Privacy Policy

Last updated 24 May 2026

Who we are

Radar (“we”, “us”) is operated for joinradar.co.uk. For privacy questions contact privacy@joinradar.co.uk.

What we collect

Account: email address and profile information (display name, username, avatar, favourite artists). Diary & content: gigs you log (artist, venue, date, notes, ratings, photos, setlists, crew/tags), comments, and festival picks. Social: friend connections, gig tag invites, blocks/mutes, and activity visible to friends per your settings. Location: venue/city text you enter and coordinates derived from venues for map features (not continuous GPS tracking). Device: push notification tokens when you enable notifications. Optional integrations: if you connect Spotify we receive your top artists (and playlist scope if you reconnect for setlist playlists). Purchases are processed by Apple/Google via RevenueCat—we receive subscription status, not card details.

Why we use it

We process data to provide the service (account, diary, search, map, Wrapped), enable social features you use, send notifications you opt into, operate Radar Pro billing, improve reliability, and comply with law. Lawful bases (UK GDPR): contract (core app features), consent (push notifications, Spotify connect where applicable), and legitimate interests (security, abuse prevention, aggregated service improvement).

Who we share with

Infrastructure: Supabase (database, auth, storage), Expo (push delivery), and our VPS hosting in the EU/EEA where applicable. Payments: Apple App Store / Google Play and RevenueCat for subscription status. Optional: Spotify when you connect; event data providers (Ticketmaster, Setlist.fm, Skiddle, Eventbrite) when you search for shows—queries go through our server, not your API keys. We do not sell your personal data.

Retention

We keep your data while your account is active. When you delete your account we remove your auth profile and associated diary/social data subject to backup retention (typically up to 30 days).

Your rights

You may access, correct, export, or delete your data. Delete your account in Settings → Delete account, or email privacy@joinradar.co.uk. You may complain to the ICO (ico.org.uk) if unresolved.

Children

Radar is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13.

Changes

We will update this policy when practices change. Material changes will be noted in-app or on this page.
