3. Third-Party Event Data Sources

We display this data to help users discover events. We do not share your personal data with these sources without your knowledge.

4. Information Sharing

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share your information only in the following circumstances:

These services may collect technical data (IP address, device identifiers) according to their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review them.

6. Community Event Submissions

Eventgasm allows registered users to submit events to our platform. When you submit an event:

By submitting an event, you represent that you have the right to share the information provided and that it does not violate any third-party rights.

7. User Tiers & Badges

Eventgasm includes an optional contributor and social tier system:

8. Location Data

Location is central to Eventgasm's core function. Here's exactly how we handle it:

You can deny or revoke location access at any time in your device settings. Without location access, you can still search for events by city name manually.

9. Push Notifications

With your permission, we send push notifications for:

You can manage notification preferences in your device's Settings → Notifications → Eventgasm, or within the app. We use Apple Push Notification service (APNs) to deliver notifications on iOS. Your push token is stored on our servers solely to deliver notifications to your device.

9a. Newsletter Email List

If you sign up for our newsletter using the signup form on eventgasm.com, we collect and store the following data specifically for the purpose of sending you the newsletter:

DataWhy We Collect It
Email addressTo send you the newsletter
City (inferred from your location if you've granted geolocation to Eventgasm, otherwise blank)To personalize the newsletter with events near you
Consent timestamp, IP address, and browser user-agent at the moment of signupProof of affirmative consent, as required by the U.S. CAN-SPAM Act and equivalent laws
Unsubscribe token (an opaque identifier)To let you unsubscribe or erase your data from any newsletter link without requiring you to log in
Delivery log (which newsletter was sent to you, when, and whether it was delivered or bounced)Operational — to avoid sending you the same issue twice, to remove bouncing addresses, and to comply with sender-reputation obligations

We do not collect or store your name, phone number, or any content-preference data as part of newsletter signup.

How to unsubscribe: every newsletter contains a one-click unsubscribe link. Clicking it stops future sends immediately. You may also email us at privacy@eventgasm.app and we will unsubscribe you manually.

How to erase your newsletter data: unsubscribing keeps your email in a suppression list so we don't accidentally re-send to you. If you want your row deleted entirely, use the erasure link in any newsletter footer or email us at privacy@eventgasm.app.

Data sharing: newsletter data is not sold, rented, or shared with third parties for their own marketing. Our email delivery provider (currently Resend) receives your email address for the sole purpose of delivering the newsletter you subscribed to.

Independence from Eventgasm accounts: newsletter subscription is separate from any Eventgasm app account. You may subscribe without creating an account, and deleting your app account does not automatically unsubscribe you — use the unsubscribe link.

How to Delete Your Account & Data

We will process deletion requests within 30 days. Some data may be retained in anonymized form or as required by law.

12. Data Security

13. Children's Privacy
