MicStage (“we,” “us”) operates an online platform that helps open mic venues and artists coordinate schedules and bookings. This policy explains what information we handle and how we use it.
Information we collect
- Account information. When you register or log in, we collect data you provide—such as email address, password (stored securely), and profile details you choose to add (for example, stage name for artists or venue and location information for venues).
- Booking and scheduling data. We store information needed to run the service: open mic schedules, slot reservations, performer names or labels you submit for a booking, optional notes, and related timestamps. Some performer or venue information may appear on public pages you or the venue make available.
- Technical data. Like most sites, our servers and partners may receive standard technical information (such as IP address, browser type, and approximate region) when you use MicStage.
How we use your information
- To create and maintain your account and to authenticate you.
- To display schedules, process bookings, and show information you or venues choose to make public.
- To send service-related emails (for example, account verification, password resets, and important notices).
- To improve reliability, security, and product experience, including through aggregated analytics.
- To comply with law or protect rights and safety where required.
Email communications
We use your email for account and booking-related messages. We do not sell your email address. If we send product updates or marketing, we will do so in line with applicable law and your choices where required.
Analytics
We may use privacy-conscious analytics (for example, page views and product events) to understand how MicStage is used. You can disable optional client analytics where we provide an environment flag; server-side error reporting may still run to keep the service stable. We do not use analytics to sell personal data.
Sharing
We use trusted infrastructure providers (such as hosting, database, and email delivery) to operate MicStage. They process data only as needed to provide those services. We do not sell your personal information.
Retention
We keep information as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service, comply with law, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. You may request deletion or correction of your account data by contacting us (see below), subject to legal and operational limits.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.
Children
MicStage is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.
Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the updated version on this page and adjust the “Last updated” date above.
