Privacy

You can use all of AERA without an account and without telling us anything about yourself. Creating an account is optional. That’s the only time we ask you for personal information.

If you create an account, we store your email address, whatever display name and picture you choose, and the teachers and venues you follow. To delete your account, write to us. We’ll close it and remove your name, picture and public profile. If you use “near me”, your coordinates are sent with that one request and are never stored.

If you sign in with Google, Google gives us your email address, name and picture. Your name and picture become your starting profile. We ask Google for nothing else, never access anything else in your account, and never pass this information on.

After you close your account, we keep the email address on the closed record and the follows associated with it, although they are no longer visible to anyone. Your sign-in also remains with Supabase until you ask us to delete that too.

We store teacher names as they appear on a venue’s public schedule, and nothing else about them: no photos, bios or contact details.

Data and backups are hosted in the EU (Frankfurt). We use analytics to improve AERA, with no advertising and no third-party tracking.
