Privacy Policy

Stage Left is operated by Fully Thrifted LLC (“Stage Left,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a limited liability company. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Stage Left app or website, you agree to the practices described here.

1. The Opening Act: What We Collect

When you join the Stage Left lineup, we collect a few things. Don't worry — we're not backstage rummaging through your stuff.

• Your setlist of basics: Email, username, display name, and a password (encrypted, because we're not animals)
• Your greatest hits: Show logs, ratings, reviews, vibes, and photos you choose to share
• Profile flair: Bio, avatar, social links, and whether you're an artist yourself (all optional, no pressure)
• The encore data: General usage analytics so we can make the app better. We track which pages you visit, not which pages you wish you hadn't.

2. The Main Event: How We Use It

We use your data to make Stage Left work. That's it. We're not selling your show history to Big Ticketmaster.

• Keep the show running (the app, not a literal show)
• Show your profile and show diary to other users (that's kind of the whole point)
• Generate your stats, charts, maps, and skill trees (the fun stuff)
• Power the social features — following, feeds, discovery
• Send you important emails like password resets (not “we miss you!” spam)

3. The VIP Section vs. General Admission

Some things are public, some things are private. Like a good venue, we have sections.

• GA (Public): Username, display name, avatar, bio, show logs (unless you go private), ratings, reviews, and vibes
• VIP (Private): Email, tags, personal notes, who you went with, ticket prices, and anything you mark as private. This stays backstage.

4. The Sound System: Security

Your data lives in Supabase (hosted on AWS) with proper encryption. Passwords are hashed — we couldn't read them even if we wanted to. Photos get compressed before storage because nobody needs a 47MB show photo. All connections use HTTPS because we're not performing in a garage (well, not anymore).

5. The Supporting Acts: Third-Party Services

We bring a few friends on tour with us:

• Supabase: Our database, auth, and storage. They're the roadies holding everything together.
• Vercel: Hosting. They keep the lights on.
• MusicBrainz: Artist data. Public API, we don't share your info with them.

None of these services get your personal data for their own use. They're session musicians, not co-writers.

6. Your Rider: Your Rights

Like any good performer, you get a rider. Here are your demands:

• Access: See all your data anytime through your profile
• Edit: Change anything, anytime. Your data, your remix.
• Delete: Walk off stage. Delete your account and everything goes with it.
• Export: Take your show data with you. No hard feelings.
• Opt out: Unsubscribe from anything non-essential. We won't be the band that doesn't leave the stage.

7. Cookies (The Boring Kind)

We use exactly one type of cookie: the “keep you logged in” kind. No tracking cookies. No advertising cookies. No cookies that follow you around the internet like a persistent fan at a meet-and-greet.

8. Age Check (No Wristband Required)

Stage Left is for users 13 and older. We don't knowingly collect data from anyone under 13. If your kid somehow signed up and rated a Wiggles show 5 stars, let us know and we'll handle it.

9. Setlist Changes

We might update this policy sometimes. Like a setlist, it can change night to night. If anything major changes, we'll update the date at the top. We won't pull a “surprise new album drop” on you without warning.

10. Encore: Contact Us

Got questions? Concerns? Privacy requests (access, correction, deletion)? Reach out at hello@stageleft.app. The data controller is Fully Thrifted LLC.

Thanks for reading the whole thing. Seriously. You're the kind of person who stays for the encore.
