Privacy

Around Town is a free community project. It has no ads and no accounts, and it does not sell or share your information.

What we collect

• Newsletter: your email address, the cities and interests you pick, when you signed up and confirmed, and a one-way hash of your IP address as proof of consent.
• Event submissions: the event details you enter plus your email, used only to contact you about that listing.
• Visits: simple, cookie-free counts of page views. A random ID stored in your browser tells us if you're a returning visitor; it is stored only as a hash and is never connected to your email. We use no third-party trackers.
• Your city choice is saved in a cookie on your device so the homepage remembers you.

Your choices

Every email has an unsubscribe link, and the unsubscribe page lets you delete your information entirely. You can also reply to any Around Town email and ask us to remove you.

Email service

Emails are sent through a transactional email provider that handles delivery only. We never give your address to advertisers or other organizations.

Contact details will be listed here when the permanent domain is set up. This is a beta; this policy will be updated as the project grows.
