privacy, in plain english

last updated 6 july 2026

the short version

rogaine exists to find you gigs, not to farm you. we collect the minimum needed to make the app work, we sell nothing to anyone, and you can delete everything in two taps.

what we store (only if you sign in)

account: your Apple or Google sign-in identity (email, name if you share it) and a display name/photo if you set one.
your gigs: events you save or import, and tickets you add — including ticket QR payloads so they render on your phone at the door.
crew: friendships you make, and which gigs you're keen on / going to (visible only to accepted friends; switch it off in your profile).
taste: the vibe tags you pick, so recommendations aren't random.

what never leaves your phone

your location — used on-device to sort gigs by distance and centre the map. never uploaded, never stored by us.
your calendar — rogaine does not read your calendar at all. the optional calendar feed is one-way: we publish your gigs to a private link; nothing comes back.
your photo library — screenshots or PDFs you share are processed on-device to extract event details and ticket QRs.

who we rely on

Supabase hosts our database and sign-in plumbing.
Apple / Google handle authentication; Apple WeatherKit supplies the weather line.
Deezer / Apple Music previews power artist photos and 30-second listens — lookups by artist name only.
Resend sends the one welcome email when you make an account.
PostHog receives the anonymous usage counts described below.

analytics & ads

we said this section would change first and loudly if it ever changed — here it is. rogaine now collects anonymous usage analytics (via PostHog) so we can tell which features earn their keep and whether the gig-import actually works out in the wild. it rides under a random per-install id that is never connected to your account, name or email — we can see "someone imported a gig and had to fix the date", never who. still no ads, no ad SDKs, no data brokers, no selling anything to anyone.

deleting everything

profile → delete account. that removes your account, saved gigs, tickets, friendships and taste data from our servers, and revokes your Sign in with Apple token. gone means gone.

listings, images & artist info

rogaine aggregates publicly available gig information and uses artist photos and 30-second previews from the Deezer and Apple/iTunes APIs. we're independent and unaffiliated with any venue or ticketing outfit. if you're a venue, artist or promoter and want a listing, image or detail changed or removed, email gday@rogaine.app and we'll action it promptly.
