Privacy policy
Venuity is a public social network, so most of what you post is meant to be seen. This page explains what we collect, what's public, who helps us run the site, and how to get your data or delete it.
What we collect
- Account details: your email address, username, display name, and anything you add to your profile, like a bio or photo.
- What you post and do: calls, takes, comments, likes, votes, follows, and the ranks and grades that come from them.
- Payments: if you become a paid member, Stripe processes your payment. We receive your subscription status and a customer ID, never your full card number.
- Usage and device data: the days you visit (to power streaks and notifications), plus standard server logs such as IP address, browser and pages requested, used for security and fixing problems. We use Vercel Web Analytics, which measures page views without cookies or cross-site tracking.
What's public
Your username, display name, profile, calls, takes, comments, votes on calls, follows, grades, ranks and tiers are public and can appear on leaderboards, profile pages, share images and search engines. Your email address is never shown publicly.
How we use it
- To run Venuity: sign you in, show your feed, grade calls, calculate ranks and send notifications.
- To send emails you need, such as sign-in links and account or billing messages.
- To keep the site safe: prevent spam, abuse and manipulation of rankings.
- To understand what's working and improve the product.
We don't sell your personal information, and we don't use it for third-party advertising.
Who helps us run Venuity
We share data only with service providers that process it for us: Supabase (database and sign-in), Vercel (hosting and analytics), Stripe (payments), and our email delivery provider. Market prices come from third-party data providers; we don't send them your personal information. These providers may store and process data outside Canada, including in the United States, where it may be accessible to authorities under local law. We may also disclose information if the law requires it.
Cookies
We use a small number of essential cookies to keep you signed in and protect against abuse. We don't use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
How long we keep it
We keep your account information while your account is open. Graded calls are part of the public record while your account exists. When you delete your account, we delete or anonymize your personal information within 30 days, except what we must keep for legal, tax or fraud-prevention reasons.
Your choices and rights
You can edit your profile anytime. You can ask us for a copy of your personal information, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete your account by emailing support@venuity.ai from the address you signed up with. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws such as Canada's PIPEDA, British Columbia's PIPA, the GDPR or US state privacy laws, and you can complain to your privacy regulator.
Age
Venuity is for adults. We don't knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you think someone under 18 has an account, let us know and we'll remove it.
Changes
If we change this policy in a significant way, we'll tell you on the site or by email before the change takes effect.
