What we store, and what we don't.

Browsing

You can use every listing, filter and map on this site without an account and without being tracked across other sites. There are no advertising or analytics trackers.

Location

"Near me" asks your browser for coordinates. They are kept in your browser's session storage and sent to this site only as search parameters on the request that finds nearby events. They are not stored against you, and they are cleared when you close the tab.

Email alerts

If you sign up for weekend alerts we store your email address, the cities and categories you chose, and an optional radius. Nothing is sent until you confirm the address, every message carries an unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing stops all mail immediately. We do not share the list with anyone.

Submitting an event

Submitted events include a contact email so we can ask a question if a detail is unclear. The email is not published with the listing.

Business accounts

If you sign in to manage a business, we store your email address, when you signed in, the listings you claim or add and every change you make to them, with what it replaced. Sign-in links are single-use, expire after thirty minutes, and only a fingerprint of each is kept. We email you only about your sign-in and your listings - never marketing.

The factual details of a listing - name, address, phone, website, hours - are published as open data under the ODbL, as the OpenStreetMap details they sit beside are. What you write about your business is shown on this site and is not given to anyone else. A public email address appears on the page only if you add one.

If a listing names you personally and you would rather it did not, get in touch and we will remove it, whether or not you have an account.

Cookies

A session cookie is set when you use a form or sign in to a business account, so the form can be protected against cross-site request forgery and you stay signed in. That is the only cookie the server sets.

Event data

Event listings are collected from public calendars — see data sources. If you are an organiser and want a listing removed, contact the calendar that published it, or get in touch and we will drop it.
