Privacy

CurtainChatter shows what is on stage across Germany, Austria and Switzerland. This page explains what we do with data about you, and what you can ask of us.

Who is responsible

Birk Skyum, Sallenbachstrasse 11, 8055 Zurich, Switzerland. For anything about your data, write to [email protected].

Reading without an account

You can read the calendar, performances, productions and venues without an account. We set no cookies for visitors who are not signed in, and we use no analytics or advertising trackers. When you load a page, your IP address and browser details reach our servers and our network provider, because that is how a page gets to you; we use them only to deliver the site and keep it secure.

The map on the Near you page loads its background map from CARTO (carto.com), which therefore receives your IP address when you open it.

If you have an account

We store your email address and name, your password in hashed form or your passkeys, and your sign-in sessions with the IP address and device they came from, so you can review and end them on your account page. We store the dates you save, what you follow and the reviews you write. Your saved dates and follows are private. Reviews you publish can be read by other members.

Sign-in and verification codes are sent by email through Resend. If you sign in with Google, Google tells us your name and email address.

The mobile app uses your approximate location only if you allow it, to find what is on nearby. We do not store it with your account.

People in the catalog

We publish the names and roles of artists and creative teams as the venues announce them. If you are listed and want something corrected or removed, write to us.

Where your data is kept

On servers in Germany run by Hetzner. Cloudflare carries the traffic between you and those servers. We keep account data until you delete your account, which you can do at any time on your account page.

Your rights

You can ask what we hold about you, have it corrected or deleted, and object to how we use it. You can also complain to a data protection authority: in Switzerland the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner, in the EU the authority where you live.
