Kavakare

1. Who We Are

Kavakare is an event discovery app for Vilnius, Lithuania. We cover underground clubs, DJ nights, small venues, and events that the big platforms ignore.

Contact: kavakare.lt@gmail.com

2. What Data We Collect

a) Event submission data — when you submit an event through the app, you voluntarily provide:

• Event title, dates, time, venue, address
• Description, category, price
• Organizer name and Instagram handle
• Event URL and source link
• Contact email address
• Optional event poster image
• Optional note about why the event should be featured

This information is stored in our database and used solely to review and potentially publish your event. Your contact email is used only to follow up on your submission — it is never shown publicly.

b) Anonymous session identifier — the app generates a random UUID and stores it locally on your device. This identifier has no connection to your name, email, or any other personal information. It is used only to remember which events you marked as “going” and is stored in our database linked to attendance records. You can clear it at any time by clearing your browser’s local storage.

3. What We Do Not Collect

• We do not require account registration
• We do not collect your name, phone number, or location
• We do not use advertising SDKs or sell data to third parties
• We do not track your behaviour across other apps or websites

4. Third-Party Services

We use Supabase to store event submissions and anonymous attendance data. Supabase is GDPR-compliant and our data is hosted in the EU.

Event images you upload are stored in Supabase Storage and may be publicly accessible via a signed URL if your event is published.

We use Vercel Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights to measure page views and performance. These services do not use cookies, do not collect personally identifiable information, and are compliant with GDPR. Aggregated, anonymous data only is collected.

We also use Umami Analytics, a privacy-focused analytics tool that does not use cookies and does not collect personal data.

5. Legal Basis (GDPR)

For users in the EU and EEA, we process personal data (contact email from event submissions) on the basis of consent — you provide it voluntarily when submitting an event. The anonymous session identifier is processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in providing basic app functionality without requiring account creation.

6. Data Retention

• Event submissions: retained as long as necessary to review and publish events. Rejected submissions are deleted periodically.
• Published events: contact emails are retained while the event is listed.
• Anonymous session data: retained for as long as the app is in use. Cleared when you uninstall the app.

7. Your Rights

Under GDPR you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Request correction or deletion of your data
• Withdraw consent at any time
• Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at kavakare.lt@gmail.com. We will respond within 30 days.

8. Children

Kavakare is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy occasionally. The date at the bottom of this page will reflect any changes. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
