Privacy policy
The short version
We collect as little as possible. The site does not use advertising or tracking cookies. Some services we rely on, such as the spam check, may store small technical data in your browser so they can work.
What we collect
- Site analytics: we use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which does not use cookies and does not track individual visitors across sites.
- Newsletter: if you subscribe, your email address is handled by our newsletter provider, Buttondown, to send the Friday list. You can unsubscribe in any email.
- Visitor votes: votes are anonymous. To prevent duplicates we store a salted, one-way hash derived from your connection details, never the raw IP address. The salt is rotated.
- Spam protection: forms and votes may use Cloudflare Turnstile to tell people from bots.
Children
Voting and the newsletter are for people 13 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13.
Third-party links
Links to venues, ticket sellers and review sites lead to services with their own privacy practices.
