What we keep, and why.
Short, because there isn't much. Last changed .
The old waiting list
This site used to take an email address for a waiting list. It no longer does, because the app is open. If you left an address on that list, we kept the address and which list you joined, people who go out or businesses, and nothing else. We do not sell it, share it, or add it to anything else, and we delete it when you ask.
This site
This site sets no cookies and runs no analytics. There is nothing to consent to, which is why there is no banner. Fonts are served from this site. No third party sees a request.
The app
The app asks for a first name and an email before it shows anything. When you check in, your phone shares its location once so we can confirm you are within about a block of the place. We keep the check-in, not the coordinates. Signing in uses your email and a link, with no password. The neighborhood board shows the name you choose to give, or nothing.
Listings
Places on the map come from OpenStreetMap, which is public and openly licensed, filtered and checked by hand. If your business is listed and you would rather it wasn't, write to us and it comes off. No argument.
Removal
Reply to any email we send, or write to hello@hottip.club, and we delete your address and anything tied to it. Same for a check-in history or a listing.
