Privacy Policy

Effective date: 5/7/26 Last updated: 9/23/26

CT Concert Center ("CTCC," "we," "our," or "us") is an iOS app that helps you discover live music events in Connecticut. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. We've tried to write it in plain language. If anything is unclear, please email us at [email protected]. This policy also covers our website, ctconcertcenterapp.com.

1. The short version

CT Concert Center is designed to work without an account. You don't sign in, give us your name, give us your email, or give us your phone number. We don't sell or share your information for advertising. The data we do collect is the minimum needed to deliver the features you use (push notifications, subscriptions, and event submissions), plus anonymous usage counts that help us improve the app.

If you only read one section, read this one.

2. Information we collect

Information you provide

• Event submissions. If you tap "Submit an Event" and fill out the form, we receive the event details you typed (title, date, venue, description, link, and so on). We do not require or collect your name, email, or any other identifying information when you submit.
• In-app purchases. When you purchase Encore, the transaction is processed entirely by Apple. We never see your payment details, name, or billing address. We do receive an anonymous receipt confirming the purchase via our payment provider, RevenueCat (see §6).

Information collected automatically

• Anonymous device identifier. When you first open the app, we generate a random anonymous install ID (a UUID) on your device. This ID has no link to your name, email, Apple ID, or any other personal identifier. It's used to associate notification preferences with your device and to recognize the same device across launches.
• Push notification token. If you enable push notifications, Apple's Push Notification Service issues an opaque token that lets us deliver pushes to your device. We store this token alongside the anonymous install ID described above. The token is not personal information by itself and cannot be used to identify you outside of our notification system.
• Notification preferences. The genres, cities, and venues you've selected for notifications, plus the master on/off toggle. Stored in our database so we can deliver the right pushes to your device.
• Anonymous purchase identifier. Our payment provider, RevenueCat, generates an anonymous app user ID stored on your device, used to track whether you've purchased Encore. This ID is not linked to your real identity.
• Usage data. The app records anonymous events from the welcome tour and the Encore screen, such as which tour page was viewed, when Skip was tapped, and when a purchase or free trial starts or finishes. Each event includes the app version, iOS version, device type, and the anonymous purchase identifier described above. It never includes your name, email, or advertising identifier. We store these events in our own database and use them only to improve the app. We don't sell them, share them for advertising, or use them to track you across other apps or websites.

Information collected on our website

• Visit counts. Our website counts visits, pages viewed, and App Store button taps, along with the device type, the site or link that sent you, and the state or country a visit comes from. It uses a random visit ID stored in your browser instead of cookies.
