Privacy
Last updated November 12, 2026
Headliner lists concerts, comedy and other live shows. You can use it without an account. If you make one, we keep only what the features you turn on need. We don’t sell your information, show ads, or share it with anyone for their marketing.
When you browse
- Usage counts. We record which pages and features get used (for example “a show page was opened”) with a random id that lasts only while your tab is open. With each visit we also note your approximate city, state and country (worked out by our host from your connection), the site or campaign link that sent you, your device type, browser, screen size and language, and a visitor code that changes every day so we can count visitors without following anyone from day to day. We don’t store your IP address or use tracking cookies. We also use Vercel Web Analytics, which counts visits, referring sites, countries and device types without cookies.
- Do Not Track. If your browser sends Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control, we record none of this.
- Location. If you allow it, your browser’s location is used on your device to open the nearest city. It isn’t sent to us or stored. The city you pick is remembered in your browser.
- Music players. “Listen” buttons play an artist on Spotify or YouTube. Nothing from those services loads until you tap the button; after that, Spotify’s or Google’s own privacy policy applies to the player. YouTube players use Google’s privacy-enhanced mode.
If you make an account
- Your email address, to sign you in. If you sign in with Google, Google also shares your name and profile picture.
- What you save: shows, favorite venues, artists you follow, your home city and the kinds of shows you like.
- Profile details, only if you add them: your first and last name, a mobile number and a mailing address. We mail you (for example free tickets or offers) only if you tick “Send me mail at this address,” and we text you only if you separately turn on text alerts. None of it is shown to venues or other people.
- Alerts, if you turn them on: your phone number (for texts), a record that you agreed to receive texts, and a log of which alerts we sent so you don’t get the same one twice.
If you claim a venue
Your name, email address and role at the venue, so we can confirm you work there.
How we use it
- To sign you in and keep you signed in.
- To show your saved shows, venues and artists on any device.
- To send the alerts you turned on, and nothing else. We don’t send marketing email.
- To send mail to your address, only if you opted in, and to hold tickets in your name when you win or claim them.
- To understand which pages and features are useful, using the usage counts above.
- To keep Headliner working and secure, for example to stop abuse of sign-in links.
Information from Google
If you choose “Continue with Google,” Google shares your name, email address and profile picture with Headliner. We ask for nothing else: not your contacts, calendar, Gmail or files.
- Use: only to create your Headliner account, sign you in, and show your name on My Headliner.
- Storage: kept with your account in our database (Supabase) until you delete your account.
- Sharing: we don’t sell it, use it for advertising, or share it with anyone except the service providers listed below that run Headliner for us.
- Removal: deleting your account removes it. You can also cut off Headliner’s access any time at myaccount.google.com → Security → Your connections to third-party apps & services.
Headliner’s use of information received from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
How long we keep it, and how we protect it
- Account information is kept until you delete your account, then removed.
- Usage counts don’t identify you and are kept as long as they’re useful.
- Everything travels over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Each account’s saved items can be read only by that signed-in account.
Who helps us run Headliner
These companies handle your information only to provide their service to us:
- Supabase: database and sign-in
- Vercel: hosting and visit counts
- Resend: sign-in and alert emails
- Twilio: alert texts
- Google: only if you choose “Continue with Google”
Ticket links take you to other sites, such as Ticketmaster or the venue’s own page. Their privacy policies apply there.
Your choices
- Turn alerts off any time in My Headliner, use the unsubscribe link in any alert email, or reply STOP to any text.
- Delete your account in My Headliner → Settings. That removes your account, everything you saved, your profile details, your phone number and your alert history.
- Or email jnightengale@headliner.guide and we’ll do it for you.
Children
Headliner isn’t meant for children under 13, and we don’t knowingly keep their information.
Changes
If this policy changes, we’ll update the date above. For a significant change, we’ll email account holders first.
