Privacy Policy

Asbury Edge ("we," "our," or "the App") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application.

Please read this policy carefully. By using Asbury Edge, you consent to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

Information You Provide

• Account Information: When you create an account, we collect your email address and display name
• Username: A unique username you set once during account setup
• Support Tip Data: Where support checkout is available on iOS, Android, or web and you choose to make a voluntary support tip, we may receive payment metadata from Stripe, such as the selected support tier, amount, payment status, email address, and account identifier. We may use your username in an in-app supporter recognition notification visible to other users. Support tips do not unlock app functionality, content, badges, status, or services.
• Profile Information: Any additional information you choose to add to your profile
• User Preferences: Theme mode, favorite event categories, hidden categories, hidden locations, followed locations, notification preferences, favorite reminder settings, and favorite calendar settings, synced to the server when you are signed in
• Favorites: Events you save to your favorites list
• Push Notification Data: If you opt in to notifications, we store a push token, device/platform details, and the notification preferences needed to send only the alerts you choose
• Profile Images: If you choose to upload or update your avatar, we process the selected image
• Search History: Your recent searches (up to 10 queries), stored locally on your device only and never sent to our servers

Information from Third-Party Services

If you sign in using Google OAuth or Apple Sign-In, we receive:

• Your email address
• Your display name
• Your profile picture URL (if available)

Automatically Collected Information

In production app builds, we collect limited diagnostic data via Sentry to maintain app stability:

• Crash and Error Reports: Error and crash data, including stack traces and device state at the time of the crash
• Device Information: Device type, operating system, app version, and build/update identifiers collected as part of crash and error reports only
• Excluded Production Diagnostics: Production app builds do not enable Sentry performance tracing, profiling, user-interaction tracing, or session replay
• QR Code Scan Metrics: When you scan an Asbury Edge QR code, we may record the QR version, scan time, device/platform category, coarse region, and hashed network/device signals to measure campaign performance and filter duplicate or automated scans. We do not store raw IP addresses or raw user agents for QR scans, and hashed duplicate-detection fields are retained only for a limited operational window.

2. Device Permissions

The App may request the following device permissions:

• Photo Library: Used to select a profile picture for your account avatar.
• Calendar: Used to add your favorite Asbury Edge events to your device calendar. With your permission, the App creates a separate "Asbury Edge Events" calendar and adds, updates, and removes your favorite events there automatically. The App only writes to that calendar and does not read the events in your other calendars. Calendar event identifiers created by the App stay on your device, and we do not transmit your calendar data.
• Contacts: Used only when you choose calendar-editing features that can display local contact names. Contact data is not transmitted to our servers.
• Notifications: Used only when you opt in to event, favorite reminder, location-follow, or app-update notifications. You can change notification settings in the App.

All permissions are optional. The App will request access only when you initiate the relevant feature.

The event-flyer submission workflow is currently disabled in this app release.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, maintain, and improve the App
• Create and manage your account
• Store and sync your favorite events, followed locations, hidden locations, notification preferences, favorite reminder settings, favorite calendar settings, and other preferences across devices
• Display supporter recognition notifications after completed support tips, which may include the supporter's username and do not grant a badge, status, rank, feature, or service
• Send you optional notifications about followed locations, favorite event reminders, app updates, and important service changes with your consent
• Respond to your inquiries and support requests
• Improve app stability through crash and error reporting via Sentry
• Measure first-party QR code campaign performance and route scanned QR codes to the correct app download page
• Detect and prevent fraud or abuse

4. Tracking and Advertising

Asbury Edge does not engage in any tracking or advertising practices:

• We do not display advertisements
• We do not track you across other apps or websites
• We do not access the iOS Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) or Android Advertising ID (GAID)
• We do not use advertising analytics SDKs or collect cross-app usage analytics
• We only use QR code scan metrics for first-party campaign measurement and app-download routing
• We do not share your data with data brokers or advertising networks

This aligns with our iOS Privacy Manifest declaration of NSPrivacyTracking: false.

5. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services that may collect and process your data:

These third-party services have their own privacy policies governing how they handle your data. We encourage you to review their policies.

6. Future Submission Processing

The event-flyer submission workflow is currently disabled in this app release. If enabled in a future release, submitted images may be processed to identify event details such as date, time, venue, and description.
