Privacy Policy

Gig Local Radar is operated from Silver City, New Mexico, United States. This policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, and the choices you have. We do not sell your personal information.

Account information such as your email address, display name, username and password. Passwords are stored in hashed form and are never visible to us.

Profile and listing content such as your town, business description, prices, photos, captions and hashtags.

Messages you send to other users through the platform, and reports you submit about content or other users.

Billing information when you purchase a paid service. Card details are entered directly with our payment processor, Stripe. We never see or store your full card number.

Basic technical data such as device type, browser, approximate location derived from the town you choose or from location permission you grant, pages viewed, and security logs used to detect spam and abuse.

We use essential cookies and local storage to keep you signed in and to remember your preferences.

Photos taken on a phone often contain hidden EXIF data, including the exact GPS coordinates of where the photo was taken. Every photo uploaded to Gig Local Radar is automatically processed to remove that embedded location and camera metadata before it is published.

We also scan captions before publishing. If a caption appears to contain a phone number, email address or home address, we pause the post and ask you to confirm before it goes public.

Uploaded photos and text may be checked by automated safety screening to detect prohibited or unsafe content. Screening results are used only for moderation.

To create and operate your account, show your listings and posts to nearby users, deliver messages, process payments for paid services, prevent fraud and abuse, respond to support requests, and meet legal obligations.

Your display name, username, town, profile details, listings, photo drops and reviews are public. Your email address, exact address, and private messages are not shown publicly. Only share contact details you are comfortable making public.

Supabase for database, authentication and file storage. Stripe for payment processing and subscription billing. Google Maps and Google Places for location search and autocomplete. Automated AI services for listing assistance and content safety screening.

These providers process data on our behalf under their own privacy policies. We share only what is needed for them to perform their function.

We keep your account data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we remove your profile, listings and posts. Limited records may be retained where required for legal, tax, security or fraud-prevention purposes.

You can view and edit your profile, delete your listings and posts, and request deletion of your account at any time. You may also request a copy of the personal information we hold about you. Email support@giglocalradar.com and we will respond within 24 to 48 hours.

The service is not intended for anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect information from children. If we learn that we have, we will delete it.

We use encrypted connections, row-level database access controls, private file storage with time-limited access links, and rate limiting to protect your information. No system is perfectly secure, so please use a strong, unique password.

We will post any updates to this policy on this page with a new effective date. Questions? Email support@giglocalradar.com. Gig Local Radar, Silver City, New Mexico, United States.
