Privacy Policy

1. Overview

At The Show ("the App") is an iOS application developed by McConnell Dev ("we," "us," or "our"). This Privacy Policy explains how the App handles your information. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices.

By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the App.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Data Stored Locally on Your Device

The App stores the following data locally on your device using Apple's SwiftData framework. This data is never transmitted to our servers because we do not operate any servers.

• Concert attendance history — Shows you've marked as attended, imported from your setlist.fm profile
• Search history — Recently viewed artists, stored for your convenience
• Show scores and statistics — Computed locally from publicly available setlist data
• Cached artist and setlist data — Stored locally to reduce network requests and improve performance
• App preferences — Your display settings and preferences

2.2 Location Data

The App may request access to your device's location to:

• Find upcoming concerts near you
• Detect when you arrive at a venue to prompt the live setlist viewer

Location access is entirely optional and only activated when you explicitly grant permission through iOS system prompts. You can revoke location permission at any time in your device's Settings. Location data is used only on your device and is never transmitted to us or any third party.

2.3 Advertising Data

The App displays ads served by Google AdMob. To deliver and measure ads, Google's SDK may collect or use:

• Device advertising identifier (IDFA) — only if you grant permission through Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt
• General location data — approximate location derived from IP address (not GPS)
• Device information — device model, OS version, and similar technical data used for ad compatibility

This data is collected and processed by Google, not by us. You can opt out of personalized advertising by declining the tracking prompt or adjusting your privacy settings in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking. Ads will still appear but will not be personalized.

2.4 Affiliate and Referral Links

The App may include links to third-party ticketing platforms such as SeatGeek and Ticketmaster. Some of these links may contain affiliate or referral tracking parameters that allow us to earn a commission if you purchase tickets. These links do not transmit any of your personal data to us. Any data collected during your interaction with these ticketing platforms is governed by their respective privacy policies.

2.5 Information We Do NOT Collect

• We do not create user accounts or require login
• We do not collect names, email addresses, or other personal identifiers
• We do not operate our own analytics or tracking systems
• We do not use cookies
• We do not sell your personal data to anyone

3. Third-Party Services

The App connects to the following third-party APIs to retrieve publicly available music, event, and artist data. These connections are made directly from your device to fetch public data only.

4. How We Use Your Information

All app data processing happens locally on your device to:

• Display setlists and concert information
• Compute show scores, song rarity, and personal statistics
• Show nearby upcoming concerts (when location is permitted)
• Remember your recently viewed artists
• Generate shareable score cards and setlist images
• Display relevant in-app advertisements via Google AdMob
• Provide links to purchase tickets from third-party platforms (which may include affiliate tracking)

5. Data Retention and Deletion

Since all data is stored locally on your device:

• Deleting the App removes all stored data permanently
• Clearing cache within the App removes cached data
• There is no server-side data to delete

You have complete control over your data at all times.

6. Advertising and Monetization

6.1 In-App Advertising

The App is free and supported by advertisements served by Google AdMob. AdMob may use device identifiers (if you grant tracking permission) and approximate location derived from your IP address to serve relevant ads. You can control ad personalization through:

• Declining the App Tracking Transparency prompt when first using the App
• iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking → toggle off for At The Show
• Google's ad settings at adssettings.google.com

We do not share your personal data with advertisers directly. Ad data collection and processing is handled entirely by Google under their own privacy policy.

6.2 Affiliate and Referral Links

The App may include affiliate or referral links to ticketing platforms such as SeatGeek and Ticketmaster. If you click these links and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission. These links do not transmit your personal data to us. Your interaction with ticketing platforms is governed by their respective privacy policies and terms of service.

6.3 Data Sales

7. Data Security

Your data is protected by your device's built-in security features including device encryption, passcode/biometric lock, and the iOS App Sandbox.

8. Children's Privacy

At The Show is rated 4+ on the App Store. The App does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA). Since the App does not collect personal information from any user, no special provisions for children are required.

9. Your Rights

For All Users

• Access your data — all data is visible within the App
• Delete your data — uninstall the App or clear its data
• Control location sharing — grant or revoke at any time
• Control ad tracking — manage via iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking
• Opt out of personalized ads — via Google Ad Settings

For European Users (GDPR)

Under GDPR, your rights are effectively satisfied by the local-only nature of the App. The legal basis for processing is your consent (location) and legitimate interest (caching public data).

For California Users (CCPA/CPRA)

We do not sell personal information. Google AdMob may use device information for ad targeting, which may constitute "sharing" under CPRA. You can opt out of this by declining the App Tracking Transparency prompt or adjusting your iOS tracking settings. We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising beyond what is necessary for ad delivery by Google AdMob.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date.
