Legal Entity: SocialDancer is operated by David Freiholtz, a private person (not a company) based in Sweden.

Data Controller: David Freiholtz is the data controller responsible for your personal data processed through this website.

Jurisdiction: Swedish and EU data protection law applies to this service.

Business Structure: Personal project operated by an individual, not a registered company

The purpose and legal basis depend on the feature you use:

• Consent: For optional analytics and newsletter subscriptions
• Contract: To provide the services you've signed up for
• Legitimate Interest: For security, fraud prevention, and service improvement

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, including encryption, access controls, and regular security assessments.

Personal Data Categories:

• Account Information: Email address, username, password hash, optional profile information
• Usage Data: Consented analytics records page and event interactions with a daily changing identifier. It does not store your IP address, account identity or browser user agent. Security and error logs are separate.
• Preference Data: Dance style preferences, favorite events, bookmarked content
• To reuse your latest AI search across filters and views, we store its query and matching event identifiers in your database-backed session. Results are usable for 24 hours and a new AI search replaces them. Sessions have a 30-day lifetime; the 24-hour limit is not a promise that stored session data is physically erased then.
• Communication Data: Messages you send us, feedback, support requests
• Third-Party Data: If you sign in with Google, we receive your name and email from your Google account

Cookies: Essential cookies keep you signed in and remember settings. Optional analytics is off until you accept it. External sign-in, maps and payment services have their own privacy terms.

Your appearance choice, map, muted style combinations and selected event types are remembered in this browser. You can remove these preferences by clearing this site's browser data.

Purposes of Processing:

• Service Provision: To create and manage your account, provide access to dance event information, enable event bookmarking and preferences
• Communication: To send service-related emails (password resets, security alerts, major updates)
• Improvement: To analyze usage patterns, identify bugs, develop new features based on user needs
• Misuse Prevention: To detect and prevent spam, abuse, and harmful queries in our AI search system
• Legal Compliance: To comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements
• Security: To detect and prevent fraud, unauthorized access, and other harmful activity

Retention: Deleting your account deactivates it and signs you out now. After 30 days, the next daily cleanup erases your personal data from the live service.

Contact us before the 30-day grace period ends to cancel deletion and reactivate your account. Signing in alone does not cancel deletion.

Shared public events, venues and organizers remain without your account attribution. A minimal deletion record keeps your former public account identifier and request and erasure times so deletion can be reapplied after a backup restore. An avatar file reference is retained only until file cleanup succeeds.

Backup copies and external providers' records have separate retention and are not erased by this live-service cleanup. Detailed optional analytics is retained for the current day and 30 completed days, then reduced to anonymous daily totals kept for five years.

External services

• Brevo · Stripe · Cloudflare · Sentry
• Opening an external event, map or sign-in link sends a request to that provider. Their privacy policy applies there.

Other Disclosures: We may disclose your information if required by law, court order, or governmental authority. We will notify you of such disclosures unless legally prohibited.

Business Transfers: In the unlikely event of a merger or acquisition, user data would be transferred to the successor entity, and you would be notified before any transfer occurs.

Your GDPR Rights:

• Right of Access (Article 15): Request a copy of your personal data we process
• Right to Rectification (Article 16): Request correction of inaccurate personal data
• Right to Erasure (Article 17): Request deletion of your personal data ('right to be forgotten')
• Right to Restriction (Article 18): Request restriction of processing your personal data
• Right to Data Portability (Article 20): Receive your data in a structured, commonly used format
• Right to Object (Article 21): Object to processing based on legitimate interests
• Right to Withdraw Consent: Withdraw consent for processing at any time
