Privacy Policy | Venturer

Venturer, operated by Presciential LLC (“Venturer”, “we”, “us”), helps you discover events, deals, and leagues happening near you. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Venturer app or website, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Information We Collect

Account information. When you create an account we collect your email address and password, or — if you sign in with Google or Apple — the name and email address those providers share with us.

Profile information. During setup you provide a public display name, which may be a first name, nickname, or another name you are comfortable sharing. A username is optional. You may later add an optional bio, profile photo, and birthday. Your birthday is stored separately from your public profile, is not visible to other users, and is used only to determine eligibility for age-restricted events.

Age assurance. Before a new account is created, we may ask Apple or Google for a privacy-preserving age range. When that information is unavailable, we ask for a birth month and year solely to decide whether you meet our minimum age. We retain the resulting age band, the method used, and the date of the check, but not the fallback month and year. We use age-assurance information only for legal compliance, account eligibility, and age-appropriate access.

Location. With your permission, we read your device’s location to show events, deals, and leagues near you and to center the map. Your coordinates are sent to our servers to run nearby searches and generate recommendations; we do not build a history of your movements. You can decline or revoke location access in your device settings and instead search by place name.

Content you submit. Ratings and written reviews, interest marks, content reports, and — if you manage an organization — the events, deals, leagues, images, and other content you publish.

Usage information. We record how you interact with content in the app (for example, which events you view or mark interest in) to personalize your recommendations and to show aggregate statistics such as interest counts.

2. How We Use Your Information

To provide the service: showing nearby content, managing your account, and syncing your activity across devices.
To personalize your experience, including recommendations based on your activity and profile.
To display public content you create (such as your username and written reviews) to other users.
To moderate content, investigate reports, and keep the service safe.
To communicate with you about your account, such as email confirmation and password resets.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for third-party advertising.

3. How Your Information Is Shared

Other users. Your display name, optional username, profile details you make visible, and content you post publicly (such as event reviews) are visible to other users of the service. Your birthday is never included in your public profile.

Service providers. We rely on a small number of providers to run Venturer, and they process data only on our behalf:

Supabase — hosting, authentication, and database services.
Cloudflare — hosting and content delivery for our website and our map tiles; when you load the app or view a map, your device contacts Cloudflare, which receives your IP address and the map area you are viewing. The maps are served from our own infrastructure, so no separate map company receives this. Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors, basemap © Protomaps.
MapTiler — place search and geocoding; when you search for a place or the app looks up an address, your device contacts MapTiler, which receives your IP address and the search text or coordinates.
Google and Apple — if you choose to sign in with them.
Sentry — crash and error reporting; if the app encounters a problem, technical details about the error and your device are sent so we can fix it. These reports include your account ID but not your name, email, or IP address.
An AI service provider — if you use Smart Search, the text of your search conversation is processed to generate results.

Legal requirements. We may disclose information if required by law, or to protect the rights, safety, or property of Venturer or its users.

4. Data Retention and Deletion

We keep your information for as long as your account is active. You can permanently delete your account at any time from Settings → Delete Account, from the age-assurance screen when account access is restricted, or at venturer.app/account/delete. This removes your profile and personal data from our systems. Some records may be retained where required for legal, safety, or moderation purposes (for example, resolved content reports).

5. Security

All communication between the app and our servers is encrypted in transit, and access to personal data is restricted by row-level security on our database. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we work to protect your information using industry-standard practices.

6. Children

Venturer is not directed to children under 13, and people under 13 may not create an account. We use platform-provided age ranges or a neutral age screen to enforce that minimum. Accounts for teenagers use privacy-protective defaults and do not receive content whose age requirement exceeds their known age range. If you believe a child under 13 has created an account, please contact us so we can investigate and delete the account and associated personal data.

7. Your Choices and Rights

You can edit your profile information in the app at any time.
You can control location access through your device settings.
You can control who sees your activity in Settings → Activity Visibility.
You can delete your account and data as described above.

Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights over your personal data, such as the right to access, correct, or export it. Contact us to exercise these rights.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as the service evolves. If we make material changes, we will update the effective date above and notify you in the app or by email before the changes take effect.
