Niteclub — Privacy Policy
EFFECTIVE DATE: 7 OCTOBER 2000 26
Niteclub is operated by Nachtclub LC, Tucson, Arizona, USA. This policy explains how we handle personal information for the Niteclub app, website, social and music features, Radio, memberships, and creator program where offered. It describes our practices and your choices; it does not substitute for a separate consent required for sensitive processing.
1. Information We Collect
- Account and profile: account identifiers, username, email or sign-in details, birthdate or age-verification status, profile picture, verification and membership status, and optional profile information you provide, such as name, gender, non-precise location, phone number, and links.
- Content and interactions: posts, stories, messages, images, videos, music and artwork you upload; follower/following relationships, close-friend and block settings, invites, likes, saved items, story views/reactions, Radio chat and music activity, notifications, themes owned or submitted, and preferences.
- Purchases: Apple transaction identifiers, products, purchase and renewal dates, localized price/currency, verified access, cancellations, refunds, and reconciliation records. RevenueCat processes purchase and subscription events. Niteclub does not store your payment-card number.
- Creator records: submission-time follower snapshots, moderation and rights decisions, accepted agreement version and timestamp, payout-provider account references, verification/tax/payout readiness, supported-country information, exact sale allocations, refunds, carried fractions, statements, actual fees, and payout status. Sensitive identity, bank, and certified tax information is submitted through approved hosted provider flows rather than ordinary Niteclub profile fields.
- Technical and support information: IP address, device/app/browser information, authentication and security events, request identifiers, timestamps, crash/performance diagnostics, feature-usage events, and messages you send support. Sentry is used for diagnostics; infrastructure may record connection and delivery logs. We do not collect precise GPS by default.
2. How We Use Information
We use information to create and secure accounts; provide social, music, Radio, theme, and membership features; deliver content and notifications; validate purchases; review creator eligibility and rights; reconcile proceeds, fees, refunds, and payouts; respond to support and disputes; detect fraud and abuse; improve reliability and features; and meet legal, tax, and record-keeping obligations. Creator checks and theme payouts are separate from membership. Theme sales do not imply paid music licensing or guaranteed Radio exposure.
3. Content Visibility, Music & Radio
Content and profile information are shared according to the feature and audience settings you use. Other users may see your profile, relationships, contributions, and interactions where the app makes them visible. Messages and moderation reports are processed to operate the relevant features and investigate abuse. Limited visibility or an expiry period is not a guarantee that others cannot record or copy content.
Music submissions include media, attribution, rights confirmations, and review decisions. Public Radio broadcasts require appropriate permissions and curator approval. Live streams, listener requests, and Radio chat generate delivery or activity records. Broadcast approval does not mean we own your recording or composition.
Approved theme previews, creator attribution, and permitted Niteclub promotional screenshots or advertising may display your work and creator identity. The Terms explain promotional rights and the immediate stop on new promotional use and running paid campaigns when a creator leaves.
4. Creator Identity, Banking & Tax Verification
Where creator verification is offered, Stripe-hosted flows may collect legal name, address, birthdate, identity documents, a selfie, business and bank details, and other required information. Stripe Identity may use biometric facial comparison to verify that an identity document and selfie match. We use verification results to confirm identity, adulthood, payout-recipient matching, and fraud/safety requirements. Our systems use restricted provider references, verification results/status, timestamps, and relevant audit evidence; ordinary app profiles and logs are not a place to submit ID images, bank documents, or tax identification numbers.
Nachtclub LC and Stripe act as independent controllers for their respective identity-verification processing; Stripe may also act as a service provider. Stripe processes information for its own lawful purposes, including operating and improving verification and risk services, under its Privacy Policy and applicable identity terms. Verification may involve processing outside your jurisdiction, including in the United States, and Stripe’s verification providers or authorized authorities as described by Stripe. We do not sell identity-verification information or use it for advertising.
Before live identity collection, we provide the purpose, applicable consent flow, retention information, and any required alternative verification method. Declining selfie or biometric verification does not consent to it; contact CONTACT@NITECLUB.CO for an applicable alternative or questions. Ordinary app use does not itself authorize biometric processing. The updated creator verification and payout program remains subject to activation.
Certified tax forms are collected through a separately approved secure provider flow where required. Niteclub retains necessary references, certification/readiness status, and restricted financial/audit records. Stripe KYC completion does not by itself establish certified tax readiness. We and our providers may use information for legally required reporting, withholding, sanctions checks, and payout administration.
5. Service Providers & Other Disclosures
- Supabase: authentication, database, storage, and social/realtime services.
- Cloudflare and hosting infrastructure: website, content/CDN delivery, Radio streaming, and security/request logs.
- Apple: sign-in where used, App Store billing, subscriptions, refunds, and push delivery.
- RevenueCat: purchase validation, subscription/purchase lifecycle events, and reporting.
- Stripe: hosted creator onboarding, identity verification where offered, and payout processing. Approved tax providers may process certified forms and reporting data.
- Sentry and communications providers: crash/performance diagnostics, support, email, and notification delivery.
We share data needed for each service and use contractual and access safeguards as applicable. Some providers, including Apple and Stripe, independently process information under their policies. We may also disclose information to comply with law or valid legal requests, investigate abuse or rights complaints, protect safety/security, or support a merger or asset transfer subject to applicable safeguards. We do not sell personal data.
6. Promotions, Advertising & Device Storage
Current first-party promotions may use approved creator work under the Terms. Future curated advertising, venues, events, or artist partnerships are ambitions rather than an authorization for new personal-data uses. Introducing materially different advertising or tracking practices requires appropriate notice, updated disclosures, and consent or controls where required. This policy does not grant blanket consent to future personalized advertising.
Cookies, local storage, app caches, and similar technologies may support authentication, preferences, content delivery, security, and feature measurement. Device permissions and notification choices are managed through app or device settings. Optional profile location is information you choose to provide; it is not continuous precise-location tracking.
7. Your Choices & Requests
You may edit available profile fields and preferences, use in-app deletion controls, and send access, correction, deletion, consent-withdrawal, or other applicable privacy requests to CONTACT@NITECLUB.CO. Depending on your location and applicable law, you may also have rights to a copy of your information, portability, restriction, objection, or a complaint to your local privacy authority. We may verify your identity before fulfilling a request and explain applicable exceptions. We respond within legally required periods.
For Stripe verification data, contact us or use Stripe’s privacy request process. We coordinate requests for data Stripe holds on our behalf; independent provider records follow their legal obligations. Consent may be withdrawn for processing based on consent, without affecting lawful prior processing. Some creator functions may be unavailable without required verification; applicable alternative verification is addressed separately.
Account deletion does not automatically cancel an Apple subscription or erase legally required financial records. Cancel subscriptions in iPhone Settings > your name > Subscriptions. Creator departure is handled separately from prior buyer access, accrued earnings, and financial-record retention.
8. Retention & Deletion
We keep information for the purposes for which it was collected, including account operation, support, security, rights disputes, financial reconciliation, reporting, and legal obligations. Deletion requests initiate removal from relevant active systems; limited records can remain in backups, logs, or restricted legal/financial records where necessary. Expiring public visibility is separate from backend retention. Necessary creator purchase, accepted-agreement, refund, payout, and fractional-balance records may remain after departure to honor prior transactions and legal duties.
Provider identity and financial records have separate retention rules. Stripe’s current Identity terms provide a default seven-year storage period after verification on a business’s behalf unless a different permitted period is configured; Stripe may retain records for its own lawful purposes. The applicable live verification notice must specify our configured period and deletion process before collection. We handle access/deletion requests through the contact route above rather than promising immediate erasure of every provider record.
9. Security
We use access controls, restricted financial/verification records, transport protections, and other appropriate safeguards. No service can guarantee absolute security. Keep your account and device secure and report suspected misuse promptly. We do not promise that messages or uploads are end-to-end encrypted.
10. Adults Only
Niteclub is for people aged 18 or older. If we learn that an underage person has an account, we take steps to restrict it and remove associated personal information subject to lawful retention. Report suspected underage accounts to CONTACT@NITECLUB.CO.
11. International Processing
Information may be processed in the United States and other countries where we and our providers operate. Where applicable, we use required transfer safeguards and legal bases. Using the service is not a substitute for consent or another safeguard required by law.
12. Changes
We update this policy when practices change and show the revised date. We provide material-change notice and obtain additional consent where legally required. A policy update does not retroactively authorize undisclosed sensitive processing.
