We collect minimal information necessary to deliver the best happy hour and specials discovery service. When you subscribe to our weekly newsletter, we collect your email address. When you submit a special or venue using our crowdsourced submissions modal, we collect the venue details (name, address, city, hours, age restriction) and any photo assets you upload.
To locate specials closest to you, we request access to your device's real-time geographic location. This is optional. If you grant permission, your browser geolocation data is processed entirely on the client-side to calculate distance metrics and plot venues on the crawl map. We do not store or track your history of location movements on our servers. If permission is denied, you may manually enter your ZIP code, which resolves the filter to a specific city and is not stored.
Your email address is strictly used to send you our curated weekly newsletter with local weekend events and specials. We do not sell, rent, or trade email lists to third-party advertisers. All venue and specials details you submit become public once reviewed and approved by our moderation team.
We use Vercel Analytics to track anonymous page views, performance metrics, and load times. This statistics reporting does not capture personally identifiable information (PII).
If you have any questions or would like to request removal of your submissions or email list subscription, please contact us at privacy@localspecials.co.
