Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

When you use BarTap, we may collect:

• Phone number — used for account verification via one-time SMS codes and, if you opt in, optional favorite-team game alerts.
• Email address — collected from bar owners for account management.
• Payment information — processed securely by Stripe. We never store card details.
• Usage data — channel change activity, token balances, and session information to operate the service.
• Consent records — when you accept our Terms & Conditions, we keep a record of the version you accepted, the date and time, your IP address, and basic device/browser information, as proof of your agreement.

2. How We Use Your Information

• To verify your identity and provide access to the platform.
• To process token purchases and channel change requests.
• To operate bar owner dashboards and revenue tracking.
• To send transactional messages (e.g., verification codes) and, only with your express opt-in, optional favorite-team game-alert SMS.

3. SMS & Messaging

By providing your phone number and tapping "Send Code," you consent to receive a one-time verification code via SMS. Message and data rates may apply.

Separately, you may opt in to favorite-team game-alert texts by turning ON the default-OFF toggle labeled "Text me when my teams are on" in the BarTap map after signing in. We only send those alerts after that express opt-in. Frequency is low and capped (maximum 3 alert messages per 7 days per user). Reply STOP to opt out at any time, or reply HELP for help.

Full program details, sample messages, and opt-in instructions are published at bartap.app/sms.

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with:

• Stripe — for payment processing.
• Twilio — for SMS verification and opted-in alert delivery.
• Supabase — for secure data storage and authentication.

5. Data Security

We use industry-standard encryption and security practices. All data is transmitted over HTTPS. Payment data is handled entirely by Stripe and never touches our servers.

6. Data Retention

We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. You may request deletion of your account and associated data by contacting us at dayton@bartap.app. For legal and compliance purposes, we may retain a record that you accepted our Terms & Conditions — including the version, date and time, IP address, and device information — even after an account is closed.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
