Privacy and cookies

This platform uses the cookies it needs to work: your language, your session, form protection, and your cookie choice itself. A preference cookie also remembers whether you want the calendar as a map, a list or a grid. It holds only that word and does not identify you.

We measure visits with Google Analytics 4. That script loads as soon as a page opens, so before you answer the cookie banner, and Google then receives your IP address, your browser details and the page you are on, and sets cookies. If you choose essential only, the measurement is no longer loaded from that moment on.

The map on the home page comes from Google Maps. As soon as it appears, your browser loads files from Google, which receives your IP address, your browser details and the page you are on, and may set cookies. If you would rather avoid that, use the list or grid view, which works entirely without Google.

Event pages are always fully readable without making a choice. There is no cookie wall.

Organiser records in this directory come from public sources. Anyone listed is informed and can have their entry corrected or removed.

With an account we keep your email address, your language and what you save yourself: your searches, who you follow and your notifications. No name, no date of birth, no location. Your password is stored irreversibly and we cannot read it.

If you fill in a profile, we keep what you put there: a nickname, a short text, a region, the year you started, your gear, a profile photo and a photo per piece of gear. All of it is optional and you can clear it at any time. The photos live in our own database, not with an external storage provider.

Your profile is private by default. The public page then does not exist and your photos are visible only to you. If you make it public yourself, that page is reachable by anyone with the link and the photos on it can be fetched publicly. The page is not offered to search engines. Your email address never appears on it.

Once signed in, a session cookie sits in your browser. It is purely technical: it proves it is you. Signing out removes it on both sides.

You can download your data in one click and delete your account in one click, both on your account page. Deleting is permanent and immediate. By email: robin.scheldeman@gmail.com.
