Privacy Policy
This Week (“we”, “us”) is a local events map app. This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and how you can control it. It covers the This Week iOS app and related This Week web pages we operate for the product.
What we collect
- Account. If you sign in, we store an account identifier and basic profile fields from Apple, Google, or email sign-in (for example name and email when that provider shares them).
- Location. With your permission, the app uses your location to center the map and show nearby events. You can deny or revoke location access in iOS Settings.
- Event preferences. Choices you make in the app — such as Going, Interested, Not Going, saved reminders, and which area edition you follow — are stored so they sync to your account.
- Notifications. If you enable reminders or push alerts, we store a device token so we can deliver those messages.
- Waitlist. If you join the waitlist on our site, we collect the email and city or ZIP you submit so we can tell you when This Week launches near you.
- Diagnostics. We may receive basic technical logs (for example app version and crash reports) to keep the service reliable.
How we use it
We use this information to:
- Run the app and show the weekly map for your area
- Save your RSVPs, reminders, and account settings
- Send the notifications you asked for
- Respond to support requests
- Improve reliability and fix bugs
We do not sell your personal information.
Sharing
We use infrastructure providers to host the app backend, deliver push notifications, and process waitlist form submissions. They process data only to provide those services. We may disclose information if required by law.
Your choices
- Turn location, notifications, or sign-in off in iOS Settings or in the app.
- Delete your account from the in-app account screen when signed in. That removes your account-linked RSVPs and preferences from our systems.
- Email elliotjbrainerd@gmail.com to ask questions, request a copy of your data, or request deletion if you cannot use the in-app flow.
Children
This Week is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Changes
We may update this policy. The “Last updated” date above will change when we do. Continued use of the app after an update means you accept the revised policy.
