This Privacy Policy explains how Spotcast ("Spotcast," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you visit our website or engage our live event marketing services. We've written it in plain language. If you have questions, contact us at info@spotcast.io.
1. Who we are
Spotcast is a live event marketing service based in New York. We help brands and businesses reach audiences connected to live events through digital advertising, and measure the results. This policy covers our website and the services we provide to our clients.
2. Information we collect
Information you give us
When you fill out a form on our website or contact us, we collect the information you choose to provide. This typically includes your name, business name, email address, website, business type, event details, budget range, and any goals or messages you share. We use this to respond to your enquiry and prepare a proposal.
Information collected automatically
When you visit our website, we and our analytics providers automatically collect certain technical information, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, pages viewed, the links you click, and how you arrived at our site. We use cookies and similar technologies to do this. See Section 5 for details.
Information related to advertising campaigns
As part of the services we provide to our clients, we work with third-party advertising and location-data platforms to deliver ads to audiences connected to live events. These platforms may process device identifiers and approximate location signals derived from mobile advertising data. This data is provided and processed by those third-party platforms under their own privacy practices; Spotcast uses it to plan, deliver, and measure advertising campaigns. We do not collect precise location data directly through this website.
3. How we use information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your enquiries and communicate with you about our services;
- Prepare proposals, quotes, and event plans;
- Provide, operate, and improve our services;
- Plan, deliver, and measure advertising campaigns for our clients;
- Analyze how our website is used so we can improve it;
- Comply with legal obligations and protect our rights.
4. How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We share information only in these circumstances:
- Service providers. We share information with vendors who help us run our business and website — for example, web hosting, form processing, analytics, and advertising platforms — who process it on our behalf.
- Advertising platforms. To deliver and measure campaigns, we work with advertising and measurement partners. These partners process data under their own privacy policies.
- Legal reasons. We may disclose information if required by law, regulation, legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Spotcast, our clients, or others.
- Business transfers. If Spotcast is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
5. Cookies and analytics
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies, including Google Analytics, to understand how visitors use our site and to improve it. These tools collect information such as pages visited, time on site, and interactions, and may set cookies on your device.
We may also use advertising and remarketing tools (such as Google Ads, Meta, and other advertising pixels) that allow us and our partners to measure campaign performance and show relevant ads. These tools may use cookies and device identifiers.
You can control cookies through your browser settings, and you can opt out of Google Analytics using Google's opt-out browser add-on. You can manage personalized advertising preferences through tools like the Digital Advertising Alliance and your device's advertising settings.
6. Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of it, and the right to opt out of certain processing or the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information as defined under laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA) and, where applicable, the EU/UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
To exercise any of these rights, email us at info@spotcast.io and we will respond as required by applicable law. You can also unsubscribe from our emails at any time using the link in those emails or by contacting us.
7. Data retention
We keep personal information for as long as needed to provide our services, respond to enquiries, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When we no longer need it, we take reasonable steps to delete or anonymize it.
8. Data security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect personal information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Children's privacy
Our website and services are intended for businesses and are not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will delete it.
10. International visitors
Spotcast is based in the United States. If you access our website from outside the U.S., your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the U.S., where data protection laws may differ from those in your country.
11. Third-party links
Our website may link to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties, and we encourage you to read their privacy policies.
