Spin Vinyl ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding it. By using Spin Vinyl at spinvinyl.co, you agree to the practices described here.
Account information: When you create an account, we collect your email address and a password (stored as a secure hash — we never see your plaintext password). You may optionally provide a username, preferred name, city, country, and birthdate.
Collection data: We store the vinyl records you add to your collection and wishlist, including artist, album title, year, label, genre, cover art, and any ratings or notes you provide.
Profile information: Information you voluntarily add to your profile — favorite genres, artists, albums, turntable setup, and record shop preferences.
Usage data: We collect standard web server logs including your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and timestamps. This is used for security monitoring and debugging.
Images: If you use the AI cover identification feature, the photo you take is sent to Anthropic's API for processing. We do not store these images beyond the duration of the identification request.
Spin Vinyl integrates with several third-party services. Each has its own privacy policy:
We do not sell your personal data. We do not share your data with advertisers. Your data is shared only with the third-party services listed above, which are necessary to operate Spin Vinyl.
If you make your collection, wishlist, or trophies public via the Privacy & Sharing settings, that content becomes accessible to anyone with the link. You can make your profile private again at any time.
We may disclose your information if required by law or to protect the rights and safety of Spin Vinyl or its users.
Your data is stored on Supabase, which uses industry-standard encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest. We use row-level security policies to ensure users can only access their own data.
Passwords are hashed using bcrypt and are never stored in plaintext. We do not have access to your password.
No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. While we take reasonable measures to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Spin Vinyl uses browser localStorage to store your session state, UI preferences (such as dismissed banners), and PWA installation preferences. We do not use third-party advertising cookies.
Supabase sets a session cookie to keep you logged in. This is a strictly necessary cookie required for the service to function.
Depending on where you live, you may have the following rights:
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@spinvinyl.co. We will respond within 30 days.
Spin Vinyl is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
Spin Vinyl is operated from the United States. If you access the service from the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or other regions with data protection laws, your data is transferred to and processed in the US. By using Spin Vinyl, you consent to this transfer.
Users in the EEA and UK have additional rights under GDPR, including the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make significant changes, we will post a notice within the app. Continued use of Spin Vinyl after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
