This Privacy Policy explains how Metal For The Masses ("MFTM", "we", "us") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our website and mobile app (the "Service"). By using the Service you agree to this policy.
Who we are
Metal For The Masses is operated by [legal entity / sole trader name], based in Australia. For any privacy questions, contact us at contact@metalforthemasses.com.au.

- Band/profile content — band names, bios, gig listings, posts, and media you upload.
- Waitlist — your name, email, and any optional message you submit.
- Communications — messages you send us.
Information collected automatically
- Usage data — how you interact with the app (screens viewed, actions taken).

How we use your information
- To provide and operate the Service (showing gigs, following bands, the feed).

- To communicate with you about your account, the beta, and updates you opted into.
- To improve the app and understand how it's used.
- To keep the community safe and enforce our terms.
How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with:
- Service providers who help us run the Service (e.g. hosting, analytics, email delivery), under confidentiality obligations.
- Other users, where you choose to make content public (profiles, gigs, posts).
- Authorities, where required by law.
[TODO: list the actual processors you use once finalised — e.g. Supabase, Netlify, analytics provider.]
Data storage & security
Your data is stored using [hosting/database provider] and protected with reasonable technical and organisational measures. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children
The Service is not directed at children under [age]. We do not knowingly collect their personal information.
