1. Who We Are
Make Parties Fun Again ("MPFA", "we", "us") is a Canadian event company. This policy covers data collected through makepartiesfunagain.com and related services.
2. What We Collect
Location (automatic)
- Your approximate city via IP address (using ipapi.co)
- If you allow it, browser geolocation for more accurate city detection (via OpenStreetMap)
- We use this to show you nearby events โ that's it
- Pages visited, scroll depth, clicks, search queries
- Screen size, browser type, session ID (random, not tied to your identity)
- UTM campaign parameters (how you found us)
- Stored in session storage โ cleared when you close your browser
- Your name, email, venue name, city, capacity, venue type, timeline, and optional notes
- Name, stage name, email, phone (optional), city, Instagram, TikTok
- Experience, genres, equipment, portfolio links, uploaded mix files
- Availability and cities
- Name, Instagram handle, uploaded photos/videos
- Payment method (e-Transfer or PayPal) and payment email
3. How We Use Your Data
- Location: Show you events near your city
- Analytics: Understand which events and pages are popular so we can improve

4. Third-Party Services
We use a few external services:

5. Cookies & Storage
We don't use tracking cookies. We use session storage (temporary, browser-side) for:
- Your detected city (so we don't re-detect every page)
- A random session ID for analytics (not tied to your identity)
- UTM parameters and landing page info
6. How Long We Keep Your Data
- Analytics: Aggregated, anonymized, kept indefinitely
- Form submissions (venue, DJ, content): Kept as long as needed for the business relationship

9. Security
We use HTTPS encryption on all pages. We don't store passwords or credit card numbers. Payment is handled externally via e-Transfer or PayPal โ we only store your payment email.
