Privacy Policy
Last updated: January 20, 2026
1. Who We Are
This Privacy Policy describes how The Media Calendar (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use themediacalnedar.com (the “Service”).
2. Information We Collect
We collect the following categories of information:
- Account information: email address, name, and authentication data (including hashed passwords if you create a password-based account).
- Profile information (optional): company, title, company email, location, and LinkedIn profile URL (if provided).
- Subscriptions and preferences: events you follow, subscription type (full/custom), filtering preferences, and consent flags (e.g., email/calendar consent and terms acceptance).
- Event submissions and content: information you submit to list an event (e.g., title, dates, location, description, links, and source).
- Calendar integration data: if you connect Google, we may process Google OAuth tokens and use Google Calendar API access to create/update/delete events you choose to sync.
- Usage and device data: basic log data such as IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and approximate timestamps (typically collected automatically by hosting/infrastructure).
3. How We Use Information
We use information to:
- Provide and operate the Service (accounts, subscriptions, and feeds)
- Personalize your experience (e.g., saved/followed events and filters)
- Sync events to your calendar if you enable calendar features
- Moderate and manage submitted events
- Maintain security, prevent abuse, and debug issues
- Communicate with you about the Service (including transactional messages)
4. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in and to operate the Service (for example, authentication/session cookies). You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling cookies may impact functionality.
5. Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information in these situations:
- Service providers: vendors who help us run the Service (e.g. hosting, database, email delivery). They can access information only to perform services for us and must protect it.
- Google APIs (if you connect Google): to perform calendar sync actions you request. We do not use Google user data for advertising and do not sell it.
- Legal and safety: to comply with law, enforce our terms, or protect rights, safety, and security.
- Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets (information may be transferred as part of that transaction).
6. Google API Services User Data (Limited Use)
If you connect Google, our use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We use Google Calendar access solely to provide the calendar sync features you enable.
7. Data Retention
We keep personal information only as long as necessary to operate the Service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. You can request deletion of your account information as described below.
8. Your Choices and Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or obtain a copy of your information, or to object/restrict certain processing. You can also:
- Update profile information in your account
- Unsubscribe from optional communications where offered
- Revoke Google Calendar access in your Google Account settings if you previously connected Google
To request access, deletion, or export of your data, contact us using the information below.
9. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Children’s Privacy
The Service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will post the updated policy on this page and update the “Last updated” date.
