Privacy Policy

Last updated: 20 October 2026

AXIS FEED is a free, public calendar of Australian car meets operated by MIDNIGHT_SPEC. This page explains what we collect, why, and how to have it removed. We collect email addresses for the notifications you request, optional replies to feature suggestions, and promotional emails you separately opt into. We use analytics to understand site usage and never sell or share your data with advertisers.

What we collect

• Meet-alert email subscriptions - if you opt in via the “ENGAGE UPLINK” subscribe form. Stored alongside the filters you chose (state, vibe, event type, frequency) so we can send you relevant notifications if and when we begin sending them.
• Feature suggestions - the suggestion you submit and, if supplied, an email address for follow-up. Suggestions stay private. Please avoid including sensitive personal information.
• Optional promotional consent - if you actively tick the promotional email checkbox, we store your email, the wording and version you accepted, and the time you opted in. This is separate from submitting a suggestion and from meet-alert subscriptions.
• Suggestion abuse prevention - a keyed, one-way hash derived from your IP address limits repeated submissions. We do not save your raw IP in the suggestion database; expired rate-limit entries are removed on the next accepted submission.
• Anonymous usage analytics - we use PostHog to count page views, autocaptured clicks (which element you clicked and its visible text), and broken-page errors. PostHog stores a random ID in a first-party cookie and in localStorage. We do not call PostHog’s identify() API, so this ID is never linked to your email or any personal information. Session recording and surveys are disabled.
• Standard server logs - Cloudflare (our host) records request metadata such as IP address, user-agent, and timestamp for security and abuse prevention, per Cloudflare’s privacy policy.

We do not collect: names, phone numbers, payment details, precise location, browsing history outside this site, or any social-media identity unless you publicly tag us.

Why we collect it

• Email: to send the meet notifications you requested, reply about a suggestion, or send MIDNIGHT_SPEC car meet news, website updates and promotional offers if you separately opted in. An email supplied for a suggestion alone is not added to a marketing list.
• Analytics: to understand which states and vibes are most active so we can prioritise data quality, and to catch performance and 404 regressions.
• Server logs: security, rate-limiting, and debugging.

Where it’s stored

• Email subscriptions: Supabase (managed Postgres, Mumbai region - ap-south-1).
• Feature suggestions, optional reply emails and promotional consent records: private Supabase tables, accessible only to MIDNIGHT_SPEC administrators and the server-side submission handler.
• Event images: Cloudflare R2 object storage.
• Analytics events: PostHog (US region - us.i.posthog.com).
• Site hosting and CDN: Cloudflare Pages.

All transfers are encrypted in transit (HTTPS). Database access is restricted to MIDNIGHT_SPEC and gated by Postgres Row-Level Security; subscription writes go through a SECURITY DEFINER function so the public anon key cannot read the subscriber list.

Who we share it with

No one. We do not sell, rent, or share your email or analytics data with third parties. The processors named above (Supabase, Cloudflare, PostHog) act on our behalf under their own privacy terms.

How long we keep it

• Email and suggestions: until you ask us to delete them or we remove them during review. If we begin sending notifications or promotional emails, every marketing email will include an unsubscribe link. You can also withdraw promotional consent now by emailing send2business@outlook.com; this does not prevent you from submitting suggestions.
• Analytics: retained per PostHog’s default project retention.
• Server logs: retained per Cloudflare’s default policy.

Delete or access your data

Email send2business@outlook.com from the address you subscribed with and we’ll confirm deletion within a few days. Australian residents have rights under the Privacy Act 1988; if you’re in the EU/UK, you have rights under the GDPR (access, rectification, erasure, portability, objection).

Cookies and local storage

We use PostHog’s first-party cookie and localStorage entries for anonymous analytics. We do not use advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or third-party trackers. You can block analytics by enabling your browser’s tracking-protection feature or using an extension like uBlock Origin; the site works fine without analytics.

Children

AXIS FEED is a public events calendar with no account system. We don’t knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 13 (or the minimum digital-consent age in your country). If you believe a child has subscribed, email us and we’ll remove the record.

Changes

If we change this policy, the “Last updated” date above will change. Material changes (new data we collect, new processors, new sharing) will also be announced on the homepage.
