Privacy policy

TotallyVibes helps you find places to hang out, see where the vibe is, join events and team up with friends. This is what we keep about you and why. We follow South Africa's Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA).

What we keep

• Your account: your name, email address and password (stored scrambled, so nobody can read it), and the nickname we give you.
• Your profile, if you fill it in: bio, city and photos.
• If you sign in with Google or Facebook: your name, email address and your account number with them, so we know it's you next time. We never see your Google or Facebook password, contacts or posts, and we don't post anything for you.
• What you do on TotallyVibes: the venues you check in at and when, events, tickets, squads, rides and convoys you join, reviews you write, and requests you send (for example to claim a venue or organise events).
• Your location: only when your browser or phone asks and you allow it. We use it to show venues near you and to confirm you're really at a venue when you check in. We keep which venue you checked in at, not a record of where you've been.

Who sees what

• Other people see your nickname, not your real name, unless you choose to show your real name in Settings.
• Your squad-mates can see which venue you've checked in at.
• Venue owners and event organisers see what they need to run the events you join (for example who's coming or has a ticket).
• We never sell your information or give it to advertisers.

How long we keep it

As long as you have an account. When you delete your account, we delete your profile and activity, except anything the law says we must keep (for example records of payments).

Your rights

You can ask to see the information we hold about you, correct it, or have it deleted. You can also complain to South Africa's Information Regulator (inforegulator.org.za).

Terms of use

• Be real and respectful. Use your own account, don't pretend to be someone else, and don't harass, threaten or spam anyone.
• What you post is yours, and you're responsible for it. Only post photos and words you have the right to share. You let us show them on TotallyVibes.
• Venues and organisers run their own events. TotallyVibes shows what's on; the venue or organiser is responsible for the event itself, its safety, its age limits and its prices.
• Look after yourself. Meet people in public places, drink responsibly, and never drink and drive.
• We may suspend accounts that break these rules or put other people at risk.
• The app is provided as it is. We work hard to keep it accurate and running, but we can't promise it will always be available or that every listing is correct.
• Changes. If these terms change, we'll update this page and the date at the top.
