Privacy Policy

Last updated: 10 November 2026

Band Manje is a band-management app. It reads the booking conversations and money records a band connects to it, turns confirmed bookings into shows, and works out each show's profit and loss. This policy explains what data Band Manje uses, why, and what control you have over it.

Who we are

Band Manje is operated by Band Manje Ltd ("we", "us"). We are the data controller for the personal data described here. Contact: owen@bandmanje.app.

What we collect

1. Your account: your band's name, your email address, and, if you sign in with Google, the verified email address Google confirms for you (scopes openid and email). If you set a password we store only a one-way hash of it.
2. Gmail, only if you connect it: with your permission we read your Gmail messages (read-only access, scope https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.readonly) to find booking conversations: venues, dates, fees and confirmations. We cannot send, delete or change your email with this access.
3. Other sources you connect: messages sent to your WhatsApp Business number and your Facebook Page's Messenger inbox; your Meta ad accounts' spend reports; your Eventbrite events, ticket sales and payouts; your bank transactions from the feed you connect; your SumUp till sales; and files in Google Drive folders you share with the app.
4. Technical data: a cookie that keeps you signed in, and server logs (time, page requested, IP address) kept for security and fault-finding.

How we use it

We use your data only to provide Band Manje's features to you: building your list of shows and their stages, matching money to shows, showing your profit and loss, and preparing drafts (emails, Eventbrite drafts, paused ad campaigns) that you choose whether to send or publish. The app never sends, publishes or spends on your behalf without your own separate action.

Google user data

Band Manje's use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. In particular:

• We use Gmail data only to provide and improve the user-facing features described above.
• We do not sell Gmail data, use it for advertising, or transfer it to anyone except as needed to provide those features, to comply with the law, or as part of a merger or sale with notice to you.
• We do not use Gmail data to train artificial-intelligence or machine-learning models, and no AI model is given your Gmail data.
• No person reads your Gmail data unless you ask us to (for example, for support), it is needed for security or to comply with the law, or it has been aggregated and anonymised.

What other users see

Your messages, shows, contacts and money are private to your account. Public facts about venues, such as a venue's name, address and capacity, form a shared directory that every user can see. Nothing from your messages or accounts is shown to another user.

Support access

To help when something goes wrong, Band Manje's support account can open your account read-only while your support access is switched on. It cannot change anything, every page it opens is recorded, and you can switch support access off at any time.

Where your data is stored

Band Manje runs on Render, in the United States (Oregon). Connection tokens for Gmail and your other sources are encrypted at rest. When data leaves the UK, we rely on the safeguards UK data protection law requires, such as the UK International Data Transfer Addendum.

Who we share it with

Only the service providers that run the app: Render (hosting and database), Google (sign-in, Gmail, Drive), Meta (WhatsApp, Messenger, ad reports), Eventbrite, SumUp and your bank-feed provider, each only for the data you connected to it. We do not sell personal data.

How long we keep it

We keep your data while your account is open. You can revoke Band Manje's Gmail access at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions. If you close your account or ask us to delete your data, we delete it within 30 days, except where the law requires us to keep records.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you can ask us for a copy of your data, to correct it, to delete it, to restrict or object to how we use it, or to receive it in a portable form. Email owen@bandmanje.app. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.

Children

Band Manje is for bands and their managers. It is not intended for anyone under 18.

Changes

If we change this policy we will update this page and the date above, and tell you in the app if the change is significant.
