Privacy policy
Who we are
Yoday (yoday.co) is run by Steven Hylands (trading as Yoday), Northern Ireland. We’re the controller of your personal data under UK GDPR. Questions: privacy@yoday.co.
What we keep, and why
Your email address
To sign you in and send Your week, Your weekend and alerts you’ve switched on
Home area, how you get about, how far is fine, when you go out, budget
To pick what’s on that you can get to
Your answers (Going, Interested, Not for me and why), follows, what you tap, open or click
To learn your taste and show it on Taste, where you can change or undo it
Who you’ve ticked that some events are made for (kids’ ages, LGBTQ+, Students, Over 50s, Women, Men), if you tick any
So events made for one group only reach your picks if you’ve said they’re for you. Never shown to anyone, and you can untick any on Taste
Your name, handle and who you follow, if you add them
Friends going, and who sees your plans (you choose in Settings)
How the site is used, without cookies
To fix what’s broken and see what works
We never sell your personal data, and nothing a host pays for uses it. We may use or share figures across many people (say, how many in Belfast are into comedy) that can’t identify anyone, and never from your calendar.
Your calendar
If you add your plans to your calendar, we only write to it: it fetches a private link of what you’re going to. If you connect Google Calendar, we see only when you’re busy, never what it is, and use that only to rank picks for you and show clashes. We keep your busy times for the next six weeks; Disconnect deletes them and tells Google.
Google user data
Yoday’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We don’t use it for ads, don’t sell it, don’t use it to train AI models, and no person reads it.
Who processes it for us
Supabase (database, Ireland), Vercel (hosting, Dublin), Resend (email), PostHog (EU) and DataFast (analytics, cookieless), and Google if you connect your calendar. Videos and music you play come from YouTube (privacy-enhanced mode) and Spotify.
How long
As long as you have an account. Delete your account in Settings and your answers, taste, follows, friends and calendar links go at once; copies in backups expire within 30 days.
Your rights
You can see, correct, download or delete your data, object to how we use it, or withdraw consent, by emailing privacy@yoday.co. You can complain to the ICO.
Age
Yoday is for people 18 and over.
Changes
We’ll say on this page, with the date, and email you about anything that matters.
