Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 12, 2026

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly, such as when you create an account, submit reviews, or contact us. This may include your name, email address, and any content you submit.

We also collect certain information automatically, including your IP address, browser type, device information, and usage patterns through cookies and similar technologies.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • To provide, maintain, and improve our services
  • To personalize your experience and deliver relevant content
  • To communicate with you about updates, features, and promotions
  • To monitor and analyze trends, usage, and activities
  • To detect, investigate, and prevent fraudulent or unauthorized activity

3. Third-Party Services

We use third-party services including The Movie Database (TMDB) API for movie data and Google Analytics to understand how the site is used. Ticket and showtime links take you to sellers such as Fandango, AMC, Regal, Cinemark and Atom Tickets. These services have their own privacy policies that govern their collection and use of data.

4. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services. You may request account closure at any time through your account settings, which will anonymize your personal data in accordance with GDPR and CCPA requirements.

5. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Request deletion of your data (right to be forgotten)
  • Object to processing of your data
  • Request data portability

6. Cookies

We use essential cookies for authentication and session management, and Google Analytics cookies to understand how visitors use the site. If you set a city or ZIP code for showtimes, it is stored only in your browser’s local storage and never sent to our servers. You can manage cookies through your browser settings.

7. Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including encryption of data in transit (HTTPS), secure password hashing (bcrypt), and regular security audits. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.
