Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 21, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Rifflynk ("Rifflynk," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use the Rifflynk mobile application and website (the "Service"). Rifflynk is operated by Ashwin Christopher, an individual based in the United States. By using the Service, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Information We Collect

We collect only the information needed to operate the Service:

  • Account information: your name or organization name, email address, and a password. Passwords are stored in hashed form by our authentication provider; we never see your plain-text password.
  • Profile information you choose to provide: for musicians, this may include your bio, roles and skills, reading ability, instruments and gear, city and state, travel radius, availability and unavailable dates, profile photo, and video links. For churches and organizations, this may include your organization name, denomination, city and state, website, YouTube link, bio, service needs, preferred roles, and profile photo.
  • Activity and content: openings you post, applications, bookings, ratings, and messages you send through Lynk.
  • Payment information: subscription payments are processed by Stripe. We do not collect or store your full card number. We store a Stripe customer identifier and your subscription status so we can manage your plan.
  • Basic technical information: limited device and log information necessary to operate and secure the Service. We do not use third-party advertising or analytics trackers.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to: provide and operate the Service; authenticate your account; enable matching, messaging, and bookings between users; process and manage subscription payments; communicate with you about your account; maintain the safety and integrity of the Service; and comply with legal obligations.

3. Service Providers

We rely on a small number of trusted providers to run the Service, and share only the information necessary for them to perform their function:

  • Supabase — database, authentication, and file storage hosting.
  • Stripe — payment processing and subscription billing.
  • Vercel — website hosting.
  • Apple — distribution of the iOS app.

These providers process your information on our behalf under their own privacy and security commitments.

4. Cookies and Local Storage

We use local storage (and, on the web, your browser's storage) to keep you signed in. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. When you check out or manage billing, Stripe may set its own cookies on its hosted pages, which are governed by Stripe's privacy policy.

5. Email Communications

We send account and transactional emails, such as sign-up confirmation, password reset, and billing notices. We do not send marketing emails without your consent.

6. How Information Is Shared and Visible

Rifflynk is a platform for connecting people, so some information is visible to other users by design. Profile information you add is shown to other users to enable matching — for example, churches can view musician profiles, and musicians can view organization profiles. Messages are visible to the participants in a conversation. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing.

7. Data Retention

We keep your information for as long as your account is active. We may retain limited information as needed to meet legal, tax, or billing obligations. You can request deletion of your account and associated personal information by contacting us at the email below.

8. Your Rights and Choices

You can access and update most of your information directly in the app by editing your profile. You may also request to access, correct, export, or delete your personal information, or withdraw consent, by contacting us. We will respond within a reasonable time and in accordance with applicable law.

9. Children

The Service is not intended for anyone under 18 years old, and we do not knowingly collect information from children under 18.

10. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. International Users

Rifflynk is operated from the United States, and your information is processed and stored in the United States. By using the Service, you understand that your information will be handled as described in this policy.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
