Privacy.
Tonight is built around two ideas: tell you what's happening near you tonight, and ask for the absolute minimum to do that. This page is the long-form version of that promise.
1. What we collect
We only collect what the app actually needs to function:
- Account info. When you sign in, your phone number (via Firebase Phone Auth) or your name and email address (via Google Sign-In). We never see your Google password.
- Location. When you grant permission, the app reads your approximate location to find happy hours nearby. Location is processed on-device and used only to query venues in your area — we don't store your location history on our servers.
- Reminders. If you set a happy-hour reminder, the schedule is stored locally on your device. We don't see which venues you remind.
- Usage events. Anonymous analytics events (e.g., which screens you open, whether you walked to a venue) via Firebase Analytics. These are tied to a Firebase-issued installation ID, not to your real identity.
- Crash logs and diagnostics. Apple may share aggregated crash reports with us if you've opted into sharing diagnostics in iOS Settings.
2. What we don't collect
- We don't collect or sell your contact list, photos, calendar, microphone, or camera data.
- We don't track you across other apps or websites.
- We don't build advertising profiles.
3. How we use it
- Show you happy hours. Location plus venue data → the Index, the Map, Tonight's Run.
- Sign you in. Your phone/email is used to authenticate and persist your account.
- Improve the app. Aggregated analytics tell us which features work and which don't.
- Send local reminders. Happy-hour reminders are scheduled on your device by iOS.
4. Who we share with
Tonight runs on a small set of infrastructure providers. We share only what each one needs to do its job:
- Google / Firebase — authentication, analytics, Firestore database, Cloud Functions. Subject to Firebase's privacy terms.
- Google AI (Gemini) — used server-side to extract happy-hour information from public venue websites. Only the venue URL is sent; no user data.
- Apple — receives device-level telemetry per its own privacy terms. We do not control this layer.
We don't sell your data to anyone, ever.
5. Your rights
You can, at any time:
- Delete your account. Open the You tab, scroll to the "Danger zone" section, and tap Delete account. Deletion is immediate and permanent — your profile and sign-in record are removed and, for Sign in with Apple users, your Apple refresh token is revoked. If for any reason the in-app delete doesn't work, you can also email support@tonightapp.com with the subject "Delete my account" from the address used to sign in and we'll handle it within 30 days.
- Revoke location. iOS Settings → Tonight → Location. The app will still launch; it just won't show nearby venues.
- Opt out of analytics. iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Analytics & Improvements → Share With App Developers.
6. Children
Tonight is not intended for users under 21. We don't knowingly collect data from anyone under 21. If you believe a child has signed up, email us and we'll remove the account.
7. Security
We use industry-standard encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest (Firestore encryption). No system is perfect; if you spot a security issue, please email support@tonightapp.com.
8. Changes
We'll update this page when our practices change and bump the effective date at the top. If a change is material we'll surface a notice in the app the next time you open it.
