Privacy policy — Pitch Riders

Who runs it. Giorgio Piccirillo runs Pitch Riders. Anyone can sign in with a Google account.

What we store about you. Your Google name and email address (to know it is you), and what you do in Pitch Riders: records you save, hide or watch, your crates, notes, stars, tags, follows, the records you mark as bought, and which records you played on which day (for your streak). Nobody else can see this, except a crate you choose to share by link. The public chart shows only how many people saved or want a record, never who, and only when at least 2 people did.

Public profile and following people. Your profile is private unless you turn on "Public profile" in the People tab and choose a name. Then anyone can see your name and the records you saved, and your buys only if you also turn that on. People can follow a public profile; what they follow shows in their People tab and helps pick their "Today's 3". Turn it off at any time and it disappears at once.

Invites. Each account has an invite link. When someone joins through it, Pitch Riders stores who invited them and shows the inviter only how many joined, never who.

Login by email. If you log in with an email link instead of Google, Pitch Riders stores your address and a scrambled copy of the one-time link (valid 15 minutes). There is no password.

Daily email. Only if you turn it on in Settings: Pitch Riders sends you one email a morning with new records, to your Google address, only when something is new. Every email has a link to stop it.

Gmail. Only for the owner's own account, a scheduled job reads the owner's emails from Juno Records and the owner's order emails from record shops (Discogs, Juno, Yoyaku, Bandcamp), with the read-only Gmail scope. It takes only record details (artist, title, label, catalogue number, format, condition, price, date). Other users' Gmail is never read. It never sends, deletes or changes mail.

Premiere requests. If you send a release on the Premiere page, Pitch Riders keeps your name, email, the release details and your links. Only the owner of Pitch Riders sees them. They are used to answer you and to run the premiere, and nothing else. Ask by email to have a request deleted.

Rekordbox import. If you choose your Rekordbox XML export in Settings, your browser reads it and sends Pitch Riders only artist, title, album, label, genre, play count and stars for each track. File paths and audio never leave your computer. It is used to mark records you already have and to pick your "Today's 3". Remove it in Settings at any time.

Discogs collection. If you type your Discogs username in My records, Pitch Riders reads your public Discogs collection (vinyl only: artist, title, label, catalogue number, date added) once and stores it in your My records.

Record data. Release data and links to public audio previews from record shops (Yoyaku, Juno, Discogs), YouTube and SoundCloud. Nothing is sold or shared, and there is no advertising or tracking.

YouTube and SoundCloud. Pitch Riders uses YouTube API Services to find videos and shows them in the YouTube player. By using Pitch Riders you agree to the YouTube Terms of Service; Google's privacy policy is at policies.google.com/privacy. SoundCloud previews play in SoundCloud's own player and link back to the track on SoundCloud.

Google user data. The use of information received from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Your data. In Settings → Account, "Download my data" gives you everything stored about you as one file, and "Delete my account" removes your account and everything in it at once. Or email the contact below. You can also remove Pitch Riders' access at myaccount.google.com → Security → Third-party access.
