Privacy Policy

Effective Date and Date of Last Revision: November 11, 2026

This policy explains what personal information Colorado Creators (coloradocreators.com) collects, how we use it, and the choices you have. The site is operated by LoCo Plus LLC, a Colorado limited liability company ("LoCo Plus," "we," "us"); "you" and "your" mean anyone who uses the site. This policy is part of, and should be read together with, our Terms of Service (“Terms”) and Community Guidelines, which govern your use of the site. We collect only what the site's features need, we don't sell your personal information or use it for targeted advertising or profiling, and we don't use advertising cookies.

What we collect

When you browse without an account: your device's IP address and basic request details (browser, pages requested), which we and our hosting and map providers log to run the site, enforce blocks, and protect its security. If you use "Near me," your device's location is used only inside your browser to center and filter the map; it's never sent to us or stored.

When you create an account: your email address, the kind of account you chose (creator, fan, business, or organization), and the date you confirmed you're 18 or older, of legal age to form a binding contract, and agreed to our Terms and Community Guidelines (with the version of each you agreed to). There are no passwords; when you sign in, we keep a record of the one-time sign-in links or codes we email you and when they're used. If you sign in with Google or LinkedIn, we receive your name, email address, and basic profile details, such as a profile picture, from that service. To stop code guessing, we count sign-in code attempts for about an hour, using a scrambled version of your email address.

If you make a creator profile: what you choose to add, such as your display name, photo, headline, bio, disciplines and roles, town (never your street address), portfolio images and videos, links, credits, highlights, pronouns, organization memberships, and whether you're open to collaborate, and how your page looks (the photo at the top of your page, its layout, color, and section order). We also keep the full original of your card photo so you can re-crop it later. You decide when it's public.

If you set up a business or organization page or join an organization: the page's details (name, logo, description, town, website, photos, videos, and, for venues and businesses, details such as address, capacity, hours, and pricing), your name, email, and role as a member, and who confirmed they're authorized to manage the page and when.

If you submit an event: the event details, and the name and email address from your account. Your contact details are never shown publicly. Private locations (like homes or filming sets) are shown only as the town.

If you join a list (like "More features coming soon"): your name, email, disciplines, town, links, whether you're open to collaborate, and whether you want the launch email.

If you use collaboration requests: the request (project type, title, what you're looking for, pay, timeframe, and note), who sent it to whom, when, and what happened, plus anyone you block. If a request is accepted, we share your name and email address with the other creator, who can keep seeing your email address on their private Connections page unless either of you blocks the other or an account is suspended.

If you save things: your favorites (events, creators, organizations), saved searches, and when you last opened Updates. These are private to you; the people and organizations you save aren't told.

If you save an event draft: the answers you've entered so far. Drafts are private to you (or, for an organization or business, its admins), are cleared when you send the event, and are deleted after 90 days untouched.

If you add or join a project: the project's details (such as its title, year, kind, description, link, photos, and videos), the people on it and their roles, who confirmed whom, and when. A person's part in a project is shown publicly only after both that person and one of the project's leads confirm it. If you invite someone who isn't on the site, we email them an invitation on your behalf and keep their email address only until they answer or the invitation expires (30 days).

Notifications: a record, shown only in your own dashboard (or, for a page, to its admins), of things that need your attention and recent activity on your profile or page, such as a request to answer or an event that went live. We don't email these.

If you report something or email us: your report or message (including any feedback or suggestions you send us) and your contact details, and, for copyright (DMCA) notices, the information our Terms require (such as your signature, the work and material involved, and your good-faith and accuracy statements).

Cookies and browser storage: sign-in cookies, which are strictly necessary for the site to work, keep you signed in and briefly remember where to return you after you sign in. A few preferences are kept only in your own browser (day or night view, whether you've seen the "add to home screen" tip, and map settings). We don't use advertising cookies.

Marketing Analysis by Third Parties. We may use third-party web analytics services (such as those of Google or Mapbox) to collect and analyze usage information through cookies and similar tools; engage in auditing, research, or reporting; assist with fraud prevention; try to locate the same unique users across multiple browsers or devices to better tailor services and features; and provide certain features to our users. Any information disclosed to us will be in the form of aggregate data that does not describe or identify an individual customer or Site user. To learn more about how Google Analytics uses information from sites or apps using Google’s services, please visit this website. Mapbox map also stores its own ID and usage data in the visitor's browser. For more information on Mapbox’s services and privacy uses/policies, please visit this website.

How we use it

To run the site and its features; to show the profiles, pages, and events you choose to publish; to promote Colorado Creators by featuring published content in our emails and social posts about the site, as described in the content license in our Terms; to send emails you need (sign-in links, confirmations, approval notices, collaboration request notices, and notice of important changes to our Terms or this policy); to review submissions, prevent spam and abuse, and keep people safe; to protect the security of the site and accounts; to enforce our Terms and Community Guidelines, including moderating content, recording moderation decisions, and suspending or closing accounts; to handle copyright complaints and act against repeat infringers under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act; to comply with legal obligations and resolve disputes; and to respond to you. We don't add anyone to a marketing list without their consent. Any non-transactional email we send will include an easy way to unsubscribe, consistent with the federal CAN-SPAM Act.

What's public and what's not

Public: profiles, business pages, organization pages, and events, once they're published, and published content may also appear in our emails and social posts promoting the site. Sponsored spotlight items are labeled "Sponsored by" with the sponsor's name. Never public: your email address, sign-in details, the date you agreed to the Terms, event submitters' contact details, your favorites, saved searches, and Updates, and anyone's private address. Your name and email address are shared with another creator only if you accept their collaboration request (or they accept yours); declined or unanswered requests aren't shared.

We don't sell or rent personal information, and we don't share it for advertising, including targeted advertising. Sponsors of spotlight items don't receive your personal information, since no purchases or payments currently happen on the site. We share it only with:

Service providers that run the site for us, acting as processors on our behalf under contracts that limit their use of the information to providing services to us. Currently our service providers include but may not be limited to: Vercel (hosting), Supabase (database, sign-in, and file storage), SendGrid by Twilio (email), Cloudflare (spam checks on our forms), Mapbox (the map and address lookup), Vimeo and YouTube (embedded videos, loaded in privacy-enhanced modes), Help Scout (customer support), Google Analytics (measuring how the site is used), and Google Workspace (our team inbox). If you choose to sign in with Google or LinkedIn, that company also receives information about your sign-in, under its own privacy policies.
Other people, as the features describe: for example, when a collaboration request is accepted, we share each person's name and email address with the other; and if we receive a copyright (DMCA) notice about material you posted, we may forward that notice to you as the person who posted the challenged material.
When the law requires it, such as to comply with a law, subpoena, or other legal process; to enforce our Terms and Community Guidelines; or to protect the rights, safety, and property of people, LoCo Plus, or the site.
If LoCo Plus's business changes hands, such as through a merger, sale of assets, or other transfer of all or part of our business, the successor entity, whose use of your information remains subject to this policy.

How long we keep it

The amount of time we keep your account and content depends on your interactions or relationship with us. We generally keep your account and content until you delete them or ask us to. When a creator deletes their profile, its photos and videos are deleted with it. Collaboration request text is deleted 90 days after it's sent; the record of who sent a request to whom and the outcome is kept as a safety record for as long as reasonably necessary for safety, enforcement of our Terms and Community Guidelines, and legal purposes. Records of moderation decisions and emails we sent are kept for as long as reasonably needed for safety, troubleshooting, and enforcement of our Terms. Server logs are kept by our providers for a short period. Saved event drafts are deleted after being untouched for 90 days, dashboard activity after 90 days, and unanswered project invitations, with their email addresses, after 30 days.

We keep personal information no longer than is reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy. After you delete content or your account, we may keep limited copies as needed to comply with the law, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, and maintain backups for a limited time, and content that others have already shared may remain. If we close or suspend an account under our Terms, we keep or delete its content as described in this section.

Your choices and rights

Edit, unpublish, or delete your creator profile at any time from your settings; deleting it deletes your account too (unless you also manage an organization). If your profile is on hold, you may ask us to delete it.
Remove favorites and saved searches yourself.
Ask us to see, correct, or delete your information, to obtain a portable copy of your information, or to delete your account, at hello@coloradocreators.com. You may also opt out of the sale of your personal information, targeted advertising, and profiling, although we don't engage in any of these. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request. We'll respond within 45 days, which may be extended by an additional 45 days where reasonably necessary, as the law allows.
Colorado residents may have rights under the Colorado Privacy Act, including the rights to access, correct, and delete your personal data, to obtain a portable copy of it, and to opt out of the sale of personal data, targeted advertising, and profiling. We honor these requests regardless of whether the Colorado Privacy Act applies to us. If we decline to act on your request, you may appeal our decision by emailing hello@coloradocreators.com, and if your appeal is denied, you may contact the Colorado Attorney General. We won't discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights. We also honor universal opt-out signals, such as Global Privacy Control, although we don't sell personal data or engage in targeted advertising.

Children

Anyone may browse the site without an account, but you must be 18 or older to create an account, submit an event, or join a list. The site is not directed to children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn someone under 18 has an account, we'll delete the account and its associated information. If you're a parent or guardian and believe your child has given us personal information, please contact us at hello@coloradocreators.com.

Security

We use reasonable measures to protect your information, including encrypted connections, access controls on our database (people can change only their own data), and other administrative and technical safeguards. No system is perfectly secure. Sign-in uses one-time links or codes sent to your email, or your Google or LinkedIn account, so please keep those accounts secure; anyone who can use them can sign in as you. If you think someone has used your account without permission, tell us right away at hello@coloradocreators.com. If a security breach affects your personal information, we'll notify affected individuals as required by applicable law, including Colorado's data-breach notification law (C.R.S. § 6-1-716).

Changes to this policy

If we make material changes, we'll email account holders and post the new effective date here at least thirty (30) days before they take effect. Other changes take effect when we post them here. If you keep using the site after the new effective date, you accept the updated policy.
