Your privacy is important to us. Here's how we collect, use and protect your information.
Welcome to Podzay. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, share and protect information when you use Podzay.com and related services (the "Platform"). Where consent is required for optional analytics or advertising tracking, we request it separately through our cookie banner.
Podzay is an AI-powered podcast matching platform connecting podcast hosts and guests through matching, verified profiles, messaging and scheduling.
We may use service providers to operate and improve Podzay, including:
Podzay offers free-forever access to Founding Members. No payment details are required to register for that offer.
If you contact us about a previous payment, we may work with the relevant payment processor, such as Paddle, to resolve your request.
We use essential cookies to support sign-in, account security and core Platform functionality. Optional analytics and advertising technologies only run after you click Accept on our cookie consent banner. You may decline optional tracking while continuing to use essential Platform features.
| Tool | What it collects | Why we use it | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics (GA4) | Pages visited, device information and approximate location | Measure website usage | Google LLC |
| Meta Pixel | Pages visited, advertising interactions and a hashed email address when advanced matching is enabled | Measure and improve advertising performance | Meta Platforms Ireland Limited |
| Reddit Pixel | Pages visited and advertising interactions | Measure and improve advertising performance | Reddit, Inc. |
| PostHog | Page views and in-app clicks or interactions | Improve the product and understand feature usage | PostHog, Inc. |
If you accept optional tracking while logged in, Podzay's Meta Pixel may transmit a cryptographically hashed version of your account email address to Meta through its advanced matching functionality. Meta may use this information to match activity with Meta accounts for advertising measurement purposes.
Hashed email addresses are still treated as personal data. Hashing does not make the information anonymous. We disclose this sharing as part of our optional advertising tracking.
Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Reddit Pixel and PostHog optional tracking only run after you click Accept on the cookie banner. Essential cookies necessary to operate the Platform may run without optional-tracking consent.
You may withdraw your consent at any time. Use the Cookie settings link in our website footer to reopen the cookie banner and change your preferences. Withdrawing consent prevents future optional tracking but does not reverse processing that already occurred.
You may also restrict or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies may affect sign-in or other core functionality.
Some providers may process data outside your country. For questions regarding international processing or personal data, contact hello@podzay.com.
We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited information with service providers operating the Platform and, with your optional-tracking consent, with the analytics and advertising providers described in Section 5.
We may also disclose information when:
We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide the Platform, maintain an active account or meet legitimate legal, operational and security requirements.
You can request account deletion by contacting hello@podzay.com. We aim to process requests within 30 days, subject to applicable legal obligations.
We use safeguards designed to protect personal information, including:
Depending on applicable law, you may have the right to:
To exercise these rights, email hello@podzay.com.
Podzay is not intended for individuals under 16 years of age. We do not knowingly collect children's personal data. If you believe a child has provided information to us, contact hello@podzay.com.
If you live in the UK or European Economic Area, you may have additional rights under applicable data protection laws, including rights to access, rectify, erase, restrict processing and obtain data portability, as well as the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
We rely on your consent for optional analytics and advertising tracking. Other personal data processing may be necessary to deliver requested services, comply with legal obligations or pursue legitimate interests where permitted by law.
You may withdraw optional-tracking consent using the Cookie settings control described in Section 5.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Significant changes may be communicated by email or in-app notice. When new processing requires fresh consent, we will request it separately.
