Beathive

Privacy Policy

Last updated 21 July 2026

Beathive is an app for finding beatbox events, buying tickets and talking to the scene. This page explains what personal data we handle, why, and what you can do about it.

Who we are

Beathive is run by David Feliers, sole trader, Orangestraat 55, 2060 Antwerp, Belgium, enterprise number BE 0642.650.239. We are the controller of the personal data described here. You can reach us at davidfeliers@tsuruta.io.

What we collect

Your account

Your email address. We sign you in with a one-time code sent to it, so we never ask for or store a password.

Your profile

What you choose to add: display name, username, bio, city, country, profile picture and any social links. Your profile is public inside the app.

What you post

Posts, replies, GIFs you pick, likes, the channels you follow, events you create, and ratings and reviews you leave for organizers. Posts and replies are public. You can hide your activity from your public profile in Settings.

Accounts you block

If you block someone we store that, so we can keep the two of you apart. Only you can see your list, and the person you blocked is never told. Unblocking deletes the record.

Tickets and orders

Which events you buy or RSVP to, the ticket type, quantity, amount, currency, order status, your ticket codes and whether a ticket was checked in.

Your device and app settings

A push notification token if you allow notifications, plus your language, theme and app icon choice so the app looks the same next time.

Crash reports

When the app crashes, it sends us a crash report. It contains your device model, its operating system version, the version of Beathive you are running, and the stack trace: the technical trail of what the code was doing when it broke. We use it only to fix crashes. It is never used to advertise to you or to build a profile of you.

Support messages

Whatever you write in the support form, so we can answer it.

Approximate location

Only if you allow it, and only to work out which country's events to show you first. Your coordinates are turned into a country name by a geocoding service: your device's own operating system on iOS and Android, or BigDataCloud on the web. We never receive your coordinates and we do not store them. Deny the permission and the app works the same, it just asks you to pick a country.

Advertising

Beathive shows ads in the feed and inside threads. They are served by Google AdMob (Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4). Google is a separate controller for what it does with this data, under its privacy policy. The web version of Beathive shows no ads at all.

To show an ad, AdMob receives your device's advertising identifier (the IDFA on iOS, the Advertising ID on Android), your IP address, coarse device information and whether you saw or tapped the ad. The advertising identifier can be used to recognise your device across other apps and websites, which is what makes an ad personalised.

Before any ad loads we ask your permission through Google's own consent form, and on iOS the system asks you separately whether Beathive may track you. Say no and you still get ads, they are simply not personalised. On iOS you can change that answer at any time under Settings, Privacy and Security, Tracking; on Android you can reset or delete the Advertising ID in the system settings.

What we do not do

Why we are allowed to use it

Who else sees your data

Event organizers

When you buy a ticket or RSVP, the organizer of that event and the volunteers they appoint can see your name, username, profile picture, email address, what you bought and whether you have checked in. They need it to run the door. They are separate controllers for what they do with it, and they may only use it to run that event.

Other people using Beathive

Your profile, posts, replies and the reviews you leave are visible to anyone in the app.

Companies that work for us

Payments

Stripe processes every payment. Card details go straight to Stripe and never reach us: we only see the amount, the currency and whether it worked. Organizers who sell tickets get a Stripe account and Stripe collects the identity and bank details it needs by law to pay them. Stripe handles that data as its own controller, under its privacy policy.

Where your data lives

Some of the companies above are established outside the European Economic Area, mainly in the United States. Where data leaves the EEA it is covered by the European Commission's standard contractual clauses, or by an adequacy decision.

How long we keep it

You can delete your account yourself in Settings, under My account. It always goes through: we never ask you to email us first. It removes your profile, your posts and replies, and the photos you uploaded. Tickets you still hold stop working, so refund them before you delete if you want the money back. If you organize an event that has not happened yet, it is cancelled and everyone who bought a ticket is refunded automatically. Your orders and invoices stay, detached from you and no longer carrying your name, for the seven years the law requires.

Your rights

You can ask us for a copy of your data, correct it, delete it, take it elsewhere, restrict what we do with it, or object to it. Email davidfeliers@tsuruta.io and we will answer within one month. If you are unhappy with how we handled it you can complain to the Belgian Data Protection Authority, gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit.be.

Children

Beathive is not for anyone under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has an account, email us and we will remove it.

Changes

If we change something that matters we will update the date at the top and tell you in the app before it takes effect.
