Roadhouse Magazine Privacy Policy
Roadhouse Magazine respects your privacy. This policy explains how we handle information at www.roadhousemag.com.
Who We Are & What We Collect
We are a music and culture publication based in Chicago. We collect information when you interact with us:
Voluntary Info: Your name and email when you sign up for our newsletter, submit a pitch, or contact us at hello@roadhousemag.com.
Comments: When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comments form, plus the visitor’s IP address and browser info to help with spam detection.
Media: If you upload images to the site, please avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as other visitors can potentially download and extract that info.
Cookies & Tracking
We use cookies to make your experience smoother.
If you leave a comment, you can opt-in to saving your name and email in cookies so you don't have to re-type them next time.
We use basic analytics to see which articles are popular.
Embedded Content: Articles on this site may include embedded content (like YouTube videos or Spotify players). These behave exactly as if you visited the other website directly and may collect data or use their own cookies.
How Long We Keep Your Data
Comments: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are kept indefinitely so we can recognize you in the future.
Newsletter/Contact: We keep your email info as long as you are a subscriber. You can unsubscribe at any time.
Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have left comments or subscribed to our list, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold. This does not include data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where Your Data Goes
We don't sell your data. However, visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service, and your IP address is included in password reset emails if you have an account.
