Kanart

Privacy

You can use Kanart without telling us anything. If you choose to sign in, we learn your email address and which shows you saved. That is the whole list.

Without an account

Nothing leaves your phone. Browsing, searching, filtering and saving all happen on the device. We do not have an account for you, so there is nothing for us to attach anything to.

Shows you save are stored on the phone itself. If you delete the app, they are gone, and we never had a copy.

Location

If you allow it, the app uses your location to show how far away each exhibition is and to sort by what is nearest. It is worked out on your device and never sent to us. We do not store it, we do not log it, and we could not tell you where you have been.

If you refuse, the app works. Distances simply are not shown, and the neighbourhood name does the same job.

If you sign in

Signing in is optional and exists for one reason: so your saves appear on your other phone.

What we then hold:

Your email address

So we can send you a sign-in code and know which saves are yours. There is no password — you type a code we email you. We do not ask for your name.

Which exhibitions you saved

The listing, when you first saved it, when you last changed it, and whether you removed it. Removals are kept as a fact, otherwise another phone would keep putting back something you deliberately deleted.

When your account was created

A row with no age cannot be reasoned about at all. That is the only timestamp we keep about you.

What we deliberately do not collect

• No analytics and no tracking. There is no analytics or crash-reporting service in the app at all.
• No record of what you looked at. Not the shows you opened, not what you searched for, not the filters you used. Only what you deliberately kept.
• No advertising, and no sale or sharing of anything. There is nobody to sell it to and no plan to have one.
• No name, no password, no phone number, no contacts, no photos.

Things your phone contacts directly

These are ordinary web requests your device makes, not data we collect — but you should know they happen, because those servers see your device's IP address the same way any website you visit does.

• Map tiles come from OpenFreeMap (tiles.openfreemap.org) when you open the map.
• Exhibition pictures load from each venue's own website. We do not host copies, so the venue's server is what your phone asks.
• Listings come from our database, hosted by Supabase in Singapore.

Where it is kept, and for how long

Accounts and saves are stored with Supabase, on servers in Singapore. We keep them until you delete your account, at which point they go — the account, the email address, every save and every removal, together in one step.

Two things outlast that step, neither of which we can look you up in: Supabase’s own routine backups of the whole database, which we never restore individual accounts from and which rotate on their own; and short-lived delivery logs kept by the servers that serve the app and by the provider that emails your sign-in code, as any server keeps.

Deleting everything

In the app: About → Your account → Delete account. One confirmation, done immediately, and it cannot be undone. Shows saved on your phone stay on your phone; delete the app to remove those too. The full details, including what to do if you no longer have the app.

Children

Kanart is for a general audience and we do not knowingly hold data about children. There is nothing in it aimed at them and nothing that profiles anybody.

Asking us

Write to hello@kanart.app. You can ask for a copy of what we hold, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. It is a short list, so this is a short conversation.

If this page ever changes in a way that matters, we will say so here and date it rather than quietly editing it.
