Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 14, 2026

1. Overview

My Local Drive-In ("we", "us", or "our") operates a directory app that aggregates publicly available showtime, schedule, and location information from participating drive-in theaters. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. We do not process ticket purchases or payments on this app — all ticketing transactions occur on the external drive-in's own platform.

2. Information We Collect

Information you provide: If you create an account, we collect your email address and a password. If you contact us through our contact form, we collect the name and message you submit.

Information collected automatically: We may collect approximate location (only when you grant permission), device identifiers, and usage data such as pages viewed and features used, to improve the app's performance and relevance.

Aggregated directory data: Showtimes, schedules, and theater details are fetched from public endpoints of participating drive-in apps and cached to display in this directory.

3. How We Use Information

  • To display nearby drive-ins and showtimes relevant to you.
  • To operate, maintain, and improve the app's features.
  • To respond to your inquiries and support requests.
  • To monitor for abuse and protect the security of the app.

4. Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with service providers who help us operate the app, or when required by law. When you tap a "Get Tickets" link, you are redirected to the external drive-in's platform, which is governed by its own privacy policy.

5. Your Choices

You may decline location permission at any time through your device settings. You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information by contacting us through the Contact page.

6. Data Retention

We retain account information for as long as your account is active. Aggregated directory data is refreshed on a scheduled basis and replaced with the latest information from source drive-ins.

7. Children's Privacy

The app is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will reflect the date of the latest revision above. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
