Privacy Policy

• Account and profile data you provide: name, email, handle, city, crafts, rates, bio, links, images, work, credits, and similar.
• Waitlist data: name, email, craft, city, and any link you submit.
• Content and activity: posts, connections, messages, appreciations, and other actions on the Platform.
• Technical data: device, browser, IP address, approximate location, and usage data collected through cookies, local storage, and similar technologies.

You are responsible for the accuracy of what you provide and for ensuring you have the right to share any information about other people (for example, collaborators you credit).

We use information to:

• operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Platform;
• create and display profiles, work, credits, and search results;
• enable connections, messaging, and discovery;
• communicate with you, including about your waitlist status, account, and offers;

Crew is a professional, public-facing platform. Information you mark or leave as public (for example, your public profile, public work, and credits) is visible to anyone, including search engines, and may be copied, cached, or indexed by third parties outside our control. You control visibility through the public, connections, and invited settings; choose what to make public accordingly.

• Service providers who help us run the Platform (for example, hosting, storage, analytics, email, payments), under appropriate obligations.
• Other users, per your visibility settings.
• Legal and safety: where we believe it is required by law or necessary to protect rights, safety, or the integrity of the Platform.
• Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets.

We do not sell your personal data for money.

We use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember preferences, operate features, and understand usage. You can control these through your browser, but some features may not work without them.

We retain information for as long as needed to provide the Platform, comply with law, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. We may retain backups and records after account closure for a reasonable period.

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information. No system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You use the Platform at your own risk and are responsible for safeguarding your account.

You can review and update most profile information in your account. Subject to applicable law, including India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, you may request access to, correction of, or erasure of your personal data, and may withdraw consent. We will respond as required by law. Some information may be retained where we have a legal basis to do so.

The Platform is not intended for anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a minor has provided data, contact us and we will take appropriate steps.

We may process and store information in countries other than yours, including where our service providers operate. By using the Platform you consent to such transfers, subject to applicable law.

We may update this Policy at any time. Changes take effect when posted. Your continued use of the Platform means you accept the updated Policy.
