Welcome to Nostalgie New York ("we", "us", or "our"). We operate an internet radio station accessible at nostalgieny.com and through our mobile application "Nostalgie - New York". We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have regarding your data.

We may collect the following categories of information when you use our website or app:

• Contact information — your name and email address when you submit our contact form, song request form, or show rating form.
• Song request details — artist name, song title, and any optional message you choose to include in a song request.
• Show ratings and feedback — the star rating and optional comment you submit for a show episode.
• Technical data — standard server log information such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited, collected automatically when you access our website.
• App usage data — anonymised usage statistics collected by the app stores (Apple App Store, Google Play, Amazon) under their own privacy policies.

We do not collect payment information, location data beyond country level, or any sensitive personal information.

The information we collect is used solely for the following purposes:

• To respond to your messages and enquiries sent through our contact form.
• To process and fulfil song requests — we may send you an email notification when your requested song has been played.
• To pass show ratings and feedback to the relevant show host so they can improve their programmes.

We will never use your information for unsolicited marketing without your explicit consent.

We use a small number of trusted third-party services to operate our station. Each of these services has their own privacy policy:

• EmailJS — used to transmit contact form and song request submissions. Data is processed under EmailJS's privacy policy.

• Radio Directories — our station is listed on MyTuner, OnlineRadioBox, Radionet, FMradiofree, Onestopradio, Streema, and USradio. Each operates independently under their own policies.

Our website uses only essential technical cookies required to make the website function. We do not use tracking cookies, analytics cookies, or advertising cookies. Embedded third-party widgets (such as the radio player) may set their own cookies governed by their providers' policies.

You can configure your browser to block or delete cookies. Blocking essential cookies may affect the functionality of certain features on our website.

• Contact form and song request submissions are retained in our email system and reviewed regularly. We delete messages that are no longer needed.
• Show ratings and feedback are passed directly to show hosts and are not stored by us indefinitely.
