CoMo Events, effective October 18, 2026, updated October 20, 2026

CoMo Events is a free community app made by an individual developer in Columbia, Missouri. We run no servers, use no analytics, show no ads, and include no third-party tracking SDKs.

What the app uses

• Location. If you allow it, your location is used only to show where you are on the map and to center it. It is processed on your device and never sent anywhere.
• Events feed. The app downloads a public list of events from GitHub (github.com/xenificity/comoevents). That request carries no personal information beyond what any web download does (your IP address, seen by GitHub).
• Event links, images and directions. Opening tickets, event pages, venue images or directions sends you to that venue's site, the image host, or Apple Maps, which have their own policies.

Profiles and Sign in with Apple

Signing in is optional. If you sign in with Apple, the app stores your profile (display name, interests, who you usually go out with, and the ids of events you saved) in your own private iCloud database through Apple's CloudKit. Only you and your devices can read it; the developer has no access to it. Apple shares with the app only an anonymous user identifier and, on first sign in, the name you choose to share. We do not request or store your email address.

You can delete this data at any time from the Profile tab ("Delete my profile"), which removes it from your iCloud and from the device. You can also stop using Sign in with Apple for this app in your Apple ID settings.

What we collect

Only what you choose to publish to other users. Three optional features write to a shared (public) CloudKit database that the developer can read:

• Community posts. When you post an event, the event details you type, your chosen display name and an anonymous iCloud user identifier are stored so the post can be shown to everyone, moderated, reported and blocked.
• Attendance. Tapping Going, I'm here or Went stores that choice with the event id and your anonymous user identifier, so events can show how many people are going. No location is read or stored.
• Usage count. The app and the web app store one anonymous "install" record each (a random id, the platform, the app version and two dates) so everyone can see how many people use CoMo Events. It is not linked to you, your device or your location.
• Friends. If you turn on Friends, a 6-letter code and your display name are stored, plus the ids of events you saved or are attending if you switch sharing on. Only people who have your code can see them.

Reports you file (reason and your anonymous identifier) are stored so a moderator can act on them. Nothing is used for advertising, analytics or tracking, and nothing is shared with third parties. Delete profile in the Profile tab removes your profile; removing a post or turning off Friends removes those records. Contact picks for invitations stay on your phone.

Children

The app lists public community events, some at bars and breweries, and is rated accordingly. It is not directed at children under 13.
