--- title: "Privacy · 9715" description: "What 9715 collects and what it doesn't. Optional accounts hold only your name, email and saved spots; usage analytics; no ads, no cross-site tracking, and location never leaves your phone." canonical: https://9715.ae/privacy/ --- Legal # Privacy Last updated 10 October 2026 ## The short version 9715 is a restaurant review site run by a small group of friends. There is no advertising, we do not sell anything, and we do not sell data. You can read everything without an account. If you **create one**, we hold your name, your email address and the spots you save, so your shortlist follows you between the website and the app. You can delete the account, and everything in it, yourself at any time. Your location stays on your phone. The **website and the apps** record how they are used — which pages and reviews are opened, what is searched for, saved and shared — so we can see what is worth building and writing next. You can switch that off on the website below. Like every website, ours also has ordinary request logs. **What changed on 27 September 2026.** We started using PostHog for usage analytics on the website and in the iOS and Android apps, and stopped using MonoBlock's page-view counter. Details are under Usage analytics below. **What changed on 9 October 2026.** The website and the iOS app now also send the same page views, screens and usage events to MonoBlock Analytics, our own analytics service, and the website counts page views with Rybbit. All are described under Usage analytics below. **What changed on 10 October 2026.** MonoBlock Analytics on the website now loads from 9715.ae itself and no longer waits for PostHog. Because it sets no cookie and keeps no IP address, it no longer switches off for Do Not Track; the switch below still turns it off. ## Accounts Accounts are optional and exist for one thing: keeping your saved spots in sync across devices. Signing up asks for three things — your **name**, your **email address** and a **password**. **What we store.** Your name and email, a securely hashed version of your password (we never see or store the password itself), the list of reviews you have saved and when you saved each one, and the dates you created the account and last signed in. Accounts are handled by Supabase, which keeps this data on our behalf. **Emails.** We email you only to send a one-time code — to confirm your address when you sign up, or to reset a forgotten password. There is no newsletter and no marketing email, and your address is never shared or sold. **How it is used.** Only to sign you in and show you your saved list. Saved spots are not used to profile you or to target anything at you, and they are not visible to anyone else. **Deleting your account.** In the app go to Settings, and on the website open your account page; both have a Delete account button. It removes your account and your saved list immediately and permanently. Signing out of the app also clears the saved list from that phone. ## Usage analytics The website and both apps send usage events to [PostHog](https://posthog.com/privacy), hosted in the EU. An event is a short note of something done in the product — a page or screen viewed, a review opened, saved or shared, a search (the words typed, which are about food, not you), a filter chosen, a tab tapped, a link to Google Maps followed — with the time, the device type, operating system, app or browser version, and the approximate country and city PostHog works out from the IP address. The IP address itself is not kept. Each browser or app install gets a random identifier so the events of one visit, and of later visits, can be grouped together. On the website it is kept in your browser's local storage, not in a cookie. If you are signed in, events are also tied to your account's internal ID — never your name or email address — so the same person counts once across the website and the app. **Error reports.** When something breaks — the app crashes, or a page fails to load — a short error report goes to PostHog too: what went wrong and where in our code, with the device, operating system and app or browser version, tied to the same random identifier. It holds no review text you typed, no location and no password, and we use it only to find and fix bugs. We use this only to understand how 9715 is used and to decide what to improve. It is not used for advertising, not combined with data from other sites, not sold, and there is no session recording. The apps still use no advertising identifier. **MonoBlock Analytics (iOS app).** The iOS app also sends the same usage events to MonoBlock Analytics, an analytics service run by MonoBlock, the studio behind 9715. Each event carries the app version, device type, operating system, language and time zone, a random identifier for the install (replaced when you sign out) and, if you are signed in, your account's internal ID. The IP address is not stored. **Switching it off.** On the website, use the switch below, which stops both PostHog and MonoBlock Analytics. PostHog also sends nothing if your browser has Do Not Track turned on; MonoBlock Analytics, which sets no cookie and keeps no IP address, still counts the visit unless you use the switch. ## The apps The iOS and Android apps have no advertising software and do not use an advertising identifier. They send the usage analytics and error reports described above; there is no in-app switch, and uninstalling the app stops it. You can ask us to delete the usage data tied to your device or account by writing to the address below. **Location.** If you tap "Near me", the app asks for approximate location. It uses that location on your device to work out how far each restaurant is from you, and it is never transmitted to us or to anyone else. Nothing is stored: turn the sort off and it is gone. You can refuse, and every other part of the app still works. **Saved reviews.** Saving a review needs an account, and your saved list is kept in it (see above) so it appears on the website and your other devices. Both apps also keep a copy on your phone so the Saved tab works with no signal; signing out removes it. **Caches.** Reviews and photos you have already opened are kept on the device so they stay readable offline. You can clear the image cache from the About screen, and uninstalling the app removes everything. **What leaves your phone.** Reading reviews means fetching them from 9715.ae, which sees the request the way any web server would. On Android, the map on a review page loads tiles from OpenStreetMap, so their servers receive your IP address when a map is drawn. ## The website **Request logs.** The site runs on Cloudflare, which handles every request and keeps standard logs — IP address, browser and device string, the page asked for, and the time. This is how the web works; we use it to keep the site up and to spot abuse, not to build a profile of you. **Analytics.** Once a page has loaded, the website loads PostHog's script to send the usage events described above. It sets no cookie. **Page-view counts.** Every page also loads [Rybbit](https://rybbit.com/privacy)'s script, which counts page views and visits. It sets no cookie and does not store your IP address. **MonoBlock Analytics (website).** Unless you have opted out above, every page also loads MonoBlock Analytics' script, served from 9715.ae, which records page views and the same usage events PostHog receives and passes them, through 9715.ae, to MonoBlock Analytics. It sets no cookie and stores nothing in your browser (apart from remembering the switch above, if you use it), and it does not keep your IP address: visitors are counted with a code that changes every day, so one visit can't be linked to the next. **Hosting analytics.** The site is built and published with Lovable, and every page also loads Lovable's built-in analytics script ( /~flock.js ), which reports page views through 9715.ae itself. To group the pages of one visit together it sets a first-party cookie named session-id , holding a random identifier, which expires after 30 minutes. **Maps.** The map on each review page and the map of every reviewed spot are drawn by Google Maps. When one loads, your browser fetches it from Google, which receives your IP address under [Google's privacy policy](https://policies.google.com/privacy). **Cookies.** We set no advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. The only cookie every reader gets is the 30-minute visit cookie from the hosting analytics above. If you sign in, your browser also stores a sign-in session so you stay signed in; signing out removes it. There are no comments, no newsletter, and no contact form. The only way we hold your name or email address is if you create an account. ## Who else is involved We keep the list of third parties as short as we can. Today it is: Cloudflare (hosting), Supabase (the database the reviews live in, and where accounts and saved lists are kept), PostHog (usage analytics, in the EU), MonoBlock Analytics (usage analytics, run by MonoBlock on Cloudflare), Rybbit (page-view counts), Lovable (the platform the site is built and published with, and its built-in analytics), Google Maps (maps on the website), and OpenStreetMap (maps in the Android app). If you install an app, Apple or Google handles that download under their own privacy policies, and we receive only the aggregate figures their consoles show every developer. ## Children 9715 is a restaurant guide written for adults. It is not directed at children and we do not knowingly collect anything from them. ## Your rights If you have an account you can delete it yourself, at any time, from the app or the website, and it is gone at once. You can also ask us for a copy of what we hold about you, or ask us to correct or delete it, by writing to the address below. Without an account there is almost never anything of yours for us to hand over — it is on your own device, and uninstalling removes it. ## Changes If this policy changes we will update the date at the top of the page. If a change is significant — if we ever start collecting something we do not collect today — we will say so plainly rather than quietly editing a line. ## Contact Questions about any of this go to [hi@9715.ae](mailto:hi@9715.ae).
