DJ Phase

Privacy

DJ Phase runs a newsletter and a separate music account system.

Newsletter

If you join the newsletter, we store your email address, signup time and consent to receive release news and updates. The administrator can export this list to send messages. You can unsubscribe using the link in a release email.

Music accounts

If you create an account, we store your username, email address, password hash and account creation time. Your password itself is not stored. We also store the version and time of your agreement to the music download terms. Your account lets you download full MP3 tracks after accepting those terms. We log the account, track and time for each download request, visible to the administrator. At registration you can choose whether to join the release newsletter. Leaving the optional box unticked keeps you out of campaigns. Existing newsletter subscriptions remain separate.

Password reset emails

When you request a reset, we send a one-time link using Postmark. The link expires after one hour. The site stores only a hash of the reset token; using the link changes your password and signs out existing account sessions.

Storage and access

Records are held in the website database and accessible to the administrator. Temporary hashed request information limits automated abuse.

Visitor counts

Visits to the main page are counted in daily totals shown privately to the administrator. To estimate distinct visitors each day, the site temporarily stores a one-way hash of the date, network address and browser identifier. Raw network addresses are not stored in these visitor statistics. Hashes are deleted after about 30 days; daily totals remain.

Cookies

The site does not use advertising or analytics cookies. A necessary session cookie supports forms, your cookie notice dismissal and music or admin login until your browser session ends. The cookie notice has a dismiss button; there are no optional cookies to accept.
