Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 12, 2026
1. Who We Are
Unne is currently operated by the Unne project and its founders, based in Finland. We are responsible for the processing of personal data described in this Privacy Policy. Contact: hi@unne.io
2. What Data We Collect
We collect only the data necessary to provide our service:
Account data — when you sign up, we collect your email address and your role selection (artist or venue). We also record whether you have agreed to our Terms of Service and whether you have opted in to marketing emails.
Profile data — depending on your role, you provide your name, a short bio or description, your city, your art type or venue type, and whether you are willing to travel (artists only). You also upload images of your artworks or venue space. Your profile and images are visible to other registered users when they browse the platform, so they can discover you for potential exhibitions.
Messages and communications — when you express interest in an exhibition and message another user, we store the messages you exchange, including any proposed exhibition dates and text you send, so the conversation is delivered to and available for both participants. We also generate in-app notifications about activity on your account (such as new messages or exhibition updates).
Usage data (with your consent) — if you opt in to analytics cookies, we use Google Analytics 4 to collect pseudonymized usage data such as page views, session duration, and general location at country level. This data does not personally identify you.
Anonymous usage data — we use Vercel Analytics to collect anonymous, aggregated usage data such as page views, visitor counts, and traffic sources. Vercel Analytics does not use cookies and does not collect personal identifiers. Visitors are identified by a temporary hash derived from the incoming request, which is automatically discarded after 24 hours. This data cannot be used to identify or re-identify individual users.
Technical data — our hosting infrastructure (Vercel, Supabase) processes your IP address and basic request data to deliver the service. This processing is strictly necessary and does not require consent.

4. Cookies
Essential cookies — Unne uses a session cookie managed by Supabase to keep you securely logged in. This cookie is strictly necessary for the service to function and does not require your consent. We also store your language preference in a cookie called locale so the interface appears in your chosen language when you return to the service.
| Cookie | Purpose | Expiry |
|---|---|---|
| supabase-auth-token | Maintains secure login session | Until logout or session cleared |
| locale | Stores language preference | Up to 1 year or until deleted |
Analytics cookies — With your explicit opt-in consent via our cookie banner, we use Google Analytics 4, which sets the following cookies:
| Cookie | Purpose | Expiry |
|---|---|---|
| _ga | Distinguishes users across sessions | 2 years |
| _gid | Distinguishes users within a 24-hour period | 24 hours |
These cookies are only set if you click "Accept all" or enable the analytics toggle in the cookie banner. You can change your preference at any time by clicking "Cookie settings" in the footer.
When analytics cookies are denied, Google Analytics operates in consent mode — it sends anonymous, cookieless measurement pings that do not store any data on your device.
Vercel Analytics — Vercel Analytics does not use cookies. It operates without storing any data on your device.
5. Data Sharing and Transfers
Supabase (database and authentication) — processes your account and profile data. Data is stored and processed in the EU (Ireland). Supabase Inc. is US-headquartered; Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) apply as an additional safeguard.
Google Analytics (usage analytics, if you consent) — processes anonymized usage data. Google may transfer analytics data to the US for processing. This transfer is protected by Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), which are legal safeguards required under EU law. IP anonymization is enabled.

MailerLite (email marketing) — if you opt in to marketing emails, we share your email address, name, role, language preference, and city with MailerLite to send product updates and newsletters. MailerLite processes this data on our behalf. Data is stored in the EU. MailerLite UAB is headquartered in Lithuania (EU), so no international data transfers apply.
Resend (transactional and notification email) — we use Resend to send all of our non-marketing service emails, including your one-time login code, your welcome email, profile-completion reminders, and notifications about activity relevant to you (for example, a new message or an exhibition update).
