Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 29, 2026

Who we are

SoCalStrings is an independent, community-maintained guide to violin concerts, youth programs, and music resources across Southern California. It is not affiliated with any orchestra, conservatory, school, shop, or government body.

Information we collect

SoCalStrings is a static website. We do not operate user accounts, registration forms, or comment systems. The only personal information we receive is what you voluntarily send us when you email us at [email protected] — for example, to submit an event or correction.

Email contact

If you contact us by email, we may keep your message long enough to act on it — for example, to update a listing or acknowledge a correction. We do not sell or share email contact with third parties. We will not use your contact information to send unsolicited messages.

Analytics

SoCalStrings uses Plausible Analytics to understand which pages are viewed and how the site performs. Plausible is a cookieless, privacy-first analytics service that does not collect personal data, does not use cross-site tracking, does not build behavioral profiles, and does not share data with advertising networks. Aggregate page view counts are the only data collected. For details on how Plausible processes data, see Plausible's privacy policy.

Cookies

SoCalStrings does not set cookies of its own. If third-party services are embedded or linked on this site, those services may set their own cookies, subject to their own privacy policies.

External links

This site links to official pages for orchestras, conservatories, shops, and other organizations. SoCalStrings is not responsible for the privacy practices of those external sites. When you follow a link off this site, that organization's privacy policy applies.

Children

SoCalStrings is a general-audience reference site. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If you believe a child has contacted us, please let us know and we will delete that information.

Changes to this policy

If our data practices change materially, we will update this page and revise the "Last updated" date above.
