Privacy Policy – KPG Scene
Last updated: 14 October 2026
KPG Scene ("we", "us") is a website that lists DJs, producers and live acts who are on Koh Phangan or on their way there, and parties that take place on the island. This policy explains what information we collect, why, who can see it, and how to remove it.
We keep this short and in plain language. If anything is unclear, write to hello@kpgscene.com.
Who runs KPG Scene
KPG Scene is operated by Mazliah - Websites and Apps Developments, Tel Aviv, Israel. Contact: hello@kpgscene.com.
What we collect, and why
If you register as an artist (DJ, producer or live act)
| Information | Why we need it | Who sees it |
|---|---|---|
| Your full name, stage name, home country | To create your profile | The public sees your first name and the first letter of your surname (e.g. "Barak M") and your country. Your stage name and full name are not public: an organiser sees your stage name when they send you a request or get you through Match, and your full name when you answer them |
| Email address | To send you your personal link, approval status and date reminders | Only us |
| WhatsApp number | So we can contact you about bookings | Only us, until you answer an organiser – they then receive it so you can agree the gig. Never shown on the site |
| Instagram handle | So organisers can check you out once you answer them | Not shown on the site. Sent to an organiser only when you answer their request |
| Links to your mixes or music (SoundCloud, Mixcloud, YouTube, Spotify, Bandcamp, Apple Music) | So organisers can listen before booking | Public |
| Photo | Shown on your profile | Public |
| Genres, experience, bio, how you perform | Shown on your profile | Public |
| What you play on, gear, preferred time slots | So organisers and venues can see if you fit | Signed-in users who are not artists (organisers, venues and people planning a party) |
| The dates you are on Koh Phangan and available to play | So the list only shows people who are actually on the island | The public sees whether you are on the island now and, if you are coming later, your arrival date. Exact dates are used for Match and shown to you in your account |
| Where you are right now (Koh Phangan or elsewhere in Thailand) | So you are shown only on your Koh Phangan dates | Only us and the admin |
| What kind of gigs you are looking for (paid / exposure) | So we match you with the right parties | Signed-in users who are not artists (organisers, venues and people planning a party) |
| Your answer to "Why Koh Phangan" and any availability notes | To help us review applications | Only us |
If you send a booking request as an organiser or venue
You need an account. You give your name, WhatsApp number, e-mail, the venue, the date, time slots, budget and a message, and the party it is for – one of yours, or a new one saved as a draft that is not shown until you complete it. The request goes directly to the artist together with your name, WhatsApp and e-mail, so they can answer you. None of it is shown publicly. When an artist answers, you receive their full name, WhatsApp, e-mail and Instagram.
If you ask a venue to play there
When you tap "I want to play here" on a venue's page, or sign up through a venue's link, the venue receives your public profile, your message and your e-mail address so it can answer you, and sees you in its list of artists who asked. Through a venue's link this happens only once we approve your profile.
If you add a party to the events board
The party details you enter (name, venue, date, times, genres, flyer, description, entry price, links, line-up) are public. Your name, WhatsApp and email as organiser are not shown publicly; we use them to verify the listing and to contact you.
If you ask a venue to host your party
From a venue's page you can send that venue a request. It goes to that venue only, together with your name, WhatsApp and e-mail, so it can answer you; we keep a copy to help if something goes wrong. It is not posted on the site.
Automatically
Anonymous usage statistics of our own (see "Usage statistics" below – no cookies, no outside analytics service), and technical logs (IP address, browser type) that our hosting and e-mail providers keep for security and delivery. We do not use advertising trackers or third-party cookies.
What we do not do
- We do not sell your information.
- We do not show your e-mail, phone number or full name publicly. They are shared only as described above: between an organiser and an artist when a request is sent or answered.
- We do not send marketing emails. The only emails you receive are about your own registration, profile, reminders and bookings.
- We do not use your data to train AI systems.
Party listings imported from other sites
Part of the events board is filled automatically from public event pages, mainly phangan.events. For those listings we show the party name, venue, date, time, genre and flyer, with a link and credit to the original page. If you are the organiser of an imported party and want it changed or removed, use the "Claim it" button on the party or write to us.
Where your data is stored
Your data is stored with Supabase (database and image storage, servers in Singapore) and our site is hosted on Vercel. E-mails are sent through Resend and messages through Telegram. Payments are handled by Paddle, the merchant of record: Paddle collects your card or payment details, and we keep only your e-mail, what you bought, the amount and whether it was paid or refunded. Sign-in can use Google or Facebook. Each of these providers processes data only to provide their service to us. Your data may therefore be stored outside the country you live in.
How long we keep it
- Artist profiles: as long as your profile exists. A profile that has not been updated for 12 months may be archived.
- Booking requests and party listings: up to 24 months after the event date, for our records.
- If you remove your profile, we delete it, including your photo, within 30 days. Booking records that mention you are kept in anonymised form.
Your choices and rights
- See and edit everything on your profile through your personal link.
- Pause your profile by writing to us or from your personal link.
- Stop reminder emails with the link at the bottom of any reminder.
- Remove your profile with the "Remove my profile" button on your personal link, or by emailing us.
- Ask what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it: write to hello@kpgscene.com. We reply within 30 days.
If you are in the EU/EEA or the UK, these are your rights under the GDPR and you may also complain to your local data protection authority. If you are in Thailand, similar rights apply under the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA).
Children
KPG Scene is for adults. We do not knowingly accept registrations from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has registered, tell us and we will remove the profile.
Changes
If we change this policy in a way that matters, we will note the date at the top and, for registered artists, mention it in the next email we send you.

Usage statistics
We count how the site is used – pages opened, profiles and parties viewed, buttons tapped – to know what helps DJs, artists, organisers and venues. This works without cookies and without any outside analytics service. A visit is counted under a code that is made fresh every day from your connection and browser and cannot be turned back into who you are; your IP address is not stored. We never record the contents of forms or the private links sent to you. The records are deleted after 180 days.
Reviews
If an artist allows reviews and you booked them through KPG Scene, we e-mail you the day after the gig to ask how it went, with one reminder five days later. If you write a review, we keep your e-mail address with it (never shown) and publish your first name or your venue's name – your choice – with the stars, text and tags. The artist can hide it, and the admin can delete it. If you do not want to be asked, just ignore the e-mail.
Accounts
You can use KPG Scene without an account. If you sign in – with Google, Facebook or a code sent to your e-mail – we keep your name, e-mail address, profile picture (from Google or Facebook), language and notification choices, and link the profiles you have here (artist, venue, parties) to your account. We receive nothing else from Google or Facebook and never post anything for you. KPG Scene is part of the AstraTribe family: the same sign-in also works for other AstraTribe services, such as PsyJourney. You can change what we e-mail you about, and delete your account at any time from your account page ("Delete my account"); your profiles then lose the link to it, or are deleted too if you choose.
Tonight on Koh Phangan
If you sign up for the daily e-mail, we keep your e-mail address, your language and when you confirmed, only to send it. Each e-mail has a link to stop at once; we then stop sending and keep the address only as unsubscribed, so it is never added again by mistake. We count opens and link taps in total, not per person. The Telegram channel is run by Telegram; we do not see who follows it.
Contact form
When you write to us through the contact form, we keep your name, e-mail, topic and message to answer you, and we forward them to our own e-mail and Telegram. We delete them when they are no longer needed.
Telegram alerts
If you connect Telegram to your account, we keep your Telegram chat ID and which alerts you switched on, only to send them. Alerts always link to the site and never contain anyone's contact details. Turn them off at any time in your account.
