Privacy Policy

Orinlabí ("we," "us," or "our") operates orinlabi.com and provides invitation-based music distribution services for independent African artists. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you interact with our platform.

We collect the following categories of information:

• Application data — when you apply for distribution: artist name, full name, email address, phone number, and release details (song title, genre, cover art, audio files).
• Contact form data — name, email address, and message content submitted via our contact page.
• Newsletter subscriptions — email address and subscription status.
• Artist portal data — your email address used to authenticate via magic-link login, and session data.
• Usage data — browser type, IP address, pages visited, and time on site, collected via cookies and server logs.

• To review your distribution application and communicate our decision
• To distribute approved music to streaming platforms on your behalf
• To send notifications about your application status and release progress
• To respond to enquiries submitted through our contact form
• To send newsletters and updates (only with your explicit consent)
• To maintain and improve our platform
• To comply with applicable legal obligations

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only in these circumstances:

• Distribution partners — release metadata (artist name, song title, release date, copyright information) is shared with licensed streaming platforms to fulfil distribution.
• Service providers — trusted third-party services (cloud storage, email delivery, authentication) that operate under confidentiality obligations and process data only on our behalf.
• Legal requirements — when required by law, court order, or to protect the rights and safety of Orinlabí or others.

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate and improve our website. You can manage your preferences via the consent banner on your first visit.

We use the following types of cookies:

• Strictly necessary — required for core functionality such as maintaining your artist portal session. These cannot be disabled.
• Analytics — help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. Only set with your consent.
• Preference — remember your choices (such as cookie consent) between visits.

You can manage or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect some features of the site.

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes in this policy or as required by law. If your application is not approved, we hold your data for up to 12 months in case you reapply. You may request deletion of your data at any time (subject to legal requirements).

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or port your personal data, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent for newsletter communications at any time.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at privacy@orinlabi.com.

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your information against unauthorised access, alteration, or disclosure. Access to personal data is restricted to personnel who require it to carry out their responsibilities.

Our platform is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with data, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. We will notify you of material changes by posting a notice on our website or by email. Continued use of our platform after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
