WhereToFun SG ("we", "us", or "our") operates the website wheretofun.sg (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our Site. Please read this policy carefully. If you disagree with its terms, please stop using the Site.
We comply with the Singapore Personal Data Protection Act 2012 (PDPA) and, where applicable, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

1.3 Event Data — Third-Party API Sources
WhereToFun SG is an event aggregator. We do not scrape or crawl individual publisher or event-organiser websites. All event listings displayed on the Site are sourced exclusively from the following licensed third-party APIs:
Ticketmaster Discovery API — ticketed concerts, shows, and live events in Singapore. Use governed by Ticketmaster's API terms.
SerpApi (Google Events) — aggregated event listings returned by Google's public Events index, accessed via SerpApi's licensed API service. We query SerpApi; we do not access any individual publisher website directly.
Viator Partner API — tours, activities, and experiences available for booking. Use governed by Viator's partner programme terms.
Unsplash API — fallback images displayed under Unsplash's free commercial licence. Photographer attribution is available on request.
Event images displayed alongside listings may be sourced from the above APIs or fetched as publicly accessible OpenGraph preview images from URLs returned by those APIs. We do not store these images on our own servers; they are referenced directly from their original sources.
If you click affiliate links, those platforms (Viator) may share limited referral data with us for commission-tracking purposes only.

Affiliate relationships do not influence which events we feature or the order in which they appear. We surface events based on relevance and date, not commission rates.
