Only what your listing needs
Your profile is a stage name, your craft, services, region, and the links you choose to share. We don't ask for anything a public listing doesn't use — no legal name required.
Kia haumaru, e te kaiwhakaari · Performer security
Your stage, on your terms.
As a performer you put yourself out there — your safety shouldn't be the price. Local Drag is built to protect your identity, your contact details, and your control over what the world sees. Here's exactly how.
Privacy by default
You control what's public
Your listing shows only what you choose to share. Personal contact details stay private — never on your public profile.
Secure by design
Your account, locked down
Encrypted sessions, permission checks on every action, and human verification that keeps spam and impersonators out.
Iti te kohi · Minimal data
We hold as little of you as possible.
The less we keep, the less there is to ever expose. Your profile is a public stage you control — not a file we build on you behind the scenes.
We never sell your profile data
Your performer profile data is never sold. We use analytics to understand how the directory is used, and may use tracking for remarketing — but your data isn't a product we trade.
Your contact email stays private
Adding a contact email is optional, and when you do it's never shown publicly. Enquiries reach you without your address being exposed to the people messaging.
Enquiries come straight to you
Booking enquiries are delivered directly to you, the performer. We pass the message along — we're not a middle layer mining your conversations.
What we hold
- Stage name & pronouns
- Your craft, styles & services
- Region you perform in
- Links you choose to add
- Contact email (optional, kept private)
What we never collect
- Your legal name or physical address
- Anything more than your listing needs
- Private contact details shown publicly
Te haumarutanga · Platform security
Your profile, guarded at every layer.
From the login cookie to your photos, access is locked down and checked — so the only person running your stage is you. These protections work quietly behind every page.
Your sign-in stays encrypted
You stay signed in through an encrypted, http-only cookie. The actual access tokens live server-side — never exposed to the browser or to scripts.
Only you can edit your profile
Every request is authorised against explicit policies using Amazon Verified Permissions, so no one else can edit your listing or reach controls that aren't theirs.
Spam kept out of your inbox
Public enquiry forms are screened with Cloudflare Turnstile, blocking bots and bulk spam before a message ever reaches you — no puzzles or tracking required.
Encrypted in transit
Every page and API call is served only over encrypted HTTPS, so your details are protected on the way between you and the platform.
Your photos, access-controlled
Profile images run on Amazon Web Services storage with locked-down access, served through short-lived signed links rather than open public URLs.
Verified before it's trusted
Contact emails on a profile are confirmed through a verification link, so enquiries can only be routed to an address you've proven is yours.
Kei a koe · Your control
You decide what stays up.
Your profile is yours to run — change it, hide it, or remove it entirely, whenever you want. No emails to support, no waiting.
Edit or unpublish anytime
Your profile is yours. Update it, take it offline, or change what's shown whenever you like.
Delete for good
Deleting your account permanently removes your profile, identity information, roles and active sessions. It can't be undone — because it's truly gone.
Aligned with modern privacy
We handle personal information — collecting it consensually, using it only as described, and keeping it secure.
