ShadeMe participates in affiliate programs. Our current active program is the TicketNetwork affiliate program, which we joined through the CJ Affiliate network. When you click a ticket link on this site and make a purchase, we may earn a commission, at no additional cost to you. We may join additional ticket marketplace programs over time and will update this page when we do.
We only link to tickets for the team, venue or event you are viewing, and our shade recommendations are generated by our sun/shade model — they are never influenced by commission rates. Affiliate links are labeled where they appear. This disclosure is provided in accordance with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255).
ShadeMe does not sell tickets and is not a party to any ticket transaction. See our Terms & Conditions for what that means for orders and refunds.
ShadeMe is designed to be privacy-light. The core shade tool runs in your browser and does not require an account. We do not ask for your name, email address, or payment information, and we do not sell personal information.
Cookies may be set by our analytics, our advertising partners and our affiliate partners. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Declining non-essential cookies will not break the shade tool.
We rely on: Open-Meteo (weather), TicketNetwork via CJ Affiliate (ticket affiliate links), Netlify (hosting), Google Analytics (analytics) and Google AdSense (advertising). Each operates under its own privacy policy; we encourage you to review theirs.
You can use the shade tool without clicking any ticket links, and you can block cookies in your browser. If you are in a region with privacy rights (for example under the EU/UK GDPR or the California Consumer Privacy Act), you may have the right to access, correct or delete data held about you, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. Because we hold no account data ourselves, most such requests concern our analytics or advertising partners — email us and we will help direct your request. See Contact & Support.
ShadeMe is a general-audience tool and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
ShadeMe is an independent tool. Team, league, school, venue and tournament names are used descriptively to identify venues. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by MLB, the NFL, the NCAA, the ATP/WTA/USTA, or any club, school, venue or tournament.
We may update this policy as the site and its partnerships change. The "Last updated" date above always reflects the current version.
