6. Data Storage and Security
Your data is stored on secure servers. We use industry-standard security practices including encrypted data transmission (HTTPS), hashed password storage, and access controls to protect your information. While we take reasonable steps to protect your data, no system is completely secure and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, your event data, guest lists, and personal information are removed from our systems within 30 days.
7. Cookies and Local Storage
We use browser local storage and session storage to save your preferences, session authentication tokens, and application state (such as which sections of your event dashboard are open). We do not use third-party advertising cookies. You can clear stored data at any time via your browser settings.
8. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights under applicable data protection law including:
- The right to access the personal data we hold about you.
- The right to correct inaccurate data.
- The right to request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten").
- The right to restrict or object to processing.
- The right to data portability.
To exercise any of these rights, email [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days.
9. Children's Privacy
The Service is intended for users aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, contact us and we will delete it promptly.
10. Third-Party Links
The Service may contain links to third-party websites (for example, mapping services for venue directions). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to review their privacy policies.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by updating the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, by email or in-app notice. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
