Privacy Notice – JoinMyWedding

This Privacy Notice is intended to describe the practices JoinMyWedding Inc. (“JMW”) follows in relation to the JoinMyWedding site (“Site”) with respect to the privacy of all individuals whose personal data is processed and/or stored on the Site.

First of all, please let JMW reassure you that JMW respects and observes relevant data privacy laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation of the European Union.

JMW is acting as data controller when processing your personal data. As the Site runs on cloud basis services, Google LLC is a data processor.

The Site is hosted on servers in Google Cloud Platform.

Categories of personal data: The personal data you provide on the Site or via e-mail to the JMW team are the following: name, address, phone number, e-mail address, photos, media, event details (which may contain personal data, e.g. food preferences), other wedding related personal data.

JMW does not intentionally collect any sensitive personal data from you via the Site. The Site’s intention is not to process such information.

Legal title - your consent: JMW relies on the following basis to legitimize the processing of your personal data: your voluntary consent.

The personal data you expressly provided with the intention to be public may be displayed on your Site profile. Other data requested of you from the JMW team is only used by JMW team to assist you with your wedding experience.

In order to allow JMW to assist you in the best possible way, by registering on the Site, you voluntary consent to that JMW processes – as data controller - the availability data (mobile phone number, e-mail address) that you provided JMW with for the purposes to connect you, in case you are Traveler, with the relevant Couples as your possible future host(s), and, in case you are Couple, to Travelers, and you agree that we share with them or their representative such information.

Also, you hereby voluntary consent to that JMW uses any photos or media that you share with us (e.g. upload to the Site) in association with the Event and your JMW experience for direct marketing purposes, including uploading such content to public social media sites (such as Facebook, JoinMyWedding Site, etc). Before sharing any personal information with JMW, you are responsible to ask necessary permission of affected persons.

The provision of your personal data to JMW is optional. However, if you do not provide all or part of your personal data, we may be unable to carry out the purposes for processing.

Your voluntary consent may be withdrawn at any time, by deleting your registration on the Site. Of course, if you ask JMW in the future to remove any provided media, JMW will do so. You are kindly reminded that in case you withdraw your consent, JMW ceases to be in a position to further assist you as provided for on the Site. Certain data may be kept in case applicable law requires so or on the basis of legitimate interest, if applicable.

JMW reserves the right to investigate and take appropriate legal action against anyone who, in JMW’s sole discretion, violates any provision of JMW or any privacy regulation, including without limitation, removing the offending content from the Service, suspending or terminating the account of such violators and reporting you to the law enforcement authorities.

Data transfer: Your data may also be shared with contracted partners of JMW in connection with the performance of the wedding experience. However, JMW will not transfer your personal data to third parties (other than contracted parties referred above) unless we have your permission or are required by law to do so. Should you not agree to any transfer of data for processing purposes, you may inform us on it in writing.

Data retention: Your personal data will be retained in compliance with privacy laws and regulations until you withdraw your consent or until you unregister on the Site. Your media content (e.g. photos) is an exception, which may be used longer, until you withdraw your consent, in which case, however, you shall reimburse the reasonable costs associated with your withdrawal. Your name and e-mail address will however be also retained following termination of our JMW relationship for a term of 2 years, based on our legitimate interest, for quality assurance purposes.
After the end of the data retention period, your personal data will be deleted.

Security: JMW is committed to making sure your personal data is secure. To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, JMW has technical and organizational measures to safeguard and secure your personal data. All JMW personnel and third parties JMW engages to process your personal data are obliged to respect your data’s confidentiality.
