Privacy Policy
This English text is a convenience translation. The legally binding version is the German Datenschutzerklärung.
We process personal data only to the extent necessary to provide WeddingTakt — a wedding-planning software. Below we inform you about the nature, scope and purpose of the processing and about your rights.
1. Controller
The controller within the meaning of the GDPR is:
Mikel Krasniqi
Höllgehau 10
86381 Krumbach (Schwaben)
Germany
Email: hello@weddingtakt.com
2. Hosting and server log files
We host WeddingTakt with the provider Hostinger, with servers located in the European Union (Germany). When you access the website, technically necessary access data (e.g. IP address, date and time, page accessed, browser type) are processed in server log files to ensure secure and stable operation and to prevent misuse. The legal basis is our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). These data are deleted after a short, operationally necessary period.
3. Registration and user account
To use WeddingTakt you create a user account. We process the data you provide (e.g. name, email address, password in encrypted form) as well as the project and planning data you create. The legal basis is performance of the contract or pre-contractual measures (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).
4. Sign-in with Google (single sign-on)
You may optionally sign in with your Google account. Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland) transmits to us the profile information required for sign-in (e.g. name, email address). The legal basis is performance of the contract or your consent (Art. 6(1)(b) and (a) GDPR).
5. Contract processing and payment (Stripe)
Paid services are processed via the payment service provider Stripe (Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd., 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Dublin, Ireland). When you pay, the required payment and transaction data are transmitted directly to Stripe and processed there. We do not store full payment data (e.g. card numbers) ourselves. The legal basis is performance of the contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). More information: stripe.com/privacy.
6. Contact form and email
If you contact us via the contact form or by email, we process your details (e.g. name, email address, message) to handle your request and any follow-up questions. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in answering enquiries or pre-contractual measures (Art. 6(1)(f) and (b) GDPR). Emails are sent via our email provider (Hostinger).
7. Cookies
We use technically necessary cookies required for operation and sign-in (legal basis: Section 25(2) TDDDG together with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Optional cookies (in particular for web analytics) are only set with your consent (Section 25(1) TDDDG, Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can withdraw your consent at any time via the cookie settings.
8. Web analytics with Google Analytics
With your consent we use Google Analytics, a web analytics service of Google Ireland Limited, to evaluate and improve the use of the website. Analytics cookies are only set and data only transmitted to Google after your consent; until then analytics is disabled by default via Google Consent Mode. The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you can withdraw at any time with effect for the future.
9. Fonts
The fonts used on our pages are served locally from our own server (self-hosted). No connection to Google servers and no transfer of your IP address to third parties takes place. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in an appealing presentation (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
10. Recipients and processing on our behalf
To provide our services we use carefully selected providers (in particular hosting/Hostinger, payment/Stripe, sign-in and analytics/Google) who process personal data on our behalf. Where required, data processing agreements pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR are in place with these providers.
11. Transfer to third countries
Where data are transferred to providers outside the EU/EEA (e.g. to the USA), this is done on the basis of appropriate safeguards, in particular the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (Art. 46 GDPR) or an adequacy decision.
12. Storage period
We store personal data only for as long as necessary for the stated purposes or as required by statutory retention periods (e.g. under commercial and tax law). Afterwards the data are deleted or anonymised. We do not sell your data to third parties.
13. Your rights
You have the right of access (Art. 15), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20) and a right to object (Art. 21 GDPR). You may withdraw any consent given at any time with effect for the future. To exercise these rights, an email to hello@weddingtakt.com is sufficient.
14. Right to lodge a complaint
You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR), in particular in the Member State of your residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement.
15. Updates and changes
We reserve the right to amend this privacy policy to adapt it to changed legal requirements or changes to our services. The version published on this page from time to time applies.
Google Ads: optional conversion measurement
Only with your separate consent do we use Google Ads, provided by Google Ireland Limited, Ireland, to connect advertising clicks with verified trial starts or confirmed purchases. Google may receive IP address, browser information, ad-click identifiers, cookie or local-storage identifiers, time, event type, a pseudonymous identifier to prevent duplicate counting and, for purchases, amount and currency. We do not send names, email addresses, payment details or wedding and guest content for this purpose. Personalized advertising, remarketing and enhanced conversions are disabled. The legal basis is your consent under section 25(1) TDDDG and Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. Without that consent, the Google Ads service is not activated. You can change your choice at any time through cookie settings; the app remains usable. Google may also process data in the USA, subject to the safeguards described in the international transfers section. Your saved cookie choice lasts at most one year. Google’s privacy and cookie information explains the lifetimes of its identifiers and further retention details.
