Privacy Policy

We only collect what your invitation and RSVP need to work, and we never sell your data.

Who is responsible

StoryInvite is run by Codenomix AB (Swedish company reg. no. 559431-1499), which is the data controller. You can reach us at hello@storyinvite.se.

What data we handle

  • If you create an invitation: your email address and what you add to the invitation yourself, such as names, date, venue, texts and photos.
  • If you reply as a guest: your name, whether you are attending, anyone coming with you and, if you choose, dietary requirements, answers to the couple's own questions (for example whether you would like a seat on their bus) or a greeting. Your reply is shown to the couple who invited you.
  • If the couple uses personal links in Premium: the name on each personal invitation, the number of guests and any names the couple knows, even before the guests themselves have replied, as well as each person's reply. The name on the invitation may appear in the link address and in the preview when the link is shared in a chat. The couple can also note when a link was copied or sent. If the couple shows the seating plan in the invitation, we store when the party's table is first displayed. The couple can see which parties have had their table displayed. This is only visible to the couple and to whoever has that invitation's personal link, and is deleted in the same way as guest replies.
  • If we show you a message while you are signed in: whether you saw, closed or clicked it and, if the message is a question, your answer. This is linked to your account so you don't see the same message again.

Why

The data is used to provide the service: creating and showing the invitation, receiving replies and handling payment. We also use statistics on how the site is used to improve it. We use no advertising cookies, only those the site needs to work, such as for signing in.

We measure, for example, whether guest list and paste-list features are used, the number of personal links and whether an invitation is marked as sent. Measurement uses internal account and invitation IDs. Our own protected statistics can also associate an action with an internal recipient-row ID. Guest names, pasted text, greetings and private link codes are not sent to PostHog, which we use for product analytics. We do not use session recording for this measurement.

We sometimes show short messages on the site, to signed-in customers and sometimes to all visitors, for example about something new or a question about what you are missing. Answering is optional, and we only use the answers to make StoryInvite better. If you answer without being signed in, the answer is stored without a link to any account.

If a draft is saved to your account, either because you chose to save it or automatically while you edit signed in, we may send one email after three days without changes to help you return to it. If you have entered names, they may appear in the email subject and greeting. No other content from the draft is included in the email.

The day after your event, we may send one email asking how StoryInvite worked for you, unless you have already answered the question on the site. The email contains a personal link that only leads to the review and expires after a while. Answering is voluntary, and you decide whether anything you write may be shown on the site.

Who receives the data

We use providers for hosting, sign-in, payments and email, and they only process data on our behalf. If data is handled outside the EU, it is protected by the safeguards the law requires.

How long

We do not keep data longer than needed. Guest replies are deleted automatically a few months after the event, and the invitation no later than a year after the event. A draft you saved to your account but never published is deleted after six months without changes. New unpaid invitations with a reserved web address are saved for 180 days from the date the reservation was created. The deadline is shown with the invitation. If you don’t complete your purchase, the invitation, including its text and photos, is deleted and the web address becomes available again. A temporary copy used for email-link sign-in in another browser can only be retrieved for two hours and is then removed by the daily cleanup job. You can delete your account at any time under Account. This also removes the link between you and your answers to our messages.

Your rights

You can ask to see, correct or delete your data by writing to hello@storyinvite.se. You can also complain to the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (imy.se) or the supervisory authority where you live.
