Privacy Policy

What we collect when you host or respond to an event, who can see it, and the choices you have.

Draft

This is a working draft pending legal review. It describes how beMYN is intended to work and may change before it is finalised.

1. The short version

  • We collect what we need to run invitations, RSVPs, and tickets: your account details, the events you create, your responses, and your ticket orders.
  • Hosts see who responded to their events. You control what you share.
  • Card payments are handled by Stripe. Your card details never reach beMYN.
  • We do not sell your personal information.

2. Information we collect

  • Account information: your name, email address, and profile photo, including what Google shares if you sign in with Google.
  • Event information: titles, dates, locations, descriptions, cover images, capacity, and other settings hosts add.
  • RSVP information: your response, the names of any guests you bring, and your answers to a host's questions.
  • Ticket orders: your name, email address, the tickets you bought or claimed, the amounts paid and refunded, and the order's status. Payments are processed by Stripe; your card details go directly to Stripe and never reach beMYN.
  • Payout information for hosts who sell tickets: your Stripe account ID and whether it can accept payments and payouts. Stripe collects and holds the identity and bank details it needs; we do not store them.
  • Technical information: basic logs such as IP address, browser type, and pages requested, which help us keep the Service secure and working.

3. How we use information

  • To provide the Service: show invites, record RSVPs, issue tickets, process refunds, pay hosts, and let hosts manage their guests.
  • To keep your account secure and prevent abuse.
  • To understand and improve how beMYN works.
  • To contact you about your account or important changes to the Service.

4. What other people can see

An event's hosts and co-hosts can see each guest's name, email address, response, plus-ones, and answers. For ticketed events, the event owner and co-hosts who manage guests can also see each order: the buyer's name and email address, the tickets, and the amounts paid and refunded. Depending on the host's settings, other guests may see your name and photo under Who's going. Anyone with a link to a public or unlisted event can see its details.

5. How we share information

We share information with service providers that help us run beMYN, for example Google Firebase for sign-in, data storage, and file hosting, Unsplash when you pick a cover photo, and Stripe to process ticket payments, refunds, and host payouts. Stripe handles payment information under its own privacy policy. They may only use it to provide services to us. We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect the safety of our users.

6. Cookies and local storage

We use a secure, HTTP-only session cookie to keep you signed in. Your theme preference is saved in your browser's local storage. We do not use advertising cookies.

7. How long we keep information

We keep your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. Events and RSVPs remain available to their hosts until they are deleted. We keep records of ticket orders and payments for as long as the law requires, even if you delete your account. When you ask us to delete your account, we delete or anonymise your personal information unless we must keep it for legal reasons.

8. Your choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal information, or to object to certain uses of it. To make a request, email us from the address on your account.

9. Security

We use industry-standard safeguards, including encrypted connections and access controls, to protect your information. No online service can be completely secure, so please use a strong, unique password.

10. Children

beMYN is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.

11. International transfers

Our providers may process information in countries other than yours. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for those transfers.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will change the date at the top of this page and, for material changes, let you know in the app or by email.
