Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Wedding Harmony ("we," "our," or "us"). This privacy policy explains our data practices for our iOS mobile application ("App") available through the Apple App Store.

Simple Truth: We respect your privacy and collect minimal data necessary for app functionality. Your wedding details, guest lists, and seating charts are stored locally on your device or synced securely between partners.

This policy describes what data the App collects, how it's used, and your rights. Wedding Harmony is designed as a privacy-first wedding planning application.

2. Information We Collect

Wedding Harmony collects minimal information to provide its core functionality:

Data Stored Locally on Your Device:

• Wedding Details: Date, venue, and countdown information
• Guest Lists: Names, RSVP statuses, and dietary requirements
• Seating Charts: Table layouts and guest assignments
• Budget Data: Expenses, payments, and financial tracking
• Task Lists: Planning checklists and progress tracking

All of this data is stored exclusively on your device using iOS secure storage. If you choose to use the collaboration feature, data is synced securely between you and your partner using Apple's iCloud infrastructure or through a Wedding Harmony account.

Data We Collect:

• User Accounts: You may choose to create an account to sync your data across multiple devices. This requires an email address and password.
• No Personal Information: Beyond your account email, we don't collect names or phone numbers.
• No Usage Analytics: We don't track how you use the App or which features you access.
• No Location Data: We never access or collect your location.
• No Device Identifiers: We don't collect device IDs or hardware identifiers.
• No Third-Party Analytics: We don't use Google Analytics, Firebase, or any tracking services.

3. AI Assistant (Gemini)

Wedding Harmony includes an AI Wedding Assistant powered by Google's Gemini API:

• Data Transmission: Only the specific questions or prompts you type into the AI assistant are sent to Google for processing
• Anonymity: No personal identifiers (like your name or email) are sent with these prompts
• Data Usage: Google's privacy policy governs how they process this data. We do not store your AI conversations on our servers

4. Notification Permission

Wedding Harmony may request notification permission for:

• Planning Reminders: To remind you about upcoming tasks or deadlines

Notifications are:

• Scheduled locally on your device
• Completely optional
• Configurable and can be disabled at any time in iOS Settings

5. Third-Party Services

Wedding Harmony uses minimal third-party services. The only external interactions are with Google (for the AI assistant) and Apple's App Store/iCloud (for downloads and syncing), which are governed by their respective privacy policies.

We do not use:

• Advertising networks
• Analytics platforms (Google Analytics, Firebase, etc.)
• Social media integrations
• Crash reporting tools

6. Your Privacy Rights

Since your data is stored locally on your device or in your personal iCloud/Wedding Harmony account, you have complete control:

• Access: All your data is visible within the app
• Modification: Edit or update your wedding details at any time
• Deletion: Delete individual items within the app, or delete the entire app to remove all data

7. Children's Privacy

Wedding Harmony is rated 4+ on the App Store and is suitable for all ages. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13 years of age.

9. European Privacy Rights (GDPR)

For users in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, and Switzerland, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) provides specific rights.

Wedding Harmony is designed with privacy-by-design principles:

• Data Minimization: We collect only data necessary for app functionality
• Local Storage: All data remains on your device under your control
• No Data Processing: We don't process your data on remote servers beyond account synchronization
• Transparency: This policy clearly explains all data practices

Since we don't operate as a data controller for cloud-stored data beyond account management, most GDPR obligations don't apply. Your rights to access, modify, and delete data are exercised directly through the app interface.

10. Data Security

While we don't collect data on remote servers beyond account synchronization, we take security seriously:

• Local Device Security: Your data is protected by iOS built-in security features and Face ID/Touch ID if enabled
• No Data Breach Risk: Since we don't store user data remotely beyond account management, there's no risk of server-side data breaches
• Secure Coding: The app follows Apple's secure coding guidelines

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will:

• Update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy
• Post the new policy on our website
• For material changes, notify users through App updates

Our core commitment to local-only data storage and minimal data collection will not change.

12. Contact Information

If you have any questions, concerns, or feedback regarding this privacy policy or our privacy practices, please contact us:

We typically respond to inquiries within 48 hours.

13. Your Consent

By downloading and using Wedding Harmony, you consent to this privacy policy. Your use of the app involves local data storage on your device and optional cloud synchronization.

You can stop using the App at any time by deleting it from your device, which will remove all local data associated with the App including guest lists, seating charts, and planning data.
