EVENTVIDIA INC, doing business as EventVidia ("we", "us", or "our"), operates https://eventvidia.com. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our platform. By using EventVidia, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
1. Information We Collect
Information you provide directly:
- Account details: name, email address, profile photo
- Event information: event names, dates, locations, descriptions, checklists, notes and meeting notes (including the names you list as attending), photos you add (such as the couple’s portraits shown on every guest’s pass), and the crew and vendor names printed on badges, with any photos, logos or artwork you add to those badges (stored in our image storage and shown only on the badges you print)
- Guest information: names, email addresses, phone numbers, RSVP responses, and where a guest is staying if the organizer adds it (hotel, room, check-in and check-out dates, notes)
- Vendor information: business name, contact details, service categories, and the vendor quotes you record or import for an event (vendor, service, amount, status, contact and notes)
- Day-of contacts: the phone numbers and emails you add for your event’s vendors and performers, with their arrival and performance times, used only to send them that event’s reminders and your day-of messages (by email, or text outside 8 PM – 8 AM), and a record of what was sent
- Payment information: processed securely through Stripe — we do not store card numbers
- Tables & booths (show organizers): the room you draw for a show (its layout, colours, table numbers and prices) and any private notes you write on a table. Notes, single-table prices and blocked tables are shown only to you and your show team, never to buyers; buyers see only whether a table is available or taken, never why. If you choose “save this room”, we keep the layout and colours (not prices or notes) as a saved room that is private to you, even when it is linked to a venue listed on EventVidia; other organizers at the same venue cannot see it. You can delete a saved room at any time, and saved rooms are deleted with your account. When a buyer books a table we record which table their order holds, alongside their ticket order. A buyer picking a table without signing in gets a random holding code kept only in that browser tab; it identifies no one and expires with the hold. While any table is on hold we also keep a scrambled, one-way code made from the internet address it was picked from (never the address itself), only so one connection cannot hold a whole room; it is deleted with the hold.
- Payout setup (organizers and vendors): when you set up payouts, your identity details (such as name, date of birth, address and, where required, an ID document or tax number), your business details and your bank account are collected in a Stripe form shown on our page or on Stripe’s site. For payout accounts with no separate Stripe login, EventVidia is the party collecting these details for Stripe; they are typed straight into Stripe’s form and sent to Stripe, which uses them to verify your identity, meet financial regulations and pay you, under Stripe’s privacy policy. We do not store them: we keep only your Stripe account ID, whether payouts are switched on, and your bank’s name and last four digits; Stripe keeps the record of when you accepted its terms in that form. To protect your payouts we may ask you to sign in again before you set up or change your bank, and we keep a record of each bank change on your payout account (the date, the bank’s name and last four digits) and email you about it; that record is kept while your account is open and deleted with it. When Stripe needs more information from you, we tell you on your Payouts page and by email. If you are in India, these details are processed to provide the payouts you asked for, and your rights over them are set out in section 10. If you sell before connecting a bank, we use your email to tell you how much money is waiting for you (one email and one reminder before it is due); these are about your account, not marketing
- An organizer's card on file for show cancellation fees: kept by Stripe; we keep only the card type, last four digits and when they agreed. It stays on file until the organizer removes it, which they can do 90 days after their last ticketed show ends
- Communications: messages, support requests, feedback
- Ask EV conversations: what you ask EV, its replies, the changes it proposed or made and your approvals, the thumbs up or down you give, and any feature request you ask it to send us. If you talk to EV, your browser or device turns your speech into text (for example Google in Chrome, Apple in Safari) under that provider’s privacy terms; we receive the text, not the audio.
- Shop orders and bookings: what you bought, rented or booked, your delivery address and phone number when you choose delivery, the date you need a rental, and appointment details.
- Dietary and food preferences, where an organiser asks for them at registration — including allergies. Always optional, used only to give the organiser catering numbers, and visible to that organiser. Some laws treat allergy information as health data; we treat it that way regardless of where you are.
- Waiver and terms signatures: the name you type as your signature, your email and phone if given, your IP address, your browser, the time you signed, and an exact copy of the wording that was on screen. We keep the wording rather than a link to it, so that an organiser editing their waiver later cannot change what you are recorded as having agreed to.
- Documents a vendor sends an organiser — such as a certificate of insurance or a business licence. These may contain a business address, a policy number, and a signature. They are stored privately and are readable only by that vendor and the organiser they sent them to.
- Questions sent through a "Contact us" form on an event page: your name, email, phone if given, and your message. These are stored and forwarded to the organiser of that event, who replies to you directly.
- In-person (box office) card payments: when you tap a card, Apple Pay or Google Pay at an event's door or a vendor's booth, the card is read and processed by Stripe. EventVidia does not receive or store your card number; we keep the payment reference, the amount, the time, and the tickets or items it bought, so the sale can be admitted, paid out and refunded.
- Check-in records: when a ticket is scanned at a door, we record the time, the station name the door staff entered, and — where the organizer requires sign-in to scan — which member of the organizer's team scanned it. Organizers use this to run their door and resolve disputes.
- Text-message consent statements: before an organizer texts, calls or sends WhatsApp messages to people on their own list, they confirm those people agreed. We record which organizer confirmed it, for which event, the wording, the time, how many people it covered and the organizer's IP address, so it can be shown if a recipient later says they never agreed. We keep it for as long as we keep the event's message records.
Information collected automatically:
- Log data: IP address, browser type, pages visited, time spent
- Device information: operating system, device type, unique identifiers
- Usage data: features used, clicks, event creation and management activity
- Visit statistics: for each page view on our website or apps, the section of the site, the approximate location (country, state or region, and city, derived from your network connection), the kind of device (phone, tablet or computer), whether it was the website or our app, the site you came from, and whether you were signed in. We do not store your IP address or which account it was; a daily-changing code lets us count visitors without following anyone from one day to the next. Kept for 180 days.
- Search and AI crawlers: we count how often search engines and AI assistants' crawlers (for example Googlebot or OAI-SearchBot) fetch our public pages, by the crawler's name, the day and the section of the site. This is about automated programs, not people, and records no address, page path or device.
- The page you opened Ask EV from (its address, not its content), so EV can help with what is in front of you
- Cookies and similar tracking technologies (see Section 6)
Information from third parties:
- Authentication providers (Google, Apple) when you sign in via those services
- Payment processors (Stripe) for subscription and billing information
2. Device Permissions (Mobile App)
The EventVidia app for iOS and Android asks for the permissions below. Each one is requested only at the moment you use the feature that needs it, never at start-up, and you can refuse or withdraw any of them in your device settings without losing access to the rest of the app.
Contacts
- Why: so you can pick people from your address book when adding guests to an event, instead of typing every name, email address and phone number by hand.
- What we receive: only the contacts you actually select — their name, and their first email address and phone number. Contacts you do not select are never sent to us. We do not read your address book in the background, and we do not upload it in bulk.
- What we do with it: the selected details become guests on your event so we can send them your invitation and record their reply. They are treated exactly like guests you typed in yourself, and are covered by the same deletion rights in Section 7.
- What we never do: we do not sell your contacts, use them for advertising, build a social graph from them, or contact anyone you did not add to an event.
Camera and photo library
- Why: to take or choose a photo for an event cover, your profile, a vendor portfolio or inventory item, and to scan QR codes at the door when checking guests in.
- What we receive: only the individual photo you take or choose. We do not browse your photo library. QR scanning happens on your device — the camera image itself is never uploaded, only the code it contains.
Location, NFC and Bluetooth (organizers and vendors using Tap to Pay or a card reader)
- Why: Stripe, which processes in-person card payments, requires the device's location while a payment is taken (for fraud prevention and to meet card-network rules), uses the phone's NFC chip to read a tapped card, and uses Bluetooth to connect to a card reader. These are asked for only when an organizer or vendor takes a card payment in person.
- What we receive: EventVidia does not store your location; it is used by Stripe's software on the device during the payment, under Stripe's privacy policy. Card details read over NFC go to Stripe, not to EventVidia.
- If you decline: Tap to Pay cannot be used on that device; cash, comps and buyers paying on their own phone still work.
Notifications
- Why: to tell you about RSVPs, ticket sales and reminders for events you host or attend. Declining notifications does not limit anything else in the app.
If you withdraw a permission after granting it, information already saved to an event stays until you delete it — see Section 7, Your Rights, or delete your account entirely at eventvidia.com/delete-account.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Create and manage your account
- Provide, maintain, and improve our event planning services
- Process payments and manage your subscription
- Send invitations, notifications, and reminders on your behalf
- Connect you with vendors in our marketplace
- Answer your questions and carry out requests through Ask EV, our AI assistant — including looking up your own events, shows, orders and bookings for you
- Deliver shop orders (buying shipping labels and tracking parcels) and remind you of appointments
- Respond to your support requests and inquiries
- Send product updates, tips, and marketing communications, including news and upcoming events to people who bought tickets through EventVidia (you can opt out at checkout, from any of these emails, or by writing to us), and to guests, expo visitors and donors who tick the (always unticked) “Also email me event ideas and news from EventVidia” box when they RSVP, register or donate. A host’s guest or contact list is never added to EventVidia’s own mailing list; we record the words you agreed to and when, and you can unsubscribe from any of these emails
- Detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, or security issues
- Comply with legal obligations
- Analyse usage patterns to improve our platform
We will never sell your personal information to third parties for their own marketing purposes.
5. Data Storage & Security
Your data is stored on secure servers hosted by Vercel and Neon (PostgreSQL), located in the United States. We implement industry-standard security measures including:
- Encryption in transit (TLS/HTTPS) and at rest
- Access controls and authentication requirements for all team members
- Regular security reviews and vulnerability assessments
- Automatic backups of your event data
No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will delete your personal data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal or billing purposes. Ask EV conversations, including your ratings, are kept with your account so you can return to them, and are deleted when your account is deleted — even where other records oblige us to keep an anonymized account.
What deletion does not remove. Deleting your account deletes the events you hosted, and with them the waivers people signed for those events and any documents vendors sent you. It does not remove a waiver or set of terms you signed for someone else’s event. That record belongs to the organiser who ran it, not to us: it is their evidence of what you agreed to before attending, and removing it on your request would destroy their record of an event you took part in. The same applies to a question you sent an organiser through a contact form, which is theirs once it arrives.
Records we keep for this reason are kept for that purpose alone. They are not used to build a profile of you, are not used for marketing, and are not sold or shared beyond the organiser they belong to. If you want one removed, ask that organiser, or write to us at privacy@eventvidia.com and we will pass the request on.
7. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights:
- Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
- Correction: Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data
- Deletion: Request that we delete your personal data ("right to be forgotten")
- Portability: Receive your data in a machine-readable format
- Objection: Object to processing of your data for marketing purposes
- Restriction: Request that we limit how we process your data
To exercise any of these rights, email us at privacy@eventvidia.com. We will respond within 30 days.
You can delete your account at any time from Settings → Account → Delete Account. This will permanently remove all your events, guest lists, and personal data.
8. Children's Privacy
EventVidia is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us immediately at privacy@eventvidia.com and we will delete it promptly.
Jurisdiction-Specific Policies
9. United States — CCPA & CAN-SPAM
California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA / CPRA)
If you are a California resident, you have the following additional rights under the CCPA and its amendment, the CPRA:
- Right to Know: Request disclosure of the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, the sources, the business purpose, and the third parties with whom we share it.
- Right to Delete: Request deletion of your personal information, subject to certain exceptions (legal obligations, fraud prevention, etc.).
- Right to Correct: Request correction of inaccurate personal information.
- Right to Opt-Out: We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising. You therefore have no opt-out action required, but you may submit a request to confirm this.
- Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Data: We do not process sensitive personal information beyond what is necessary to provide the Service.
- Right to Non-Discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising your CCPA rights — you will receive the same quality of service regardless.
To submit a CCPA request, email privacy@eventvidia.com with subject line "CCPA Rights Request". We will respond within 45 days. We may ask you to verify your identity before processing the request.
In the past 12 months, we have collected the following categories of personal information:
- Identifiers (name, email, IP address)
- Commercial information (subscription plan, payment history)
- Internet or network activity (pages visited, features used)
- Professional or employment-related information (for corporate accounts)
We have not sold personal information in the past 12 months and have no intention to do so.
CAN-SPAM Act (Email Communications)
All marketing emails we send comply with the CAN-SPAM Act:
- We clearly identify ourselves as the sender in every email
- Subject lines accurately describe the email content — no misleading headers
- Every marketing email includes a clear, functional unsubscribe link
- We honour opt-out requests within 10 business days
- Our physical mailing address is included in all commercial emails
- A non-profit organisation, vendor or show host using EventVidia keeps its own lists of members, supporters or contacts (name, email, phone, categories) with a record of when and how each person agreed to email, text messages and WhatsApp messages from it. Each sees only its own lists; it can remove anyone, and you can ask it to remove you
- You can sign yourself up on an organisation’s, vendor’s or show host’s sign-up page (an EventVidia link they share). You choose email, texts and/or WhatsApp; we record what you ticked and when, add you to that one sender’s list only, and send one confirmation text if you chose texts — no further texts until you reply YES. Reply STOP at any time
- A wedding’s family tree holds the names and photos the couple, their planner or coordinator add of family members; it is seen only by the people working on that wedding, and removed with the event. Add someone’s photo only with their permission
- When you claim a gift card we ask you to confirm your mobile number with a code we text you, as part of claiming; if a claim is left waiting for that step, we send you one reminder email. We keep the number on your account and with the gift card, to allow one gift card per person; the code is stored only in scrambled form and deleted once used. We also record which code you claimed it with; EventVidia staff can see your name, email and where your gift card stands, to run the programme. The creator who shared the code is not shown who claimed it
- When a ticket order comes with an EventVidia credit, we email it to the address the tickets were sent to and keep that address with the credit, so that only the buyer can claim it. We record when it was claimed and by which account. The show’s host does not see who claimed a credit
- A vendor sees its customers (from its orders, bookings and client list) and a show host its ticket buyers, as lists inside its own account; buying something is not treated as agreeing to marketing texts
- An organisation, vendor or host can import people from its own Google Contacts. Google asks it to allow read-only access (the contacts.readonly permission); the contacts are read in its browser, the access is ended straight away, and only the people it ticks are saved to its list — we never store a Google token or the rest of the address book. EventVidia’s use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements: it is used only to add those people to that organisation’s list, never sold, never used for advertising, and never used to train AI models
- Organisers, vendors and non-profit organisations may only email people who agreed to hear from them: people who tick an (always unticked) “email me about future events” box on their form, or who are on a list the organiser has confirmed agreed to it. We keep when and how each person agreed, and an unsubscribe from one organiser stops all of that organiser’s promotional email to you
To unsubscribe from marketing emails, click "Unsubscribe" in any email footer, or email privacy@eventvidia.com. Note: transactional emails (account confirmations, event invitations you trigger) cannot be opted out of while your account is active.
COPPA (Children Under 13)
EventVidia does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years of age, in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). If we discover we have inadvertently collected such data, we will delete it immediately. Parents or guardians may contact us at privacy@eventvidia.com to request removal of a child's information.
