Privacy policy

The short version

This website has no cookies, no newsletter, no user accounts and no tracking. We don’t follow you around the web, and we don’t sell or rent anyone’s data.

We collect personal data only when you send it to us: through our request form for couples, our membership application for professionals, or by email or phone. We use it only to answer you, and we delete it after 12 months unless it becomes a membership.

When you contact a wedding professional, you do it directly, by email, phone, WhatsApp or through their website. Your message goes to them, not to us.

The only things this website keeps on your device are your shortlist (after you tap ♥) and your planning checklist ticks (after you tick a task). They stay in your browser and are never sent to us.

Who we are

Corfu Wedding Pro is run by Mirjan Gjergjevica, sole proprietorship, Alepou Shopping Centre, K12, 49100 Corfu, Greece (General Commercial Registry/ΓΕΜΗ 189322533000, tax number/ΑΦΜ 153507319). Email: info@corfuwedding.pro, phone: +30 697 357 9977. We are the data controller for this website. Full details are in our imprint.

Hosting and security

The website is hosted and protected by Cloudflare, Inc. To deliver pages and protect the site from attacks, Cloudflare necessarily processes technical data for a short time, such as your IP address and browser type. We don’t use this data to identify you.

• Legal basis: our legitimate interest in running a secure, working website (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
• Cloudflare’s role: it acts as our processor under its data processing addendum. Cloudflare is certified under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework, and its addendum also includes the EU standard contractual clauses for any transfer outside the EU. Our database is stored in Cloudflare’s Western Europe region.

Visitor statistics

The line at the bottom of each page (“page views in the last 30 days”) comes from our own counter: each time a page opens, we add 1 to that day’s total. We store only that one number per day: no page address, IP address, cookie or device information. Because of that, we can’t tell whether two page views came from the same person, which is why we call them page views, not visitors.

Clicks on contact buttons and profile views

When you open a professional’s profile, click a contact button on it, or save a professional to your shortlist, we record an anonymous count: the day, which professional, which action (for example “view”, “email” or “shortlist”) and which page. We don’t record who clicked. No IP address, cookie or device information is stored. We use these totals to show professionals how much interest their profile gets.

If a member professional opens their own profile from their private member page, the site remembers in that browser’s local storage which profile is theirs, so their own visits are not counted. It is not a cookie and is never sent to us.

Member professionals can also share links to each other’s profiles. When you follow one, we count it the same anonymous way (the day, which member shared it and which profile it leads to) and send you straight on to the profile. No cookie is set.

Your shortlist (♥)

When you tap ♥, the professional is saved in your browser’s local storage, on your own device. It is not a cookie, and the list is never sent to us: we can’t see who saved what. Only the anonymous count described above reaches us.

• Deleting it: use “Clear all” on the shortlist page, or clear this site’s data in your browser settings.
• Sharing it: if you use “Share the list”, the link contains only the web addresses of the professionals you saved. Anyone you send it to can open it.
• Legal basis: storing the list is strictly necessary for a feature you ask for by tapping ♥, so no consent banner is needed (Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive and Article 4(5) of Greek Law 3471/2006).

Your planning checklist

When you use the planning checklist, the tasks you tick, the wedding date you enter and the ceremony type you choose are saved in your browser’s local storage, so they are still there when you come back. Nothing is sent to us, and we don’t count or see your ticks.

• Deleting it: use “Reset” on the checklist, or clear this site’s data in your browser settings.
• Legal basis: the same as for the shortlist: strictly necessary for a feature you use, so no consent banner is needed.

When you contact a professional

The professionals listed here are independent businesses. When you email, call or message them, they receive your details and become responsible for them. Please read their own privacy information. WhatsApp and Instagram are services of Meta, and Meta’s terms apply when you use them.

When you ask us for help (couples)

If you use our request form, we receive what you type: your name, email address and, if you add them, where you live, your wedding date, number of guests, area, ceremony type, budget range, what you are looking for and your message. If you have saved professionals with ♥, the form also sends the web addresses of those professionals, and the form tells you when it does.

• What we do with it: we read it and reply by email with suggestions. We don’t add you to any mailing list and we don’t use it for marketing.
• Passing it to professionals: only if you tick the box that allows it. We then send your name, email address and request to up to three professionals who fit it, and they may contact you. Once they have it, they are responsible for it under their own privacy rules. Without the tick, your request stays with us.
• Where it is kept: in a database with our host, Cloudflare (see “Hosting and security”), and as an email in our inbox. Our inbox is a Google (Gmail) account: Google processes these emails for us and, for transfers outside the EU, is certified under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. Emails to info@corfuwedding.pro reach that inbox through Cloudflare Email Routing. We don’t store your IP address or device details with your request.
• How long: the database deletes requests automatically after 12 months. We delete the emails within the same period.
• Anonymous market report: we share yearly totals from requests with our member professionals, for example how many couples asked about September, came from Ireland or chose a budget range. These totals never include names, email addresses or messages, and a number is shown only when it is based on at least five requests, so no one can be picked out.
• Legal basis: steps you ask for before a possible contract and our legitimate interest in answering you (Article 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR). Passing your details to professionals is based on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you can withdraw at any time by emailing us; withdrawing doesn’t affect what was already sent.

Wedding professionals

If you apply through our membership form, or a professional gives us their details in person, by phone, email or WhatsApp, we keep: business name, contact person, category, location, email address, phone number, website or social media link and any message.

• What we do with it: we contact you about membership. If you become a member, we use it to run the membership: your profile, invoices, renewal reminders and the monthly report on your profile’s views and clicks.
• Your public profile: what appears on the site (name, description, contact buttons, photos) is what you agree with us. You can ask us to change or remove it at any time.
• Photos: we only publish photos with written permission from the person who took them, always with their name as credit, and we keep a record of that permission.
• How long: applications that don’t lead to a membership are deleted after 12 months. For members, we keep the details for as long as the membership lasts, and invoices for as long as Greek tax law requires.
• Legal basis: steps before a contract and the membership contract itself (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR), our legal obligations for invoices (Article 6(1)(c) GDPR) and, for contacting businesses we haven’t worked with before, our legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). Every first message includes a way to say “no thanks”, and we then stop.

When you email or call us

If you email or call us outside the forms, we use your details only to reply. We keep the correspondence for as long as needed to deal with it, and no longer than 12 months, unless it becomes a membership.

• Legal basis: our legitimate interest in answering you, or steps you ask for before a contract (Article 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR).

How the forms protect your data

• No cookies, and the forms load no third-party scripts (no reCAPTCHA). Spam is filtered with a hidden field instead.
• The forms are sent over an encrypted connection (HTTPS) and go only to us.
• Only Corfu Wedding Pro can read the submissions. We don’t sell, rent or share them, except as described above.

Fonts and embedded content

• Our fonts are stored on this website and load from our own domain, so no font service (such as Google Fonts) sees your visit.
• If we embed videos, they only load from YouTube after you click play. From that point, Google’s privacy policy applies.

Your rights

Whether you are a couple, a guest or a professional, you have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict the processing of your personal data, to object to processing and to data portability. To use these rights, email info@corfuwedding.pro.

You can also complain to the Hellenic Data Protection Authority (www.dpa.gr).

Changes

If we change how the site works, we will update this page and the date at the top.
