Privacy policy

Last updated: 24 August 2026

This policy describes how we process personal data on fest-appen.dk — the marketing website. It covers data collected via the demo and contact form, analytics cookies, and web server logs.

1. Data controller

If you have questions about this policy or want to exercise your rights, please contact us at the address above.

2. Demo and contact form

When you fill in the form (typically to book a free demo), we collect: name, email address, optionally phone number, your preferred guest-page address (the short name before .fest-appen.dk — required for a demo), whether you want a free trial page, and an optional message.

We use this data to respond to your request, check whether a preferred address is available, set up a trial guest page (when you asked for one – the form is demo-first), and assess whether fest-appen.dk is a fit for your event. Filling in a preferred address does not create an account or a guest page — that only happens after we agree to set one up. We do not use the data for marketing unless you separately request this.

• Legal basis: GDPR Article 6(1)(b) — processing necessary to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract.
• Retention: Enquiries are kept for up to 2 years after the last exchange, then deleted.
• Processor: The notification email is sent via Resend, Inc. (USA) under a data processing agreement and EU Standard Contractual Clauses.
