Privacy Policy
Da Wedding is a private app for one wedding at a time. Only the people who join a wedding can see what is shared in it. This policy explains what information the app collects, why, who can see it, and how you can delete it.
Da Wedding is operated by Shivanshu Mishra ("we", "us"). Contact: support@acceleret.com.
Testing period
Da Wedding is in closed testing, so features may change. Your information is stored on our live servers. Our database is backed up every day; photos and videos are not separately backed up (see "How long we keep it").
What we collect
- Your phone number. You sign in with your phone number. Google Firebase Authentication sends and checks the one-time code; we store your number and a Firebase user ID to recognise your account.
- Your wedding profile. Your display name and anything else you choose to add: your relation to the couple, city, a short bio, an Instagram handle, a profile photo and which side you're on (bride's, groom's or both).
- Wedding details. If you create a wedding: the couple's names, city, venue, dates, hashtag, welcome message and the list of functions (for example Mehendi or Sangeet).
- What you share. Photos, videos (including their sound), posts, reels, stories, captions, comments, @mentions and the people you tag.
- How you use the app. Likes, bookmarks (saved posts), which stories you've viewed, people you've blocked, and searches within your wedding's guest list.
- Messages. When messaging is available: direct and group messages, reactions and whether they've been read.
- Notifications. When notifications are available: a push token and installation ID for your device, its platform and the app version, so we can send you notifications.
- Technical information. Our server records each request's IP address, time and address (URL), which can include search text or an invite code. Firebase Authentication collects your IP address and device/app information and may run Google Play Integrity or reCAPTCHA checks, to prevent abuse at sign-in.
Photos are re-encoded before upload, which removes location data embedded in them. Videos are uploaded as recorded, and some phones store the recording location inside the video file.
What we don't do
- No advertising, no advertising ID, no analytics or tracking SDKs, no location permission.
- We don't sell your information or share it with anyone for their own marketing.
- Only the people in your wedding can see its content. Nothing is public, and nobody outside the wedding can find it.
Permissions the app asks for
- Camera and microphone: only when you open the in-app camera, to take a photo or record a clip. If you refuse the microphone, clips record without sound.
- Notifications: when that feature arrives, so you can hear about messages and activity in your wedding.
- You choose photos and videos with your phone's photo picker, so the app never has access to your whole gallery. Photos you save from the app go into your own gallery with the wedding's watermark; on iPhone, the first save asks permission to add to your photos.
Why we use it
- To run the app: sign you in, show your wedding to its members, deliver posts, stories, comments, messages and notifications.
- To keep it safe: prevent abuse at sign-in, enforce blocks, and handle reports.
- To fix problems: server logs help us find faults.
We process your information to provide the service you asked for, and on the basis of your consent when you sign up. You can withdraw consent by deleting your account.
Who can see it
- Members of your wedding see your wedding profile and what you share there. People you block can't see your content.
- Service providers process it for us under their own terms: Google Firebase (sign-in and push notifications) and our hosting provider DigitalOcean, LLC, whose servers and managed databases for Da Wedding are in its Bangalore, India data centre.
- Authorities, if the law requires us to disclose it.
Security
Everything between the app and our server travels over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Media files are never public: each request is checked against wedding membership.
How long we keep it
- Your profile and content: while your account exists, or until you or the wedding's organisers remove it.
- Stories stop being visible after 24 hours; the files are kept until the account is deleted.
- Server logs: 30 days.
- Backups: our database (your profile, posts, comments and other records) is backed up daily and can be restored to any point in the last 7 days. A record you delete leaves the live database straight away and drops out of the backups within 7 days. Photos and videos are stored on our server's disk and are not separately backed up. A photo or video you delete stops being visible to anyone straight away; the file itself is removed when you delete your account, or sooner if you ask us at support@acceleret.com.
Deleting your account
You can ask us to delete your account and your data at any time. See how to delete your account for the steps and exactly what is deleted.
Your rights
You can ask to see, correct or delete your personal information, and complain to us about how we handle it. You can edit your profile in the app. For anything else, write to support@acceleret.com. We reply within 30 days. Our grievance contact is Shivanshu Mishra at the same address.
Children
Da Wedding is for people aged 18 and over. We don't knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has an account, contact us and we'll delete it.
Changes
If we change this policy we'll update the date above and, for significant changes, tell you in the app.
