Privacy Policy

GalaSnap — Wedding Guest Photos · Effective date: September 8, 2026

The short version: GalaSnap stores the photos your guests upload only for the duration of your event album, then deletes them automatically. There are no user accounts, no advertising, no analytics tracking, and no facial recognition. The event host stays in control and can delete the album — including every photo — at any time.

How GalaSnap works

An event host creates an event album in the GalaSnap app and shares a QR (Quick Response) code with guests. Guests open a web page in their browser — no app install, no sign-up — and upload photos to the album. Uploaded photos are stored on GalaSnap's cloud storage (provided by Cloudflare, Inc.) so the host and invited guests can view and download them during the album period.

Photos guests upload

Photos uploaded to an album are stored on our servers only for that album's retention period: 14 days on the free plan, 6 months with a Starter Event Pass, and 2 years with a Pro Event Pass. When the period ends, the photos are deleted automatically from our storage. The host can also delete individual photos or the entire event — including all of its photos — at any time from the app, and that deletion takes effect on our servers.

Albums are not public and cannot be found by search. A gallery can only be opened by the host or by someone who received the album's link or QR code from the host — the link uses a long random token that cannot be guessed. We do not run facial recognition or any content analysis on photos, and we never use uploaded photos for advertising, model training, or any purpose other than showing them in the album they were uploaded to.

Guest nicknames

Guests may optionally enter a display nickname when uploading, so photos can show who shared them. The nickname is stored with the photo, is visible only inside that album, and is deleted together with the album's photos. Guests do not create accounts and we do not ask for email addresses, phone numbers, or any other contact details.

Event hosts

Hosts do not create accounts either. The key that proves ownership of an event is generated on the host's device and stored in the device keychain (synced through the host's own iCloud Keychain), along with a one-time recovery code shown in the app. We do not receive the host's name, email address, or contacts.

Roles under GDPR

For guests in the European Union, the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) applies as follows: the event host who creates the album and invites guests acts as the data controller, and GalaSnap acts as a data processor storing photos on the host's behalf. Guests who want a photo of themselves removed should contact the event host, who can delete it in the app; you can also contact us at the address below and we will assist.

What we do not collect

GalaSnap has no analytics or tracking SDKs (Software Development Kits), no advertising, no facial recognition, and no access to your contacts or precise location. We do not collect usage or diagnostic data, and we never read or store visitors' IP addresses. The only records we keep are the ones the service needs to run — an album's photo count and storage usage. Our hosting provider (Cloudflare) produces automatic request logs that expire within days; we use them only to keep the service running and never to identify, profile, or track anyone.

Purchases

Event Passes are one-time purchases processed by Apple through the App Store; we never see your payment details. To attribute a purchase to the right event, the app uses RevenueCat, a purchase-management service. RevenueCat receives an anonymous app-generated identifier and App Store purchase receipt information — not your name, email address, or photos. See the RevenueCat privacy policy for details.

Data retention and deletion

In summary: photos and nicknames live on our servers for the album's plan period and are deleted automatically when it ends; the host can delete any photo or the whole event earlier at any time; and deleting an event removes its photos from our storage. Photos that the host or guests downloaded to their own devices are managed by them.

Children's privacy

GalaSnap is made for event hosts and their guests and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children; if you believe a child's photo was uploaded to an album and should be removed, contact the event host or reach us at the address below.

Changes to this policy

If we change how GalaSnap handles data, we will update this page and revise the effective date above before the change takes effect.
