4. Who We Share Data With

Between Users

Fairily is a two-sided marketplace. When a vendor applies to an event, the organizer can see the vendor's profile information and application details. When an organizer publishes an event, vendors and the public can see event details. This sharing is core to how the platform works.

Service Providers (Sub-processors)

We use the following third-party services to operate the platform:

All service providers are bound by data processing agreements and are only permitted to process your data for the purposes we specify.

Organizers may also use API keys to access platform data through additional third-party tools of their choosing. When they do, data accessed through the API is processed by the organizer's chosen service providers. Organizers are responsible for how they use data obtained through the API.

Legal Requirements

We may disclose your data if required to do so by law, or if we believe in good faith that such action is necessary to comply with legal proceedings, a court order, or a government request.

Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred to the new entity. We will notify you before your information is transferred and becomes subject to different privacy practices.

5. Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active and as needed to provide our services. Specifically:

  • Account data: retained while your account is active. Accounts inactive for 2 years or more may be flagged for deletion with advance notice.
  • Transaction records: retained for 7 years after the transaction date, as required by financial and tax regulations. Personal identifiers in these records are anonymized after the retention period.
  • Application records: retained for the life of the associated event plus 1 year, then anonymized.
  • Uploaded media: deleted when you remove them or when your account is deleted.

When data is no longer needed, it is either deleted or anonymized so that it can no longer be linked to you.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Rectification: Request correction of inaccurate data. You can also update most information directly through your account settings.

  • Data portability: Request a copy of your data in a machine-readable format.
  • Objection: Object to processing based on legitimate interest.
  • Withdraw consent: Where processing is based on consent (e.g., marketing emails), you may withdraw it at any time.

California residents have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including the right to know what personal information we collect, the right to delete personal information, and the right to opt-out of the sale of personal information.

7. International Data Transfers

Fairily is based in the United States. If you access our platform from outside the US, your data will be transferred to and processed in the United States.

For users in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission as the legal mechanism for these transfers. Our service providers who process data outside the EEA are also bound by appropriate transfer mechanisms.

8. Cookies

We use cookies solely for authentication and session management. These cookies are essential for keeping you logged in and ensuring the security of your account. We do not use cookies for advertising, tracking, or analytics purposes.

We do not share, sell, or otherwise distribute any data collected through cookies to third parties. If our use of cookies changes in the future, we will update this policy and provide a mechanism to manage your cookie preferences.

Our Service does not respond to "Do Not Track" browser signals. Because we do not engage in cross-site tracking or use advertising cookies, your browsing experience is the same regardless of this setting.

9. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data, including:

  • Encryption of data in transit (TLS/HTTPS)
  • Hashed storage of passwords and API keys
  • Role-based access controls
  • Regular security reviews

No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. If you become aware of a security vulnerability, please contact us immediately at admin@fairily.net.

In the event of a data breach that affects your personal data, we will notify affected users and relevant authorities as required by applicable law, including within 72 hours where required by GDPR.

10. Children's Privacy

Fairily is not directed at individuals under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

11. Third-Party Links

Our Service may contain links to third-party websites or services. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those external sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you by email or through a notice on the platform. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was last revised.
